Eddy Matzger: Double Push Tech.

[3abdoX]

Just wow.. thanks a lot.. This is gonna improve my skating a lot.

[Dontattakplz]

Great vid, appreciate the time spent making it :)

[Bonecrusher27WTF]

Some parts almost remind me of Richard Simmons lol.

Awesome! Now I finally get the theory of the mechanics... doing it is gonna be different I'm sure! Thanks for this vid!

[resonance2001]

I imagine a sort of mild zig zag in front of me to follow. My upper body doesn't zig zag hardly, but it helps my legs do the motion. I always make sure my foot lands at an angle to do the 'under push'

[toymaker506]

Why u mess with him his just a guy ho dousnt know how to skate so come over here in puerto rico and ill show u how it's done

[mnj980]

He's is doing double push while chalking the ground. Wadda badass.

[ThyWalrus]

SHOOT THE DUCK PEW PEW PEW!!!

[hambre1234567890]

His skating technique is actually quite ugly to look at, my coach refers this to as pendulum skating because the bottom part is swaying from side to side while the top stays motionless. Where is his weight transfer? He looks really uncoordinated when he skates. His legs look like they get twisted.

[devastaticon]

@hambre1234567890 what do you mean WHERE is his weight transfer... if it wasn't there he couldn't skate at ALL. your weight transfer shouldn't be that noticeable anyway. you probably exaggerate your weight transfer which is why you suck at skating and this guy is a champion over and over again. PERIOD.

[flitspaaltje]

Really cool explanation on the double push. This looks so hard! I still have trouble with just the normal skate moves on my 4X100 wheels. On my rollerblades I get around way easier, cause I can turn so much faster, the big wheels just feel like they want to go straight. Ofcourse this is what I have to work on.

[ElSaltar1]

he doesn´t have an inner push, so his double push is worthless...

[gvmaier]

This guy is what gives rollerblading a bad name!

[jimbobklyn1963]

@gvmaier really? can you explain yourself? thanks!

[masmddds]

At 1:05, that's a great way to sprain your ankle, especially if you're using a 4x110 setup where the deck-height is higher than the 5x84 this guy is using.

[PA28140]

Can this technique be used with quad roller skates too?

[Radughiudem]

dude, you need improvments in your own tecnique before you try to teach it. The exercices are good, but when it comes to the final double push, you are doing it wrong.

[htalpo]

@Radughiudem Obviously you have never skated or heard of Eddy then because he is one of the most renowned speed skaters in the world and no doubt would skate circles around you.

Don't criticize when you don't know what you are talking about.

[HartuBeatu]

@htalpo LOL he's a speed skater not a slalom one, but we get the idea... :)

[Radughiudem]

Good teaching but for yourself you need improvments in your double push technique ;).

[RealtyStudioHD]

Excellent techniques for teaching this. Thank you for this video!

[FyrFlower85]

Why does everyone hate on anything else anyone else does? Skateboards are fine. They just aren't for you.  Stop worrying about what they are doing. I used to skateboard, and I had lots of fun on it.

[23GummybearMs]

rollerblading is a hard core sport that gives your body all the good needs in health & a good workout, not like those skateboards for fags, you cannot have fun on a skateboard plus you cant even get a body or work out fuck skateboards their for fags really.

[xdirt1]

whats the good thing about all this ?!

i prefer skateboard,Bmx,Parkour then this shit

[Lovesgoats]

it actually feels great

btw those are big ass frames and wheels designed more for speed than maneuverability

I have fusion x7 (90mm wheels) and they're amazing for cruising around town

[btbbuilder]

so go skateboard

[bboynezz]

jaja What a slow start man

[jhmjunk]

Ok, now that I know that technique, I'll be able to beat him on Monday in the US10K. (NOT!) Good luck Eddy on Monday!

[superstar85ca]

I have nowhere to fucking skate, it sucks

[goshell1975]

I'll try this technique after work...:)

[fastj1962]

I want to see Eddy teach his technique for leading the pack into road hazzards such as rocks, reflectors or in my case a brick. How about taking off in a race when a spectator knocks down a fellow competitor? hmmmmm I was in a lawsuit and called Eddy against his will to testify.... He said during testimony in an attempt to sideways slam me that he would never skate masters... I hear he is skating those events now....nice

[Survi]

useful stuff...tried it myself...improves speed and i can keep it up for longer...10x

[79481429]

kinda gay with da Awooga tho...

[PM05]

lol..."stay down and shoot the duck...pew pew pew pew"

:D

[ijsklontjeftw]

noob you just copied his movie -.-

[dunno32145]

this was actually really good but i couldnt help but kinda laugh at him loosing his breath

[fredefalk]

try doing this all day, that would be really hard for a normal person, then try doing this + talk like a maniac all day.

i understand why he is loosing he's breath.

[MiGU3LKun]

you have my 5/5 rating
