Patinodrome

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Inline skaters at a patinodrome.

A patinodrome is an arena for inline speed skating.[1][2] They are oval tracks similar to velodromes used for track cycling, but have flat straights and shallow-banked or no banked curves. They are typically outdoors or under cover with open or partial walls. Patinodromes are common in Europe, but rare in North America.

Design

[edit]

A patinodrome is generally about 160m to 250m in circumference and may be surfaced with asphalt, concrete or similar material. The curves may be banked.
