Understand Inline Skate Frame
Posted by Adam Choong on
Skate Frame
Most common are plastic frames, aluminium frames and extruded aluminium frames. Lets now decide which frame is best for you.
Aluminium Frame
- More rigid. Allowing better power transfer from boot to wheels.
- More durable. Metal will not bend as much under pressure and weight
Extruded Aluminium Frame
- Extruded Frame is a reinforced one piece frame increasing rigidness for an even more powerful skate experience
- Highly customizable
Plastic Frame
- Lightweight
- Plastic bends more, thus under weight, it keeps the user lower to the ground
- Easier to control since the power transfer is lower
Below is a generic chart to help you decide base on the user's characteristics:
Plastic | Extruded Aluminium | Aluminium |
