Various - Roller Skate flac album

1819: First patented roller skate design, in France by M. Petitbled. These early skates were similar to today's inline skates, but they were not very maneuverable. It was difficult with these skates to do anything but move in a straight line and perhaps make wide sweeping turns. Rest of the 19th century: inventors continued to work on improving skate design. 1823: Robert John Tyers of London patented a skate called the Rolito. The skate contained a pivoting action using a rubber cushion that allowed the skater to skate a curve just by pressing his weight to one side or the other, most commonly by leaning to one side. A team of skaters (usually counted in multiples of 4) creates various patterns and movements to music. Often used elements include skating in a line, skating in a box, 'splicing' (subgroups skating towards each other such that they do not contact each other), and skating in a circle.

Roller skates have 4 wheels in pairs. Use quad skates for exercise or choose retro roller skates for fun & disco skating. Quad roller skates were the first skates on the market and they were very popular before the breakthrough of inline skates. Then came a period where inline skates dominated the market. But in recent years, quad skates have gained increased popularity, likely because of their vintage design. That very design is also the reason why they are known as retro roller skates. Many parents and grandparents can probably remember the old quad roller skates that could be buckled on a pair of shoes. These retro roller skates are not a new invention but can be dated back to the late 1700's.

By 1863 the four wheeled skate (or quad skate) with an added rubber piece to allow skaters to curve when they moved was developed in New York City, and it was such a hit that the first roller rink was opened in the city shortly thereafter. Over the rest of the century the design of the roller skate was fine tuned with the addition of things like toe stops, making it easier and more enjoyable for people to roller skate. By the end of the 1800s roller skates were being mass produced in the . The Rise of Roller Rinks
