  • What's up Skate Fam? Welcome to the Deez Skates jam skating tutorial on Trucking. I'm going to break down this movement so you can do it with your friends in your rink. I see this jam skating move literally every where I go. It's been around forever and I've got a lot of requests for it in the past, so I decided it was time to give my input on it. If you can skate on an intermediate level and do a basic cross over, you can do this move. So grab your skates and get ready to try it out! Also, don't forget to subscribe to Deez Skates! And like this video so more people will see it! See you the next time I lace up!

    I’m a 70s baby so we did A LOT of skating in the 80s & very early 90s. We called that move ‘Shuffle’ when you freestyles really well it was then ‘Advanced Shuffle’ Good times. My mom use to advance shuffle like a pro. She’s in her 70s now & still holds her own in the rink.

    We called it Jam skating since the early 80s. We would compete in speed skating and during the lunch break we would have a “Jam Session” , so we called it jam skate. On Friday’s and Saturday’s, we had a total of 4 Jam skate sessions and would have 1 break dancing contest in the middle while others kept jam skating on the outside. Jam music would last 5-8 minutes per song, two songs per jam session. You will still find FAST jam skaters skate for full 10-15 minutes continuously without missing a beat.Indiana/Fort Wayne

    This is perhaps my favorite movement. When younger i tended to bend more at the knees for a lower stance adding a "pump" on the front leg as I transitioned the other leg to the back. Now as I have grown older it resembles more along the lines you are presenting in this video! I have been quad skating since 70's and the move was popular even then.

    When we were doing that in 75 we called it freestyle ‘Shuffle Skate’.

    The Shuffle was a product of Disco/R&B, think Cool and the Gang.

    Cool video. Just getting back into jam skating after a pretty big hiatus. Had a set of Hard Candies in the mid-late 90s that are now long gone. Trying to educate myself on jam skates (we always called them speed skates back then), but, low cut boot with no/short heel. Do you have any recommendations on where to start? Would building up my own boot be a better option? No real budget constraints but I would like something durable, maybe a bit more modern, if skates have any improvement since the 90s.

    Let them know,to pick up those feet,and place them into position,and if they do that,their feet should fall into position on beat.So you lift right to the back,place it down,life the front,place it down,so the timing is up foot1,down foot 1,up front2,down foot 2.Then as you get advanced it's like Plant foot 1,pivot1,plant position 2,pivot back to original position,etc,etc..
