[slinkysammy]

dude you got hella swag i wannna go to londons hyde park now

[kittensita]

I loved your demo! Can you give me some advices about the type of wheels for outdoor skating? Thanks! Anna from Argentina.

[ascatigno]

For those who have asked me to do tutorial videos on how to do certain moves i will be making them this summer :-D

Thanks everyone for watching my video.

[trueboss926]

will you post a tutorial on how to skate. because I'm horrible at them :(

[silinskas]

You are really good man, but the thing is that you can do so much more with inline skates and you require more skill for that, but yeah - respect :)

[cmlaw70]

Thanks for the great viewing. I never thought you could do all that on quads. I'm not altogether convinced your legs aren't made of rubber though :)

[purelypythons]

Cool vid matey should have a set of skates in a week will take a trip to hyde park

[MegaShina123]

[AllusiveGold]

[ascatigno]

@AllusiveGold

I believe its called the grape vine. :-)

[AllusiveGold]

@ascatigno Thank you sir!!

[VanillaBeanybaby]

wow o_O I wish i could do that...

[MRSstraightA]

Fucking brilliant !!

makes me want to dig my old bauer / Sims streetsnakes out . . .

[ascatigno]

@MRSstraightA

Thanks mate. Get your skates aout and enjoy

[ascatigno]

@MRSstraightA

get them out and enjoy, what u waiting for? :-)

[MRSstraightA]

@ascatigno

Got to do some practicing in private so I don't look like a total idiot and break both my wrists in front of everyone, might have to skate around my living room like an idiot for a couple of weeks, been off the skates for 10 years !!!

Not sure I can manage your full-on hockey stop in the living room !!!!

lol.

[KiNgGeMz]

I watched this video so many times and I just noticed where I've seen you before lol

You need to teach me how to skate properly...What kind of skates shud I buy im confused :s

Your too good...do some of this at silver spoon :D (Y)

[ascatigno]

@KiNgGeMz

How is it going mate, yeah im a regular at silverspoon wembley on friday's. The skates you should buy are nike air skates or if you can find bauers anywhere then get them or something simular as they dont make them any more. Let me know who you are at silverspoon and ill be more than happy to show or teach you some moves.

[bengo940]

depends on the person

for me quads are better on inlines i pronate, just got quads yesterday and although they are slow i enjoy them, much easier to use and i can do the t stop on them.

with inlines i stop doing the t stop but spin around. i hope i learn to dance with quads

quads are sick

[RealTough990]

ya quads good for tricks but inline our way better for speed and ramps

[inkh0rn]

Love the moves, mate. Was an inline beginner, fitness skating only, for 5 years - then went to the resurrected Wigan Roller Rink ...CONVERTED! Just got some Supreme Turbo 33's and put some Radar Demons on em for the rink. I'm shit but your vids give me inspiration...keep the four wheel faith, mate, and get yerself up to Pieland sometime :D

[TheKittyKatNat]

WoW your amazing! What sort of skates are those? they look like a custom boot?

[emucosmos]

quads all the way man! to bad I can't practice as often as I want but now that i'm starting to go to my job in my quads I hope I'll become better

[kimberl8]

hi mate im the the man doing the backflip at worthing skate park want to hook up and show you some spins of mine and manuls that are rad

[scottanddean1]

what sort of wheels are they cause i dont have a clue

[ascatigno]

@scottanddean1

They are sims street snake, if you cant get hold of them buy airwaves or sfr's. The grip you get from all 3 are fantastic.

[scottanddean1]

@ascatigno = airwaves or street airwaves or any ?

[Toebex]

AGGRESSIVE RULES!!!

[SupremeRoller112]

your amazing, i gotta come down london soon i think

what wheels are you using i like the hockey stop sound they make my bel airs dont make noise for some reason, could you tell me how i can make the noise

[BAHMonkeyman]

BLADES R SOOOO GAY

[Haico155]

thats dooopee! just started roller skating.. its sick.. tnkz 4 great inspiration

[rikoxasora]

omg... black british dude… no comment

[ascatigno]

@rikoxasora

joker, italian british dude to be exact :-)

[east56789]

Nice Video, and thanks for showing these sad inline skaters how is done, in my skating years I have never not even once thought about switching to blades, they are not as good as Quads, blades are good for speed, Quads are good for everything ,ascatigno how come I never saw you when I used to skate in Hyde park back from 1994 -2006, I was a regular skater back then.

[drunk3nm0nk]

What's the song at 1:57?

[short3One]

YH MAN! QUADS ALL THE WAY!

[ascatigno]

just made another video, check it out guys!!!

Its called FUNKY QUAD SKATING IN HYDE PARK.

[1990sRaver]

Nice vid mate - I used to love my bauers back then at the local rollerdisco - what wheels/bearings u skating on tho? they dont sound smooth at all (especially on the powerslide on ur vid!) - sound like the cheap nasty things I had before upgrading to sims street snakes with a decent set of bearings! U got some good tricks there but I still reckon Im a better backskater than u! ALL ABOUT THE QUADS!

[ascatigno]

Thanks for the comment but i have to reply to your line where you state your a better backskater than me lol never :-)

Need to see you roll to give you that title. If your in london come hyde park or wembleys silverspoon friday night....ill let the crowd decide :-)

Take care mate, keep rolling.

[atraherne]

Alright mate, I used to quad skate when I was younger, switched to blades for street/vert but then went off it cos of injuries. Havn't skated in yrs, love the feeling of rolling on quads, want to get back into it. Do you know any good centres in London? I know they do them roller disco's round Kings Cross, Canvas etc. Thats cool but also want to be able to go somewhere during day to pracice. Any suggestions? Prefer skating indoors as it feels nice and smooth, you know what I mean.

[ascatigno]

I skate at wembley's silverspoon friday nights

[atraherne]

@ascatigno , thats cool, I'm living in Harrow so not far, are have to check it out sometime. Need to save up for some new quads.

[Takeshi386]

wat is this song at the end?

[GixxxerKim]

look up lyrics you'll find it.

[bckflipcurt]

respect to all skaters i say personally i use inlines but im gunna learn to use quads as they are both just as gd cos ive got a mate who can do all tht stuff on his quads and another mate who does exactly the same stuff on inlines so hate on each other if u guna hate anybody hate skateboardsers and bmx lol

[wowlhassa]

I've been inline skating since 16 years now and i started, as a child, with quads.

I love watching quad riders but prefer practicing inline skating. I respect quad skaters and think that we all belong to the same family!! I hate inline skaters saying that they hate quad skaters or quad skaters saying that they hate inline skaters.

[Inutachi114]

I love quads i hate inlines ive been skating since i was 5 and im 15 now an i still skate an luv ur video *Jennifer "Demon" Meehan

[hawickfreerunning]

Im a 29 yr old, old skool quad skater all the way from Scotland, im up here skating and representing guys, BRING BACK QUADS, GET RID OF INLINES, you want inlines go ice skating,

Bauer turbo quads rock lol, cant believe they dont make them anymore, ths company "supreme" have taken over bauer quads

stuart "speedy" andrews

[tweetybyrd7275]

4: ii been skatinq sincee ii was 6 && im pretty darnn fyee ! lol just too braqq a little (:

- well great videoo !

[bospin]

I use inines, but I am just a recreational rider. I don't know whether quads are better for recreational use (short and long rides) ; how do they compare to each other when it comes to making distances ? I know some freestylers (on inlines) who can do amazing things as well. Anyhow, nice to see you move : I envy your skill.

[TQCKyle]

What style of quads do you see the "locals" at the rink wearing? I've recently discovered that there are different varieties of quads.

[DustBunny909]

I think its called the grape vine. I love quads they make inline look so bad!

[charborne]

nice moves! what's the trick called at 2:10. Any tips on teaching myself that one?. Also, there must be general skate tutorials online/in books but I can't find them - any ideas appreciated. cheers

[radecky84]

godd job, but not interstet...

[TheSouljagirl11]

i need new quads

[colourfullzebra]

mate where do you get your quads from?

[Crazer7]

nooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOO inline skate supporter here!!! XDD join meeee! anyway~ great vid! =)

[lamphy]

great video and skater, lets start a quad boot revival, set up a group on facebook come and join it if you like, "Quad Roller Boot Revival". My 8 year got some for xmas and although he is good on blades he loves his quads. join the group guys and get some pics and vids posted, share with your friends also. and nicholas and reubin would love it if you guys become administrators on the group. you guys could be key to a revival

SPREAD THE WORD if rage against machine can do it so can we.

[bytespecies]

I use to use blades...but when I went to my local skating rink I had a hard time keeping up with people on quads. I got curious and used quads for one night. HAVENT USED BLADES SINCE. Actully got my onw pair of quads just today, still wearing them on my feet to break in. I PROBBLY HAV THE MOST COMFY SKATES IN THE WORLD xD. Good video. wish I could go backwards as fast as u can, I cant go tht fast....

[Rathboowm]

[ascatigno]

[McBeatboxStatik]

[icecubes4321]

nice grapevines.. i bet you couldn't do that crazy leg thingy at 1:10 while moving though. i just learned to ablance on my toes =)

[Dillon779977]

quads all da way

[elDiabloBobbie]

Dang man, this is awesome! I love the trick you do when you move your skates around while balancing on the front wheels, so cool.

But it would have been great if you had put Champion for the whole video, I was just listening to it while watching your video and it went perfectly together, such as, when you jumped on the table the song went "You don't see just how fly my style is."

But anyway...Awesome video and GO QUADS!

[metalicpearl]

Quads Rule! you can do so many more tricks in those things c: quads all the way baby~!

[kheelanie]

You are amazing, quads all the way. Wicked video great moves and i love the moonwalk you pull of in the middle :)

Your backskating is sooooo smooth and my god you can powerslide.xxxx

[liveforever14]

bauer turbo's !!

[AJRichardson1981]

Turbos all the way man. I hate inlines, they feel so unnatural man. Nice vid :)

[rosieboyutube]

awesome - your moves are slick! i love my roces quads - inlines suck arse - like skating with breeze blocks on your feet...its quads all the way!

[ShortSliderMark]

Great stuff! I really learned some new moves, cheers.

Ever do downhill speed?

[RayDesmond]

[grandman540]

[grandman540]

[ascatigno]

the skates are bauer turbos and they have plastic trucks and plates. the wheels are sims streetsnake with abec 7 bearings.

[ascatigno]
