It is wrong technique. All these is only applicable at low speed. If you go 20Km/h and higher the only way to stop is like on downhill skies: First of all your body must be symmetrical otherwise you would fall. So you place your boots a little bit wider then your shoulders and aim them a little bit inside and then you start to work as spring, you move your weight a little bit down to the point when your start feeling your wheels blocked ...
@mathsru (continue) at that point you have to release pressure on your boots and move your weight a little bit up, so it is like car ABS, your wheels should never be blocked. Any form of sliding on roller-skates is unacceptable. So that way of breaking is equivalent to slides she shows but combined with non-stop wheels rotation. Of course you cannot stop immediately, but it is really good way especially when you roll downhill and lose control of your speed.
What about skidding, I miss skidding. Lean inwards at a sharp angle and use your weight against the angle to stop. It takes alot of practice, but it's fun, and loud.
This is dumb. I sound like I'm being rude, but I do roller derby, and that's the easiest way to break an ankle. I do plow stops which is were you spread your legs apart, and push on the inner wheels. Or a tee stop with the Side. Check my videos to see.
go to rollergirl.ca if any of you would like to order rollerskates....so helpful and awesome skates!!!! these vids helped me alot. I am really enjoying getting back into it :)
great video thanks so much for the upload, i just started skating again after almost 14 years and getting back into it, im a little shaky, your videos are excellent help and made all the difference for me. thank so much ^_^
Doing t-stops will actually wear down your wheels. It is a handy stop to know, but it shouldn't be frequently used. Doing stopping with your toe stop will wear it down, but toe stops are MUCH cheaper than wheels. Honestly if you are a beginner I recommend doing a plow stop :)
omg my best friend wants me to go skating with him so i've been looking for a whole ton of videos on how to skate so i don't fall cuz i really like him
EVERYONE LISTEN UP~~ NEVER DRAG YOUR STOPPER BEHIND YOU, IT KILLS IT SOO QUICKLY. AND DONT DO THE KEY STOP EITHER, TAP THE GROUND WITH YOUR WHEEL SO YOU SLOW DOWN, AND IF YOU CAN GO BACKWARDS STOP LIKE THAT, DRAG STOPPER BACKWARDS :D
Its a 'T-stop' and it works just fine. Also, stoppers are made to be used up, so dragging it behind you is a fine way to stop when you are just starting to skate. Everyone has to start somewhere.
uhm stopping on your toe stops will wear them down wayyyyy to much you should either do the t stop or power slide they dont ruin your toe stops... you should use your toe stops take off or stop only when going backward and also if you tilt your foot to far forward it ruins the toe of your skate..... thank you

at the roller rinks near wherere I live the Quad skaters make up about 70 % of the local skaters! and In the City, the shops sell 3 times as many Quads as they do inlines
by the way, this is TERRIBLE advice for ROLLER DERBY. DO NOT drag your toe-stop in order to slow or stop while skating derby, or you're begging for a broken ankle. and when using a t-stop, you should be dragging more weight on the outside wheels, not the inside wheels (as she says in the video).
@ivanmaster9 to stop not using the brakes ur gonna want 2 hockey stop your wheels will skid - or - easier t-stop keep ur left foot going straight and take ur right foot and turn it sideways and drag it behind ur left foot making a T
Always be wary about people telling you which leg is your strong one from asking you which hand is your strong one. This depend of the person. An alternative is for the skater to try and stay on 1 leg whilst rolling and see which leg feels easier to stay on. if you can stay on the left leg for longer then do the T-stop dragging your right leg. Ultimatly I recommend you learn the T-stop on both sides.
It's not just The two front wheels, bi-otch, it's all four. You really want to get people hurt, don't you. And, first of all, stop talking and SHOW US WHAT TO DO, you stupid idiotface.
"the optimum method of stopping" - sure lady - and u can replace my wheels when they wear through from stopping - either use the brake - funnily enough thats what its there for DUH! - or learn to power slide - and yes you WILL get hurt - but hey no pain no gain - SKATE OR DIE!
No no, she's right. When you skate, surf or so on, you have a "dominant leg" which mean you master that side. And always (or almost always) it's the same side where your dominant hand is.
no, no i know that about dominant leg and hand (you even have a dominant eye[ it's would be the one you shot with, with a gun]) it's just the way she explains it is terrible
I teach how to roller too... you just watch and try what I do ... bus your ass. get up and try it again.. in time, about 5 months , you'll be just like me. .. check it out....
better not to drag the toe stop and with t-stop I teach you put all 4 wheels, not just 2, otherwise you are going to wear out the edges of your wheels
I don't know why, but I prefer taking the stoppers off in the skating rink. It's easier for me to just do a powerslide...my stoppers get in the way of manuals.
I never use my quads outside though, so I wouldn't know how well I could stop with a powerslide outdoors.
Is there a faster way to stop, or should I just applying more pressure with the T-Stop. With the other stop I think I apply to much pressure, so I almost fall most of the time.
hm...dominent feet. My chior teacher was talking about that today as she was teaching us our routine for show chior try-outs. She told us that your dominent side is usually determined by how you learned first (ex, tap dancers learn right foot first, all us band nerds learned to go left foot first)
1. shes beat.....2. she a cunt... 3. only beat cunts roller skate

honey mama-
Anyone in derby clearly knows how to stop and shouldn't be watching youtube directional videos.
And you can totally use your toe stops in derby to slow down, we do it all the time as long as you aren't trying to immediately stop.
But I do absolutely agree about t-stops- you drag the outside wheels, not the inside. THAT is how you snap an ankle while stopping.
