Let’s say you are a regular skater, or you want some sort of goal before you to motivate you to get into shape. Planning an adventure inline skating vacation might be just the thing for you. Zephyr’s Inline tours are probably the most well-known. They offer trips to Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard, Minnesota, Idaho, Florida, Switzerland and the Netherlands. The trips are about a week long, cost between $1500 and $2000 and give you the chance to skate your heart out without having to plan any of the details! These skates are geared for all levels of abilities, so you can usually chose the length of the route you want for the day, usually around 12, 20 or 30 miles a day. How good of a skater do you need to be in order to go on a vacation like this? Zephyr Tours says you need to be able to skate comfortably for an hour. There are some tours, however, that are specifically geared for advanced skaters. All kinds of inline skating tours are a great way to meet new friends and are popular with men, women, solo travelers and internationals. Very similar to skating tours are skating camps. Camp Rollerblade is run by Zephyr Tours and is a great way to involve the whole family in inline skating fun. The camps last usually five days and have several locations around the United States. For the advanced skater, special clinics are also held to help the skater develop better technique and ultimately, more speed. These are usually held over a weekend.
