Guide Review - The Snow White Inline Figure Skate:
Those who have tried Snow Whites say they are able to do spins and jumps with ease. Also, they are very light and the short frame makes it possible to do ice dances.
Spinning can be delightful on Snow Whites, but it may take time to figure out where the "sweet spot" is. When a skater attempts a sit spin, he or she may have to force his or her weight a bit forward. Camel spins feel so much like camel spins feel on the ice.
Although Snow White skates are made in China, there are Snow White skate distributors all over the world. Some countries where Snow White skates are available for purchase include Argentina, Australia, Austria, Benelux, Brazil, China, Czech and Slovakia, France, Georgia, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Iran, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Singapore, Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan, Ukraine, United Kingdom, and the USA.
Those who are interested in artistic inline figure skating will find that Snow White inline figure skates are the most popular and are one of the most accepted inline figure skates in the artistic roller skating world. Three wheels, a toe stop, and a rockered design make the skate lighter than The PIC® Skate which is the most popular inline figure skate among ice skaters.
My First Day In Snow White Skates - By Jo Ann Schneider Farris
I began my first time in Snow Whites with some caution. After doing several waltz jumps, I moved on to Salchows and then toe-loops. I then attempted some spirals and pivots. I was so impressed with the lightness of the skate and found myself wanting to do more. Soon I was doing falling leaf jumps, loops, flips, Lutzes, and Axels!
I also found spinning to be delightful. It took a bit before I figured out how to get up from a sit spin since I needed to force my weight a bit forward, but once I found that place, I was doing sit spins over and over. Doing camel spins felt so much like my camel spins on the ice!
Finally, as I began doing footwork and stroking, I realized how much the lightness of this skate made doing those things a pleasure. I loved putting my feet close together as I did ice dances! It was fun doing the three turns in the European Waltz! It was also great fun doing the Blues and Killian! And... doing edges and swing rolls, forward and backward, went so smoothly!
My day on Snow Whites was the best! I can’t wait to skate on them again.
I highly recommend this product for the serious artistic in-line figure skater or for anyone who wishes to do what is done on the ice on an inline skate.
