Doublepush for Dummies - Learn the fastest skating technique in one day!

[@mekkuper6746]

This guy is more persistent in teaching me the double push technique than I am to learn it. Thank you!

[@80skates]

Hey Viktor I took up inline skating at 67. All these tips are reducing my learning curve exponentially. Thank you 👍

Ловко у вас получается, Виктор. Буду учиться у вас.

Im a 58 year old former 🇺🇸 USA Collegiate NCAA All American middle distance runner. Jogging for fitness tears up your knees. It took mine years, but my knees are shot now as far as running goes. Then I rode bike for 17 years and finally developed "male problems" due to saddle crushing the perineum (those seats with a "safety gap" down center are actually WORSE) - leading to depression and loss of career. I should have gone straight to inline skating right after my college running career ended in the late 80s. Before taking up cycling I bought a nice pair of K2 rollerblades in 1997 - but never used them unfortunately. If I went straight to inline skating (instead of cycling) my life would be a lot better and I'd still have my teaching career. Last year K2 had a wild sale and I got in to inline skating for the first time News: .Inline skating in ZERO impact to the knees. Along with swimming walking and hill hiking, it's a superior form of exercise. So: make inline skating your lifetime cardio exercise. Its one of the very best. 👍

You always keeps it so simple straight forward my kid is 7yrs old and he loves your way of skatting very much

Thanks victor

[@carstenlynggaard9337]

👍🏻. Thanks - great video 😊

[@vn5051]

I will try this tomorrow in my practice and hope to increase speed and skate longer

[@HrxSkating]

Thanks Sir

I am u r big fan victor

Where was this filmed at?It looks like a great place to walk,bike and roller blade.I'm also old school,I would be roller skating which I greatly miss.

[@ThiloSpeedster]

Skating (or better accelerating) with the outside edge is really important for the Double Push. But the movement of the skates to the outside edge in the DP is a result of a proper weight transfer. So if you just train your legs, without moving your hips (your center go gravity) it is just outside edge show skating.

[@mpeltz1534]

Thank you Victor! I have been working on this technique for several month now. I'm not there yet but it is getting better. Something that is happening however is the increase in speed is freeking me out. As the speed increases I become apprehensive and end up coasting and slowing down! I'm hoping this will fix it self as I get more comfortable with the technique?

[@Stepanmc]

Very good explanation. Is there any training/excercise for beginners to get used to that position when your leg is underneath but tilted and going to a different side first before making a regular push? Pretty unnatural position and movement. Maybe exercising crossovers can help to feel that unnatural balance?

[@pokechopachunky2905]

Before I got into skating, I overheard a skater talking to a guy about the double push, and he was standing next to the Porta potty. I always thought it was about something else 😂😂

[@victorwong9622]

Won’t learn it in one single day or after a single video? How hard could it be??? Great lesson, thanks!

[@johannesspreekt5853]

Hi Viktor, great video again! I have a hard time creating a smooth transition from the under push to the regular push especially when there is more resistance (e.g. head wind). It feels like I lose a lot of speed / traction instead of adding it up. When I have a tailwind or it walks down it is easy to create a smooth transition and keep the speed. Any idea what is going wrong? Any tips how to improve? I'm really stuck on this and I can't find a way to improve on this.

[@Throttle0496]

I have the same issue, you've perfectly described it. Sometimes though I can catch the moments when skates start rolling faster during the underpush without much effort from my side. It's hard to describe, like you start flying instead of struggling. Not sure if it is the right feeling or not, but it seems to be connected to a different timing I apply or a leg position. Anyway, curious about what Viktor can suggest.

[@santanukundu1817]

Hi victor : I observed and hard your opinion that 'in double push the landing of wheel should be Inner edge than under push after that outer edge'. Is it? Please suggest.

[@thorupviktor]

In this video/technical drill, I suggest putting it down on top, and then tilting towards the outer edge, until you start you classic push on the inner. When skating normally you’d want it to be on a slight outer as you touch the ground, ready to apply immediate pressure in the first part of your two pushes :)

Hey guys I come from hockey but quit some yrs ago and have now gained interest in inline speedskating. However I'm still to aquire actual speedskates and for the time being I still use my hockey inline skates with 76/80 mm set up. I find it hard to maintain speed over 25 km/h with these, and doing the double push just doesn't seem to "flow" at that speed if you know what I mean? Am I on to something here (needs higher speed) or do I just suck? Thanks! /P

[@andre1987eph]

You have a head star if you already know how to skate on ice well.

[@gordonhorse4283]

Want to get a skate that better at doing 124 km than my lightning speed 90mm. Tried the Maximum edge 3w 125mm but they hurt after 30 km. Have a wide foot. Maybe the Rollerblade with the removable cuffs. Is there a way I could make them in to a 4 wheel 110 set up so I can have a 3 wheel and a 4 wheel set up. Really would appreciate some help

[@lisapet160]

2:48 I am that center of gravity dummy and till this video was doing 1.5x push instead of 2x.

[@niftynarwhal2805]

Finally a video for me specifically lmao

[@kishascape]

Is this only for if your doing leaned forward speedskate style? Not for mostly just skate recreational more upright for commute?

[@lukeorlando4814]

I don’t know why I’m even watching this. I don’t one a pair of wheels and all the paths around here are 70cm wide while also full cracks holes lumps leaves rocks dog dumping.
