No matter what wheel sport you excel in, it's always important to put on the proper gear before taking to the pavement. Gearing up involves using the proper equipment, including at least a helmet, wrist protection, and knee and elbow pads.
Helmets are probably the single most important part of the safety protection you can purchase for any kind of wheel sports. Head injuries can occur from even simple collisions or mishaps. Always wear an approved helmet when participating in any kind of activity involving speed.

Wearing the appropriate pads is an absolute must for most wheel sports — especially for inline skaters and skateboarders. If properly worn, they can save you from most kinds of scrapes, bruises, and road burns. Most pad sets contain elbow, knee, and wrist protectors.

Wearing gloves can be beneficial regardless of your sport of choice. Most cyclists wear gloves to increase their grip on the handlebars as well as to prevent blisters over long periods of time — but they can also benefit inline skaters by preventing injury and scrapes if an accident should occur.
