Make sure to lean on your heels when rolling over cracks. When your weight is on the front of your feet, your front wheels will get stuck for sure. Just skating for four weeks from scratch it's still pretty tough but it's so much fun on quads.

@UnderChromey
@UnderChromey 4 жыл бұрын
@@leoninenoble you're probably leaning too much. It's just a slight weight redistribution really and not a full body lean. You want to keep your centre of balance where it is to stay upright while shifting weight on your feet. To get an idea of how this can feel I find balancing on one foot with your skates on on a level surface is helpful. Find your balance and lift one foot, don't move your body, just move weight around on your foot and see how you keep your skate still from doing that, how the skate rolls when there's weight more to the front or to the heel etc. That weight being at the heel like that is what is referred to here.
@Sleurhutje
@Sleurhutje 4 жыл бұрын
AJ You're leaning too far backwards causing your center of gravity behind your rear wheels. Keep your knees bend and in line or in front of your toes. And your shoulders and head should also be inline with your knees. Of your head is too much behind your knees, falling backwards is guaranteed. Lower your center of gravity by bending your knees and lowering your butt. Then lift your toes a bit without shifting your body position.

Hey, just found your channel. I'm trying to learn to skate, I just got a pair. I spent a lot of my childhood on blades so I'm not a total noobie but these things are definitely a challenge. I was worried being a thicker girl that it would be more difficult, or people will look at me funny, because all I see are really thin women looking like goddesses on skates. Seeing you two curvy ladies absolutely rock on skates has motivated me and this video definitely helped with my fear of the outside (I've been practicing in my basement). I love your content, you both are stunning and make this look so easy. Keep killing it ladies 💪 ❤️

Only place I have to practice is outside. It's terrifying. My main problem is fear of falling I think, even though I already fell once on frozen ground. Good thing I have a fair bit of junk in the trunk. The slightest incline/decline, cracks, or anything not super smooth and flat are major obstacles for me, which sucks because that's all I have to work with. Help me Obi Wan, you're my only hope! :p

what kind of wheels are you using? I had some pretty decent wheels on my first pair of skates and as I upgraded to another pair I also got some new quality wheels and that made such a huge difference! I at first tried the Moxi Gummys and they where so super comfortable outside! They are really wide so maybe you would like some kind of narrower wheel and ones that are a bit smaller in diameter but the 78a are a good choice if you don't already own them. I also love my new radar energy wheels!

I hope this isn't unsolicited advice but I got some fundae wheels and I found them really good for ourdoors, gummies are awesome but they do stick to everything, they're bigger and wider which I noticed was more difficult. I felt I needed some speed, they're smaller too so they don't catch on everything it's wild. I fell twice yesterday, once in front of a pram (the baby laughed hehe) and once on a cross walk in front of quite a few cars, I cracked up though cause it would've looked HILARIOUS. If you wear lots of gear and try hard to not care about embarrassment so much you'll find your fears do fade quite quickly. X

Today I can only stand on skates, I wouldn't dare try to move lol. Oh, how I miss those days.

Love you two. I would of liked if you can go over the going off a curb. Also could you mention the wheels one should use for outdoor skating? I'll be going on my first "roll out" with my roller derby team and its 3.5 miles of street skating. Can I use my derby skates for outside?

You're probably using harder wheels for derby, so I would definitely recommend getting softer wheels so you don't tear up your derby wheels. Top of my head I want to say my derby wheels are 92 and my outdoor wheels are 78. I chose to get a different pair of skates for outdoor, but plenty of derby peeps just use the same skates and swap wheels if brand new skates aren't an option for you!

Yes! Softer wheels for outdoors! you can use your derby skates and just swap wheels like @fifilemew said.

I always wanted to try roller skates but i havent seen plus size women do roller skates so it made me conscious. I watched the moxi girls skate on youtube but i stopped cause i thought it wasnt for me cause im not skinny. My dad and mom gave me a moxi lolly clementine last month on my birthday and i watched the moxi ladies after a long time and i stumbled upon your 10 gift ideas and gave me the inspiration to do skates. Now, so far so good. Im on my 5th day on learning. I havent been this confident ever since. Thank you for being my inspiration!!!!

I'm hoping that soon plus size gear will be readily available as skate companies realize that there are many people who want access to roller skating and are being inhibited by people not making their sizes! But I do know that you can find some, it is just more difficult.

I just want to say, thank you for representing us plus size women who are just starting to skate. I decided to invest in a pair of roller skates to get out and have fun while also exercising and hopefully meet new people. As dumb as it sounds, I've put it off for a while because I convinced myself that I'm too big to skate (which is obviously NOT TRUE. Skating isn't one size fits all). Its awesome to see y'all embracing yourselves and having a blast! Love the outfits and your energy!!💜

Learning to skate under my current circumstances means that I’m learning how to skate at all, outside. My first time ever really skating (I think I went “skating” less than 10 times as a kid) was in a grocery store parking lot at midnight (I wasn’t alone, it was perfectly safe). I’m no good right now, but it’s a lot of fun and I really want to stick with it.

Went street skating with my friends yesterday. It was definitely hard for someone who like me who doesn’t work out and hasn’t skated since quarantine closed the rinks. I didn’t even have my own skates until two days ago pretty much haha. They were not all terrain skates but they’re all I could find in my size that were in stock. The wheels and stopper need to be replaced with better ones, but I had fun regardless, especially when I remembered how to actually skate! Can’t wait to get better quality wheels and a stopper so I can catch up with my friends!

For skating outside it's also important to have the right wheels. My skates came with the mota toxic hybrid wheels, and after going outside and falling on my butt one too many times, I learned that perhaps my wheels are too hard. The skate shop had assured me that the wheels would be find for skating outside but I've ordered some softer ones anyway.
