15 benefits of rollerblading

[@InlineGuitarSkater]

I started again to blade at 35, after 20 years of not doing any sport. At least 1 hour per day :D Reached 5500km last month :D . Nice video again :D !!!

[@bluety8402]

Love that for you man

[@socer451]

Started back at 32....feel like A kid again...wanna get some quads and have both

[@ceciliavalencia7656]

Thanks for sharing your inspiring me to get back into it :)

[@lexib671]

That's amazing, well done! I'm also in my 30s, first time skating. It's the new love of my life for all the reasons in this vid.

[@ChronicallyMandyMay]

Awesome... way to go🙌... I miss skating... These videos & the comments are encouraging me to start back up again... I just turned 40 🙈.. Best exercise ever 🫶

[@MyHam-os4bq]

I love that it can be as social as you want it or don’t want it to be

[@PollySkates]

Yes I love this too!!! It can also be really personal and just with yourself too 🩵

[@coyotestylepro1150]

Hell....Yeah...XD

[@kimberleyebsary1693]

We started out as a skateboard family, and then our kids were invited to a birthday party at a skate rink. We all decided to switch to inline skates after that, and that was about 5 months ago. We are all so in love with our new skating journey!!

[@PollySkates]

How cool!! I love how rollerblading is such a great family activity. My nephew is finally old enough to really get it (6) and we are bonding so much having so much fun

[@brookeelizabeth8266]

I’m a newbie and I’ve found rollerblading is soooo good for my adhd ass! It’s challenging mentally and physically and it’s just fun, which checks all of my boxes for a good outlet. The only problem I’ve run into is finding somewhere ideal to practice. I don’t live in a metro area so there’s not really any good places to practice that have good terrain and are also spacious. I would love to just be able to skate for hours but I’m always stuck to parking lots which get really boring after a while

[@samanthab9969]

Me too! Everywhere is too sloped or hills near me. There are a couple of flat netball courts I use but they're sometimes full with sports practise so then I can't skate 😢

[@roar8693]

Look for skate parks in your area indoor or outdoor ones

[@shannon.skates]

You should do more 'skate with me' vids. I enjoy watching you skate, your stride is seamless🤘🏻

[@PollySkates]

Will do!🤗🙏🙏❤️

[@janeynget3059]

I have been rollerblading on and off the last 20 years. I’m 55 years old. I tried to get out riding a couple of times a week on an average of 12 miles. I love it.

Yes! I really need to get my Rollerblades out and practice once and for all. My doctor told me I need to start exercising and this is the perfect way. Thank you for this video, it has given me the push I really needed! ❤❤❤

[@drescherjm]

At 52 years old having just crossed 5 years of skating, I have never skated on a boardwalk or anywhere near a beach. I have skated in 2 different states however as I took my skates with me from PA to NC for a weekend graduation this year. Last week I got some 100mm wheels for my endless 100/110 and tried 4 by 100s for the first time. I did over 20 miles on Friday in 2 sessions one on the daily hilly area and one on a paved trail. I am really liking that setup. It may be my new favorite over my 4x90s or either of my 3x110 setups I use on my 2 pairs of FR1 skates. For me #15 was part of the reason I started. My father died of diabetes in 2015. Since mid February of that year I have done cardio at least 3 times a week every single week. Before I started skating in May of 2019 a lot of this cardio was running on a treadmill in my basement. Skating is much much more fun than the treadmill and you get outside! And #10 yes it's a lot better on my knees as well.

[@juanacevedo9415]

I ❤️ all these great 15 rollerblade benefits! Never to late to start rollerblading. Thank you both for this wonderful video.

[@TheRashidies]

Hey Polly, I recently moved to a beach side town in Australia and I am rollerblading every morning. Watching the sun rise over the water has been create as a mum of four to be grounded for the day. I'd love to find a rollerblading community out here :) Thanks for making all your videos. I'm loving watching them all.

[@PollySkates]

Thank you!!! I’m so happy for you!! 🙏🩵🤗

[@QueenQueenly]

I can’t stand working out but I sure do LOVE rollerblading. Great fun workout

[@PollySkates]

Same here!🤗🤙

[@enesin91]

Good for the mind and the body i absolutely love Rollerblades gives me a mood up lift and stress relief 👌❤️🔥

[@BuDu-ms2qe]

I can relate with all your points. It's crazy how as the season progresses I huff and puff less and less and I can go further and longer after every session.

[@Diver10-i8i]

It’s 12:30am where I am rn and this just came out 😂

[@kimberleeberry2039]

I've never tried rollerblades,I have a pair of quads. However,I have a pair ordered and can't wait to learn. I'm glad you and your sweethearts channel came in my feed. I keep strength training at the gym,but I am having problems with shredding the fat. I'm sure rollerblading is going to be a different,fun way to do it without burning out.❤

[@michelefisher2072]

My part time home- Hermosa Beach! Hope to see you sometime on the strand!

[@PollySkates]

I hope so too! I also like to think of it as my part time home 🥹 I live like an hour away, but absolutely my fave place to skate in LA ❣️

[@albertmoyeskin7841]

I rollerblade to give our dogs a vigorous exercise session each morning. It’s an efficient and effective way to keep all of us in shape.

[@Yzariael]

Thanks for your videos! ❤ getting back into rollerblading after 15 years. My twister xt just arrived. But I'm still waiting for the protectors/helmet. Don't want to start without that 😅

[@PollySkates]

❤️ how cool! I LOVE twisters so much. I think they are my fave. Yes good idea wait for protective gear. I’m so excited for you!

[@Cocokidvid]

Next month I get rollerblades and thank to you cus you the one why I’m going to buy this❤😊

[@PollySkates]

Hope you enjoy it!🎉🩵🤙🙏

[@doubblleeggeeprincess3790]

I'm 52years old. After a suggestion at work that got me to call the skaters club, I couldn't help but, nurture the need to start skating myself. So, this morning, I woke up with the nudge to learn to roller skate.

[@Edwards-xx2mq]

Thank you for this very informative and encouraging video! Can't wait to start training again, I was a little discouraged as I have been sick and have not been on the rollerblades for a while. I needed this video, thanks again!

[@ThuNguyen-jy2jt]

I just started rolling and discovered your channel at such an opportune time! But I still can’t figure out how to turn for the life of me 😩

[@pavelbuchnevich1229]

Best way for beginners is to put one of your foot (left if you want to turn left, or right if you want to turn right) in front of the other (scissor position) and lean towards the side you're turning. And if you want to make a faster & sharper turn, then push with your back foot.

[@bonzupippinpaddleoxacoppil484]

Jet Set Radiooo!

[@joeschmo2693]

Awesome boardwalk. Skating's power couple - it'd have to be a blast skating with you guys! I think we got our ice skates at the same time. It's a whole new learning experience, isn't it? I think it'll make me a better inline skater though - my hockey stop has already improved.

[@joeschmo2693]

P.S.: Dolphin should post more on YT.

[@PollySkates]

Such a blast!! And I got my ice skates in February! Omg it’s totally making me a better blader. I can feel it!!! Hey thanks for adding this I want to make a vid about it now!! I actually thought of ice skating tho when thinking about the benefits because you don’t have to pay for rink cost or be limited to the small space when you rollerblade unlike ice skating 😊 pros and cons. So much to learn! I love it! 🩵🤗🙏

Hello from Near Mount Mitchell! My bf & I both grew up skating, our two kids usually only go for birthday parties. Unfortunately the last about 5 weeks weeks ago we were invited to a party our Daughter 11 was out there skating & 2 girls fell and she went to try to dodge them and it seemed like the simplest fall but when I seen her in extreme tear & pain I knew something was wrong at first her dad was trying to get her up to “shake it off” but she couldn’t we took her to the hospital and she had a broken Tibia 🦴 I still can’t believe it! She just got her full cast off and now on her half cast until end of June then a boot for two months! She will start her first year of middle school in a boot. We wonder if her skates being tied So Tight if that could have caused her leg to break bc like I said to see the fall it wasn’t a bad fall. We always tie tight to support the ankles more. Hopefully one day she will decide to try again right now she says no, she thinks it be easier to Re brake.

[@PollySkates]

Oh no ❤️‍🩹 I’m sorry to hear this happened to her. Maybe after she fully heals she’ll give it another try with time in a less chaotic environment 🙏❤️ birthday party with lots of kids who don’t know how to skate can be pretty scary

[@hanj31]

rollerblading is how I stayed lean and mean as a child. I started skating in 1998 when I was 8 year old. After I left college stuff I started skating less and I ended up gaining some weight. I need to get a new pair of skates to get around town.

[@PollySkates]

Yessss do it! So worth it to get back into it

[@hanj31]

@@PollySkates my old k2 skates wore out need to get a new one

[@Mochibird8]

I really need to get a good pair of rollerblades, at first when I got my rollerblades I didn't research well so,I sadly got soft boot ones and got scammed as the ones in the pic were COMPLETELY different but now,I'm saving up for a better rollerblade and this really helped me to decide whether or not I should get one❤

[@samanthab9969]

I also bought soft boots and have a huge problem with protation. I'm not looking into buying hard boots to see if that helps!

[@lewis7515]

This was terrific.

[@shawnfall3447]

What do you think about using poles to ‘skate ski’? I’m a much better x-country skier than skater (used to play hockey), and as a 70 yr old beginner rollerblader I thought I’d feel more stable (safe) with poles. Haven’t tried it yet though. I don’t know if it may be counter productive to improving rollerblade skills?

[@deenfranich]

You are so cute♥ You make me wanna grab mi rollerblades right now and go practice. I just start skating like 3 months ago frome zero, and right now i can make T stop and spinn a little, ty ♥

[@monirulmallick554]

Thank you ❤

[@colinroberts2060]

I sometimes feel like the reason I haven't skated as much as I would like to is because it's harder to find enough flat terrain where I live. And I've technically never skated in a street setting or been able to transport them when traveling. Moreover, I'm also not sure if you're familiar with "roller basketball" or "roller soccer" as well as the hockey variant.

[@ladesneffous-vc2yx]

Regarde tu as oublié quelque chose mais tu ne pouvais pas savoir. Quand on vieillit comme moi, même après avoir fait du sport toute sa vie, le corps ne tolère plus des traumatismes liés a certains sports comme la course a pied par exemple, parce que il y a des chocs sur les articulations et les muscles.. le rollers c'est un peu comme la bicyclette, c'est moins traumatisant tout en restant plus proche de la course à pied que le cyclisme... Best Polly

[@THATHWIK_SAI_VENKAT]

Is your husband who is fliming this video was on roller blades or vechile

[@eleanorelf]

3:12 I'm gonna stop you right there. Anyone with decent quality skates know that they ain't lightweight and no way can they fit in your backpack. (No hate, I like ur channel)

[@PollySkates]

I carry my skates literally everywhere I go in my backpack when I’m not skating :) all the inline skate brands that make good quality skates make backpacks designed for carrying skates too!

[@eleanorelf]

@@PollySkates ah cool. I've got oxel mf 500s atm and they're quite heavy, aswell as other skaters I've met have very heavy duty skates too, and wouldn't fit in a regular backpack lol. Perhaps its a wales thing, good tarmac and public roller sessions are hard to come by.

I love you. You're so cute 😚
