Friday Night Skate organizes 'entry-level skate', the perfect moment to participate (for the first time)

In the coming summer months, April until September, FNS will organize an FNS 'entry-level skate' on the first Friday of the month.

Lower speed, shorter distance. The ideal evening to get acquainted with the Friday Night Skate if you have no experience of skating with a group or if you are unsure whether you can keep up with the pace. The entry-level skate is also suitable for quads.

We roll at a speed of 13 km/hour. That is the average speed of a bicycle, or a 3,3 km lap of the Vondelpark (see below) in 15 minutes. The length of the tour is 12 to 15 km, some 4 to 5 rounds of the Vondelpark.

The tour takes 2 to 2,5 hours, including a break of 20 to 30 minutes. During the break fast/speady skaters can make an extra lap or sprint.

New at the Instapskate since 2024...

If you want to work on your Skate Skills before the start, you are welcome at Skateshop ThisIsSoul at 7:00 PM.

From there you will leave under the guidance of experienced skaters for Het Vondelpark and you will receive tips on your skating technique to improve it even further. At approximately 8:15 PM you will be at the starting point of the Friday Night Skate, which departs at 8:30 PM.

What can you expect? Think of:

- how to get over bad surfaces

- different braking techniques

- different stopping techniques

- different falling techniques.
