[@heavenlychill2918]

I was totally freaking out when my thighs started hurting I thought I pulled something. Good thing I watched this video to know it normal 😊😊

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

Yep! You are normal!

[@amandamapes6763]

Omg same!!

[@sandb1867]

3:50 The pain is due to using the wrong muscles (I had the same problrm). It's really about using your edges to make bubbles efficiently by leaning your feet either inwards and outwards. Make sure your trucks are loosened up and your cushions aren't too hard.

[@DallisJettXo]

“All Shakira up in this biznatch” This is exactly what i’ll remember when I go to try this 😂😂😂

[@itsBANKSlik007]

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@zazaa.444]

😂 samee

[@kaitlinholeman1679]

This might be the best tutorial for backwards skating I’ve seen, and trust me I’ve watched several. This is great, thank you! Brb going to practice! Lol

[@laurengordon718]

Agreed! It finally makes sense :)

[@AndreanneUp2Ten]

I was about to say the same!! It's the best deconstructed step by step video I have seen!! :D

[@naniyumi]

I completely agree, she teaches better and it makes more sense

[@optimisticrealismx5829]

Wasn't impressed with this one,she claims you have to know bubbles first before you roll backwards and that'd not true because I can't do bubbles yet but I'm now goin backwards because of sideZwipe tutorial

[@kaitlinholeman1679]

@@optimisticrealismx5829 everyone learns differently. Bubbles do make this method easier.

[@mdmnd2205]

Never heard someone say “comfortable” so correctly before- lol love you guys ! Thanks for the video

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

This sparked an entire conversation between me and Shove! I didn't even know people said it differently!

[@mdmnd2205]

Lol sorry it was all out of love ! I think most people say it and it sounds like comf-tuhble 😂 idk ,maybe I was just too focused on the instructions I noticed it

[@Hannah-nh5qj]

@MrsDiamondd this made me realize I say it wrong lol! I pronounce it cumf-tur-bull

[@KD-dr3gy]

I remember the first time I heard someone pronounce it as Rebel does. It was on TV. I am also from California (north) so it's interesting Rebel pronounces it like that. Anyway, after I heard it like that the first time I did some googling and this word tends to have some debate. Ultimately I learned it's regional/preferential, but a lot of people say kumfterbl because it flows better. The same reason most people don't say veh-jeh-tah-blz, it's usually vejtblz (vegetables).

[@sdannilove]

Yay can't wait! I'm on day 37 of my moxi skate daily challenge, I am able to do backwards bubbles but that's it!

[@sherricepelle4]

That’s awesome I’m on day 3 and I still feel like a baby goat lmao

[@gulsukocak4507]

Sherrice Pelle ı am on day 3 too but I couldn’t skate today :(

[@codyree]

Day 21 here! It’s so crazy to see the progress when you skate at least 30 minutes every day. I went from falling like every time I go out to T stopping and kind of skating backwards( I also only know how to bubble backwards)!

[@gulsukocak4507]

Cody that’s so cool ! I really want to skate better. I am going to skate every day. Before getting my skates I was so anxious about “can ı skate or can I even stand in them? “ but I think I did some progress even in 2 days. I hope that we all skate better.

[@gulsukocak4507]

Cody buy the way what skate u are using ?

[@jodiilynn425]

This may be odd but I love how you enunciate comfortable

[@alenastewart9883]

I love your advice ladies! I just back on skates at 48 after 20 yrs and just realized I’m only doing half the work skating backwards after watching this 🙁 Bubbles on my left foot and not the right! I need to keep up my practicing 👍🏻💕🤗 Thank you Rebel!

[@BucketCharlie]

I just learned how to "skate" backwards but can only carve with 1 leg lol. Going out today to practice! You da best.

[@NoukSilver]

This is the best step-by-step tutorial I've seen so far. A lot of backwards skating videos are just 'do a backwards bubble and then move your hips and voila!'. The carving with one foot was really very helpful. Thanks, Rebel! I know it's your literal job, but you are a great teacher.

[@MartaMation]

Living for the “bubble pop electric” reference- that was buried deep down!

[@jester42069]

this was so informative!! I've never understood other videos about backwards skating before!

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

Thanks!

[@ApproximatelyBees]

GIRL I’ve been trying to figure this out for WEEKS no tutorials were making sense to me and you explained so perfectly, I just finally did it!!!

[@lesslygarza4005]

I needed this!! Thank u 🖤

[@pinkopia8420]

This makes me feel so much better. Most videos skip from backwards bubbles straight into "now you can backwards skate" - now I know to practice those one-legged bubbles first! I wondered why it was so hard to get the flow of two feet

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

yesssssss! I'm glad I could help!

[@silby77]

I'm improving with my backwards skating everyday! This evening I was very impressed with how well I am progressing. I am so stoked!

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

Yessss! Killing it!

[@2sushie]

Such a great break down. Love your channel ❤️

[@Sarah-tr5je]

Thank you for this video, and especially for the pep talk at the end! I keep trying and I haven't gotten the hang of it yet, which feels so discouraging even though I know practice will help me get there. Gonna try again today!!

[@KS-op5hb]

Perfect! Good build up exercises to slowly progress for us newbies.

[@marawagner5430]

[@clauideen]

[@tashagrl456]

Thank you posting this vid!! I recently started roller skating and this popped up JUST in time I wanted to learn skating backwards. Your tutorial is so clear and love that you broke everything down :)

[@smokegreen_eatclean5257]

[@guardingthemoon]

GOING ALL SHAKIRA 😂😂👏👏

[@crystalflores1313]

[@alexandralee4468]

Thank you so much for this video, you had me at WHAT'S UP EVERYBODY 😅can't get enough of your happy vibes

[@charlize3071]

I recently started roller skating and ur videos are really motivating thank u so much

[@yepcahow5791]

ive been watching so many of these videos and this one is by FAR the most helpful, none of the other ones told me i needed to do the half bubbles, they went from bubbles to backwards stepping, thank you!!

[@daydreamer1323]

i just found you and you are the best teacher ever!! i have watched a million chanels for backward skating and nooone worked. You are awesome!! Thank you for existing! Also please come to greece! I want to skate with you! haha

[@guardingthemoon]

Rebel, you are the greatest skate teacher of all time! This is going to help me stop doing a penguin waddle when I go backwards, thank you so much! PS your brows are 🔥

[@KourttneyL]

7:20 is where I needed to know how to start!! This is bringing back memeories from middle school learning to backwards skate at the rink 🤭🥰

[@krybabyy73]

Best step by step tutorial for backwards skating. thank you for making this easy to understand and learn!! just subscribed, and looking forward to watching your other videos

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

Thank you!!!

[@M3rlin257]

My skates come tomorrow! I can not wait, I have not skated since I was a kid. Your videos are so inspiring!

[@jessicaboner9465]

I am SO glad I found your channel, it’s the best instruction I have found on the internet! I love your videos, thank you for being here! ❤️

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

thank you!

[@rachaelburton6019]

This was soooooo fricking helpful! Just got my skates today! It’s about to be ON!

[@restlessxxwild]

this is the most informative backwards skating video i've seen on here so far! a lot of them started right off with bubbles. This didn't seem that difficult in theory since i'm comfortable skating forward/bubbling forward. But starting right off there has been so hard and confusing on my muscles. I can't wait to try all of these steps to work up to it! Thank you so much! Your channel has helped me get back into skating :)

[@bleepblorp879]

so glad I found your channel! your explanation makes the most sense to me.

[@lovelifeisgoodliveit3444]

Same

[@captainknapton]

That looks like my grandma and grandads ( and dads ) neighborhood in Long Beach that they lived in . They lived on Mc Nabb off of Harco off of Woodruff....however there are like 50 blocks that look just like this lol I miss all 3 of them so much 😢 though I miss them this video brought back good memories of me roller skating there and I loved it bc my neighborhood in the SouthBay of LA had a ton of hills lol which were cool but it was fun to effortlessly skate without having to worry about hills cars etc . Awesome video ❤💯

[@bridgettemarcella]

This helped a lot, thank you

[@p45729]

thanks for the video!! on a side note i adore your outfit

[@roocameron2948]

This is by far the BEST tutorial I have seen. so many other videos just say 'backwards bubbles' but never explain how! Thank you So much!

[@maeveflynn8614]

thank you so much!! ive been trying to figure this out for so long, you're blowing my mind this is the most straightforward tutorial ive seen

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

I'm trying to be as clear as possible!

[@godisgoodprince7056]

I watched a lot of other people's videos about how to skate backwards, but your video was the one that clicked for me. Nicely ordered and detailed. Practicing those bubbles really helped, as well as knowing where to put my weight going through the maneuver. I have been making good progress. Thank you.

[@cscha101]

This is super helpful, even though it was made and uploaded two years ago, thank you so much for your work!
