5 Ideas That Will Make You Think About Skateboarding

By James Sagehorn


To perform at the highest level of any sport, it's necessary that you have the right footwear. Certainly overall skill is the most important factor, but apparel is important as well. The shoes you choose will influence your performance in any sport, but skateboarding in particular demands excellent trainers. If you're skateboarding, your feet will control all of your movements. You won't be able to skate well in standard tennis shoes; you're going to need skateboarding trainers if you want to succeed.

Skate shoes are different than tennis shoes, and you'll want to be careful when choosing the right set of shoes for you. Grip is probably the most vital feature in a shoe. Remember that when you're skating, your very health depends on your shoes being able to effectively grip the skateboard. The sole is what will determine a shoe's grip. To achieve a good grip, you'll need a sole that is flat and broad. Polyurethane, rubber, suede, and leather are all possible materials for the sole of a skateboarding shoe. The important thing here is to use a skateboarding shoe that you're confident and comfortable with.

You'll also want to make sure that the a skating trainer is flexible and comfortable. Uncomfortable or poorly designed trainers can cause sores to form on your feet. Skating is all about control. If you have a good skating shoe, you'll have the support you need to be successful. Don't take chances with skating shoes; you'll skate better if you feel supported and stable.

One of the most important features to look for in a set of skating trainers is durability. Skating isn't easy on shoes, so poorly made shoes can wear out quickly. If your shoes wear out prematurely, you'll be stuck purchasing another pair sooner than you would like. A shoe that is single stitched is not likely to be durable. A double or triple stitched trainer will be much stronger and will hold up better over time. The laces in particular are worth taking a second look at. Often, the laces are the first part of a skateboarding trainer to wear out. Because of the stress that they are under, laces often have to be replaced; you'll want to find a pair of skateboarding shoes with durable, protected laces.

The best skateboarding trainers are also flexible. Remember that more flexibility means more control and better performance. When you're looking at skateboarding trainers, you should also think about the depth of the sole pattern. Remember that grip is important, so with a deep pattern, your board grip will be improved.
