all the Dos and Don’ts in the Roller Skating Disco.
Whether a roller disco in Hamburg or a roller disco in Munich, the trend is reviving all over the country. Originally, the first roller discos were founded in the USA between 1970 and 1980. People rolled over the roller skating rink and danced to easy-to-dance sounds, just like in a normal disco. Only on eight wheels. Maybe you have already been to a roller skating disco? A simple idea has changed the conventional disco. And the concept is catching on. In the past as well as today. There are suitable events on all continents. Not only enthusiastic dancers dare to get on the rollers. Also the accomplished skaters and many beginners like to celebrate in such a disco.
At that time, the disco music of the seventies was played up and down. Those days are long gone. Nevertheless, not every song is suitable for dancers on four or eight reels. A fast basic tempo with a high beat is always important. Riding on rollers, after all, you are much faster than normal dancing. You are also more agile on roller skates. In many cases, current pop, rock or even house music is played today. Some events are also divided into appropriate times or lanes. As you know from the disco different floors, there are these in the roller skates disco as well. Also, sometimes the musical style is changed by the day. At some events, like the Roller Discos in NRW or the Roller Discos in Cologne, there are many different theme nights. So you can find the right music for your taste. Otherwise you can let off steam under the lights of the disco ball. But also watch out for other dancers. A roller skates disco is not a marathon. You don’t want to cause accidents and collisions on the dance floor. Of course, you don’t have to be able to do any freestyle or amazing tricks. Many beginners just roll a few big loops at the beginning. Depending on your mood. No matter what level you ride, on the dance floor of the roller skates disco fun and good humor is guaranteed.
You might be thinking: Equipment? Of course my roller skates! But that’s not quite it. Whether you want to wear a helmet or pads, you can decide for yourself. It makes sense in any case, even if it is not mandatory. For the right disco feeling, of course, the right outfit must not be missing. Pay special attention to your pants. If the fabric is too tight or the pants too tight, you can’t ride properly. You need a lot of mobility in your legs. However, there are basically no restrictions for the rest of your outfit. For your disco evening on roller skates, there are even matching roller skates. They are colorful and eye-catching. Matching disco scooters for adults make you the eye-catcher of the evening. Already for little money you can get a real eye-catcher as a roller skate. Of course, you can also use your normal roller skates or inline skates. Just as you like it.
Have you got a taste for it? Just now where roller skating is back on everyone’s lips, many disco evenings, especially the roller discos in Berlin, take place regularly again. You don’t really have to pay much attention and should enjoy the evening to the fullest. If you do not have your own roller skates, the organizers usually lend roller skates. There are often almost all sizes in stock. In any case, start with a careful lap around the floor. This is especially true if you have borrowed skates. You can ultimately neither the foreign shoes, nor the floor properly estimate. Otherwise, you can let off steam. But remember: you’re not on the bumper cars or speed skating. Pay attention to the other dancers and avoid collisions. If you adapt your tempo to the music, nothing should happen. The motto “more is more” clearly applies to your outfit. In the roller disco it may be in any case a little more colorful and flashy. Just like the matching disco scooters for adults. For a short break from the roller rink, there is often a drinks stand – Here, of course, the motto is: “Less is more”. Use the break at the edge of the roller skating rink and learn a few tricks from other riders. So you improve your skills for the roller rink in the next park or the upcoming disco evening in the roller disco nearby.
