How to roller skate backwards for beginners | Learn to skate backwards smoothly

[@bexletra]

"Squeeze the vagina" has me crying 😂😂 because no one else explains it this way. This is so helpful. How do you not have more followers and views. Your videos are so good 🙌🏽

[@DeeDellimore]

awwhh thank you! Probably because I don't post enough due to work. but i have some more videos in the making!

[@Juvenile_Lunatic]

🤔 What’s that mean for me to do then? I don’t have one of those to squeeze

[@kazbrown5266]

Just​ squeeze your thighs together 😊

[@user-qg4td6rg5x]

@@Juvenile_Lunatic figure it out 😂😂

[@Mike_Santana]

Better you than me

[@sarahmcdonough7713]

your analogies are great! like a coca cola bottle, lay an egg like a chicken etc lol they all immediately bring to mind whats needed. people teaching skating seem to rely on a lot of funny similes like this because its such an awkward thing to describe for people that have never skated before, but sometimes their chosen ones are a little confusing or strange, or you hear the same ones repeated by everyone, but yours are all PERFECT. i can tell you have a special knack for it haha and whoa that dutch surprised me omg i know that europeans are good english speakers but your accent is so like flawless that i guess i assumed youre a native english speaker wow!

[@DeeDellimore]

hahaha, i just try to describe it the way my mind sees it! I'm from the caribbean so English is technically my first language and Dutch my 3rd, so I usually speak English at home, I guess that's why. but thank you for the compliment!

[@iheartmakup]

I’m at the park right now practice on a tennis court, now I just need a friendly guy to offer me ice cream 😂🍦lol ❤ 🛼 Great video!

[@DeeDellimore]

😂😂 it will happen when you least expect it

[@SHAYBABY726]

This video taught me how to skate backwards literally a lot of tutorials tell you to swing your hips but squeeze the vagina😂actually gives you a more accurate description for how to carve backwards successful❤️

[@DeeDellimore]

Thank you for watching and happy it helped🥰🥰

[@FernandoelChachi]

Just like me. Why aren't you my neigbor? ;)

[@BleuWraps]

I needed the “squeeze the vagina part” it’s help me bring it all together in my head & now I think I’ll actually skate backwards 🤣🤣 definitely putting this to use in the morning!!

[@DeeDellimore]

Awesome!!! Have it helped you in improving?

[@BleuWraps]

@@DeeDellimore YES! Now I have more confidence while practicing skating backwards because the tips helped me gain more stability, I have way more control, so I’m getting the hang of it. Gratitude!!

[@vestibularmigrainesupport]

Squeeze the vagina made my life lmfao....seriously though, I have skated for 14 months and I love this backwards style but I have never found a video that explained it as clearly as you... .thanks so much! X x x

[@evidenceroom]

I'm 39 and put my skates on..I impressed my 17 year old daughter by bravely turn around and skate backwards..I feel so brave!

[@ucetabarrolle9089]

My 12 yr old, ashamed that I started learning. Lol

[@kiiamarie3881]

Just want you to know that I tried “squeezing my vagina” yesterday and it definitely helps… Ok bye still want that Tshirt

[@annagiersz3314]

Thanks so much! So we'll explained! "Squeeze vagina" ahaha

[@BucketsOfCool]

🙌🛼🍦I keep coming back to this video to master backward skating 🙏 big thanks! Love and appreciate your instruction and presence - You rock (and roll 😂)!

[@shopaholicsanonymous_]

This was so helpful! It’s not perfect but I got the moves down within an hour 💗

[@DeeDellimore]

Great! Now you can build on it and create your own style 😁

[@m4rykrm3n]

I just fell like that on my butt it felt like it was gonna burst LOL now I’m scared bc it hurts to sit and stand so for now I am binging all of your videos as practice ☺️💕

[@DeeDellimore]

Hahhaha falling on my butt doesn't really hurt anymore. I also try to choose a cheek to fall on slightly so I dont fall directly on my tailbone

[@morekushinaforthepushina9570]

@@DeeDellimore Wow, I never thought of that. Thank you for the tips 🙏🏻 really appreciate it!

[@rotienoxoxo]

You are sooo awesome!! I am terrified to skate backwards but I'm gonna try it tomorrow! You are an excellent teacher. Someone needs to give you a sponsorship!!

[@DeeDellimore]

Thank youu!!! And if you know anyone willing to send them my way😜 also as for fear, try getting used to the feeling of going backwards first by pushing off of a wall in small increments.

[@syddawn8802]

Insanely helpful. Subscribed💞

[@xhauntedgoblinx]

This is such a helpful tutorial ♥ I love that you got free ice cream😂

[@SmithOnToast]

Best skate teacher on KZbin for me! Thank you for breaking this down so clearly 🥰

[@DeeDellimore]

That is so sweet! I try my best to explain it the way I finally understood it

[@godjhaka7376]

Now wait til you find an actual US roller skate certified and licensed coach. Next level! 2 of my teachers combined won over 25 gold medals over 100 medals total , over 5 world Nationals in artistic and jam skating and also skater of the year. If you lucky enough to find one like this you'll be more than good enough to compete on the world stage. Good KZbin teachers in general are dirty Deborah, appleusa (she's certified licensed teacher), and Dunbar. I pickup things and learn from many , just the parts I need. For instance. Try appleusa advanced backwards video. Best video for backwards crossovers ever. But her video is for advanced level skaters, and this video is first time beginner backwards.

[@kernowdrewsta]

Brilliant. Thank you very much

[@thaiczd]

I can't fully do it but this helped a lot thankssss

[@plantmagicwoman4386]

Hello...what skates brand are you using on 0:06... Cyan Wheels..black boots with purple..pink and cyan color...

great video! I've been roller skating for a little over a year and going backwards is still not something I am comfortable with. Your explanation (squeeze the vagina) is a lightbulb moment. I hope...I will practice this when I go next. Thank you!

The dutch caught me of quard :p But your video helped me so much

[@DeeDellimore]

Hahahah It's my secret skill 😉

[@LylacDoll]

Such a helpful video. I love the way you explain things very precisely with great detail.

[@DivineSoul999]

I loosened my trucks and wheels but I can’t even do a good bubbles. I bought the C7 skates from Amazon. What am I doing wrong? My skates seems so stiff, seems like they only go back and forward.

[@FernandoelChachi]

Wow, wow, wow. Using Rio Rollers like me!. Suscribed. ;) . I'm starting skating backwards and that's what I like more. I love this video and it will take me days and days but I'll get it. Thank you.

[@kyf5180]

Do you have any recommendations for the best way to fall while you're learning to skate backwards especially once the hips start to get involved? lol I am going to be drilling this one today and I can just see an instance where a rock might be behind me that I didn't see coming and I'm wondering if there's a better way to fall if I can help it 😆

[@DeeDellimore]

Try to fall on one of your butt cheeks or to the side if you fall. And tenst your abs if you fall back so your head doesnt hit the floor.

[@courtney5174]

Lmaooo the ice cream

[@DeeDellimore]

Yeppp and then I fell and crushed it 🥶🙃😭

Can you do a video for people without vaginas?

[@DeeDellimore]

Substitute vagina for whatever you have and it should work 😂

[@CROSSMYHEARTREFUSETOLIE]

I've only skated for 30 mins and immediately wanted to go backwards despite looking loke a flying cow. I was angry that roller skating is almost nothing like ice skating where i can do some moves. Spent some time trying the C movements and other stuff but it just feels like i either lack a strenght in legs and balance or just my wheels are so tight that i can not do normal turns (maybe both?). Yet thanks to you i see some improvement in understanding what it should look and be like. Great vids!

[@DeeDellimore]

Out of the box setups are never great. So try to loosen your trucks (big pins under your skates) to make the platform looser. That might be the issue

[@CROSSMYHEARTREFUSETOLIE]

​@@DeeDellimore sadly i have to wait for the tool for like 2 more weeks because of my living place 😂 I guess i'll try to stick with some regular skating while i wait. I'll work on my balance and stamina. Thank you for a reply. You are a very wholsome person!
