HOW TO JUMP ON INLINE SKATES - Part 2 - STOMP LANDING

[@jellijams5564]

I just want to say thank you so much! It doesn't seem like you're still active on here, but your videos are still helping people! I've not been in a pair of blades since the 90s, and stuff like this is amazing for me!

[@michaellacroix2315]

Just want to give a big thank you for your videos. I really appreciate you taking the time to help us. I am 60 years old and getting back into it. I do for exercise and because it is so damn fun. I broke out my 90's Oxygen aggressives again and I am having a blast. I can't help, but want to push it more and more, but being cautious so not trash this old body any more than it already is. These jump tutorials are just what I need because I am starting with curbs. Thank you!!!!!

[@wingdingdmetrius8025]

still skating?

[@viciouskuba4583]

There are planty of rolerkating chanels but this is my favourite. Great energy, great content, amazing job 👍

[@Dallas76JJ]

Hello, I'm an new skater in my 40's. I was learning by giving it a go but I was getting hurt bad and I don't heal as fast. Learning proper technique has help me become a confident skater. So thank you for your tutorials.

[@paul_k_7351]

I'm thinking of this tutorial literally every single time I jump on skates 😂 Thanks for putting it together Shaun!

[@KirraZirra]

I loved this bud. I think the way you're shooting videos these days with breaks of you enjoying skating is a nice new touch. (Having a capable camera man/or woman goes a long way). Keep up the great work. Can't wait for part 3. Nameste my friend!

[@fracek72]

You are inspiring me. Thank you!

[@wendymaduro1546]

I watched part 1 first but it was too scary. I recovered from an ankle fracture 2 years ago, even jumping two inches off the ground is scary

[@cranespud]

same happened to me learning crossovers, practicing single leg slaloms really helped strengthen and getting confidence back

[@whittyskater]

Thanks for another great tutorial. I agree the landing is so important. As a beginner I often land far too rigidly. Allowing myself to bend my knees far more is alot kinder to my knees!

[@FlowSkate]

Exactly!

[@krishgetz]

Thanks for the video. Like the way you explain every little detail for beginners like me to focus on. Very useful to try for Indian conditions where we have huge unscientific speed breakers which can’t be safely negotiated without a jump. For all those trying this, be prepared to fall, so wear protection. My wrist guard saved a lot of scraps.

[@LucasMaffazioli]

These videos are amazing. Thank you so much for this in-depth reasoning as well!

[@RanjitSingh-ez8gu]

Shaun, this sequence of jumping videos are great! Just when i wanted to learn to jump higher and better. But next time can you tell at every move what level it is compared to beginner, intermediate or advanced? Keep up the quality work, i practice every day.

[@igorprice9047]

Hi, friend! You make good videos. Thank you very much. I am your fan.

[@felipepardosuarez2364]

You are a legend man. Awesome videos!

[@zinahe]

Hey thanks for sharing. As a beginner/intermediate skater, my biggest fear is that my feet would slip out from under me. And here I see you do it with ease. Obviously, I'm missing something or didn't get the memo. Especially with both of your feet pushed forward in the heel-pop and landing; not to mention your center of gravity is way behind the ground contact point in your hips; what are you doing to keep your balance ?

[@FlowSkate]

My shoulders come in front of me knees and toes to keep my balance. Thank you for the question. I will have to think more about this.

[@plainuser48596]

I thought I was supposed to land toes firsts then slam the heel on the ground not with heel first. My reasoning was that if I go toes first I have longer "spring" from my body to absorb the shock. But now I see you as well as the guy in video land almost completely flat - so confused. Also that was really cool slide/stop you did there at the end.

[@rew1ndb0yyyy]

hey man really love your vids and its great seeing that you have so much fun doing this!:)

[@FlowSkate]

rew1ndb0yyyy So much fun.

[@cable46]

Nice Mission Inhalers. Looks like a great rink for inline hockey.

[@FlowSkate]

Awesome skates. I am very pleased with the overall performance and quality of the Mission Inhalers.

[@jeanadalla4997]

Hi sir asking for standard size of wheel?? Thank you

[@dompdoings]

Love you as well as your teaching

[@johnortegon2803]

Me gustaría saber si las 5 ruedas que usa en el chasis son mejores que las 4 namaste,

[@johnortegon2803]

Buenos sus videos veo que su patines son personalizados,usted mismo los fabrica.patina en hielo,

[@takerushinjo8658]

I'll get it done！ Thank you.

[@Bavmorda]

I was practicing yesterday both the heel pop and the stomp landing. Since I'm still not very confident with my jumping I practiced this jumping off/letting myself roll from things higher than what I can actually jump. I don't know if that's a good idea, but I find it useful to overcome fear of jumping/falling... Ok, moving on to the next video of the series

[@saborsito]

I used this to learn to land properly "big" jumps backwards. It's very useful. But I had someone near me on jumps double the size of a curb (or more) to catch me just in case i fell forwards to dont smash my face on the edge. At the end he didnt had to do anything, but you never know.

[@Bavmorda]

Albert Saborit Great idea. I'm all for using anything that makes you feel safe when learning something new. My padding and helmet are still almost as good as new, but they give me that extra confidence to try things 😊

[@Катюша-х4о]

Hi, what size do you have wheels on casters?

[@alex_garcia_montaña]

can you make a "how to jump on inline skates - 360 tips" please

[@FlowSkate]

Yes, will.

[@HUNTERGaming-sv9ry]

Your the best ❤️

[@wendymaduro1546]

Chet faker teaches us how to skate. I love this

[@danieln.4205]

Thanks for the landing pointers. Thanks to your Toronto store, and you all inspiring me to take command of my skating from the ground up, I can say confidently that I fully can do this. Mind you, no where near as high of a jump but solid landing. Not to mention me switching my anti-rocker set to a flat.

[@gavindidrichsen1261]

Once again love your posts! Have you done any tutorials on how to fall...? I'm starting out with my skating technique, learning to do all the stops, i.e. heel brake, drag stop, etc. However, still a little unsure about how best to fall.

[@plainuser48596]

It is best not to fall at all! From my experience it is best to land on knees first then stretch forward - you want to have big angle between your body and arms - ~140-160 degrees - so you can protect your head but you don't damage your wrists or shoulder joints. You want to avoid falling straight on your hands in such way that arms and your body create 90 deg angle. But truth be told it is unlikely that during fall you will have time to actually think about it, you could practice falling but wouldn't it be better to spend that time practicing not falling ;) My 2 cents

[@zinahe]

As much as I would like to agree on the "It's best not to fall" comment; in reality, it's just unavoidable. Fear of falling is the biggest obstacle from improving your skills. Because it keeps you from pushing yourself enough to be able to learn new things. If you are not willing to take risks and want play it safe, the your progress is very limited and minimal. I'm not advising to be reckless. How do you know how much risk you are taking ? Well, if you are not falling once in every couple of sessions, obviously not enough. Too many falls in a day, may be you need to take it down a notch. I know it's easier said than done, but it's just much better to accept the fact that falling is part of skating. The quicker you make peace with that reality, the better. I've done my fair share of falling and what I have come to learn is that; learning how to deal with falls is like any other skating skill. The more you do it the better you become at it. I'd say fall early while you are a beginner and before you start gaining ground speed. And I can't stress this enough, learn how to stop. Last but certainly not least, don't forget to "pad it out, when in doubt" as Mr. Stoppard said it.

[@gavindidrichsen1261]

Thanks Z and Zinahe for your tips! I've been concentrating on balance and slower speed skill practice this last few months. At this stage only have a helmet but will be investing in kneepads and wrist guards soon. Eddy Matzger even suggested putting pillows on the hips when doing figure 8 crossover practice. Going to start making peace with the falling when I get the pads. :) Cheers guys.

[@plainuser48596]

pads are essential when you're learning - without them you won't feel safe and that will stunt your learning, not to mention potential injury. Get yourself full set (knee, elbow and wrist). It doesn't have to be top of the line product.

[@Bavmorda]

Also there are padded shorts, no need to get wrapped in pillows ;) I agree, falling is part of skating, the earlier you start falling the better, and padding is always a good idea, not only will you be protected but also feeling safer will decrease fear of falling, thus faster improving

[@fotzegockel1]

100.000 subs!

[@fernandohj.4741]

Thanks Shaun, it's very helpful for me always trying Jumps better but never feel comfortable with landing this tips 'landing :-)' just in time, I try to make a video for progression when stop raining. And thanks for description down the vid my lisening is not good, the true is my English so poor jajajaja. Thanks dude!!!

[@FlowSkate]

You are welcome. This method is the best way, in my opinion, to land. I will be adding alot more detail into land in a future video.

[@beverlyfrederick5362]

Awesome !!!!

[@zahramerchant4070]

What if you have heel breaks?

[@matamata7687]

did you tie your inkineskate laces in two parts ?

[@FlowSkate]

One in the boot and one in the liner.

[@matamata7687]

@@FlowSkate Oh well thanks, thats why my ankle pain

[@cobraonce]

please do a new one teaching how to improve vertical jump on skates

[@davilgamer622]

Sir I want buy shoe From your shop

[@Mamidalaanil9]

Brilliant

[@FlowSkate]

Thank you Neil

[@yesimozturk6368]

What is your skate model?

[@dougfoust9070]

Not positive (and he will probably correct me if I am wrong :P ) but I think his boots are Seba FR Shells with Intuition liners. He normally has wizard frames...but those don't look like wizards so not sure. Maybe they are the FR frames.

[@plainuser48596]

Seba FR with intuition liner, 90mm frame and 84mm wheels. Also it did look like he had soul plates attached so it could be either modded with kit or seba FRA. It Couldn't really be wizard frames as these are UFS and seba FR are SSM mounted.

[@zshocksoda1128]

4:15 YES! YES! YEEES! HE DID IT! HE DID IT! OH YEAH, YEAH!

[@FlowSkate]

Haha. Someone suggested in the high speed stopping video that I could use my hands to help balance into a parallel slide. Works great.

[@zshocksoda1128]

And we are familiar with who that someone is. Sshhh...Let it remain a secret between you and me. ;)

[@William-Webb]

Hey guys! Adam Silverstein here on behalf of expert village dot com! You're gonna wanna drag your back foot behind you and it'll bring you to a stop. It's a good way to avoid any accidents and hitting somebody else like a collision. Nice!

[@jkeiffer]

I happen to be fat in the belly. Also 47. I can tell you my skates would shoot out the front if I get that low. Maybe I need longer skates...

[@zshocksoda1128]

First off, don't fat-shame yourself. Secondly, did you put the stomp-landing to the test to come to the result that your "skates would shoot out the front if" you "get that low"? Replicate Shoptask's lessons and perform a validation. Statim! Thirdly, if your limitation has been officially confirmed, I recommend the Hi-Lo setup. Big wheels at back, get smaller as you reach the front. Your weight will be tilted forward.

[@zshocksoda1128]

Fourth, to prevent yourself from falling backwards during the squat, straighten your arms forward to initiate counter-weighing procedure.

[@jkeiffer]

I will try to work on this stuff. I haven't skated since badly hurting my wrist over 4 months ago, so I need to get back into it. Also, I appreciate your fat shaming comment, but it's not untrue. Having a belly limits some of the things I can do or positions I can get in.

[@jkeiffer]

Okay, I haven't really practiced this yet. But I did move my frames back on my boots. I think the back wheel low sticks out behind the heel instead of being under and forward of the heel. I put the skates back on and I can't believe how much better they feel. I haven't given them a good test yet, but I would say this has made a big difference for me already.

[@paulkerry5583]

So are you jumping from your toes or heels? I find it hard sometimes to jump straight up, and if I get too much toe, I fall forwards too much 🤔

[@FlowSkate]

You having a very common problem. I have learn a few tricks that help with this same problem. I jump a little bit to the side so my toes do not roll underneath me as I am jumping. I will talk more about this in the next video.

[@paulkerry5583]

Shop Task Great, thanks man. I'm not too bad, just sometimes have to retell myself to jump up not forwards. Look forward to the next video 👍

[@deanrugaard8118]

Simple excercise is to practice your jump "motion" while standing still. Some of my students start the excercise while on grass or while standing on the springy/soft asphalt you can find at playgrounds. The logic behind that excercise is this: If you loose control of your skates while standing still, you have less things to concentrate on and be aware of, hence more time for you to notice what is actually happening.

[@paulkerry5583]

Dean Rugaard I'm pretty much nailing it now, thanks for the advise man ☺

[@marsdenkarumba896]

Hey I'm a beginner you move me "Namaste" from Kenya

I'm not that big of a jumper yet, but I find it easier to land from backwards to forwards, than to from forwards to backwards.

[@FlowSkate]

With time you might find it easier to land backwards. Backwards landings are great for absorbing impacts.

[@Bavmorda]

Wow, I've been wondering for YEARS if aggressive skaters landed backwards 90% of the time just for aesthetics... ':D It kinda makes sense, but I'm not yet near that level to see for myself

[@macarelli2097]

why do the wheels sound so horrible. ..is it because they are too hard for that surface. ...??

[@FlowSkate]

Murphy 209 the surface was really rough and the frame I am using is a bit worn out so there are some rattles. Super annoying. Might be time to go back to the Wizards.

[@zakariatoure5842]

😲😁👍👏

[@jokerrfox354]

why the hell are you posting this so late it's almost 2 am??? *Remembers time zones are a thing*

[@FlowSkate]

Good point. What is the best time to post?

[@plainuser48596]

Best time to post is whenever you have video ready to post. People from around the world are watching your videos so it doesn't really matter when you post it - wont fit everybody's "best time" anyway.

[@PsyKeks]

It's a non-question for me. This is on-demand video. We can watch whenever we feel like it. ~85% of my KZbin watching happens from the subscriptions page and in mostly chronological order.

[@FlowSkate]

Thank you.
