Who do we need to bombard with requests for a rollerskating emoji? 😂

🛼 :D

[@daej13]

these videos are honestly so helpful!! learned how to backwards skate in 2 days!! i’ve been trying to get the t stop down but i couldn’t get it and i didn’t know why, now i know that u shouldn’t put down all 4 wheels, thanks!!

[@FrancisMaxino]

The fatal flaw learners do with T stops is putting too much weight on the braking foot then shooting off into an uncontrolled spin as the braking skate roll outwards, once you've got it though, and can really control that rear skate it adds whole new levels of confidence to 'feeling the floor' with your wheels and not needing to use your toe stops.

Great tutorial sis. You are a really good imagery coach. Keep up the good work. I like the shorter videos vs the hour long chatty ones. Just sayin. 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

[@Nina_Sophia]

Agreed. Brief but well explained lessons with visuals make it much easier to learn. The info seems to stick in my head better. And I have that one specific lesson to work on at a time, before going on to the next. Its not so overwhelming. The longer videos make it harder to retain the information. By the time I get to the end of it I have already forgotten some of the important stuff.

You are the bomb‼️ I learned the basics over 35 yrs ago. I became obsessed with getting really good at it about 3 yrs ago & just started back a wk ago. This is the best video I’ve seen on T Stops that CLEARLY explains exactly what we need to do. 3 minutes a week. Lol I’ll be doing this almost everyday for a month.

[@desawatson3254]

Best explanation of a t stop

[@silby77]

I was practicing this today...thanks for the tips!!

[@kristyc1971]

this is the best video on T-stops!!!

[@marlos7595]

By 2 minutes in, it was already the most helpful tutorial I’ve seen. Just by watching I can visualize and feel what I should do when I get my skates on. Thank you ABOM!! 💜 I’m gonna go binge the rest nowww

[@agento5952]

thank you! you explain this so well, I will try! and your attitude is awesome!

[@hannrkelley]

🤞🤞🤞🤞 Gotta squeeze it!! That discipline chat at the end was so needed, thank you, it really only takes a few minutes consistently, so amazing. ❤️

[@joannamaxwell7636]

I did all the mistakes and found the pinky toe tip helps. This video confirmed how it should feel and I was getting it....now to drill and drill. Be good to see how to add a t stop with speed. I guess it is just balance practice so will do some more 1 foot drills X thank you

[@JCStanesco]

Agreed! It was the pinky toe part that made it finally click for me.

[@teridalrymple]

This was so helpful. Thank you!

[@grriot]

I'm totally using the thighmaster comparison!

[@euge6994]

So helpful! I was doing it wrong and had nobody telling me how to correct it. Thanks a lot 🙌🏼

[@Nina_Sophia]

🐞 Awesome! Great job of explaining with visuals. Im gonna give it a go.

[@elizabethhudson3608]

Thank you! I'm new to my Moxies and this helped a bit! My positioning was so much different then in my derby skates! Thank you for the goal of 3 minutes! Absolutely a SMART Goal! Appreciate you! ❤

[@poisonenvy08]

🤣 Yesssss!!! This one definitely makes me wish I hadn't donated my thigh master a decade or so ago.

[@susanquinlan7426]

Thank you!

[@haibyh311_9]

Thanks this was so helpful 😊

[@G3ologyRocks_]

Yay! thank you

[@bluehill9342]

Thank you

[@sunshinelemonade]

thank you for this! so many folks spoke about using your pinky toe to help you with the t-stop stop, but you explained it in far more detail and how to correct that shaking foot

[@moxiskates]

Glad it was helpful!

[@35nee]

I would like to see one member of the Moxi Skate Team carry out a t-stop on tarmac/a normal road with outdoor wheels!

[@FrancisMaxino]

Are you skeptical about pulling them off with softer grippy wheels on ordinary concrete? I learnt this on a smooth rink but can assure you it works off rink as well, even with soft, gummier wheels.

[@35nee]

@@FrancisMaxino oh I can do them 😉. I do them on tarmac on soft wheels all the time 😁.

[@FrancisMaxino]

@@35nee That's cool, easier on smoother seal and more glidey.

[@Landyfunk]

Thanks!! Was kinda like a yoga Tutorial i liked it

[@chelleliz9348]

What would be the best situation to use the T stop? When you're going faster or slower? I have a habit of dragging my toe stop. Love all the lessons!

[@skateata1]

I use a t stop when I don't have a lot of space around me and if no one is pushing against me. Plow stops are great but they take a lot more space.

[@AlexAppleUnlistd]

Yay thnx I was wondering why I was struggling but now I kno

[@zoesturmey8482]

😜love it

[@SnowWhite681]

Yes to the thigh master!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@NoukSilver]

30-something gramma here. I remember. 🍗💪🏻 Thanks for that explanation. It makes so much more sense now.

[@dianitaedwicito]

Thanks! This was so helpful! 😍 I'd like to know, how do I know which is my strong leg as I was trying with both and I'm not sure at all as sometimes I felt right with both of them... 😅

[@lashawndab3821]

👍

[@jenna6556]

OHHHHHH then i been doing it righttttt😭😍 i was strugglung making it an actual T

[@lifewithtori8218]

I love Moxi

[@bluehill9342]

😃

[@verybadmobilevideos8660]

Thighmaster 🤣🙌🏾

[@eboniemorris8826]

I am right dominant and am wearing down the back left side of my right wheel. I don’t think I am putting the right pressure correctly as this so the wheel that is most uneven.

[@HBSSTC]

Does this only work with harder wheels? Outdoor wheels grip too much

[@mumsie-uk2it]

Why are skaters so anti using a back stop? I'm rediscovering skating. In the 90's we just slammed down the heel. You weren't there, man.

[@moxiskates]

Innovation :) It's pretty uncommon to see skates with back break, unless for children. Same goes for aggressive inlining, they do not have any brakes. I guess the front stop is less in the way for other tricks that are more desired today!

[@mumsie-uk2it]

@@moxiskates thanks for replying. I'm working on ways of stopping without the back brake. Getting there, but it's nice having the reassurance that you're not going to go straight into a bush/car/person if all else fails 👍

[@Ludofan41]

Moxi Roller Skates are a TOTAL RIP OFF! Riddell made their 120 boot in dif colors and mostly bonded swede, they took their cheapest made boots with plastic soles with a low end plate, with $5 bearings and $30 wheels..to target WOMEN because they come in pretty colors. Estrogen..ha..more like EstroJOKE.

[@ccddle]

To each his own.

[@cuppasyrup]

Imagine being this mad about skates that nobody is forcing you to buy.
