How were the first ice skates made?
The first skates were deer-skin leather straps with long, bone blades that could bee tied to the bottom of a shoe. As they evolved to wood, people began to use them more for recreation than traveling and moving things easier over the ice. The blades were shortened down with a toe pick and boot added. "Speedskates" which were essentially the first kind of skate, are still used. Metal and plastic have taken over the fine wood and leather boots that are almost impossible to find. Figure skates have not evolved as much as speedskates, and hockey skates are more recent. They were made of wood, with fitted boots, and are now large and built for tough support.
What is faster roller blades or roller skates?
I've done both ice skating ad roller skating. I enjoyed ice skating but I wanted expand myself I bought a good fitting pair of roller skates! I found body position was every important. In my opinion the Biggest difference between ice and roller skating are "edges"! Ice skates have one blade on each boot--the ice blade is very narrow--but is still has an inside and a outside edge Roller skates have four wheels and each wheel has an inside and outside edge BUT the edges are 3/4" apart from each other!! When I was ice skating we didn't have inside ice rinks! I had a problem with edges in completion---but I finally found how to REALLY master theoss edges!!!
