Balls for rollers: a part 2!
Well here, you already know, where and for how many it is possible to get rollers, but to go for a drive have not learnt yet and at all do not represent, with what to begin? Today we will study some training movements and we will glance there where all other scooters of Chelyabinsk go for a drive.
With what to begin? First, there are some firm rules without which far you will not leave. Literally. Rules simple, but essentially help to save up nervous system and new rollers!
The very first and hardly probable not the most important thing: always dress protection at driving on rollers! Believe to me, it not so bulky and inconvenient detail of your walks, and is better to go for a drive in it, than then to examine bruises on the knees, the nails broken at falling and grazes on elbows! The most necessary – to dress kneecaps and protection on hands. Protection will help you to feel more confident at movement.
The roller boot should adjoin densely to a foot, not dangle, but also not press, then will go conveniently. It is necessary not only to fasten laces strong, but also to clean their ends that they have not got to wheels. To fall very painfully if the untied lace suddenly gets under castors of your rollers.
Knees always need to be held hardly bent, and the case - inclined forward, and one foot on a half-roller ahead of another. Such position allows to arrange correctly the centre of gravity without заваливания and overturning back, and also quickly to react to unexpected turns and situations or hit of any subjects under wheels of rollers. Going for a drive on rollers, and, especially, using them as means of transportation, it is necessary to be ready to that on a way there are sometimes unexpected obstacles.
The main fear of a beginning scooter – fear of falling. Also it is necessary to get rid of it first of all as it stirs to fast mastering by driving technics. Protection which in any case will soften falling can help with it. Children when study to go, too fall! But there and then rise and move further. Than you are worse? Forward!
Following rule: supervise the speed, especially at driving from a hill. And it is better in general from it, from a hill, do not go, you will not learn yet it to do.
Never go for a drive on rollers on pools and sand! It simply will kill bearings in the fads, and all pleasure from driving will be gone.
Wet asphalt – slippery asphalt! At driving on wet asphalt (not to confuse to pools on which in general it is impossible to go for a drive) feet will slip, part in the parties. Here very important as much as possible to dump speed and accurately to move the centre of gravity from one foot on another.
Correct falling is a falling forward! In this case always there is a possibility to expose a hand forward, that will soften falling. Falling is very dangerous to a back and a nape back. A brain concussion, whether you know, event not too pleasant... By the way, at falling forward blow will be softened with protection – gloves and kneecaps.
Cautiously – children! It too needs to be considered: they can be absolutely unpredictable and even to jump under wheels so them to go round it is necessary with limiting care. Cars, pedestrians, bicyclists – too participants of traffic! The main thing, in advance to expect a trajectory of the movement not to face anybody from set forth above, after all speed of movement and speed of maneuver at all different (especially at beginning scooters!), bicyclists besides are in the habit to brake very sharply so it is cautious. Well here, we have discussed rules, it is a high time to recollect those exercises which will help you to rise confidently on rollers.
Let's begin with the simple:
Exercise «circulation on rollers»
It is looked not so effectively but so easier to begin movement, for the first time having risen on rollers. Make a step – and you will begin movement, rollers already slide. It is not necessary to be dispersed quickly, the most important thing – to catch balance. A problem: to tear off serially feet from the earth and to rearrange them; thus as it is possible to slide longer on each foot.
Important: the most important difference of movement on rollers from circulation on foot that in the second case you make a start мыском, and in the first – all four wheels.
Typical errors: never make a start only a forward wheel! Remember about a correct rack: a constant inclination forward and the feet bent in knees.
Exercise «a ski course»
This exercise is directed exclusively on accustoming to rollers. Feet on width of shoulders also move strictly in parallel each other. The right foot goes forward, left back, then on the contrary. Unlike a classical ski course here it is not necessary to tear off a heel from the asphalt, on the contrary all wheels of a roller should concern a surface always!
Exercise does not mean pushing away and a set of speed, simply, having sped up, unroll feet forward-back. In 10 minutes you will feel, it becomes how much easier to unroll rollers, and will get the confidence necessary for development of more difficult elements.
The problem before you costs the following: gradually increase distance between feet, each time withdrawing one foot further forward, and another further back. As it is necessary to increase speed of movement of feet.
Important: the centre of gravity is not displaced towards one of feet, and constantly is strictly in the middle. Feet should move in parallel!
Exercise "snake"
Place small subjects, type банок from under Coca-Cola, on one line on distance approximately one and a half metres from each other. Take small dispersal and start them to go round. The original slalom will turn out.
Problem: having begun with position «feet on width of shoulders», gradually pull together them, and work as the case. As you will accustom – increase speed. For complication it is possible to put cups on metre distance from each other.
Important: not tearing off forward wheels of rollers from asphalt, slightly transfer weight of a body on back wheels of rollers. Hold feet together.
Typical errors: do not go for a drive on direct feet! Bend feet in knees and incline the case forward – so will maneuver easier.
Exercise "labyrinth"
This same, as "snake", only place banks not on one line, and on all platform on distance 2-3х metres from each other. Go for a drive, trying constantly them to go round.
Problem: avoid to go on a straight line, try to maneuver and turn all time.
Important: to plan a certain route of passage of "labyrinth". And that you will leave not there.
Where to practise?
Here that advise scooters «with the experience». Julia Nikolich, 25 years: « If it is fair, on a city to go for a drive enough проблемно: whatever were heaped up the rollers, but the broken asphalt, gravel and not asphalted district do not promote comfort. Besides, for example, to pass with северка in the centre, it is necessary to overcome a number of the obstacles connected with a relief: a city after all at us hilly enough – descent and lifting from automobile school to Shopping centre. Or from the Victory prospectus to теплотеху... The Most convenient place, in my opinion, concrete road which begins from monument Курчатову and passes on territory of a city pine forest. One branch goes to обкомовским to summer residences (by horse school "Harmony" and crosses Khudyakov's street), its other branch leaves to settlement the Shershnevsky open-cast mine, there still runners are engaged also bicyclists. Equal enough asphalt, fresh air and not so is a lot of to people. To go for a drive there those who only studies (from promptings love especially, what there is nobody to hesitate to fall). It is a lot of parents with children. Someone, for example, on rollers reaches to an open-cast mine – then to bathe, have a rest. Most of all scooters-fans goes on «обкомовской» to a branch because it more brisk, and Shershnevsky is more deserted and consequently there in the evening the people go for a drive – wood nevertheless a little, everyone happens. Other very popular place (especially among youth) – the Revolution area. There and at people to look it is possible, and to show. Besides, there it is possible to get acquainted with people large quantity. Naturally we all it speak about usual, running rollers. The rigid fads (for extreme driving) demand a suitable relief and obstacles. But such places in Chelyabinsk are not present. I know, that go for a drive about monument Курчатову, but special constructions I did not see. Recently was in Novosibirsk so there the whole huge platform with special obstacles is ».
To a word speaking if you have not had time to buy yet the roller fads, you can quite hire them in following places: a recreation centre "Flight" (near to monument Курчатову, street of the Sleepyhead of the Curve, 81) – 60 roubles at o'clock, park of Pushkin – 80 roubles at o'clock, park of Gagarin – 90 roubles at an o'clock.
So where to develop the skills of art of driving on rollers, solve itself. In any case I wish your of good luck, a fair wind and firm asphalt... Under rollers!
