[@BlackCrag]

That was a really great video Shaun! I didn't want it to end! Your roads and paths are a lot smoother than what we have over here in England. I think I need to move 😀

[@Johro66]

Videos.by.Glenn yeah I'm in Ireland, and I second that. Roads and paths are awful here.

[@Snifffski]

Couldn't agree more, Glenn. I reckon here in Wales it's even worse. There are some half-decent trails and parks but they're fairly few and far between and you have to do a recce first, and for a beginner/intermediate like me it's pretty restricting. Think I need to move too - I'm getting major surface envy watching these flows!

[@FlowSkate]

Thanks Glen. I didn't want the night to end. It was a great night on the blades.

[@FlowSkate]

Please come to Calgary. Great skating and a quickly growing city. Many opportunities.

[@BlackCrag]

Very tempting indeed! Weirdly enough I lived in Calgary for a while as a kid have ways wanted to go back.... Perhaps one day in future I'll walk into ShopTask to buy a new set of skates! Woop! 🙌👊

[@TempestStrife]

Calling out to pass on trails and remembering to breath when a hill approaches is why I love this channel.

[@danutto]

I admire all the skating styles but flow is my favorite, so much fun.

[@loudloveen]

Thank you for the reminder, but it's hard to remember to breathe when you guys are going so fast. :) My heart rate goes up! Anyway, what I like the most about your videos is the fact that you have a soothing voice no matter how fast you're going. I used to roller skate when I was a child. Now I'm trying to gather courage to inline skate, but I'm not fit, so perhaps I should lose more weight before I begin.

[@iluvbiggirlz420]

Man! I can't wait to be able to got up tp high speeds, this is just my 4th day!

[@14kekkaishi1]

2 years now can you do it?

[@eliasar66]

^

[@iluvbiggirlz420]

@@eliasar66 oh I'm way better now. I entered and won my first half marathon 9 months later. I average up to 12 mph but I can ranch up Reach 20 mph but I cant maintain it, that's my next goal. Thanks

[@ArnaSkyknight]

Man, what a nice flow. I just loved how you both moved in this video, it was super fun to watch. Great job!

[@FlowSkate]

Thank you. This was one of those beautiful summer nights. I am glad I captured it on video.

[@joshuaoloyede8600]

I also say "oh my gawd" when skating down that small slope on a speed bump

[@namthipboonnil577]

ขอบคุณครับ🙏from Thailand

[@ArinaThomsen]

Another video, Shaun, that makes me want to grab my skates and go out for a long scenic ride. I also absolutely love your choice of music! More videos like this please! They truly reflect what skating is about

[@Webteer]

Feeling you so insecure motivates me... really, it does! Just knowing that 4 years ago you were skating so nervously like this (it's the point I am at now) makes me believe that maybe (just maybe!) in four years I'll be flowing as gracefully as you do today! :D

[@Johro66]

Lovely flow, very smooth, really nice to watch

[@kristielektra]

Crazy speed! I felt and enjoyed it even through the screen!

[@luizmarques5853]

wow..🤙 magnífic 🥰👏👏👏✨🌞🇧🇷✨🙄

[@wl1830]

Soon i can have my new skates and go path skating again so happee!!!

[@teeteeree3540]

Nice route!

[@IvanSanchez-ht8ku]

I like your style thank you shaun for teaching me your flow skate, good energy, good vibrations ...Namaste from Spain !

[@FlowSkate]

Thank you Ivan.

[@loulougro]

Nice one. Especially in the end of the video it works so great with the music.

[@ernestwhrogers]

Great editing! I loved how you placed the music.

[@mrc48]

Buen patinaje, muy buen ejemplo, muchas gracias por compartir, algún día quiero patinar como ustedes, yo no sé patinar pero ya voy a empezar, ya me compré los patines

[@cloud2537]

Reminds me of Boulder Colorado so much!

[@WheelyArt]

`Love it

[@scoopbabymotivation]

awesome💪💯

[@Martins-Shaves123]

Fabulous flow Shaun , such smooth surfaces , Brighton City Skate is on rutted goat paths by comparison 😂

[@FlowSkate]

We are so lucky to skate in Calgary.

[@wg9601]

I am the 1,234th viewer? I can dig it! Nice jumps btw, I love doing those same-ish 1/8 turns mid air BC it feels like some different muscles engage vs the regular jump. Hard rock on, Shawn! :)

[@FlowSkate]

Thank you for nice comment. My favourite number is 1234. My son was born at 12:34am.

[@BalaHormiga]

We have excellent roads and trails here in the Midwest USA. However your roads appear to be a lot wider and more accommodating. Would love to skate this trail with you guys some day.

[@danieln.4205]

I found myself holding my breath when you bombed that first hill. Quite literally felt myself tense up but a great vid. A nice change to see a long flow vid. Now that fall is on the way here in Canada and the days are getting shorter, what do you suggest as good night gear? We all saw your nice light pad on your backpack and I would like to continue giving you all at Shop Task business. Are the fothon wheels a good measure? (Saw the dead wheels...so wanna try those too)

[@rodriguemensah6771]

Cool

[@Kis15]

nice video

[@awesomecowboyfan8151]

Hello Shaun you have cool videos to watch and I was wondering what is the largest wheelsI can use on Bauer vapor hi-lo Setup? Thank you for your time

[@juliohernandez2105]

Shaun What about one tutorial advising how to control speed on big hills? Thanks

[@FlowSkate]

Great suggestion. I have been talking about controlling speed on big hills with Mike. He has some great ideas. We will share them soon.

[@dshdhdfdgghe9960]

Hi, is that g-form knee pads? Are they still good after 1 year of using?

[@plsstopusingmyname]

WAW!?

[@RollerSkatingMumbai]

Would love to watch a wall ride tutorial

[@ruinaldosiempre]

hey Shaun what's that helmet you wearing ? looks perfect for skating

[@J2thePower0f3]

Wish I had a friend with similar skills to go with. Looks like a blast!

[@FlowSkate]

I am so lucky to have not just one friend with similar or better skills. I have 10+ people to skate with that will push my skills.

[@Enigmaafk]

Hi Shaun I noticed your friend skate frame is position more on the inner side of the booth is it because he is pronating inward . Reason I ask because i playing with my frame positioning my boot. After some reading online if your pronating inward you should move the frame to that direction and vice versa because it causes discomfort or pain even blister. If someone have some experience with this will be more than happy to learn something.

[@buntcher]

When going downhill, do you sometimes get speed wobbles with the wizard frame, considering it's a rockered setup? Thanks

[@FlowSkate]

No speed wobbles on the NR100 or NR110. The rocker is very slight. The NR90 frame can be a bit unsteady on fast downhils.

[@ruinaldosiempre]

man when i see your roads and floors i hate Europe ; ) but yeah , we have to pay them to ''keep'' these good.

[@jason0joon]

Hey, thank you for amazing videos! quick question: I just recently started skating and when i skate for a little bit my feet start to hurt. I thought i might have tied my skates too tight but that wasn't it, any tips?

[@FlowSkate]

It is normal for your feet to be a bit sore as long as you are not getting any painful blisters. Most foot pain will get better with a bit more time. One that alway works for me is Superfeet insoles. They are a dream in skates. I personally like the medium arch Superfeet Blue insole. It helps my feet relax in my skates.

[@vandanakalokhe7224]

Which is your country ?? Pls tell.....

[@d0ttyracer]

how does one even get this good???

[@FlowSkate]

Haha! Lots of practise.

[@KinkajusRevenge]

What kind of skates do you have?

[@aleffoliveira6545]

Qual é o patins que ele usa ?

[@JF-uk9cx]

Great video. Can you tell me about the light you are wearing?

[@FlowSkate]

I am using a home made panel of LED lights.

[@victorxb360]

What knee pads shaun? Is it g-form I cant tell

[@jayretis6379]

please visit Abu Duabi! a very good place for skating. and I'm hoping a shop only for rollerblades here in Abu Dhabi, UAE. SkateisLife.

[@FlowSkate]

GREAT JOB MY FRIEND. In order for our sport to grow, we need local inline skate shops.

[@Toorealprod47]

how long on average do you skate per day ?

[@tannermaxwell7398]

I'm looking for skates that I can cruise with on urban terrain. I wear a US men's size 14. Do you have any recommendations on a model or at least a website where I might be able to find a pair?

[@skurczybyk12]

What skates are those? Do you recommend them for urban skating/freeriding? I love Your videos btw

[@FlowSkate]

Those are Wizard NR100. This a Shop Task custom skate that we have designed over the last 4 years. It is the perfect urban/freeride skate.

[@skurczybyk12]

Shop Task Oh, I see. Thank you for answer

[@arcenciel8658]

And what are the skate of your road friend? fantastic video, it's eerie

[@kathycormiersuntanningrebe7870]

What size wheels and how hard are they were used in this video? Which bearings? You skated over that grass so smoothly. Those are good pavements to skate on, unlike what I got here. Do you ever bring multiple sets of wheels change them out when surface changes? My 87 A' s don't roll across broken and Rocky pavements very well.

[@FlowSkate]

I am skating on 100mm/85a wheels. The softer (lower the durometer) the more smooth the wheels will feel on rough pavement. If you are finding that you are getting caught on cracks and rough pavement, try to skate with your weight further back in your foot. This will decrease the chance of getting caught up. I don't change my wheel based on the surface I am skating on. I just rock whatever wheels I have on my skates.

[@kathycormiersuntanningrebe7870]

Shop Task Thanks so much, I am going to remember that, to put weight on back wheels of skates. I have rollerblades, skateboard and have some Moxie beach bunnies with gummy wheels coming in. There is one thing I found out I love to do, is skate to the park, we have no sk8parks in Crowley, Louisiana, the Crowley recreation dept told me I could skate on two park's tennis courts. Some of the pavements here, I just walk my rollerblade. But thanks so much for the tips, and I love your videos you put out.

[@beefnacos6258]

lol respect for recording and skating dang lol

[@FlowSkate]

Thanks brother! In the more recent videos I have a cameraman. It is so nice to beable to capture the flow without the burden of operating the camera.

[@thesharinganknight9859]

What city is that?

[@warnabas]

Brotherman is it new word?

[@MrKA1961]

How long did it take you to cover these 35 km-s?

[@FlowSkate]

The entire skate was about 2 hours including a stop to pick up a race kit for my wife and the train ride.

[@joseroman7698]

What is the song that starts at 5:30?

[@FlowSkate]

Jose, I will have to get back to you on that one.

[@Edwardsblackk]

what if you said on your left and the person jumps to their left? O.O

[@marcusdionne]

People here in sask dont understand the concept of "on the left" or any audio cue for that matter :/

[@FlowSkate]

Frustrating and dangerous. Are you in Regina?

[@marcusdionne]

Prince Albert! Usually they look, jump in shock and then run across your path

[@imhere1303]

I fucked up my ass and both knees because I went downhil and didn't know the road ended lmao.

[@user-ex7md8jg4v]

Let me see I'm wuderstand,he is your boyfriend or your friend.?
