Bad Example Blader

[@888alphaable]

Listen dude, you've been one of the reason that I got into skating, and how I figured out what parts of it that I like. I also learned some really good basics from you. Please, please, PLEASE wear a helmet. I'd be heartbroken if anything happened to you.

[@Igunaq]

at least wear a helmet when you've got the edges of curbs stairs and benches to fall into.

[@WheelyArt]

Yes Bill please wear a helmet

[@Char1ieskate]

when you fall, you fall on your wrists, knees or hips.. it's not like cycling. have you ever fallen over walking and fallen onto your head? no? point proven.

[@WheelyArt]

@@Char1ieskatelol,You did not prove anything you made an observation about walking ( where are your experiments,control group etc) you are not walking here lol,you are moving at sometimes crazy speeds,I agree that there is a minimal chance of a head collision but there is a probability ( I do speak from some experience and qualifications in medical, health safety ( 35 years) and 🤣 suffered concussion while skateboarding as teenager. So everyone is free to use or not use a helmet as for me I will use one.

[@MhDizzy]

Savage speed Bill, love the music as well and Yes, get that bloody helmet on dude, don't risk it. ATB Marti

That is some seriously bass ackwards and messed up logic but OK...

[@galaxyskate9585]

The “fuck me!” absolutely killed me 😂 great vid as always!

[@NazarOnWheels]

Even more than high speed downhills I am scared of the pavements totally covered in autumn leaves, like at 0:21 - you never know what kind of slippery stuff you can catch underneath it, so I have to just breath in and hope that it all goes fine 🙈

[@spacejamgoliath]

Goes just as fast uphill

[@lukasharmon4965]

goes faster uphill

[@properlygood3828]

Terrible, Bill. I loved watching every second of that.

[@Verithiell]

so I am sitting here with my skates on, just came back from a little ride, its past midnight, and watching this I want to go out to get some more, haha. Thats what you call great content. It makes you wanna do things.

[@RichHayterSkater]

That looked like a killer but rather enjoyable session, Bill. Very Terminator-like at some points - relentless advance! Love it!😎

[@joelsucksatgames]

I missed your narration on the last two videos. They were still amazing videos and I enjoyed them thoroughly, but I was glad to have it back for this one.

[@dereksimmons5877]

2:25 I love how you peek behind you before you blast into a sprint to carry your speed through a flat spot just to catch the lip and tuck in on the next hill. I felt it in my bones and it felt good!

[@Bavmorda]

Not that I'm qualified to give YOU any advice, but you passed parked cars so close at such speed I had my heart in my throat (don't know if the phrase exist in English, but I think it's expressive enough). If one of those cars had a person open the door without looking, you'd be dead. And we can not risk loosing you!! 😰

[@warrenegan2149]

Got a pair of skates today with your inspiration lol, i use to play roller hockey with my friends back in middle school and I was pretty good with the roller blading aspect of it(I’m 21 now), I just went for a ride and didn’t realize how difficult it is at first, it’s definitely not like riding a bike and you never forget, it also might have to do with the fact I have tri skates with 100 mm wheels, maybe not the best choice to start with again but I’m up for the challenge, thanks for the videos there really helpful🙏🏻 keep up the good work

[@PartScavenger]

This is the only video I've ever seen that captures what it feels like to skate. Good job Bill.

[@minijimi]

Hi Bill, Thanks for taking me around a tour of Toronto. I love the speed and the grace. I can not do what you do, I have the balance of a drunken sailor at the best of times. Take care man!

[@monkzeno1]

Great skate. Love the music. Jealous you have so many places to skate. From Dundee, Scotland.

[@MrKlmn1234]

“Human cannonball” well said.👍

[@lawlesslarry744]

Yooo, I literally been binge watching your videos because Acosta Blades mentioned you and I took your advice on "quit skating cautiously" and I went blading on a pair of Aragons with an aggressive set up at NIGHT and it was the best skate of my life so far!

[@elisha770]

Perfect ride before the snow... but that never stopped you !

[@edwardtaylor5207]

Loved every second of that, cool to see the human cannonball smashing through some new bits of Toronto. Music choice also great

[@AlanosaurusRex]

It's easy to want to skate after seeing this! *Looks outside* ...still raining.

[@allangabriel1547]

My yesterday's story T_T

[@Bavmorda]

My almost everyday story...😔

[@Bavmorda]

In fact I've taken example of Bill and Shaun Unwin, and I'm sloooowly daring to skate on wet floor from time to time 😱 It's a great exercise to learn to control your stride, edges, and overall awareness of your surroundings and state of the ground.

[@AlanosaurusRex]

@@Bavmorda I live in Ireland where it rains 151-225 days out of the year, it is no surprise that this form of exercise isn't popular here! I took up skating about 2.5 months ago. Winter started to set in and I quickly realised that I won't be able to skate outside as much for a while. Still, I skate when I can. I got a lovely one in today which fed the beast...it wasn't completely dry but the grip was good so I went for it. ^.^ It has built my confidence up a bit in that I now know I don't need completely dry tarmac to skate! I have been considering buying Powerslide Torrent wheels to skate on the wet but maaan they are expensive..and currently the drag stop is my main method of stopping as I haven't got the powerstop or powerslide down yet so I would wear those bad boys out too quickly for the price. Do you have any advice on types of wheels -other than torrent- that would be good for wetter surfaces? I have a set of street invaders on their way to me by post which I suspect might be gripper than the Powerslide One cheapies I have now.

[@Bavmorda]

@@AlanosaurusRex I have skated those Street Invaders and have no complaints about them. Some people say they don't last as much as others, but I was really happy with them. They have great grip, work for slides and aren't worse than others on wet floor. Haven't tried Torrent, I don't think they make them in smaller sizes like I use... But I don't see any of the top street skaters out there using them, so I don't think they're really worth the difference. I live in Galicia, Northwest Spain, where we have this microclimate also full of rainy days... But I also tell you, I didn't really feel like trying skating on wet floor before I felt really really confident on my skating. One step at a time...

[@MusiCaninesTheMusicalDogs]

I'm always amazed at how much he sprints! He's a beast!

[@Tony-zz8lf]

It’s the best time of year to skate in Toronto... until the snow, ice and salt arrive. Hopefully we won’t get much this year!!!

[@EpicLDC]

Best video this year, great music, love the route taken. I'm still procrastinating in buying some protective gear at Pro skaters place.

[@u.e.u.e.]

11:06 That's *really* a 10 out of 10! 😃👍 Good music choice - fits to your beast mode. Outstanding how you passed the slow bicycle driver in the end! 🤣

[@BillStoppard]

Hey thanks; a well spotted 10! Painfully slow cyclists make me look amazing; I edit out the ones that smoke me!

[@u.e.u.e.]

@@BillStoppard 🤣 Do they exist? I guess they are cheating with an e-bike! 🤪 Did you have time to look into the channel of witch on wheels? She's doing exactly the contrary of your skating - non urban, but also with an outstanding performance (little but fierce). 😉

[@rollingdubaiguy6415]

Epic! Love the reaction at the end of the hill/dead end!

[@itspeyton1704]

That’s terrifying. I love going fast but one wrong move or one stupid pebble and you are flying outta control. Stay safe and stay low!!! 🤯😅🤘

[@magicunicorn6535]

Well, at least they have good health care in Canada. Here in America, I wouldn't DARE skate without a helmet. Because, you know -- we're all on our own here.

[@fernandofringes8756]

If you hit a pebble with that speed it will just fly off

[@chilli-iceolive-abode2447]

@@fernandofringes8756 yeah I recently started skating big wheels and you can go over all sorts at speed like small branches etc, it's great isn't it? 😁

[@WearyGnome87]

Awesome to see you again brother. I've waited over six months to find cooler than swamp ass days to skate in the southern states. Finally. Time to Don skatasaurus and take to down town. #

[@NikZvi]

I miss downhills. I'm in such a flatland right now.

[@charlesgamzehyaavor.6493]

I love skating been doing it for 3 months now I just got a whole lot better with my edges slaloms scissors some backward your advice stay low is definitely good advice starting to gain my style I'm working towards 3-125 maybe in September I like learning skating from all points of view I lost 15 lbs I had 3 Stenson put in 4 years ago since I started skating I feel so much better I love it man it's in the blood and I did little skating 1972 everybody was always fighting back then so I gave it up but not this time around good speed to ye CHAYAH OHAVI

[@Crilator]

Really nice music

[@esqueitcom]

It seems like a great and fun ride, without considering the missing helmet ;) Take care and keep on rollin'

[@OnnoKaell]

Damn, almost all those beautiful curbs have Skate/Grind-Stoppers on them! That sucks!

[@Jenson_B]

Great skating, looks like you are floating weightlessly through the city. I hope One Day I'll get as good as you, I'll keep practicing.

[@SingaporeSkaterSam]

Good to see new areas of Toronto. Didn’t notice any re-hydration - what’s your preference for fuel for longer flows?

[@BillStoppard]

Thanks SS, I'm only drinking water; I'm usually in under 90 min.

[@tonylang7526]

A SUPERIOR ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE -- THE VID-TECH IS ARTFULLY SIGNIFICANT!!!

[@randmcnally.]

Bill love the vids! I am also from Toronto - but I would love to see some vids of you in some other areas of the city (outside of the area south of Bloor between Bathurst and University). I am not hating but I have worked in that area for 15 years and would to see you carve out some new lines in our city. Thanks for the vids! Love them to death, your passion is amazing!

[@battebery]

Well done on ending the music on that last stop! Definitely topped off this dope video!

[@benjiblading2548]

a smile can work just as well as a helmet if u don’t have one on u:)

Nice video, though it seems that Insta 360's picture is starting to show all the punishment it took.

[@hanzstormrider]

Love every your music choice

[@Buttery93]

I agree, not responsible, but god damn it got me excited! I do wear pads and a helmet occasionally. Going to skate bowls or try new tricks of ledges. Basically when the risk of falling is high. All that aside, it takes serious balls to skate like you do. Simply going fast and enjoying it rather then instinctively wanting to slow down. Subscribing!

[@farawaythrower]

3:41 there you have it, he is officially faster than a lambo aventador

Awesome music! Love your videos overall. I'm inspired to do something similar (when i feel comfortable enough to skate with a stick). Question: Does the video gets demonatized due to the music added ?

[@filipivan5125]

1:23 exactly my reaction to one way streets. Fuck me and fuck them too ! 3:40 Bill always racing lambos haha

[@johnhenrysimonvlogs]

Hello. Quick question Bill, I just received my Bauer RS senior Hi-lo (yellow wheels). I do freestyle ice hockey, but with these bauer rs, I can’t seem to do a hockey stop (parallel glide). Are the wheels that came with this skates can possibly do the Parallel glide at least? Given that the skates is just a day old? (Can it slide after a normal few wears?) Or do i need a special wheels to power glide? (I really can’t afford at the moment) so I’m trying to check the possibilities. Cheers!

There is something to be said for balance and position gauging using follicle feedback. I'll wear one when I think I'm falling in a session, or over 40k
