4.2 TIPS FOR RIDING ESCEND BLADES

SPEED BUMPS

Take care when going over speed bumps, do not go over them at high

speeds and keep your balance. Even though the skates can handle

a level of abuse they are not designed for extreme jumps or tricks.

Damage resulting from hard riding will not be covered under the

warranty.

UNEVEN SURFACES

Be careful when riding on uneven and bumpy surfaces. This could

throw you o-balance and cause a dangerous situation, especially

for inexperienced riders. Avoid sharp manoeuvres and keep to a speed

within your comfort level.

SIDEWALK / ROAD JUNCTION

Take care when stepping up or down any sidewalks, take them at a

slow speed and lift one leg at a time onto the new level surface. If the

surface is less than 3cm you can ride straight up it but take them

at 45-degree angles and maintain your speed, while keeping your

balance.

ZEBRA CROSSING AND ROAD MARKINGS

Please take care when going over slippery surfaces (e.g. painted

road markings) when the road is wet. If you must go on them do not

accelerate / brake ercely, keep to a low speed and avoid sharp

manoeuvres.

PARKED CARS, PARKING LOTS AND PEDESTRIANS

Take extra caution and slow down when riding around cars and

pedestrians. They may not see you or may not be paying attention to

their surroundings. Slow down around emerging or parking cars and

ride as if they cannot see you!

WATERLOGGED ROADS

This could be a hazard to your skates and is recommended you do not

ride on waterlogged roads. Do not immerse the skates in water and

avoid big puddles. Water damage is not covered in the warranty.
