EN 13899:2003 (E)51 ScopeThis standard applies to roller skates intended for users with a body mass of more than 20 kg and less than 100 kg.This standard specifies safety requirements for roller skates, specifications for test methods, marking and informa-tion supplied by the manufacturer to reduce the risk of injuries to both third parties and the user during their normaluse.Roller skates for use by a user of less than 20 kg do not belong to the scope of this European Standard. They aretoys.This standard does not apply to inline-skates according to EN 13843.2 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.
