In-line skating dates to Holland in the early 1700s with boot spools. James Plimpton's 1863 roller skates introduced side by side wheels. Quads got urethane wheels in the 1970s and rubber toe stops. Skateboarding arose on the West Coast in the 1960s. Roller hockey uses a stick and rubber ball or puck, five players per team, a goalie, and courts vary in size.
