Tips For Skating; Putting Skates On - Crivit 306978 Notice D'utilisation

Tips for skating

Note: We recommend skating in skate
parks, as well as a skating course with
a teacher.
Initial training
Starting position:
Feet shoulder-width, bend your knees slightly to
prevent falling backwards.
Speeding up:
Start with small steps, as a beginner, keeping
your feet pointed to the front at an angle.
Rolling:
If you take a few initial steps, you'll have enough
momentum to place both skates side by side and
roll. Bend your knees slightly when doing this.
Fall technique
Important! Practice falling on your protective
gear first without inline skates, on a soft surface.
Always try to steer falls forwards, never back-
wards! Let yourself fall onto the knee guards.
Then brace yourself with elbow and hand
guards. Spread your fingers while dong this, to
prevent injuries.
Mastering bends
At low speeds:
Spread your weight in the same way as when
you ride a bicycle. Spread our weight to your
left foot for a left bend, and on your right foot for
a right bend.
At high speeds:
Cross over in the same way as ice-skating
(Fig. B).
Braking techniques
Note: Practice various braking tech-
niques on an even surface, with no traf-
fic or pedestrians. Prevent falls until you
have mastered the braking techniques.
Heel braking technique (Fig. C):
If your inline skates are equipped with brakes,
ensure that you use them. Raise the tip of the
skate on which the brake is mounted, lightly
apply and press the brake to the ground.
Shift your weight slightly forward and bend your
knees.

The braking effect can be enhanced if you bend
your knees more and move your weight further
forward while at the same time increasing the
pressure on your braking skate.
T-Brake (Fig. D):
If your inline skates are not equipped with a
brake or you have dismounted the brake, we
recommend the use of the "T-Stop-Technology"
- however, this is only suitable for advanced skat-
ers! When using the "T-Stop technology", you
shift your entire weight on one foot. Now move
the other foot behind the first one and place it
behind it at right angles.
Then shift your weight from the front to the inside
of the rollers of your rear skate and brake with
increasing pressure.

Putting skates on

Preparing for tightening from the
factory setting
Important!
Make sure that your inline skates fit
properly/correctly. The outer boot
should not deform when the quick-re-
lease fastener is closed. Don't close the
quick-release fastener with force.
1. Push in the pressure slide (1) of the quick-re-
lease fastener (2) in the direction of the arrow
and open the quick-release fastener (see
Fig. E).
2. Press the latch (4) and pull the ratchet strap
(5) out of the opening of the latch (see fig. F).
3. Open the Velcro tongue-fastener (6) (Fig. G).
4. Set the slider of the quick-release fastener (7)
to OPEN and loosen the quick-release fasten-
er (Fig. H).
5. Put on the inline skates with the help of the
dressing aid (8) (Fig. I).
6. Pull the shoelaces (3) out from behind the
flap and pull them tightly upwards (Fig. J).
While doing this, pull on each shoelace, (3)
interchanging.
7. Lock the speed-lacing system fastener (7) by
sliding the speed lacing system lock slider to
CLOSE (Fig. K).
8. Tie a loop from both ends of the laces and put
it back behind the flap.
