Inline skating is a very popular type of outdoor activity and sport. A whole army of his admirers rushes along asphalt paths, performing incredible tricks. In order to fully experience the beauty of skiing, it is worth paying attention to the manufacturer of the inventory. Seba commercials are deservedly popular among both amateurs and athletes.
History
The very first roller skates in the distant eighteenth century did not look at all like modern ones. The wheels were arranged in pairs, there was no question of a brake. Chicago Roller Skate Company (USA) in the sixties of the last century developed the design of roller skates, allowing hockey players to train on the grass.
This innovation was also picked up by other companies operating in the sports industry, and inline skates quickly gained popularity around the world.
Roller skates are as follows: the boots are mounted on a frame with several wheels. Their number can be different - from two to six. In them, it is customary to move on a solid, flat surface, sometimes on impassable roads. They are used as a convenient sports equipment for active sports.
Seba company
The history of Seba, the market leader in the market today, began with the release of professional commercials for slalom by the MX company (Korea). Fruitful cooperation with the famous French roller Sebastian Lafargue resulted in the creation of two models of videos.
The first model was called Seba High, it was made taking into account the most advanced technical innovations and original design solutions. The second, lightweight Seba Low model was not inferior to it in quality and sophistication of design. Seba rollers began to be produced in a joint production with the name "MX Seba" (Seba is the nickname of Sebastian Lafargue, under which he took part in competitions).
The European market met the Universkates SEBA brand in 2005. Claims by consumers for very tough shoes and complicated lacing, which takes a lot of time, did not prevent the new videos from successfully competing.
Features of Seba
The model of Seba High rollers was distinguished by a short frame, only 243 mm, which allowed them to perform the most complex figures and tricks. The roller skates of the famous brand are constantly being developed and improved. Before the release of the new model, they are thoroughly tested by the scooters of the best teams on the planet. Today the company produces the following series of skates: High, FR, Trix GT, ProModel and Junior.
Features that distinguish Seba rollers from other similar products include boot stiffness, a powerful frame, the strength of parts, and the ability to replace them. Since the release of the first inline skates to the present day, they are considered one of the best for professional athletes. The latest generation of the Seba line is lightweight and has an attractive design.
Modern commercials
Seba rollers, like all similar products, consist of the following elements:
- The boot is the main part of the roller skate. A frame is attached to it.
- Frame - the main supporting structure, can be made of metal, plastic or carbon fiber. On the one hand, wheels are attached to it, on the other, a boot. There are two options: monolithic and removable frames. Manufacturers produce more models with a removable frame.
- The wheels are made of polyurethane. They vary in diameter and stiffness. On children's or very cheap models, you can see plastic wheels. On "SUVs" pneumatic wheels are mounted on bushes and bearings. Mounting to the frame is done through the axles. Wheels for Seba rollers are reliable and quality.
- The cuff is a special system for supporting and tightly fixing the ankle. This item may not be available on running rollers. Make it from durable plastic or carbon fiber. Some models use a massive construction, mainly on aggressive rollers.
- The heel strap is usually made from Velcro, sometimes like a buckle. It is attached to the boot and fixes the heel.
- Buckley is a toothed plastic belt. Its purpose is to fix the cuffs. To give the boot extra rigidity and strengthen fixation, on some models of rollers an additional buckle is installed instead of the heel strap.
- Heel brake or brake pad. It is put on one boot. Two types are available: passive or fixed and active, in this case the brake shoe lowers when the roller moves forward.
- Inside or soft boot. It is designed to fix the legs inside the boot. It is not in models of rollers with a solid boot, models of "fitness", "aggressive".
Children's videos
Seba children's videos in quality, design, reliability are in no way inferior to their "adult" brothers. They have an original system for increasing the size of the boot, but not with the help of its mechanical “pushing apart”, but with the use of insoles of different sizes. This option is much safer in terms of securing the child’s legs in the boot.
In children's models use an aluminum frame. This adds reliability during the operation of the skates. The heel gum is fastened with Velcro very simple and very reliable. The stiffness of the boot softens the thermoformed material of which the inner boot is made.
