  • Everyone when you roller skate wear THICK socks because I went skating today and now my feet are in constant pain and I have a BIG FAT BLISTER on my foot

  • @yoyonene1234 ow that had to hurt

  • can you show us!!??

  • One tip I can give is if you're falling lean back in the opposite direction you're falling. If your falling backwards lean forward and grab your knees with your hands. It's a counter balance via your bodies weight.

  • @ramessadio...... Inline is like ice skating. I myself prefer quads being I skated on the thru out the 80's on them in six packs. It all depends if you want speed and be able to skate like you're on ice skates then it's inlines. If you want to do moves like shuffling then it's quads.

  • I like it

  • my dad just buy me a roller skaters yesturday i just lernm how to do it now i see i was righty my move was right

  • I remeber I went skating last year I was so stiff the next morning on christmas I fell down the steps ya I fell lots of times I almost broke my arm

  • I thought rollerskating would be like rollerblading...I was SO wrong. I have fallen down too many times to count on my skates, and I'm wondering why the hell anyone wants to do it over blading. I've been practicing for over a month and I still can't stay up on them for more than ten seconds...and according to this vid, I'm doing everything right!! >:(

  • @ramesesradio roller blading seems wayyyy harder lol...i like roller skatin

  • Is it just me or does in the backround it looks like a Tsunami

    i mean at 0:04

  • @xboxkid991 .......it does,thats freaky

  • Is it just me or does in the backround it looks like a Tsunami

  • this is a true story that happend to me

    oneday when i was wearing my skates i desided to go on my BIKE ans i was all right for a bit until i turned a corner sliped over and boooooom i was on the flooor crying with my friend not bothered ABOUT ME ughhhh esome friend i hate her for that

  • I used to teach kids how to skate. The first lesson was how to fall. Before you go skating for the first time, practice falling - on a bed or on grass. Don't put your hands out. That's how you break bones. When you start to fall, twist onto your side and pull your arms in. The key is to land on your upper arm. It still hurts, but it doesn't bruise or break any bones. Even though it goes against everything in your brain, try to relax if you fall. Most breaks are caused by a rigid outstretched arm

  • I started skating since i was 5 i was really bad but with practice now I can skate really well I love skating

    

  • i broke both of my arms from roller skating ._.

  • The PC and YOUTUBE, are a blessing you can learn anything on it, like how to Roller Skate !

  • Omg I haven't skated for years. I totally forgot how and I LOVED skating as a child especially in the dark, I was like a pro, Then I forgot how to skate 2 years later. Now I'm 13 I started at 5 so I havent skated for 6 years D: thanks for the video it might help me remember!

  • @casarela11 at my rollerskateing rank it is always dark (circle d) there is a disco basll and some colerful turning lights and they spray mist it is realllly fun

  • I broke my wrist,arm,and finger trying to skate at my sister's party.I was skating with my Argentinian friend(people in Argentina grab the back of a car with skates on then let go and grab another car till they get to school)fell,the splits,and went in between his legs.That isn't even when I broke my wrist.Now 6 months later I am trying again properly informed and padded.

  • Thank God for these youtube tutorials. Hopefully this will help!

  • I want to learn how to rollerskate cause 2 years till I can join a roller derby team

  • i want to learn with one wheel :P

  • oh im scared im going to a friends birthday tommorow and we will be doing roller skating =(

  • @JaydenLovesMinecraft Same here dude, saaaaame here.

  • yay! thank you so much for the video, it helped me a bunch, im gonna do the london skate when i get better :D <3

  • what if u don't have roller skates?

  • you need to bend a little ! the more you bend the more you have balance .....

  • hi i skated for the first time yesterday.

    I fell on my ass so hard,it still hurts actually.

    I do think i bought the wrong skates though,i bought starter skates with hard wheels and it hardly spins when i spin them with my hand.I am skating outside but it seems i bought indoor skates? any ways im gonna practice again today

  • Thinking about buying a set a skates in order to boycott the MTA... Prices just going up and up and service getting worse.

  • I can only sta in one spot I cant move :( any suggestions ? like I can move on grounds but not skating ring.. I CAN move but not like.. you know.. skate haha

  • @okaymichellee Same here! Tell me if you figure out anything. I can walk. But I don't get how to 'push off'.

    How do you 'push off' ?!?

    Any suggestions??

  • wouldn't the biggest danger of a first time rollerskater be, I don't know... learning to rollerskate near water?

  • LIE, i wasn't scared of falling but i did and broke my leg. Im pretty sure it was worse than the fear i had.

  • Last time i went roller blading, i made an idiot out of myself haha, and im going again with the same friends as last time haha, maybe ill be better this time

  • i am 14 years old and i want to learn how to roller skate and i am going to start on 08/03/2011 i hope this work for me.

  • lol its so easy omg i just started got the hang of it 

  • me and my friend are tring so hard to learn its not as easy as it looks

  • when you hand-spin your roller skate wheels, how long do they spin for? Mine were too tight so I loosened them. Now they spin for about 1 1/2 - 2s. Is that tight/loose enough?

  • thanks alottttttttttttttt

  • yu sure

    

  • What a brilliant video! Check out my website at olisrollerdisco if your interested in roller skating! :)

  • So wait, Im a bit confused. If im right handed Do I push off with my left leg? Or right leg? She said it a bit confusing... Other than that I think im ready to try and I cant wait :D

  • I'm 15 and I just got skates I already busted my ass twice. I'm doing what she said but my legs keep opening apart XD is that normal? And what do I do to stop it???

  • @R05ANA lock your legs i skate

  • How do people struggle with roller skating?! I hadnt skated since i was 10, im now 27 and went the other day and it was like id not stopped for 17 years. Its not difficult.

  • im goping skating today and im soo scared my ass will keep hitting the ground lol

  • @tinkyprhunny1 same here dude im going skating with my girlfriend in a few days and Iv'e never skated once and im scared to bust my ass in front of her

  • i cant skate that much tommorow im goin to be wit my friends ai dont want to be thelookin like im to a coward to skate confused

  • What if you dont have any hands? o.O

  • falling does somtimes hurt lol......i do alot of jam skating and tricks and when you start doing tricks the falls are alot harder .just saying. very good tutorial

  • You should wear a helmet....>:)

  • you talking more then you learn someone. i don't understand enything

  • She's referring to your dominant hand. In other words, whether you are left or right handed. Okay, so she stumbled a bit over her words, but speaking to camera isn't something everyone can do completely comforably. I think she did well and she got her point across.

  • Comment removed

  • I have a right and a left hand?

  • sorry, this question is probably really stupid, but i notice her push off looks like she's pushing her foot to the side and at an angle. I'm gonna be roller skating for the first time tomorrow, and I'm assuming that you do it at an angle like that so the wheel's don't just roll out from under you? does it give the wheels a sort of grip on the surface to give you more force?

  • @SuperPandaWarrior Yes, theres a certain angle but you will find it with practise, think in kick out and forward that may help you. And dont be afraid to fall its natural when you start

  • Left handor Right hand...but i have both :O

  • thank you if your actually the women in the video

  • i just got my first pair of roller skates today and im 18, i cant wear them without holding on to something lol if it helps, when you move the other leg forward make sure it lands flat not with the toes first, dont rush things, u'll find things way easier if u start but walking in them and bending the knees really helps too. THIS IS ADVICE BASED ON WHAT I LEARNT IM NOT AN EXPERT so not violent comments, i dont care if we are online, i can get physical lool (rough surfaces are better to learn on)

  • @667863thesavedlinda

    i agree! i went rollerskating for the 1st time 2 days ago, TERRIFIED to fall! haha. first, itried landing with toes 1st, realized it didn't work at all. it took me a bit to kick the habit. i almost fell about 30 times haha, but i didn't!! there was even a point where i was SO close to falling, 1 leg in the air, waving franctically, so close to hitting the ground, and ended up balancing last sec! a random person even clapped for me! :p i really want to buy roller skate now!

  • @LPnigg7 looooooooool sounds just like my first day too, the other time i was practising near the garden, i pulled out half the flowers looking for something to hang on to lol i swear people could bust their guts laughing if they saw the vidoe my brother recorded on my first day the other time i lost balance ended up doing splits lol my roller skates have brought me grief lol cant wait till i can skate it seems so much fun then i will stop regreting about my £45 lol

  • ehhm people from 3 years old already know this

  • stupid, show it, do it.

  • im so scared cause tomorrow im going rollerskating with a group of friends and im scared ill make a fool of myself :S

  • @dazzleglassbeauty how'd it go?

    im going to go in 40 minutes..

  • @dazzleglassbeauty huh, i don't have friends that roller skate, only my cousin who has a skateboard, i don't go out very often i have low self steem and have avoidant personality disorder..... im more scared than you were and i don't even have my roller skates yet.

  • @dazzleglassbeauty did u? cause today im going to a party at a skating ring, i don't want to look like an idoit eighter

  • @dazzleglassbeauty I'm going skateing today and i'm as scared i'm gonna fall on my ass the whole time.

  • @dazzleglassbeauty OMG THATS WHY IM WATCHING THIS TO.

  • @dazzleglassbeauty OMG SAME HERE!!

  • this is the total wrong way to learn to start skating do not do this

  • But how the hell do you push off?!

  • i try really hard to skate but i cant :( the whole time i just held on to the bar. i'm going to curvemotion with my friends at a party in a couple of weeks and really want my own pair of skates so i can practise in my garden without people laughing at me but they are all like £50 and i just cant afford that!!!! :'(

  • roller skating easy

  • dosent work man

  • yeah sure it wont hurt i just got my wrist sprained

  • dominant leg explanation was a bit confusing

  • @yahmana okay to test this you need someone to push you but without you knowing when? so he or she just pushes you at anytime and the foot that goes out to stop you from falling is your dominant leg.

  • I will say this makes me confident but I will rate once I get my skates I hope I don't die

  • @ILuvSpringAwakening2 I got my skate 2day and I almost got hit by a car (I hope I dont die) :P

  • @fatlinexxx i got mine and i already took them to the rink and im still here lol but i did try to swerve someone fell in front of me and i fell flat on my ass

  • Hmm, I have a question. I've been skiing for many many years and the movement one makes when roller-skating is quite similar to the one you make when walking/running with skis. I'm really thinking about buying roller-skates for I love doing sport and this really looks more or less like skiing. Am I right to think so or is it just a stupid illusion that will result with me landing on my butt? :D

  • Thank you for the video i been wanting to learn how to roller skate for years whenever i went to the rink with friends i just held on to stuff and just pushed off of that lol

  • kagome11001 ok you are the smart one my friend has been skating for seven years he is right beside me themiriee was right get your facts straight okay until you can seven twenty and moonwalk on them your the loser

  • Thank You!!!!!!!! I'm trying to learn but I need some help and this video is really helping me! Thank you SO much!

  • themiriee.... not to b rude but those ARE rollerskates smart one!!!! rollerblades are the one with the four wheels in a row. so just think first b4 u comment.

  • yeah skating near the ocean is a good example

  • doesn't help but i know how to skate but im teaching my couisn!

  • Get some inlines

  • Comment removed

  • "Are they to loose or too tight, they should be just right" OOOOOO SHE JUST RHYMED!!

  • im playing the snake!! on the video!!

  • wow im like a reallly good rollerskater and i do not rollerskate like that at all

  • heres another way.... stop bein a lazy ass and practice

  • @coldblud101

    LOL that was funny

    but very true

  • my video plays then an add interupts it wtf

  • when i skate i kind of step instead of gliding anyone help me please?

  • thank you now i can carfull skate with out falling

  • simple trick to falling maybe a couple first 1 if your feet slip out underneath you then fall on your butt it will be less painful than useing your arms and hands and stuff and wit this you you can use your arms to push on the ground so when u fall u can slide a cross the floor making it alot less painful and if you happen to start to fall on your arm try to give your self a little roll like tuck and roll you will look stupid but wont look as stupid as the person who broke his arm ^^

  • @troubleshooter12z Actually, it's generally much safer to try to land flat fowards on your hands. It's embarrassing, but you're much less likely to do any damage to your spine.

  • Okay I won't lock my knees!!! Plz don't hurt me!

  • I have the skates which have four wheels in a straight line underneath the shoe and I am new- they were the only ones available. Are the harder to learner skating? compared to the ones used in the video?

  • @TheMiriee not at all, in fact i find them easier to skate in. Youll get used to them just as quick

  • @TheMiriee heck no, there much better, the ones shes wearing are almost impossible! well atleast for me they were...

  • @TheMiriee not to b rude but wat yu have are roller blades and and in my opinion they are a little easier to get comfortable with..however try both when you get a chance..see what works for you..look up some roller-blade videos

  • imm sooo scared to go rollerskating w. my friends in 2 weeks i have 2 crash on how to rollerskate the last time i did i broke my wrist !

  • ive rollerskated since i was six (im now 15) and i learnt it all by myself. but when i watched this randomly i find this funny because if i tried that when i was still 6 i wouldve broke all my bones

  • I fell on my knees and can't stand on them anymore XD

  • I fell when rollerskating because i got pushed over and i broke my tailbone

  • Press play, and then keep pressing 2 LOL (=

  • Social Networking for skaters! >>> rollerbook(dot)co(dot)uk

  • you said dominet 5 times and comfotable 6 times hahahaha

  • Also don't forget to point your toes out...that's super important

  • I practise figure roller skating and and can suggest another way to start for those who are really afraid to fall. You can try just to open your arms at your shoulders high so you are more balanced. Then, just pretend you are marching without skates. It's a slow movement, that makes you bend your knees and makes you more confortable on them. Your video it's really a great start. And falling won't hurt at all if you just keep relaxed.

  • Oh' Thank ! I cant do it

  • i have a tom and jerry removable roller skate when i fall it is not much painful

  • Rollerbook! Hi guys i've created a brand new social networking site PURELY FOR SKATERS. Hope u'll join so we can network and grow the international skating community.
