Skating
Skating in the Nils Group's range is a whole world of wheel (and skate) movement - from a child's first steps on a scooter, to recreational skate rides, to slalom, skateboarding and faster fitness riding. If you're wondering what skating is, the simplest way to put it is: it's all forms of rollerblading, roller skates, scooters, skateboards and inline skates that have one thing in common - the fun of movement and freedom.
In the Skating category, you will find complete skating equipment for the private user: inline skates, scooters, skateboards, roller blades, children's equipment and skating accessories (helmets, protectors). It's a base from which you can easily build a set for yourself, a child or the whole family.

What is skating - in practice?
The question "what is skating" most often arises when someone is looking for a child's first rollerblades or scooter. In practice, it is simply an umbrella term for a whole group of activities involving riding on:
- inline skates,
- roller skates,
- scooters,
- skateboards,
- skates and 2in1/4in1 models.
Skating combines different forms of movement, but the goal is the same: better fitness, balance, coordination and... fun. So instead of 'going for a run', you can just hop on your inline skates, grab a scooter or pick up a skateboard and gain steps, burning calories with something that connotes fun rather than training.
At Skating Nils Group, you'll find skating equipment to suit different levels - from sets for a five-year-old to scooters and inline skates for adults who are getting back into riding after years away.
Skating equipment for the whole family
Well-chosen skating equipment allows everyone in the household to find 'their' mode of transport:
- the child starts with the RB138 NILS FUN cross-country bike or the HLB1310 LED scooter,
- an older child switches to inline skates or the NQ0187 LED RAINBOW,
- a teenager opts for the NA13810 TWIST leisure skates or a skateboard,
- an adult chooses the HM181T city scooter or fitness inline skates.
This is complemented by helmets and protectors, such as MTW001-1 KASK GREY, so that skating remains a pleasure and not a series of unnecessary injuries.

When choosing equipment in the Skating category, it is worth going through a few simple steps:
1. skill level and purpose

FAQ - Skating and skating equipment.
- What is skating in Nils Group terms?
Skating is all forms of inline skates, roller skates, scooters, skateboards and inline skates, available in the Skating category. It ranges from a child's first attempts on a scooter to recreational adult training on roller skates or long distance rides on a city scooter. - What skating equipment should I choose for a complete start?
For a child, a set like the NA0189 MOONBEAM (inline skates + protectors) or the HLB1310 LED 3-wheel scooter is a great start. Adults and teenagers can start with the NA13810 TWIST recreational skates or the HM181T city scooter - stable, versatile solutions. - Is skating just a summer activity?
No. In the summer you use inline skates, roller skates, a scooter and a skateboard, and in the winter you can move onto the ice by choosing skates or 2-in-1/4-in-1 models such as the NH10905 4-in-1. This way, skating can be a year-round habit and not just 'fun for the summer'. - What accessories are essential for skating equipment?
The minimum is a skate helmet (e.g. MTW001-1) and a set of wrist, elbow and knee pads, available in the Skating Accessories section. For children and beginner adults, this is a must-have for any kit, which realistically reduces the consequences of first falls. - Is skating equipment from the Nils Group only suitable for children?
No - the range is aimed at the whole family.
