Many of us wear round lipped wheels which aren't as wide as you guys jam wheels and the profile of your wheels are different too. We have 3 distinct styles of skating here. Trad. disco (like rhythym skaters), swing backskate/jazz/rink dance style - also has gymnastic elements) and showboating/freekydeeky - like Paul and Selvyn do, which does have more elements of showmanship including breaking/gymnastic moves.I've seen these styles of skating here since 1990, but disco is big here at the moment.

We have elements of breakdance in our jazz dance, freestyle and rink skating. We don't jam per-se. Jamskating has been going in the US 5 years or so. You guys wear low cut leather jam boots (Riedells, Vanillas etc.) we do it in over the ankle hockey skates. You guys roll on hard wheels, we roll on soft ones. I have both types of skates and wheels, I skate different in both, the moves are slightly different.

The video was shot at an all-night skate, held at a rink called Rollerworld, situated in a town called Derby, which is in the middle of England, U.K. The things round the guys ankles are foam tubes covered in fabric. They're called 'puffas' which is an acronym for Ankle Puffs. They keep the feet equidistant when dancing and protect the boots from getting damaged. Many of our rink skaters wear them and have done since the 90's. It's an English thing.

Foam tubes covered in fabric. They keep the feet equidistant when dancing and protect the boots from getting damaged. We call them 'Puffas', which is an acronym for Ankle Puffs. Very many of our rink skaters wear them and have done for years. Primarily, as far as I know, it's an English thing.
