FREESTYLE SLIDE

Created by our own Singaporean skaters, this category is an adrenaline-packed test of one's courage and grit. Simply put, this category is all about drifting on skates. Skaters are judged on the distance, difficulty and execution of the slide.

SPEED SLALOM

This category is all about speed and consistency. The goal is to whizz through a lane of 20 cones while keeping kicked/missed cones to a minimum in the fastest timing possible. To excel, skaters have to perfect every step and have full control of their body movements to execute each run smoothly.

DAPHNE CHUA

Having given the utmost opportunity to witness numerous major Inline Freestyle events worldwide, it has enabled me to be able to grow and learn together with the sport. Inline Freestyle as a competitive sport has been around for 12 years and certainly weighs a high influence as my career involving Roller Sport development.

Managing Team Singapore into many high profile events allows me to be able to strategically involve myself into the development of Inline Freestyle locally and with this privilege, I hope to bring the sport to a higher level.

Where to slide/slalom?

The official ground for slide and slalom is located in Downtown East at Pasir Ris, in an Indoor Skating Rink – Hi Roller Singapore. It is furnished with the national competing ground and will be perfect for your training. Slide training is held every Thursday at 8PM and there is a $10 chargeable fee. In any case you'd like to practice outside of Hi Roller's training hours: For Slalom, you'll need a flat open surface, a set of cones, measuing tape and a marker. For Slide, you'll only need a flat open surface.

What are the measurements for cones in slalom?

There are 3 types of measurements used in Classic and Battle Slalom. 0.5m, 0.8m and 1.2m. These measurements are the distance to leave in-between cones. The lanes should be 2m apart from one another. For speed slalom, only the 0.8m measurements are used.
