Xtreme Ice Skating at Outdoor Ice Rink

[harvesttheatre]

Brooo, yu make it look so easy - that was fun ta watch! :D

[DinkyDeane]

you have some crazy skillz man, do alot of ice skating my self and you have inspired me to try some new tricks p.s 5 people slipped on the ice and clicked the dislike button :D

[Prolite]

@DinkyDeane Thanks for your support.

[demitelix]

only 360 and 720 looks nice, but it's not hard for inline freeskater :) other very easy.

[Prolite]

@demitelix It's ten times harder on the ice. Record yourself doing a 720 or Fakie 720 on the ice and I will believe you.

[creierpulverizat]

@demitelix This guy i having fun! That's all that matters

[Prolite]

@Madmortem7 No.

[alex97754]

you have some sick skills, how long have you been practising for?

[Prolite]

@alex97754 Thanks. When I had done this video, it had been 15 years.

[alex97754]

@Prolite id love to be as good as you, some day i might :)

[tictack0]

i think u got a skil lbut .. i think its pointless skating is a bout elegenc and u see to bee all over the place..

[Prolite]

@tictack0 I despise elegance :)

[89RELENTLESS89]

what cuts are there, i got mine shapend other day at 1/2" like i find them so sharp i cant even stop as good now or slide as far.

[Prolite]

Radius of hollow sharpenings are as follows:

5/8", 9/16", 1/2", 7/16", 3/8", 5/16", 1/4"

[shirosan07]

exelente eres el mejor pasa por mi canal y mira mis videos , no es mucho jeje

[Prolite]

@shirosan07 Gracias.

[soffiethetoffee]

is the blade on xtreme ice skates like hockey skates

[Prolite]

@soffiethetoffee yes.

[greaney10]

i hate grant the ice sucks

[Prolite]

@greaney10 I didn't care until they kicked me off their ice.

[13barmor]

this is awesome! i cant find xtreme skates anywhere. i have regular hockey skates. will those work? if so, what kind of cut do you use? I normally use a 7/16 cut on my skates.

[Prolite]

Email me and I'll give you the link for the skates. I think they're 700 dollars. I use a 1/4" cut. If you're jumping a lot, hockey skates will break.

[stepahn276]

Dude, that was some pretty sick stuff, what kind of skates are those?

[Prolite]

Thanks. They are called "Xtreme Ice Skates".

[stepahn276]

Are they custom made, or can I get them from a store?

[Prolite]

They are custom made. You have to buy them from the manufacturer: "Klingbeil". Email me for the link to buy them.

[SiskinP]

Powerfull moves just the way I like to skate. My question...Whats the track (song) in the background. I keep playing the video just to listen to the track ;-)

All the best...

[Prolite]

Creed - "Are you ready".

[huezune2000]

Dan, please put up a tutorial on the footwork at 1:57-1:58. It's so COOL!!!! Much appreciated!

[Prolite]

You mean the tap dancing?

[huezune2000]

Yes, it is so cool. Please put up the tutorial at your earliest convenience. Thanks!!

[Prolite]

It's called "Step Footwork".

[ivandanu]

Dan it his best ^^ a lot of powerful moves here. Now i know how hard to make video tutorials..as there are a lot of trick that you possesed..

[hamstergeisha76]

You're doing a rather good job doing those tricks and spins on hockey skates as it's rather hard doing a lot of that stuff without an edge on your blade! :D

[Prolite]

Thanks. Actually, my edges are sharpened at 1/4 hollow radius.

[hamstergeisha76]

How do the people who sharpen skates take hockey style skates and give them a 1/4 hollow radius? I never heard of any hockey skates at the shops having edges on their blades.

[Prolite]

All skates have edges so long as they are sharpened. Every skater likes a different ROH (radius of hollow), depending on their needs. Xtreme Ice Skaters like deep edges whereas figure skaters and hockey players, not as deep.

[hamstergeisha76]

Now I remember as when I took figure skating lessons I never liked deep edges as it was hard to hold an edge when I landed, and it was hard to control the landing for me if the guy at the pro shop got my edges too deep.

[waidazas]

can anyone tell me the name and the artist of the song playing in the video? plz..

[Prolite]

Click on "download this song" button at top to find out that information.

[waidazas]

[waidazas]

[julipeige2805]

[julipeige2805]

Gracias!! :D

[Cajunskater]

Wow definatly one of your greatest vids Dan. Still working on that Eclipse...but my hand doesn't seem to be in the right place for the turn.

[Prolite]

Thanks. Your hand will be automatic but your leg has to swing and you have to commit your body to the turn. Be careful though. If you mess up on the Eclipse, you can get really hurt.

[Cajunskater]

Yeah, I work at the local rink and have some hockey protective gear, but its not very easy to maneuvere in. You know of any stores that I can pick up some decent pads at?

[Prolite]

Yeah. I wear a Roller hockey girdle when I skate, and it's by Mission. It's orange, though I think they make them in different colors. I bought it at 'Play It Again Sports'.

[Prolite]

And the girdle I have has removable pads. Leave the side pads in, the one around the top of the waist, and the tail bone. The front pads and the back ones you can remove which will give you more maneuverability.

[XownedftwX]

hmm an outdoor rink i like the idea looks cool when its darker

[conman2211]

wot age ar u

[Prolite]

I am 26.

[GergelyMA]

You really motivates me Dan, and your teaching videos help me a lot! Im working on a new trick. I will make a vid, and I will post it to you! I hope u liked it, becouse you motivated me to create it, so you will be a "part" of it! If you undestand what I mean. :)

[Prolite]

Thank you for your comments.

[nvy12]

is this uk stuff were i can go learn ??

[Prolite]

You can learn from my tutorials and looking at my other videos. Check out the official website to learn about the sport.

[nvy12]

ok will do thanx m8(Y) im goin sk8in 2morro :D

[macsftw]

i was just curious, how long have you been ice skating and were you a hockey player ever?

[Prolite]

Been skating for over 14 years, and played street hockey for one summer when I was 13.

[macsftw]

Your amazing. I know your using the RBK 9k pumps but do you think that the 5k's are any good?

[Prolite]

They are good but they are not as stiff. If you are a high level skater, than buy the 9k.

[macsftw]

cool, thanks I eventually brought the 5k's and have been pretty satisfied with them since, good skates. I don't know how much better the 7/9k's are though :|

[Prolite]

They are lighter and stiffer.

[JacqAnne]

i've been doing figure for a very long time now...

just starting with hockey...

love the extra speed ;)

this is awesome!

[Prolite]

You should make an Xtreme Ice Skating video using your figure skates -- and hockey skates too.

[westwfs]

what name is this song?

[Prolite]

Wizards in Winter

[westwfs]

Thank you so much...

[Prolite]

Long Island, NY

[MarcusIsNot18]

Awesome Video, I wish I could do that :(

[mcsalty4]

I like the jumps in this movie, they're balanced, just like you're flying and there's no gravity. Nice work, as usual,...

[zadabo99x]

Lol my brother should do this. Lol he loves to spray ice and stuff. He also goes super fast on the skates too.

[toriihunter4821]

dude, u freaking rock!!!

[ISFT]

good job:)5/5

[ProliteSk8er]

Nice one Dan ive got a new vid for you anyway and youve improved laods on your 720s etc....

[miszveve]

it looks soo cool :)

[lexthegoose]

jumps are lookin better to!!

[Prolite]

Thank you for your support.

[lexthegoose]

nice work man you'v improved loads!!!

[spartanrain]

very nice foot work!

did i see a 720 in the middle some were?

[Prolite]

Thanks. Nope, no 720's yet. Soon though!

[BudC51]

:) im finally hittin them 720s constant just gotta get a video

[Prolite]

Make sure your knees are at a 90 degree parallel level or higher. IF you can do that, you will be the first to land fakie 720's. Also, make sure the landing is not cheated. Add in an Air flow if you can, or at least an attempt at one.

[BudC51]

ill see if i can get a good shot of them next time i hit the rink havent had a lot of time to lately

[Prolite]

Neither have I. Check out my documentary. Part 1 of 4 comes out tonight (Jan 6th).
