HOW TO SKATE SIDESTANCE (SIDE SURF) ON ROLLER SKATES

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

Sorry about the audio- didn't realize how windy it would be on the roof of a parking structure *face palm*

[@dragonfly1563]

Te amo ❤ Rebel. Im learning so much! I never got roller skates when i was a kid, now in my 40s i started learning... Thank u Queen!!!

[@beequarian]

That’s so awesome, I just got skates for me and my boys (I’m 27) it’s so fun to learn. Good luck skating and don’t stop 😊

[@BucketsOfCool]

How’s your journey?! 🛼🥳 Hope it’s going great! Three cheers for grooving & rolling 🙌

[@bearlydiana]

It's such a joy to watch your videos, Rebel! Quick shout out to my fellow skaters with bad knees - working on hip flexibility will help alleviate knee strain with this move

[@yzz1d4na14]

I love side surfing too cool down after derby training! I can get in consistent laps now I love it

[@lyricwakeland4806]

Love your monochrome moment!! Especially the 🦞🦞

[@Krisstofers]

Then there's staggered stance, where one foot is slightly behind the direction you're going (meaning if you're going right, your left foot would be behind the right, like if you see Rebel moving the pumping leg front and back) here your using the inner edge of the back skate.

[@luablau]

I think it's what's called "ina bauer" in figure skating. It's very beautiful, specially in lay back position (when it uses front foot's outside edge)

I will wait for the skater that inspires me every day! Thanks Rebel 🤙🏻🛼

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

awww thank youuu :)

[@Son.1]

Real in depth good tutorial. Thanks.

[@shychick96]

Can you go into detail about coasting

[@somerollerskater3656]

Really helpful thank you!

[@iamthannicha]

I start to skate and love to watch your tutorial with smile face ❤️

[@mayawaycaster5585]

I’ve been skating for a year and can do all sorts of things now, but for some reason I can’t get this down. I can pump with my back leg and everything, I just always end up going in a circle. The more I bend my knees the bigger the circle is, vs if my legs are completely straight, feet next to each other-I go in a super small circle as if I’m spinning. I’m guessing I need to align my heels more? I practice yoga and can do that open leg position rather easily now…. So…. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong! Maybe it’s where I’m distributing my weight…. You make it look so easy!

[@mettemarierasmussen3498]

Me too!

[@sivisol5023]

same here :/

[@heartsongquilts3925]

Thank you for this video!

[@freewheeler6387]

Rebel You look so good doing this!

[@Brandileaxoxo]

My heart says Yes, but my hip flexors say not a chance 😅 Time for me to start stretching

[@msericaplease]

YOURE MY FAVORITE. This is so helpful. THANK YOU!

[@allisonm7032]

Yay! Thanks for the tutorial excited to learn how to side surf :)

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

super stoked for you! it's a ton of fun!

[@scienzchic1]

I love the title of this channel! 😄👍

[@darciekerr6613]

Can't wait for this, also first

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

😘

[@Krisstofers]

I call it side stance, when your legs are straight, before going into a circle aka spread eagle.

[@NevaScaredHo]

You're so colorful and cheerful 🥰

[@Krisstofers]

Lemme know if you want me to make a video of what I'm trying to explain. I'm going to be posting soon on the BuzzyBeehiveStudios channel my family is creating...

[@Krisstofers]

Lol... I just watched a video you posted 6 months ago, and you even mentioned side stance!!! Lol!!!

[@True_Leo]

I’m trying but I can’t get both of my legs to go straight any tips on how I can get this down?

[@d1amonheart401]

Nice tip just do a vid with all the stlye u can do in sidesurf

[@manondejong255]

Hi there, anyone who wants to be skate friends? Virtually or if they live in the NL just in real life ? :) I hate skating and learning tricks alone.

[@Marsthe_1]

Thanks for this Rebel! Love the outfit here!!! Also!!! What trick do you recommend as a FIRST MOVE for an intermediate skater? I've been skating for 2 years and I'm really stumped on what to learn. I'm also kind of scared honestly lol anything other than skating fakey feels scary. I can lift a skate and go on 4 wheels and bubble. But trying to go backwards or cross over feels shaky. Any ideas? I don't know what to learn first to break out of this. Thanks!

[@shunthe1inserthere1]

I would recommend developing strong edges. A lot of tricks require them and that will help you be more comfortable learning new stuff

[@chia4187]

Cant waittt

[@QueerGirlStraightSkates]

yay!!!

[@skatiesadiemator5948]

This seems to require flexibility in the groin that idk how to get

[@bebepastiche9105]

I just realized I’ve been accidentally side surfing to squeeze through gaps

[@jacobovilla8240]

Side surf gang report

[@Sk8_365]

Me 😆

[@diandrewatkins6705]

I’ve heard people call the standing leg version of the side surf a ‘Mohawk’.
