I'm 53 and starting. It's not going as planned. I was a great roller skater..this is a little hairy/scary to fall so far. Grass, here I come

[@Andrea_404]

Go, go! Have fun! Just careful.

[@Itsastart-k4v]

So everyone got new skates?

[@bug8764]

Not me, I’m using the 1990 Rollerblades I found in my garage. But I did get new wheels because the old ones were VERY interesting

[@Doctordooky]

....yes 😭

[@ashleybriggs1198]

this was genuinely an extremely helpful video. when I searched for beginners roller blading videos, this was exactly what I was hoping to find :)

[@MMutterMeister]

You're such a good teacher!! To me, your videos are the only ones that explain how to do skating essentials without confusing me!! Thank you !

[@PollySkates]

Wow, thank you! I think so much about how not to be confusing 😂🫶🤙☺️☺️☺️

[@tamaratravels44]

when I was a kid, I could skate and stop so easily, I tried roller blading a few weeks ago first time since I was 17 (so like 15 years later) and WOW I sucked lol .. but this video is reminding me some tricks. I am going to try it again soon. thanks

I’m in a pretty similar boat. I was great at the basics until around 15, and haven’t rollerbladed again until now, 17 years later. I am trash and disappointed it wasn’t like riding a bike.

i dont know what to do,ive been skating for years and i never knew how to stop,and i still dont know how to..this is no help to me:(

[@leylastatin8563]

😂like me. I just avoid dangerous roads

[@半人半獣]

You can’t really get good at any of this unless you’re prepared to fall. Sometime, you have to.

[@stm-pnk]

hey man I'm about to start skating again after a decade of not doing so and I'm nervous too but you just gotta push through it. get some safety pads and learn how to fall safely, you'll be good i promise, best of luck with skating!

[@AndyMrSong]

Your video is very helpful for a 30+ yrs old guy, who is trying to pick up the fun from childhood. I haven't been playing rollerblades for almost 20 years, now I gain a little bit confidence before going out of my garage😅

[@rohitburra3337]

I do like a hybrid of a hockey stop and sharp turns using my edges. I still can’t do a proper T stop 😂

[@0random1]

Hey! Such good timing 😊 I started rollerblading since I saw your short videos. Very inspiring and you make them seem too easy. I can currently move forward and do glides, yet I dont know how to stop. Been trying to do plow stop, but it feels like something is ripping down there 😂 Hope to give more update soon! Thank youuuuuuu 🥰

[@PollySkates]

Oh I appreciate the updates!!! Practice is truly the best teacher!! 🫶🤙 keep it up!!

[@techguydilan]

My rollerblades just came in. lol, I used to roller blade back when I was a kid, actually preferred them over roller skates for when my friends would have parties at the skating rink. Some of the kids in my family are starting to get into having birthday parties at skating rinks and what sort of fun uncle would I be if I didn't skate with them occasionally? Your videos are great not just for beginners but as a refresher too.

[@Foreverbabironi]

I’ve been blading for years, mostly as a way to get places too and just realized I use the heel break wrong. I drag it behind me, but I’m also left handed, could this be a factor? I honestly don’t know if I’d be able to even un learn it if I but a break on the left side

[@PollySkates]

Hm what do you mean drag it behind you?

[@ClaireAisha]

Hey ,i love ur videos ,but can you show different ways on how to stop while backskating

[@PollySkates]

Hi!! I do have a couple short videos answering this same question already! Check them out and I’ll try to make you a longer one coming soon 🙏🙏💙

[@rickr530]

Rocking horse, swizzles, one-foot glide.... You sound like you were trained as a figure skater.

[@fryncyaryorvjink2140]

I've never skated in my life but I'm thinking of trying it out, maybe in a few weeks if my back pain has subsided enough. Thanks for the tips!

[@ferocious_r]

Looks so easy and effortless when you do it, Polly. Tried just the T-stop today. No chance at all to keep the back foot in any sort of coherent position relative to the front foot. But then it was my first time trying so I guess I'll just keep trying. Thanks for showing all the various ways!

[@KevinTMcGing]

Practical advice; very well-explained.

[@PollySkates]

🥰🙏🤙🫶

[@LianaE]

Oh thank goodness. My mom was trying to help me and tells me to use the T Stop, but I keep messing it up and falling and I had no idea what I was doing wrong. This video is so helpful, I’ve just been kinda crashing and falling to stop, so this has hopefully saved me from future bruises and road rash😅

[@Elixiebeth]

I am a beginner and this really helped although i have to do it inside sometimes

[@karelknightmare6712]

Very good content thank you. I do like how you link different techniques as parts of a whole slowing down/ stopping skill.

[@johncolleto4518]

Ok, ok, I apologize for maybe spamming you with comments. But I'd love to see more playlists. This video is awesome but you're channel covers enough content for beginner-intermediate-experince content. Here's what I mean, you've covered a few topics that I can't find in your videos and maybe they are "so basic" you feel you don't need to explain but maybe a clip on one legged glides, a lil more on that T-stop cuz I wear through my rear brakes way to quick but I swap and rotate my wheels. But that stop is a perfect transition into a smooth crossover (you probably have a clip on that) or just a stop. You have about a year of clips on here, mint 👌, but I want to show off to my friends, and the moves you show off are built off of other skills. I have no idea where to start but if watching all you're videos start yo finish is my key, make that a Playlist first lol, thanks coach P, I'll catch you later. My apologies, 1:15-2:15 you demonstrated that T-stop and even acknowledged my concerned with the wheels. I still would like more playslists, ill watch FULLY before I comment but give me a tad more structure lol

[@YaBoiGibbons]

By far this is the best tutorial on KZbin I’ve seen for roller blades stops. Thank you so much. This will help me for roller hockey.

[@PollySkates]

🥹 thank you! So happy it’s helpful for you!

[@myrap3]

Hi! I don't know if you'd replied to comments on a video from this long ago, but I'm having trouble stopping with the plow stop. I can't get myself to actually fully stopp, I keep rolling forward a little and sometimes trip over my angled blades. How do I get that proper A shape just right to actually stop the rolling fully? Thank you!

Thanks for the great videos and effort! The slides in the end got me hyped and I'd like to learn how to. Are we gonna see more about slides in the channel?

[@PollySkates]

Yes!!!!!! 🫶🤙🙏☺️

[@slavo316]

I don't trust the roads and sidewalks to go backwards but I'll generally use the heel brake going into another type of stop. The heel brake at first is annoying until to wears down a bit. Plus it's a good warning to scare pedestrians 😂😂😂😂

[@fuseblower8128]

I did the face slide once. It was epic!

[@PollySkates]

[@saninnsalas]

When I do the plow stop my feet get unconfortable close that I feel I will lose balance 😟

the T-stop looks like it could bust my wheels very soon. the spin stop looks like i might fall before i stop 😂

[@PollySkates]

😅 more or less true. Go slooooow

[@RealShawnieSays]

Do you have any videos on falling safely? Last time i roller bladed i broke my wrist trying to catch myself. I really want to get into it again to run my dog but I am nervous about breaking my wrist again

[@rspmusic796]

Great tutorial. Your description at around 1:50 is to the point. It happens to me all the time during my practice. But i didn't realise that it can be because of the pressure. Thanks for that. I took a 4 hour course here in Switzerland. Inline Skating is one experience which really humbled me. After a few hours of practice i still am unable to manage to stop without falling. After that & watching few tutorials in KZbin my opinion is that most of the tutorials or even teachers are not focussing on the baby steps of Inline Skating. Like if you are learning a language or any other sport you spend few hours doing nothing serious but just learning super simple stuff. Whereas with skating i feel somehow these baby steps are missing and right away we are trying to just skate. Eventually we may get it. But it seems to me a bit crude way of learning. I can be wrong though. Or maybe there are people who are doing it in a very detailed manner and i dont know them. This is in no way criticism on you or anyone. Just I am grateful for the opportunity to learn from generous people like you. Thanks again !!

[@domicio1577]

I had to learn the hard way before KZbin existed 30 years ago.

Thank you for this! I loved skating as a kid, and am trying to pick it back up after ~20 years. I went out for the first time yesterday but I was too scared to go fast because I couldn't figure out how to stop safely!! The heel brake wasn't working very well for me, so I would just squat and put my hands on the ground to stop 🤣 I'm excited to get back out there and practice these safer (and less lame) stops instead!!!

[@terrablader]

Are those endless frames, they must be because there's no way to put heel brake on them

[@PollySkates]

Yes! Endless frames are my fave ☺️💚🙏

Thank You Polly your tricks are very helpful for me first I will only know how to do heal break. Now from your videos I have learnt different types of breaks and don’t forget even the tricks now I am really good at getting in my class I am in 4th and I am a fan from India

[@GM-pr1fd]

[@colinroberts2060]

Most of the time I've skated was on wood or "checker tile", and half of these I didn't realize existed. Even then, I do sometimes have a slightly crooked form during certain sessions.

[@itschrischriss]

What are good stretches you do after rollerblading? I stretch a lot but rollerblading the other day has shown me muscles I didn't even know my calves had lol it's like the sides of my calves are tender . . . nonetheless, awesome videooo. Gonna rewatch!

[@johnsoncao5461]

I think the spin stop is to scary,I don’t want to fall

[@PollySkates]

I think it’s one of the easier ones, but you can save it for when your feeling more confident! 🙏🙌🤗
