FAQ:

Q: What kind of skates did Rollerblade invent?

A: Today 60 inline skate manufacturers exist, but Rollerblade is credited with introducing the first polyurethane boot and wheels, the first heel brakes, and the development of active brake technology, which makes stopping easier to learn and to control. Rollerblade has approximately 200 patents and 116 registered trademarks. 1

Q: What was the problem with the first Rollerblade?

A: Still, the first mass-produced rollerblades, while innovative, had some design flaws. They were difficult to put on, adjust, and were prone to collecting dirt and moisture in the ball bearings. The wheels were also easily damaged and the brakes came from the old roller skate toe-brake and were not very effective.

Q: Is the Rollerblade still a trademark for inline skates?

A: Rollerblade Almost Becomes a Generic Name Over time, strategic marketing efforts thrust the brand name into public awareness. Skating enthusiasts began using Rollerblade as a generic term for all inline skates, putting the trademark in jeopardy. However, as of February 2023, it is still a trademark owned by the company.

Q: When did Rollerblade change from polyurethane to glass?

A: 1990: Rollerblade, Inc. switched to a glass-reinforced thermoplastic resin (Durethane polyamide) for their skates, replacing the polyurethane compounds used previously. This decreased the average weight of skates by nearly 50%.
