ROLLERBLADE VS SKIROAD DEMONSTRATIONS for skiing SKATE TO SKI

Skiroad Vs Rollerblade comparison doing short turns. These were performed on different pitches months apart. The skiroads are performed on a much steeper hill compared to the rollerblades just for reference.

Great comparison, both look very fun 😊

Great stuff Reilly!!

[@MountainActivities]

Amazing!

[@ReillyMcGlashan]

Thanks!

[@jean-marcauclair5258]

Thanks Reilly !!! 👍

[@ReillyMcGlashan]

No problem 😊

[@rodrigohernandez6750]

Are feet activated inside? Pronating/supinating?

[@xuchenglin6256]

I love the retro music...🤣

[@andrewbolotov3363]

Very nice turns. Where I can buy this roller blades fir ski boots?

[@PlaidHiker]

Honestly I am happy I didn't buy the conversion kit. Instead I bought a pair of PS Next boots with 4*110mm, 355mm base. Not the same support as a ski boot, but for the relatively smooth surface of concrete/ asphalt, honestly The support isn't needed. I can effectively mimic alpine ski carving better than any other sport, with added benefits over traditional alpine skiing to top it off. The set up is heavy, but working up the hills is fun of it's own.

[@jacobuskooijman6256]

On the ski road it seems that you look more to your right side, not so much to the left. Is there a specific reason?

[@andreasm2635]

Hi Reilly,which ist better?

[@ReillyMcGlashan]

both are very good but the skiroad is more like skiing

[@jean-marcauclair5258]

It's the perfect movement, the goal to reach.

[@희구엘]

스키로드가 더 깊게 들어가네요^^ Wonderful content thankyou!!

[@ReillyMcGlashan]

thank you! 🙏

[@KenpoOjoko]

Are those wheels are rockered? The very front wheels are not touching the ground. I wonder what is that for. Great video!

[@ReillyMcGlashan]

the skiroad is rockered, the rollerblades are not rockered

[@KenpoOjoko]

@@ReillyMcGlashan Thanks for the answer. But, may I ask one more question -- at what circumstances the front wheels are used? Or, is it that just the manufacturer's design and you don't use them?

[@alecerkebaev272]

Amazing! What rollerblades are you using? What rollerblades are good for an advanced skier (skied for about 60 years)?

[@papasquirrel5559]

I got a 5 wheel Roces skate that is like a dh board for the pavement, I hit 50 mph regularly on them on hills and super stable at speed. My daughter thinks I'm crazy at 52 yrs old still rippin the pavement but oh well, gotta grab the carve!

[@davidbeazer9799]

Looks like you’re on the carbon gold 5 ski road. How does it turn with only inline wheels? The other models have two front wheels that engage when tipped.

[@ReillyMcGlashan]

I have tried those other ones but they are scary... I didn't like them. These single frame rollerblade style is much better for me.

[@maxwerks]

@@ReillyMcGlashan could you elaborate on what was scary about the dual front wheel setup, it seems more ski-like

[@hansmaier4119]

Are these SKIROAD devices available in North America

[@dj_617]

Are different poles necessary to distinguish left from right turns?

[@ReillyMcGlashan]

🤣 no I just broke one pole from each set so now that’s what I have

[@dj_617]

@@ReillyMcGlashan so it is not that you have one exact same pair.

[@stevemccartney7682]

😁😂😂😂😂

[@jeetgorasia6634]

Great comparison Reilly. It's helping me to choose which one I should go for. On another topic, I am not sure if it's me; Am I correct in saying that when you start edging at the beginning to make the turn you are very gentle, and then as your finish the turn your increase the rate at which the roller blades turn. Is this how you achieve smoothness in your skiing?

[@ReillyMcGlashan]

I will do a review of both with the pros and cons of each. Both are great tools but they do have limitations. In saying that they both are definitely the best training you can do off snow from a coordination, discipline and similar sensation point of view. Getting rollerblade frames to turn is slightly different mechanics compared to skiing (they don't have sidecut or length), knowing the differences and being aware of them is important. The strong adduction of outside foot and abduction of the inside foot with dorsiflexion you are seeing is one of these... Some people call this foot steering, and is very important for rollerblading, but you have to be very careful with how and when you use it in skiing as it can really mess people up in many situations. Knowing which speeds, snow, steepness, and turn types, rate and timing of where in the turn and why and ski dimensions that are appropriate for foot steering is critical. I just saw someone today on youtube/facebook/instagram post about foot steering getting it completely wrong. The demonstration in their skiing was not showing it at all, and they showed the wrong timing and concept for actually where it should be applied in skiing. Unfortunately this person has a big reach and they can't demo it in their skiing and have the timing wrong which will mess some people up.

[@ReillyMcGlashan]

the other thing is, i need to do a video run on the same road...The skiroad sequences were filmed about 2 months ago maybe and it is on much steeper terrain compared to the rollerblades... Controlling speed requires different timings too, whereas i was doing more of a pump turn on the rollerblades which was generating speed and not controlling speed. So that is something to note as well.

[@mborsik]

@@ReillyMcGlashan is that the guy in the black/neon green gear you're talking about?

[@ReillyMcGlashan]

@@mborsik I cannot confirm or deny if that is him.

[@geotechnicalengineer6088]

Yes you are one of the style-est skis and best ski instructors on the planet...but you know as a professional = "safety first". you seem to be promoting rollerblading is ok without safety gear, which it is NOT....

[@boscobaracus1823]

I'm sure it's fun to do, but damn does it ever look stupid with the poles

[@PlaidHiker]

You don't need them. They help more with getting back up the hill. And more with rhythm on the downhills. Get that rhythm going with short / long turn combos, the carbide tips make a good beat.
