@arictrodriguez95845 жыл бұрын
no kidding. theres something counterintuitive about jumping on skates. you know that you cant bail, but you feel the normal apprehension of doing something intimidating. it takes a long time to learn that overjumping whatever you need to is better than the alternative

Remember the dead tell no tales and the ones who have freak accidents also tend not to talk about it. Think before doing, imagine what could go wrong, take measures to prevent it. Most of us want to skate without ruining our health so we should act accordingly. Also when skating on sidewalks care that you don't risk collisions with people and animals (dogs cats birds) especially with the more fragile ones (elderly and children etc).

I live on a big hill too and it's the reason that I'm far more comfortable on steep slopes than gradual ones. I have no problem linking sharp carves in the steeps and keeping my speed low, but on a long gradual downhill I'll get going a little too fast for my ability to stop, at which point I become a bit of a runaway train and have to bail. Weird problem to have. Crushed a massive hill a few days ago and then got the worst road rash of my life in the run-out... Even putting safety aside, it's not a good look. I've been going to the park every day since drilling high speed p-stops.

@moctezuma_23 жыл бұрын
Powersliding from higher speeds will require you to gain more leg strength, but it will result in higher stopping power. If heelbrake is your thing, by all means! Just don't expect to stop as quickly as Stoppard does in his videos.

Man, I absolutely love your footage. You got a lot of unique moves and you got the best style out of all these vids on KZbin. I would honestly add skitching to this list. To the top of this list actually. Skitching, for those who haven’t heard of it, is when you grab onto a vehicle for a fast and easy ride. I think it gets it’s name from the amalgamation of the two words hitching and skating, and that’s where you get ‘Skitching’. But let’s get to real talk here. I used to skitch as a teenager and One time I accidentally hit a small pot hole, lost my balance and fell into the curb really hard. I remember just sitting there in terrible pain for about ten minutes before I could even get up. The reason it happened was because It was nearly impossible to detect the imperfections of any urban street, and it is that very fact that makes this act so dangerous. Especially in busy streets where there may be another vehicle behind you. It scared the crap out of me and I never did it since. I never want to feel that pain again and I wouldn’t wish upon anyone or anything. But what I was thinking was that in a big city like Toronto, skitching would be exponentially dangerous than in most smaller cities. I think you should totally either add that to the vid or even do a full vid focusing on this subject. I’m sure it’s hurt a lot of people who didn’t practice this safely maybe even killed some. I wouldn’t doubt it for a second. Also the skating world would be forever grateful, I am sure of it. Either way keep up the good vid making man. Solid work and great styles!

Great video Bill. I think another one is checking your equipment before going out. I did a hard session at the skate park one day and the next day decided to go do a hill I had been meaning to try. I believe from all the stomping the rear bolt on my frame was slightly loose. While carving to control my speed on the hill my frame shifted well out of position and caused me to slide out. It was a painful lesson and I now take the extra minute it takes to check everything is secure.

my experience to raise some awareness: if plan to go on grass, check out the soil first there a nice long hill near me (maybe 500-600 feet) that lets me get way beyond normal speeds. after leveling out for 15 feet at the base, theres about 30-40 feet of grass with a smooth base of soil to slow down while turning before the street. i once took it at the usual blistering top end speed only to roll onto the grass. it must have rained that morning and dried on the surfaces, so the soil was still wetter than normal and instead of rolling over the compact soil my wheels bit into it and i SLAMMED down faster than i could even dream of putting my hands out. slammed completely flat on the ground and barely had enough time to reflexively turn my head had i not been able to turn my head just in time, i more likely than not would have gotten up with a broken nose and probably some sort of facial fracture. both collarbones, the side of my face/cheek, and hip deserved solid bruises that took a while to clear i now take the hill as fast as i always have, but i do check the soil to see how wet it is and if i sink or not. there are also a few other nice downhill spots i love to hit too, but those never taught me this lesson since theyre bare dust otherwise :)

It is a good and great advice. That is fact of life. When learning how to drive car. If one takes classes before hands on practice they educate you the danger on the road, to be prepared and reflex. Knowing make you proactive. Thank you. The world at times can be harsh. As riding my bike I get lots of confrontation. Side walk ppl will scream that I should be where roads for cars,. The people who is driving car wants out of their road. Most people are nice. Those few people they take your cool away. Seems like to pick a fight. places in Toronto there are in line rinks. The roads are not bike, and skate friendly. So we just have to adjust. if It's my feth I my die, while asleep. No worries friend.

There's too many ways thing's can go wrong, so on another note just love your use of graphics too high lite each problem. I've got to get in more skating myself. Keep skating

I have big wheels (4x100mm ) and I feel like im not agile enough to stop. Is it even possible to do the stops you did with them?
