All I want for Christmas is... Rollerskating, the new sport your kid will love.

This year, more than ever, we can't wait for summer! The weather is warming up in Brisbane, Christmas is just around the corner, and we've got the perfect gift idea for you: roller skates! We've got a fantastic selection of both kids and adult roller skates (and roller blades) that will allow you to get out and enjoy some fun in the sun as a family.

Complete the trendy skater look and keep those limbs protected with our range of skate accessories and protective gear. When choosing wrist guards and knee and elbow pads, you can keep it edgy in black and red or rock those summer vibes in the pastel shade. Safety is key when learning any new sport and our roller skating protective gear will give you peace of mind as you watch your little one start zooming down the pavement!

As you may be able to tell, we're pretty pumped for summer skating here at LR Sport. Here are just a few reasons it's fast becoming one of our favourite activities:

• It's great exercise! A fun form of cardio for the whole family.
• The zero-impact nature of skating reduces the intensity of the exercise on your joints.
• It's a social activity!
• Fantastic for improving balance and coordination.
