[@smoothsk855]

Thank you, I should have come to the comments first, however i eventually skipped ahead...

[@B..B.]

Thanks

[@lenagirl212]

wish i would have read this first. Was about to comment the same.

[@MegaMrAlexis]

damn I should have checked the comments before the video...

[@CkPari_]

In short..if you want to just freestyle everday skating without grinding on rails then get inline, if you want to be grinding on rails then get aggressive skates ...thank me later

[@Thisissoul]

correct. except for that "inline" means having the wheels in one line. Hence aggressive skates are also inline skates.

[@Slugcat317]

Ahhh so that's why my wheels get stuck on the ramps all the time and I fall even though I've skated for 8 years.. I have recreational inline skates lol

[@verdiernoyama9681]

And if you want to do both ?

I continue to be impressed every time I find yet another this-is-soul video that addresses a question I have.

[@World.21]

i came to know about inline skating not about bbmx or wwe or whatever!

[@sppl]

Great video! Learned a ton while I try to figure out all the different kinds of skates out there for my first purchase.

[@nicanorbarraza9797]

Always nice to see Diego Maradona doing some tricks

[@Cheldoskop]

Thanks for the video! I just started skating one week ago and I was wondering about this 😅

[@chrisplayz253]

How it going? Did you keep it up 😂

[@UPTWNCHRIS]

My struggle between aggressive and urban/free skates is that the aggressive skates have that, sleek, cool and minimalist look that i like plus some cool colorways. I'm not looking to grind, so there's almost no point in me getting them other than for the look of it. I'm struggling to find free skates that achieve the same look, so wondering if it makes sense to get aggressive flat skates (4 wheels instead of 2) with larger wheels

[@robinwouters1530]

Aggressive skates are pretty heavy, so I wouldn't recommend that

[@sherell234]

Have you seen the USD Aeon 80? Its an aggressive skate that has 80 mm wheels suitable for both free skating and aggressive skating. No need to have two pairs of skates

[@UPTWNCHRIS]

@@sherell234 I just looked them up and st first impression, I like the style and wheel size. I'm going to do some more research and these. Thanks for the tip

[@triple_gem_shining]

Aggressive is almost always very small wheels. Which is good for tricks. But is very tiring to skate around a city.

[@joelmontesdeoca6572]

Very interesting history. Thanks! Question: so are urban skates and freestyle skates the same thing?

[@Thisissoul]

Yes they are! there is no difference, urban skates is just a marketing term for the same product

[@JagoKosolosky]

Hi everyone, I'm looking into getting back into skating, which I used to do as a kid. I have quite a large shoe size and don't want to pay too much for a pair since I might not stick with it. I found a cheap pair of Valo ab1 aggressive skates. I'm probably more going to cruise through the city than anything else. I know it's not ideal but will this be fine to get started and relearn the basics? How hard is it to drive around a city with agressive skates?

[@Thisissoul]

Cruising around on aggressive skates is about as hard as trying to go on the freeway with your bicycle. Id recommend Freestyle skates for anything but grinding www.thisissoul.com/skates/freestyle-inline-skates.html

[@batou486]

Men that does aggressive / freestyle inline skating do you take it slow or do you go at it? I'm asking because I would love to start inline skating, when I was little in Miami My twin sister had a pair I used them before I grew taller and ruin her skates.

[@araz247]

Go hard and that will make the fastest and best progression all around! Go hard and Flow!!!

[@gumbyKeys]

Awesome informative video.

[@coolchris4538]

Great video. Thanks a lot!

[@Thisissoul]

Glad you liked it!

[@elvedrano]

Would the FR UFR + Endless 90 UFS be a good combination for someone looking to mainly do freeskating and rarely try to go to a skatepark?

[@verdiernoyama9681]

And if someone want to do both ? What do you recommend ?

[@patikuuu]

is there a difference between urban skating and freestyle skating?

[@Thisissoul]

one is the proper term for skating on 76mm+ wheels, and the other is a marketing term that doesnt really mean anything translatable to hardware.

Hey there, cool Video. Can you link the inbetween skate you are showing? I don´t get the Name right. It "Aon - A"?

[@Thisissoul]

USD Aeon

[@thememelords9491]

i just want to ask 1. i heard that freeride skates were good for slalom skating and stuff like that is that right?(also i assume that freeride is another term for freestyle) 2. what else are they good at? i definitely know that i want that type of skate but what are they good at also i wanted to learn terms so im here .-.

[@henhenhenhen06]

Freestyle skates are basically all rounders, you can use them for slalom they do pretty decent in my opinion. You can use them as urban skates as well to get around the city. However if you really want to focus on slalom and stuff like that it is more better if you just get a slalom oriented skate.

[@araz247]

You forgot mountain/trail back country inline skating soon there will be electric inline skating as well.

[@riffinphma7901]

hey do you guys shipped to asia?

[@EugeneMaynard]

You missed slalom ! 😂 👍🏾🙏🏾

[@nerdsnoh3729]

Do you have a contact email ? You should totally look into creating a discord community. I wanted to ask if you could make a detachable frame model for the Impala flames inline skate for interchangeable freedom

[@Ax-jm2zs]

good intro bro

[@bladeordie386]

With figure Inline-Skating you mean slalom? Maybe 7 disciplines

[@Thisissoul]

With figure inline skating i mean this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXzYc2asYt2Gj80

[@bladeordie386]

@@Thisissoul Yeah I know what you mean! So with slalom skating we have 7 disciplines no? Maaaan it is so dificiult, I just realised that the guys doing slalom call the sliding competition also freestyle: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3nYc6Knor97lbM Maybe I would argue that one should only call it Free Skating or Free Inline Skating, cause you made the point that it is without obstacles, but if you do freeskating you will jump some stairs maybe or do some little wallrides no? Not an easy topic and all in all good video!

[@trishmitra]

good video :)

[@Thisissoul]

Thanks!

[@edwardtaylor5207]

Great video, I learned some things! Would inline skate cross (also Red bull crashed ice etc) be a different discipline?

[@Thisissoul]

Yes! I guess it maybe would. The disciplines i mentioned all have different hardware too. Skate cross is still stuck on the hardware section and uses either hockey or freestyle skates

[@freestylerollingmedia4706]

Freestyle rolling media was here

[@Johnnysthunder]

Didn’t mention slalom!

[@ziobleed]

Freestyle also have its specializations : ie cones, slides, wizard skating

[@WheelerKyle]

does aggressive slow you down?

[@Thisissoul]

yes, aggressive skates are slow

Guy’s, I came her to watch the comparison between freestyle and aggressive inline skates. Not a history lesson on everything from skates to motorcycles. This video is a fail.

Wtf is this guy going on about....

[@khyrakerr4909]

Jesus Christ died for the sins of the world. He died for the people that you hate, the people that are neglected daily, the people that are abusing drugs, he died for murderers, thieves, homosexuals, people that cheat on their partners, people that falsely accuse others, and more. Jesus is the only way to heaven. Anything else is a deception. With Jesus' sacrifice on the cross, He set an example for us. We now work out our salvation by changing the way that we live by imitating Christ. We are called to no longer live in sin, but fight against it for the rest of our lives with the help of Jesus
