How to roller skate for beginners: 5 common mistakes to avoid if you want to look good & not fall

[@n8sk8s9]

Hi Asha - such wonderful content that you’ve created and shared with the world! I recently bought both the beginner and intermediate quad classes on your website and they are EXACTLY what I was looking for in terms of teaching how to build things up from scratch. I am mid 40s now and just getting back into it, but skated a lot in my teens and early twenties But I never understood HOW all of the mechanics worked - and with your videos I now have a fresh approach that I can’t wait to work through in my practice sessions. If you ever decide to do an advanced quad class, I’d be first in line to buy! Love to see content like faster skating outdoors (trails); best stops for outdoor skating, espec when needing to stop quickly; negotiating hills; etc Thank you thank you thank you!

I'm so happy to hear that the Beginner and intermediate online quads courses are working for you as I planned them to do. It's very satisfying to hear that they've "landed" in the right place for them to 'flower' in you as beautiful conscious, correct skating. Well done. I'd love to be able to invest in higher level quads stuff but currently I'm writing and filming a new advanced online course. Unfortunately I have a much much smaller quads audience than inlines and this makes it harder to create more quads resources. I'm hoping to build that up. Your testimonial above will help that. Good luck working through all of the intermediate as there's some big skills there. All the best.

Trying to build up the courage to go outside and practice all this but I’m still scared 😂

[@SkatefreshVideos]

The fear is real especially for roller ksaters outdoors where the surfaces aren't the best. Choose your surface wisely, you need to build up your core skills of striding and stopping on as smooth an outdoor surface as possible and stay away from slopes until you absolutely have mastered stops on slopes. Each of these skills needs conscious training one by one and ideally using full progression exersises. WHy not begin with my 14 day free trial of 2 full lessons to make sure your basics are all covered correctly. If you dont start right you'll build bad habits and they will seriously hinder your progress.

Me encanta mirar tus videos pero si fueran en español sería genial excelente trabajo

[@SkatefreshVideos]

Hola. Soy Sergio del Team Skatefresh. Asha tiene muchos videos grabados en español, hay otros con subtítulos, pero la mayoría están en inglés porque con inglés abarca más público y por eso es prioridad. Fíjate en la lista de reproducción en español de este canal, ya que muchos videos de Asha en inglés tienen su versión en español también.

[@mellenamanda854]

I dont know how i can like this video more than once....

[@SkatefreshVideos]

GLAD YOU LIKED THIS ONE. HAVE YOU SEEN THE OTHERS ON THE QUADS PLAYLIST? THEY'LL KEEP YOU BUSY FOR SOME TIME....

[@AliUsman-vz6xf]

nice 👌👍

[@fivefifteennnwattpad3798]

Hi Ms Asha, Do you know any trusty links/brands where I can get inline blades online? I’m from the UK and I really want to learn how to rollerblade. Thank you! Have a nice day.

[@SkatefreshVideos]

Hi. This is Sergio from Team Skatefresh. The best place you can find to buy skates online being in the UK is www.locoskates.com Another one is www.slickwillies.co.uk However, buying online is very tricky, especially if you don't have any experience. So we recommend that people go to a physical store to try out skates. That's the way to go. If it's impossible for you then make sure about the return policies before buying because it's very likely they will not fit. Lots of people have that problem and it's really a nightmare. As for brands, Powerslide, Rollerblade, K2, Seba, FR, are the good ones. You can see some models recommended by Asha here skatefresh.com/buy-skates-skate-equipment/

Otra pregunta has visto a alguien. Colocar dos frenos de taco en ambos. Patines claro normalmente siempre solo va uno al lado derecho es posible en ambos patines

[@SkatefreshVideos]

Si es posible patinar con dos frenos de taco y te va a ayudar a tener los dos lados bien practicados. He visto algunos frenas con los dos tacos al mismo tiempo pero esto es bien avanzado, pero funciona! Tener la opción de frenar en cualquier pierna es bueno y podrás frenas mas rápido en situaciones de emergencia, pero solo si estas frenando correctamente. Has usado mi clase detallada de freno de taco gratuito? Aqui esta, haz click en "Prueba gratuita" en esta pagina; skatefresh.com/product/como-frenar-principiante/ Dime como te va después de este reino. x

[@skatebackwards]

@@SkatefreshVideos te seré sincero lo que práctico realmente es kárate eso lo tome como un reto claro me a gustado pero no sé frenar nada ningun tipo de frenado gracias por las respuestas dadas y por el link que me has enviado pero me basta con. Los videos de tu canal algún día aprenderé a frenar

[@SkatefreshVideos]

@@skatebackwards Es una pena que quieras intentar usar la clase gratuita que te encuentras en el link encima porque es mucho mejor que todo lo que comparto en KZbin. Aprender a frenar debe ser la técnica mas importante de todos para evitar lesiones y quedas. Pero, es para ti escoger lo que es importante. Solo puedo guiar y sugerir. Suerte en tu viaje en ruedas.

[@skatebackwards]

Pues no estoy interesado en comprarte tu paquete muchas gracias con los ejemplos que das en youtube me bastan y si no puedo frenar nada pero no tengo prisa algún día aprendere y de ante mano mil gracias por tus videos si que me an ayudado mucho buen día

[@SkatefreshVideos]

Hola. Soy Sergio del Team Skatefresh. Es que no hace falta que compres el paquete. Dice prueba gratuita, lo que significa que no pagas por ver esa clase. Es mucho más detallada que los videos subidos a KZbin.

I find that the front part of my ankle just between the curve of my ankle and foot hurts when I do my laces up to the top.

[@SkatefreshVideos]

Hi. This is Sergio from Team Skatefresh. Then don't do them to the top. What Asha said is general advice and would work for most people but everyone is different. Skates also differ from one model to another. The point is that the ankle support works only if your skates are snug, so you need to have this in mind especially being a beginner, to avoid a foot going back and forth.

[@spyke7uk]

@@SkatefreshVideos Thanks for the response, I don't do them up to the top anyway😉 still loving the channel and all the advise she gives!!

*Hi, Asha How You Doin?...I Started Inline Skate From 3 Months...I Learned At Good...But For Previous 7 days I Falling Down Back Side Oftenly...Tell Me What Should I Do In This Case.*

[@SkatefreshVideos]

Hi. This is Sergio from Team Skatefresh. If you are falling backwards it's probably because your weight is on the heels or towards the heels. It's the mistake #2 listed in this video. You should bend your knees a lot, so much that you shouldn't be able to see your skates if you look down.

[@SkatefreshVideos]

Thanks Sergio. Yes he's right. I have a free Starter Pack of 2 videos that will help you 100% more than this video. Click Free Trial on this page and get started correctly. You may have missed some serious points and now you're going faster the bad habits are making you fall. It's common.

Uma pena que não entendo inglês, por favor põe legenda

[@SkatefreshVideos]

Estamos no proceso de botar legendas primeiro em ingles para que depois of KZbin faz uma tradução em varias idiomas. Mas fiz um video muito parecido pra iniciantes em inlines que vai te ajudar mesmo nos quads. 90% da técnica toda fica igual. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fqO6d4ubbr6fors&t
