4 things to pack in your skate bag...
1. Tools 🛠️
Sometimes things come loose! Get yourself a skate tool (they cost less than a tenner) and always make sure it's in your kit bag.
2. Spare socks 🧦
Especially important in summer when you've got your sandals on! Trust us, skating in bare feet is NASTY. Always put clean socks on before you put your skates on and you'll keep your boots fresher for longer.
3. Pads ⛑️
When you're learning to roller skate knee pads and wrist guards are your best friends. They take the fear out of falling and protect your joints.
4. BOTH skates 🛼🛼
True story! This really happened to someone in class once. Make sure they are both in there.
