How to decelerate & stop on downhill slopes on inline skates using the T Stop & Stepping Plough stop

[@mathewdee1632]

It looks cool enough to efficiently control speed and stop when needed ... Great lesson 👌

[@SkatefreshVideos]

Glad you like it! I judge "Coolness" by whether something is functional! If it stops, it's cool as hell!

Thank you Skatefresh!

The wide plough is my favourite

[@SkatefreshVideos]

Great choice! As you probably know, it has to be wide to be effective. The true "test" to any stopping methods' effectiveness is, does it slow you down and stop you on a slope? If yes, then well done, you've nailed it! If not, then this is just data to encourage you to keep working on it and using slopes regularly for conscious practice until that improves. Go for it!

Thank you!!!!! I love the instruction and the accent

You are so welcome!

Thanks for the video, but when I try the Stepping Plough sommetimes I go faster instead of slowing down. 🙂

[@SkatefreshVideos]

It sounds like you are trying to learn the stepping plough on a downhill slope. Why not make your life easier and start the process on flat ground. If the stepping plough works to slow you down and stop on flat ground THEN graduate to a downhill stop where you'll have to be even more precisely accurate with your technique for you to get good results on a slope. Everything should be a progression. I also imagine you are trying to learn without a series of progressions to teach you the core principles needed for the stepping plough to work. Do check the online training for Stepping plough as it really does work for making people finally get the stepping plough and have forever. skatefresh.com/stops-slides/

@@SkatefreshVideos I did do that on flat ground. I push my heels out. maybe I should put my feet out and then pull towards me. who knows? I think you do 🙂.

@@Lindeveld any progress? I was debating joining lessons myself but I’m on 72mm wheels atm so not sure the terrain is suitable

[@Lindeveld]

@@3rdtwirl494 smaller wheels can make it more easy to do the stepping plouch stop. Best to do that on a flat surface before trying it on a downhill.

Nice!

Heya Asha, I'm pretty comfortable with stepping plough as a stop but I saw somewhere you first go into the plough position before doing the stepping part of the stop - what's the purpose of first going into the plough position?

[@SkatefreshVideos]

You can do either, straight into stepping or plough first. The normal (non-stepping_ plough has the ability to shave off 40-50% of the speed (by pushing the heels outwards), so making the stepping plough a little easier at lower speeds. That's the only reason I might plough first. However for many people they lack the technique to actually slow down effectively with the normal plough. It's not as easy as it looks.

[@Edlandish]

@@SkatefreshVideos thank you, I did try regular plough once and didn't find it slowed me at all so haven't bothered since. I'll try work on it.

Lo siento no puedo más hacer todos mis vídeos en 3 idiomas. Cuando tengan los subtítulos en inglés (siempre estamos poniéndolos) así es más fácil hacer la traducción can KZbin. Es la única manera. Pero siempre necesitamos de algunas semanas para hacer estos porque estamos ya con una lista de más de 100 vídeos. Espero que con los subtítulos de YT puedas entender….
