speed skating

[KaramelLolaBunnie91]

speed skating requires a-lot of focus,bravery,and endurance.

[paskanmarjat1]

whats up with that weird style XDD

[8Menachi8]

@paskanmarjat1 It's called the double push, very effective. Chad Hedrics invented it.

[siedlikmasterek]

@jeegoi WTF?

[benjamin21444]

[Spencerh1279]

[Speedsk8rgeorge217]

Do i need to know the double push for indoors?

[andilethespeedskater]

[crazypianolady]

Imagine if the first few went down...it would be like dominos

[jetcarq]

scating behind car is cheating :)

[SunkenPirate]

@jetcarq

very true, you avoid air resistance, pure cheating !!!

[600013818]

it says marathon in korean... but i think its the reduced one

[ButtHead4ev34]

[bboynezz]

@ButtHead4ev34 He has the record of more medals in wordl championchips you ignorant he´s the best skater off the history

[oscaredt4]

@bboynezz eso te apollo el mejor patinador de la historia el creador de el doble empuje la tecnika basica del patinaje

bobysss

[jdragon1012]

@ButtHead4ev34 first

[oldaardvark]

@ButtHead4ev34

It's Chad Hedrick. Must be first.

[fareng8]

@ButtHead4ev34 Hedrick last? LOOOLLL!

[Scandinavian92]

@ButtHead4ev34 He looks back so I think he leads

[Yoramdbz]

32mins is a half marathon

because their average speed is +/- 50km/h so they travel like 25km

[hobiekayakfreak]

they should be pizza delivery boys... lol.. stack 5-6 hotbags on there back

[nicknogalo24]

nope a car is still better

[shawnlux02]

that just looks unsafe in those groups haha

[NeedSweedWeed]

Schwul

[Mewlotova]

The footage at 2.49 - 3.20 puzzles me. Were these his opponents? Anyone would look good compared to those zombie skaters. Or are they just put in to make Hedrick look better? Because he doesn't really need that...

[PumaRacing88]

I'm pretty sure they're just the open/ fitness skater class. Perhaps that's a marathon.

[patricks123321]

I don't think it a Marathon becouse in the end you can see the time, 32 min so i think it a half marathon

[parks2000]

Because Hes the best skater to do marathons ?

[speeedskater]

you have no idea how good he really is

[3pHop]

DDDD hell yeah

[RealWrath]

I do not think they are the opponents.mira not bring your running clothes

[addbark]

awesome sport

[rczany]

lov this sport

[mojsterLoky]

than I gues this is 20km race?

[iamastomata]

what kind of speeds do thse guys go at

[thomas99bb]

about 40 km/h

[Ignasipatins]

In a Marathon, 42,5 km the first men can do in 59 minute

[hornedbeast91]

my legs make it too uncomfortable to skate for a long time i have to bend my knees in to have my feet point straight

[eljeebee]

you asses...he is 52 times world champion on inline skates...maybe he's won so many times that he just goes for the big prizes like the olympics...haha he's the best there is!

[repsaccer]

Lol look at Sven Kramer at the 2008 world championships, silver on the 1500 gold on the 5000 the team persuit and the 10 kilometer, in which he lapped Hedrick. Svens personal bests are way better than Hedricks, look at the Adlerskalendern, sven Kramer is the fastest skater in history in all round icespeed skating. apart from that he's the world record holder on the 5 and 10. Hedrick might have been good and may still become good again. But i dont see him beating Kramer.

[eljeebee]

i never said sven kramer would be beaten by hedrick...just saying that hedrick knows how to win the big prizes, so he'll be back to get some more olympic gold...but yeah, with sven kramer as an opponent it's gonna be hard...

[mly200]

Perfect double-push! Who knows his speed in the race?

[badstevieboy]

Don't the bearings get VERY hot and start fucking out??? Sorry if that's a retarded question...

[colindk]

No, the bearings can go at much higher speeds than these.

[TankDriverOriginal]

I'm not sure but maybe they use ceramic bearings. The expansion of them's much lower. By the way I like speed skating! Peace out!

[Penkeljan]

Woow ! Search also on youtube Henk Keizer video EXTREME MAKEOVER ( Wooden shoes on flashwheels ) Enjoy !

[GoldhawkIN]

Sven Kramer owns him ;) :P

[mike23it]

do you know Chad Hedrick?? mmmh i think not!!

[GoldhawkIN]

I do know him yes, but he is quite lazy.. Only very good in the olympic season, other seasons he is just a normal skater.

BTW. Im talking about speedskating on ice ;)

[dushitera]

anybody who knows sven knows he kicks ass... no way mr fancy face can beat him ;p

[haleystrat246]

thats an awesome double push and perfect skating position chad hedrick rox!!!!!!!!!!!!! yes i am a speed skater

[teejate]

Perfect double-push. At least the fucker could have been breathing a little hard at the end. Total domination.

[haleystrat246]

u know how fun dat is i'm a speed sk8er 2!!!!! ..........I HAVE AWESOME INLINES with the new wheels

[blaaturmorten]

Wow, that was the weirdest speed skating technique I have ever seen. But it seem to work though, he won!

[kimcheemonster]

Because the Koreans are retards. They have no idea what skatring means.

[trashbash2001]

wow, first the camera man gets in the way when they try to get a close up, then, the stupid mini van gets in the race and almost runs him over, you can see how frustrated he got, i would too..... DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT TYPES OF BOOTS HE HAS, AND WHAT SIZE WHEELS AND HOW MANY PER FRAME HES GOT????

[gailson]

post the video of his breakaway from the pack

[gakohler1167]

sad thing is that Hedrick no longer skates on wheels

he switched over to ice

[pardyanimal240]

i dont know too much about speed skating, but hes whipping by everything

[Hemiplegia666]

dare him ! Nice double push all the time !

[savagesteve13]

Eric Heiden was a genetic freak who had 32 inch diameter thighs and a 28 inch waist. If he had clapskates back then in 1980 he would have destroyed Chad Hedrick. People like him only show up in the sport every 40 years or so.

[bluebullypits]

i used to compete with him about 10 years ago and he kicked everyones ass then, i dont know who eric hieden is, but i seriously doubt hes got anything on chad.

[gailson]

won all 5 men's gold medals at 1980 Olympics speed skating

[ILS100]

What a difference compared with skaters behind him...

[bpiedra]

This is my all-time favorite video, showing Chad doing what he does best. Excellent learning and teaching tool. I use this video for motivation when I don't want to go out and skate hard. Thanks for posting.

[whisper82d]

Nice. Where did you get this Korean MBC footage? From Korea? I'd like to know what part of Seoul they raced in because those streets looked smooth. What a dream.

[GrooveMan64]

Thanks for posting this video... this is amongst one of the best videos out there showing Chad Hedrick doing a lot of signature smooth Double Push strides...

[JiSheng]

wow, his skates must be damn good, its like he's skating so damn smoothly there.

[bruisedlee]

wow... so he's leading the pack, eh?

it's nice to see him transition from in-line to speed skating on ice!

[allstar51788]

hey i know chad hedrick and right hes in torino italy in the olympics. i used to play hockey with him at champions roller world and shoot out in spring texas which is pretty cool. People say hes the next eric hieden and i think he is to but i think he has the potential to go even further.

[ashes2ashes001]

u used to skate at champions? haha me too...small world
