It is a form of recreation as well as a sport, and can also be a form of transportation. Skates generally come in two basic varieties: quad roller skates and inline skates or blades, though some have experimented with a single-wheeled quintessence skate or other variations on the basic skate design. In America, this hobby was most popular in the 1970s and the 1990s.During the late 1980s and early 1990s, the Rollerblade-branded skates became so successful that they inspired many other companies to create similar inline skates, and the inline design became more popular than the traditional quads. The Rollerblade skates became synonymous in the minds of many with inline skates and skating, so much so that many people came to call any form of skating Rollerblading, thus becoming a genericized trademark.
