How to skate a bowl! Bowl skaters!One step at a time🌱

Hey loves! I am soooo excited about this video. It’s the first of many inside a bowl. I’m stoked the way it turned out. My entire life I’ve had a hard time expressing my thoughts out loud so when I began breaking down my process in skating a bowl, I was determined to get it out right. I’m proud of what Dalton and I put together and it has sparked more creativity for bowl skating. We hope you enjoy this video. BOWLS BOWLS BOWLS! They are my favorite thing to shred in a park.
Have fun, take it slow. 🌱
One huge love to you brother and sister.

I love your teaching method very relaxed you take your time to feel out the bowl and then pick out the line your going to take.

[@flowersherolls1700]

Hey Simon! Thanks for being here. I am grateful for your feedback as it keeps the fire burning to teach. Thank you. One love 🌱

[@sunconscious]

this vid is so perfect for learning to 'think park' and get comfortable and safe in a bowl..... thanks for the walk through!

[@boseph97]

You must be a unicorn; no way you actually exist with those levels of flow/skill/looks. Solid vid, thanks for the tips

[@johnconning6247]

whoa! did i just stumble onto the perfect vid to give me confidence to tackle bowls? I think I did. thank you

[@leilanicardoza]

i found your channel on my recommended and now i’m binge watching 😂

"Game of Memory" was the keyword for me. Thanks for that. 💪

Sick!!!!😊

[@JohnnyBlaze6954]

It’s been 21 years since I skated and I JUST got a pair of USD Sway IV skates. My last pair were Solomon ST 8’s around 1999 I’d guess! Thank you so much for making these videos! Definitely didn’t have them back in the mid 90’s when I first learned!

[@MixinMum1210]

How’s the skating going?

[@JohnnyBlaze6954]

@@MixinMum1210it’s going well!! Haven’t been able to go as much as I’d like due to work but i try to go 3-5x a month! It’s such a great leg work out!! I’m having lots of fun just flowing and rolling around the bowl and half pipes! No big tricks or anything, almost 40 haha so we’ll see. Just basic grinds!

[@MixinMum1210]

@@JohnnyBlaze6954 Glad it’s going well. I decided to start park skating in December, I’d just turned 51 😆 I haven’t got out as much as I’d liked but hopefully now the longer evenings are here I can skate more.

[@hello_dude2321]

​@MixinMum1210 weird question but is it rare to see a young aggressive skater under 15?😢

[@boseph97]

@@hello_dude2321 it is rare these days but totally awesome. Almost everyone I see commenting on online vids and at my local skate park are 30-50 y/o dudes that’ve decided to get back into it. Because it’s awesome and fun and beats sitting on the couch watching netflix. Most inline skaters know the history/journey of the sport. It needs more youngsters getting into it!

[@c.e.m7535]

Love your channel and down to earth demeanor. Very cool!

[@foxgloveandflannel]

Thanks for this video. I am a new skater and watch people skate bowls on videos. They always make it look so easy but now i see that they have familiarized themselves with the bowl and HOW to do it. ❤

[@plarks-guddaboyz]

Yo your channel is amazing. So helpful & also makes it look achievable the way you walk us through from ground up. Not as easy as you make it look but the steps worked when I pushed through. Thanks heaps.

[@FLM142]

Great video, you make it look easy and I'll be trying a bowl very soon.

[@timtaylor9590]

a few tips, i would avoid coping and grinding all together to work on pumping and flow. finding a steep bowl is more helpful to gain skill because your working the wall more. going to a flat set up can help alot for turning/carving and when carving the top foot should lead or side by side worse case. pumping pockets or corners is just like pumping normal vert but its sideways so thats a good way to think about it. the very top of the corner is like the bottom of the vert. keep speed as you ride up allow your legs to accept the ramp by bending more as you reach the apex is when you pump or push away from the wall/ramp, just like when going down vert at the bottom is when legs are more extended, that is how you generate speed, then from there quickly get rdy to pump at the bottom of the bowl like you normally would. definitely get good and understand how to pump a half pipe before going to bowls. bowls are the number one thing inline ppl neglect. using arms is very important too, its an interesting dynamic cuz carving a bowl is like adding another dimension from just normal vert.

[@loubrek6034]

Super promotion du bowl. Merci et bonne continuation

[@briloheim]

Great video! Lots of helpful tips... the quick section where you were running through and imagining the line your were about to skate and the camera following it was really cool. Ive heard a lot of people who, in various crafts talk about when learning or doing something new, visualizing what it is your trying to achieve really helps the learning process. Thats what that section felt like

[@ryankelly5729]

I just went to this exact park for the first time on my blades today I loved it. I can’t even drop into the bowl yet , because it’s a bit scary. But! I did over come 5 other drop ins else where in the park and rode around the bowl ! I was there for 3-4 hours best park I’ve ever been to personally!

I definitely know what you mean about your legs aching at the end, I spent 2 hours learning stalls yesterday and my legs were completely rinsed. Really sore quads this morning 😂 great video.

I have just discovered this channel, some of the best tutorials I have watched. I had a look through the channel, anyone know if there are any videos on getting bigger air above coping? That's something I am really struggling with

[@rickyrichreacts9667]

You’re such a badass skater

[@iAmEmman]

shes so chill and cute

[@bwade79]

What kind of skates are good for flowing around a skate park. Can you use just urban skates or is it best to use an aggressive skate? Thanks

[@jhope5994]

cool vid. where is this?

[@kylegault1031]

Hooyah bowls! Ya know you weren’t far off by calling it a sea shell. I’ve always heard it as a clam shell. Lol. The Wife likes that you called it a sea shell. Love the channel and tutorials.

Damn you're amazing

[@daniellewinton2398]

How often is a skate park ever completely empty?

[@fajaragungrachmatullah9986]

can you make a tutorial video on how to grind curve rail of bowl ?

[@flowersherolls1700]

Hey! Thanks for tuning in and for throwing out ideas. I’ll be getting deeper into bowls eventually. It’s not time for yet.. but soon. You really have to angle up to the coping. Pump up the bowl while coming at an angle. A big angle. You’ll go farther. You got it! 💯 don’t give up. One love Fajar🌱

[@es1489]

What kind of blades are those?

[@aegiDiusMrChef]

Is it cheat to press like before u have seen the video yet? 😅 I'm still kinda green, but i'm into the bowls now with small front and backside grinds, souls, makio's bla bla bla.. but i'm not that happy with bowls that have different sections, like the oldschool pool bowls a lot more for learning in the start - so if ur a beginner i would suggest u too find a elipse bowl first with same height all a round ;)! Cant wait to skate tomorrow again, best times right now. Ps. Kinda wierd question, but is that ur blade clothes or do u wear anything else? 🙃

[@ericksabinopatins]

the question is how to get so fluid when riding a bowl

[@uu3903]

Can't cheat practice and hours on wheels.

YOUR SO PRETTYYY:):):)

[@macmama5941]

Can you use regular rollerblades or the bowl needs specific bowl wheels?

[@michaelmiller6051]

You can use regular inline skates if you don't care about grinding. Just remove the brake. It can scrape against the ground and slow you down in the bowl.

[@유종화-c4c]

thank you

[@ballofwasabi]

"keep it at your minimal basic safety tricks" then proceeds to backside stall

[@carl1011]

Where is this bowl

[@omaralfaro13]

Are these roller blades or roller skates?

[@michaelmiller6051]

Aggressive inline skates (roller blades).

[@bobbyhavoc26262000]

I would recommend wearing a helmet especially skating a bowl not worth it to hit your head in the concrete . The angle of the quarters one mistake and you can fall very easy other than that you are awesome Blader I love your style . If you ever come to Barbados check the Kaitif skatepark .Bobby from Barbados
