Owning the City! - Inline Skating City Flow Skate

[@mrbuttercup37]

those transitions at the start of the video were so smooth i watched them twice

[@slingshotmcoy]

I'd love to try Philly out, those roads look so nice! I want to try city skating so bad, but it's less tempting when BALTIMORE is your city.

You are my motivation to master the soul slide

[@rerollinginline]

Haha, love to hear it. Good luck and stay safe!

[@wheelsonfire1982]

@@rerollinginline thank you! :) I finally mastered it!

[@Lucidum..]

I wish my country also had roads like these.

[@rerollinginline]

Yes, I’m very fortunate and remind myself not everyone has areas close by to skate.

Great speed, the cardio is 200%, there’s no doubt ! 💪Glad to see that you regained your explosivity ! 👍Beautiful soul slide sequences ! I have my wheels planed by training ! 😅And thank you for this video to see without moderation ! 😉

[@rerollinginline]

Yes, I’m glad to be back out skating the way I want to skate. Thanks so much for the support!

[@Seoulfury]

Great to see you back up and shredding again my good man!

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks, it’s good to be back. I appreciate the support!

[@einarbaldr3159]

I've been seeing you for a while now, New Skater here. I'm amazed by your confidence and technique (Also marvelous video, loved the flow and precision of your moves. Greetings from Bolivia, SA!

[@Micklepicklee]

I'm from Melbourne Australia and we just hit the cold season so looking forward to more videos man keep it up! Also the sound of sliding is just nothing beats it

[@rerollinginline]

Hopefully your cold season gives you enough warm days to get out and skate. Yes, the skate sounds are so satisfying, especially sliding around. Thanks for the support!

[@lordkiller2]

Man it is so good to see on that speed again, what a nice flow, just love it. Bought my new Inline skates last week after like 10 year far from it, I have been enjoying leaning it again. Still a little bit unconfutable with it, but I will get there again. Thanks for the new video, that was awesome.

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks so much, it feels good to be out there doing what I love. That’s awesome to hear you’re back on wheels! I spent 22 years off of them, but things came back fairly quickly. I definitely was a little uncomfortable at first, but after a few months of practice I was feeling solid again and better than I ever was. I didn’t even know you could slide on inline skates when I started doing it again and have learned a ton. Happy skating, have fun and be safe!

[@lordkiller2]

@@rerollinginline Thanks, and yes me either, have never heard about sliding and even power stops on inline skates, that is really new for me. Hopefully I will be doing that in few months. Take care.

Nice flow, Buddy! That City looks alive!

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks, Rich! It was a good morning in Philly :)

[@andybermudez1423]

It's been raining that past few days in my town so I watch your videos to help scratch my skating itch 🤣 Love the content man, try to post more videos!

[@rerollinginline]

Ah bummer, hopefully you get out soon! There have just been things getting in the way of skating for me lately, but hopefully I’ll get more stuff recorded this spring and summer! Thanks for watching and the support, I truly appreciate it.

[@elifustebaytinar]

Soo inspiring! Just perfect and great choice, Radiohead!

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks so much! Radiohead is one of my favorites.

Such a good environment/surface for skating

[@rerollinginline]

Yes, Philadelphia is a great place to roll!

[@ariel.l.borrero]

Pretty sweet magic slide at 9:38

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks! I did a fair amount of magic slides this session.

[@TheDragonsFlare]

Super nice , at what time are you skating, the city looks empty, I tried going through center Philly and Fairmount park in the weekend but it was so crowded

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks! This particular session started at about 9:00 am. In the summer, I like to be skating by 8:00 at the latest. In the middle of the day it’s very crowded and I can’t skate the way I want to.

[@unbornivan1]

why do you use a velcro strap and not the buckle strap that came with your skates? What are the pros and cons to switching that kind of strap? love your videos!

[@andybermudez1423]

The velcro strap helps by having a more adjustable fit and it's harder to over tighten. It's also faster to put on and remove the skates especially with elastic laces. The down side is that the velcro wears down after a while but they're usually only about 10 bucks to replace them. I've had mine for about 6 months now and they're still going strong.

[@rerollinginline]

The ratchet strap that came on my FR1s was rattling a ton, driving me insane. So I ordered the Velcro power strap and never looked back. It’s simpler, quieter, more comfortable and I think looks better. I also discovered that decent wax laces do a better job of securing my foot than the ratchet strap anyway. Laces are key in that area of the skate. At least that’s my opinion. Your mileage may vary! Thanks for watching 🙏

[@unbornivan1]

@@rerollinginline where’d you get your Velcro power strap from? I wanna try it out since my ratchet straps feel like they loosen as I’m skating. Any tips on how to lace up the boots too?

[@rerollinginline]

@@unbornivan1 not sure what country you’re in, but I’m in the US and got them from SG Sports in California: sgsports.shop/products/seba-cj-powerstrap-pair-screws?variant=32146913689713 If you need to search elsewhere “Seba power strap” will hopefully yield search results for you!

[@joecollinsphoto]

You must up bright and early in the morning.

[@rerollinginline]

Not too early this day. I think I started skating around 9:00 am. I’ve gotten there as early as 6:30 though. I like it as empty as possible. And in the summer months, it’s much cooler temps. I try not to start skating much past 8:00 am in the summer.

[@jala_penoss]

Man, you got skills !!! Maximum speed?

[@dannyespada5500]

Do you have any recommendations for intermediate skates? I'm looking for a pair I can take to the streets and just cruise at a good speed with stability. Love your videos!❤

[@rerollinginline]

I don’t have a specific model to recommend, unfortunately. The only skates I really know are the FR1 Deluxe Intuition that you see in this video. They haven’t let me down though. If you’re going to do urban skating and want stability, plastic hard-shell boots with a removable liner (like mine) should serve you well. They’re generally categorized as “urban” or “free skate” style skates. Thanks for the support!

[@dannyespada5500]

@@rerollinginline Thanks!

[@wheelsonfire1982]

If you had to pick between never skating again or never cycling again which would you choose?

[@rerollinginline]

Skating. It’s my thing. I love it. Even though I skated as a kid, when I started again in November 2020, I was instantly in love. Like it was my thing. I can’t remember feeling that way about any activity or hobby in a long time.

[@wza360]

When watching your video on the phone - HD is enough, but when on computer, I wish it would be 4K. I presume your camera can handle 4K, but editing flow would be too heavy. But now days if you would even get cheapest M1 macbook pro, it would chew through 4K video like butter. Cool video, well done!

[@rerollinginline]

I use a 2018 MacBook Pro with a 6 core Intel i7 processor and 32GB of RAM. I swear something changed in my Insta360 software, but this was the best quality I thought I could export. I revisited getting better quality and did! My latest video is 4K - go check it out! kzbin.info/www/bejne/p2TViYqeoMelfJY

@@rerollinginline Awesome. Well done!!

[@outdoorsports6768]

Great flow! I bet you had to buy a new set of wheels after this ride😄

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks! Lol yeah it felt good to do some sliding in this session. I slid more than probably necessary, but that’s intentional. A lot of my sliding stops are purely to keep the skills sharp and practice, not because I must stop that way. It’s so that in an emergency, there will be no hesitation. In reality, I avoid even the chance of needing an emergency stop, but I want to know I have it just in case!

[@pbrown4]

really nice flow! i used to do a lot of street skating, but stopped due to knee pain. any advice?

[@rerollinginline]

Unfortunately I don’t have any specific advice for knee pain, sorry. Skating without much jumping, stair riding, tricks etc shouldn’t put much strain on the knees if you take it easy though. It’s a great low-impact cardio workout in that way. Just depends on exactly how you’re skating.

[@petzku2172]

How much Does inline roller skates cost btw your videos are the best

[@rerollinginline]

It really ranges by quite a lot, depending on exactly what kind of skating you want to do and what kind of skate you want. Decent urban skates start around $180 USD. The skates in this video were $430 USD. I just got new $800 USD skates that I'm using now.

[@timmorphine]

And not a soul (almost), why so empty, where is everybody? (not that it's a problem, it's amazing, I envy your streets, something like this is impossible here in China, haha)

7:24 - "must pet the dog"

[@rerollinginline]

Lol, of course! I almost didn’t include this because I thought it might look contrived or silly, but I honestly didn’t know what was around that corner. This was my natural reaction and I was like “aww it’s a pup” and walked over to it. I am a dog lover. Literally in my wedding vows I promised my wife (also a dog lover) that we would always have at least one dog in our house 🐶

[@ianbuck_oh]

​@@rerollinginline Aawww that's so sweet!! Give Mrs. Rerolling my best and please pet the dog for me! I'd love to see small silly things like that! Adds personality.

[@джин-к4с]

NICE🎉

[@rerollinginline]

Thanks for watching!

[@Translucentism]

You should really do some forward perspective videos

[@rerollinginline]

You’re not the first person to suggest it. Do you mean like pure first-person perspective, or third-person where you would still see me skating, but the camera would be behind me?

[@Translucentism]

@@rerollinginline Pure first-person; would be an easier filming job as well 😄.

[@spassgamer]

@@rerollinginline third person would be cooler, because one could see your body and how closely you cruise around all the obstacles. The third person perspective gives you also a better idea of the speed, I think.

[@dillonmeyer79]

What skates bearings n wheels do you use?????

[@rerollinginline]

Skates and wheels are in the video description. Bearings are FR Twincam MW9 Titalium.

[@kabirchawla2053]

What wheels you are using in terms of hardness and how long it last as per your usage?

[@rerollinginline]

This video I’m using Rollerblade Hydrogen wheels, which are 85A hardness. It depends on how often I skate and what kind of skating. If I’m skating as much as I like, about 5 times/week, I can go through wheels in about 10 weeks. But they can last much longer if I’m skating that much every single week.

[@shueysonnenberg4658]

What kind of skates do u have and where can I buy them?

[@rerollinginline]

My setup is in the video description. I got my skates are Inline Warehouse, which I’ve had good experience with, if you’re in the US. www.inlinewarehouse.com/FR_Skates_FR1_80_Deluxe_Intuition/descpage-1DLXB20.html?from=gshop&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI4va3kMap-AIVjf_jBx1IXQyBEAQYASABEgKai_D_BwE

[@YanVulich]

Great video, as usual! How would you compare 90 vs 100 frames for the city?

[@rerollinginline]

Thank you! I think I prefer the 90s. This is of course just my opinion. I still think you can’t go wrong with either. But I have a 265mm foot, and the Endless 90 frames have a wheelbase of 276mm. This means I still get a frame longer than my foot, which gives me stability. Also, the 90s are just more nimble and accelerate easier than the 100s. The top speed is slower on the 90s, but for my style of skating top speed isn’t the priority. So for a center city session like this, the rockered 90s feel perfect to me.

[@YanVulich]

@@rerollinginline thank you so much! My foot 280, I am 6'1 and not publishing my weight here 😂. I have endless 90 and love them, but not that stable. With 100 my concern is to be too high of the ground and less maneuverable

[@ryancullen2319]

This is the first time I have actually realised that my 230mm 3x110 are much shorter than my foot length. Crazy really for stability. Base relative to foot length must be really crucial, and surely stability exponentially reduces when you go below foot length. I think I need to get some 4x90!

[@rerollinginline]

@@YanVulich yeah it comes down to skill and preference at the end of the day. I can say that 4x100 didn’t feel as big as I thought it would after being on 4x90. But everyone is different. If only you could rent frames to try before you buy, lol

[@YanVulich]

@@rerollinginline completely agree. Thank you so much
