[@Clelia9533]

There is something we often forget to teach: *arms*. It's really important when you learn to make your arms follow your feet, and to look where you going instead of looking at your feet. You will learn faster and have a better balance. Arms up at the level of your shoulders, when your turning keep your arms up, the outside one front and the inside one back, so when you do a half turn, inverse your arms position. When you jump, flex your knees as much as you can, and make your arms follow: from the sides of your body (up), they will go down and then cross against your breast with an impulsion to the top.

[@laur-unstagenameactuallyca1587]

[@AppleBear033]

I remember watching this video 6 months ago when I was a complete beginner - now I can do all these tricks!

[@thumbsupd5164]

ParaglidingPony for how long did u take to be a pro ? how many hours a day or a week average?

[@AppleBear033]

Oh man, I'm no-where near being a pro... Though we'll all get there one day! I was really lucky to take up inline skating when I did - it was during the year I was studying in Spain. The amazing weather and pavements there meant that I could skate every day, be it to university, to the shops, or just for fun - definitely accelerated the learning process - so I'd say that was like, 10 hours or so every week. Now that I'm back in the UK, obviously I don't get to get out on the streets as much; but I joined an ice-skating club in addition - so, now I'm getting close to that time but also with great coaching!

[@ArenadosJogos]

Back in the 90´s there was this one summer when my parents gave me roller blades because I had good results in school, so naturally, I tried my best to learn how to skate with my friends, and succeeded. Since that year I never skated again, but now almost twenty years later and with 33 years of age, I decided I needed to exercise more, and went to buy a pair of skates once again. I was mind blown on how my body "remembered" how to skate and keep my balance. Now all I think about is skating after a hard days work, it´s like I am a kid again. Even my wife and daughter want to skate with me, it´s amazing how the family is getting closer because of this sport. Loved your video, I´m going to try and do some of the things you suggested. Cheers!

[@seetthtyrr4671]

Arena dos Jogos Hmmm well I "was" able to do what he shows in the video, plus I was an aggressive skater to, I have memories doing backflips, 360´s, 720´s on ramps half pipes etc, but aggressive skate = you wont skate for many years the body cant hold that abuse for a long time I have plates and screws in my bones because some epic fails on half pipe, so I had to abandon more than had I was forced to abandon aggressive skating and go on freestyle. I actually enjoy it freestyle, but my business married life etc etc force me to abandon that to, same as you I feel the need now, after 12 years I got my ass on my skates again, I didn't forgot it to but also I dont feel that secure anymore cause the leak of practice. When I saw this guy video makes me feel so hard the need to skate again at my 36 years old =P

[@berquelly]

Arena dos Jogos So interesting as this is very similar to my story! I was a good and fearless skater when I was a kid, now I'm 27 thought I needed to be more active and adopt a new hobby. So the first thing came to my mind, embracing a long lost friend, skating. Now my friends are thinking about buying/renting to join me. This is an awesome sport!

[@Fallen_blackrose]

+Arena dos Jogos thats great you remembered, my bike got stolen and skating was the only i had to commute faster so i might go back to cycling in the future and leave skating for a while but i was worried i might forget a few things in the future.

[@IronMessenger]

This is a great video... and as an old crunchy 42 year old, who originally started rollerblading back when they came out in the 90s... This is all the silly stuff we just naturally did for hours on end, and how we progressed to jumping over thing, ramps, urban stuff, etc. Now I am trying to get back into the sport, and closer to that teenage fitness level I once had! :D

[@linnyxue3870]

im trying to rollerblade again after almost 20 years of quitting (school, college etc) & i felt like i couldnt do it anymore. but its just my second session and i've fallen so much it feels discouraging. part of me is blaming the non-flat roads but i felt like im just making excuses.. what did you do to get back your lost skills?

[@IronMessenger]

@@linnyxue3870 Though I did feel out of my element at first I just started on easy hard surfaces, like tennis courts or basketball courts. Just had to put in the time, and keep pushing myself to try harder skills as I went. After 3 or 4 outings I was rolling off stairs, as well as hitting bad sidewalks and low speed streets in town again. As an old crunchy 40+ guy... Being sure to keep stretching before and after was important too. 🤓

[@PaeP3nguin]

Love this video! Here's a list of the exercises: 1. Sprinting 2. Cross (step) overs in a circle 3. Rolling and turning with skates inline, one behind the other 4. Rolling on one leg, straight and curves 5. Rolling over obstacles and roughness 6. Turning 180/360 in place by putting down back foot 7. Walk steps parallel and perpendicular to the steps 8. Skating backwards 9. Turning 180 into backwards position 10. Don't brake: slow down with curves and turns 11. Jump 180 into backwards skating 12. Roll on two wheels: turns and backwards 13. Backwards on one leg 14. Jump over everything! 15. Spins in place

everyone thinks wearing pads makes you look nerdy... WEAR THE DAMN PADS! and a helmet! wrist, knee pads and helmet. start on flat smooth surface maybe next to some grass if you can. fall on your knees a couple times use the knee pads and wear your wrist guards... helps to fall couple times on the pads, try wearing shoes and just fall on your knees few times, see how easy it will be for you...

[@jacka7241]

Look at the brand enui if you want good protection, may be pricey but it'll save hospital trips and they have nice designs worth the money take it from me with personal experience:)

[@whychilly5303]

Jack Ariel thx 😂yea I almost fall a lot

[@wittlekitty3174]

Something i used to do when i was still skating (i grew out of them, quite literally) was to wear the pads underneath my clothes, so it wouldn't look as weird and i'd still get the protection, though that might be more tricky depending on the kind of pants you want to wear

[@MuttleyGames]

I've been skating for over 8 years now and i hate pads because they restrict my movement but with skill you learn to fall without getting hurt too much. As a beginner get some pads tho.

[@Raveniz]

I have never used any protecting pads and still never got hurt doing any of these tricks the pads might also weigh you down and give you a more chance of falling then without the pads.

Lol I actually learned the turn on accident when I was trying to stop and I just put my foot down down and I did like 7 spins and my friends where so surprised and they were all saying how did you do that!

[@HarmonicaMustang]

When I was learning the T-stop, I couldn't put my braking foot down flat against the ground so I used the front wheel only to brake. Instead of braking it just made me turn and I stuck with it when I needed to slow down when going into a turn, if I need to do a sharp turn or if I need to turn 180 degrees and face backwards. I still need to slow down before doing a turn to avoid losing balance due to counter forces but its still a useful technique.

[@mutia23mp]

Same. I used to inline skate as a kid, and when i was playing in the frontyard, I accidentally did a turn. The kids who were outside passing by started to watch me try it again and succeeded! Coolest trick I learned that time 😂👌

[@blazer0112]

I don’t think that’s true

[@Andrey72NL]

The trick is to predict and control your turn otherwise it is truly dangerous. Control is the key word.

[@chelseawebber5286]

Lol the easiest was spins for me to my sister is always asking how to stop and i show her spins cause that's how i stop myself.

[@alexander_wagner]

One year ago I started to learn "real" inline skating and this is one of the videos I watched a couple of times and I were not able to do 80% of that stuff. Today I watched it again cause I was curious and I actually got everything of the list to work. But guys It does take hours of practise and yes at the beginning it feels like you will never do it but there will be a certain point when you keep trying where it just clicks and it works. Perfect list for the basics of actual skating. Grüße gehen raus!

of course it will take hours of practice to do these when you need hours of practice just to roll without falling, losing balance, etc.

[@jennamoynihan4249]

+Lucky 7th Was the skating action similar though?

[@romahnae]

lol. ..interesting. yeah, when we're kids there is little to no fear at all of falling so we learn to skate on ice or surface seamlessly with no prisoners taken. that's why it was a "piece of cake" for me, when i first hit the ice years ago and found out that i could balance and skate on ice. it's other way around for me, though, i've since recently started roller skating, again in years.. the ice isn't so easy for me anymore since i have not been ice skating for a long time. i'd decided to hit the ice last week and found out that my confidence had greatly diminished.. i had to skate around for a while before attempting, something once simple to me as, cross overs. my feet felt wobbly, i kept going off the ice to retighten or loosen my skates and i was relying more on outside-edges turns to just turn. it was just last winter season that i was 'killing it' at my beginner to intermediate level, skating really fast, hitting turns sharply and building ample speed with cross overs on both sides. last week, i felt completely new on the ice... maybe it's due to me roller blading at lot recently and thought that it would be same on ice, you know, that child mindset i once had. i prefer ice skating though, i was always say that i wish i had a frozen over lake near me all the time. i consider myself a beginner to intermediate skater, right there in between.. but i wanna be a freestyle skater on both ice and surface.

I love this video, a long time ago that I stopped to skating, but a few months since I recovered from a broken foot bones I wanted to take up the practice, and buy a new skates to run araoud town. It's a very good video, thanks for sharing. I will tell you how I'm doing

[@fournomore]

Great video for beginners!! I grew up skating and even worked at a drive in restaurant in high school. But it’s been a about 10 years since I last skated. I’d been wanting to get back into for the last couple of years but just hadn’t had to time to find a store to buy a good pair, as I live in the US and it seems to be pretty rare around here. About 4 months ago though I found a brand new pair of skates at a yard sale! Sure they were a cheap pair, but I paid $5 for them and that was enough to give me the little but of motivation I needed. I now am the the (probably weird 😂) girl who skates around our suburban neighborhood for 5 or more miles every other day. It’s like riding a bike, you never forget. Which is funny that I’m so good at skating because I’m super clumsy with regular shoes. It also helps me maintain my leg mass that I don’t want to loose as I approach 30 years old. Anyways, thanks for the video, I’m sure it’s been really helpful to beginners!

[@angelalaplante1451]

Roxette Hubbart so glad to hear you don’t lose it. I used to skate when I was young and I finally got the courage to buy a $100 pair yesterday..I’m hoping it’s the same case scenario.

[@puff6796]

i started skating 3 days ago i guess i am now the weird suburban girl lol

[@PolarbearJo]

Thank you for putting these together. It really helped me as I like skating on my own. I tried them all, they are good collection of tips.

[@RS-yb2pp]

Your video is really good ! I used to skate years ago and I really can relate in all that you said ! I‘m planning to get in some skates soon again ! I was more advanced in those old days and I really think that your video is great for beginners ! Thank you in the name of all those who want it to learn it properly ! And to everybody still learning. Take your time and stay safe ☺️👌🏻

[@trollemansgodep2675]

I am already skatin 8 years ( i am now 14 ) an i thought i could practise everything , but i learned a lot while watchin your video :)

[@serenalizinnqui8474]

1:30 I started doing this as soon as I began learning. My sisters made fun of me for it until they found out how helpful it is to be able to skate in-line! I guess thing #16 would be "Don't worry about others making fun of your skating."

[@soundsofearth3175]

These are some really helpful tips on how to improve your skating skills! I'm a beginner myself, I'll definitely come back to this video once I've mastered all of these. Cya in a few months!

[@jamesmaxwell3425]

I really thank you for this video. I first watched it back in 2016 and it really helped me out a lot. I tried every trick in the video too. Now I'm a lot better at Rollerblading and have mastered all those tricks thanks to this video. I came across it today and it brings back memories when I was still learning.

[@jaketm2395]

+Shahin Nawabi agreed hahaha I just started trying to roller skate I've fallen about 5 times in the first 10 minutes and I just laugh my butt of about it instead of getting mad

[@yongarygonanra2993]

a few people accidentally clicked on it

[@amandarupp3400]

+Jaketm23 Me too. I was laughing so hard after I fell the other day I didn't realize I had drawn a small crowd and my brother was video recording me.

[@karenhenry124]

ok

[@eddiemetriumzone3583]

Man this video really made me improve and skate like a pro within 3 months! Thanks but I wonder, how do you manage to turn from forwards to backwards on two wheels?

[@strikefishingman]

+Eddie Mitch it's pretty much the same as doing the turns on all wheels, just takes a bit more balance :)

[@eddiemetriumzone3583]

strikefishingman I suggest you make some tutorials on just one skill, for example turning from forward to backwards and vice versa. A lot of guys struggle with that. Thanks.

[@kwaping]

Hey man, great video covering the basics and beyond. I'm an old pro skater from the late 80s/early 90s and I totally approve of your list.

[@aarushigupta1410]

Such an energetic skater i have ever seen Love ur perfomance and tutorial

[@choobie4534]

I can practically do all of those. The only thing I have trouble with is turning and going backwards, BUT it's only when I turn a specific direction. I can spin right into it very easily, but I have a little harder time spinning left into backwards.

[@laytenci]

I'm in the same boat as you. I also need to figure out how to stop when going really fast. Have any tips?

[@rjshots1644]

+Michael Layton I turn it into a trick that decreases your momentum then you can stop or just doge and glide.

[@davidvanmeenen4266]

do a T- stop untill your speed is low enough to engage a power stop (powerslide) . Or t-stop all the way to get started.

[@TofuCakeCan]

To say nothing of the skating in this video, I applaud your ingenious use of a selfie stick to do closeups. You've given purpose to an otherwise really annoying invention ;) Oh yeah, and thanks for making this video. I too just got back into rollerblading and although I feel like I'm picking it back up fast, I still have a lot to learn.

[@strikefishingman]

+TofuCakeCan I feel the same way about selfie sticks! And I would never buy one or even let someone give me one. I used a mono pod upside down ;)

[@TofuCakeCan]

oh derp. Well carry on then!

[@jinanalshaer4818]

[@tomsupis8724]

When going backwards and turning back forward there is a force that you can use to swing your self up, it's practically a natural jump. once you feel it, you can start vending your knees and adding your own force to perform a cool jump. It's very fun.

[@naybaz7777]

I am learning to skate. This is the best video on youtube, helped me a lot. What a legend

[@azukun4248]

I got a little tip too If you remove the two middle wheels you can jump higher and you are faster but that also has a drawback you can not ride so well over stones or small hills, but your inlinestakers are a lot easier try it it is fun

[@MythOfAlex]

Azuuu Haft this is a myth. Especially at skating rinks this doesn’t help. I see a lot of new skaters doing this and it makes them look stupid. Half of them don’t even know what it does. It doesn’t make you faster but it decreases weight by a tad. Best idea would just to invest in a more expensive and lighter pair of skates. You lose so much grip and speed by taking those wheels out.

[@Azuniite]

I'm proud I can do all of these 15 things :)

[@joemason2587]

what an inspiring video, especially cool where you show the times where it doesn't quite work as well :)
