Artistic Inline Figure Skating - Practice, Second day on Snow Whites

Lots of jumps and spins, not that much footwork or spirals. I have got a basic camel spin and am getting used to the feeling of off-ice skating on my Snow White frames.

@julianaqtpi hey :) the location in the video is actually a multi-functional sports facility in Sydney. I practice here most of the time. It is approved for rollerskating and has the compulsory figure circles but is also home to basketball, football, netball, martial arts, gymnastics and volley ball. hence the floor markings and hoops. there is another half of the 'rink' on the other side of the canvas barrier but there were basket-balers there on the day of filming who preferred it lowered :)

@julianaqtpi hi there:) both the snowplow and the T-stop can be done with little practice. the wheels have friction as well as an amount of slip, so if done using the proper angle proves no problem. however the double and single-footed hockey stops are much more difficult - especially attempting them without the hair-raising sound of violently skidding wheels! ;) although, this can be overcome by purchasing a harder wheel (i mostly use an 84A for rink skating). hope this has helped x

Oh, and where was this you were practicing? Doesn't look like a typical roller rink

Just a question, how do you stop on these? I can't imagine a snowplow stop would work the best, and a T-stop doesn't seem like it would work....
