I’m 53 and just got my first pair of Heely’s today. Tried them briefly a few times. May take a few more tries to get good but it’s gonna be epic either way!
If anyone needs a tip, I just figured one out while trying to heely like 5 minutes ago. So, Its really important to keep the foot that youre putting foreward almost directly in front of the other one. Its not actually supposed to be directly in front, but when youre trying to heely without falling you should try to get into that position. Also, for those of you that keep falling backwards and scraping your hands, you keep doing this because your feet are flying out from under you. Meaning while youre rolling foreward youre bringing your feet beside eachother so you have no foot behind you to keep yourself steady. If you wan to stop falling, try to master ALWAYS keeping your feet in the skating position. Never right beside the other one. And one more thing for those of you still reading, some of you arent strong enough at the moment to heely, the muscles in your legs arent used to being in that position for a long time. So if you notice that after a session of practicing your heelying skills youre sore, thats exactly why. So try to practice a little every day and build up your strength. you might have perfect balance and form, but without any strength in those muscles you wont be able to heely without your feet going down and stopping you.
I take care of shopping centers and i have to blow the sidewalks off with powerful hand blower. Its a lot of walking I figured id at least try these. there are joints in all the sidewalk about 5 feet apart. Do you think this will work? Also if you have any other tips ?
My 21 year old ass looking at this vid after impulsively buying a pair of Heelys as a part of my quarter life crisis. Takes me back to when I owned a pair in elementary school.
About to be 22 and bought myself a pair coming in 2 days. Loved them when I was a kid but my feet grew out of them. Now I have my own money to buy anything I want. Got a cotton candy machine, a pound of candy, now heelys. Being an adult rocks Now to get my driver's license🗿
@@sturg1853 yeaaaahhh I just never had an interest in driving like, at all. I don't think that's a bad thing just funny. To each their own I guess 😎 if it affects me negatively well, that's a problem for future me
@Chamomile How does your doctor not notice that it's not "working" and asking what's going on? The amount of addictive prescriptions prescribed to people is insanity.
Had a pair when I was 6 and loved them so much. I am now 23 and have 2 kids and just got myself another pair so when they play outside momma can show off her sick skills
i swear rocks are the worst even the tiny ones i was riding my bike one day and then there was a rock on the sidewalk and since i thought "meh that rock wont bother me" so then i ran over it and almost fell off my bike
I know mine are pretty solid in the toe area. Not steel toed of course but maybe they could work. Or could figure out how to put something in the toe to make them work safe!
I had a pair of these in elementary school. They were banned cause too many kids were getting hurt lmao. I'm 25 now and about to order me those sick af Rugrats ones. I wish I had these when I worked at a grocery store. I would've loved to use them with the electric jack, scooting around the store.
back in 2nd or 3rd grade, my school had all the kids with heelys take the wheels out until they were off school property because god forbid a kid *scrapes their elbow* and they have to write an *aCciDeNt rEpOrT*
I got them on Xmas! Practice every day for about ten minutes. I stated by a wall, put my feet it position and pulled myself along. Once used to that I heelied in the hallway where I had 2 door knobs to help me to not fall. Then I did it slowly and started to go faster. I can already go pretty fast
I find that whilst step plant kick is good for first learning heelys, to go for longer distances faster I usually either run for a few steps then lift one leg, glide on the other for a sec then put both down or jump into it. Hope u find this helpful :)
I never had Heelys myself but I vaguely remember them being a big deal back in my early high school days. I'm 34 now and last night I had a dream I was back in high school and wearing a retractable pair of these, even though teachers in the hallway told me they're not allowed. Sometimes I retract the wheels in their presence and other times I just try to Heely around while avoiding being seen by any problematic teacher. I've had this kind of dream multiple times before over the past few years, even though I royally suck at roller-skating/blading/boarding/anything with wheels. Sometimes I'm even losing control or crashing into things/people in the hallways in my dreams, but for the most part I'm not too bad with them. I just find it funny how a trend from over a decade and a half ago that I never took part in, wasn't rampant around my own high school, and hadn't been on my mind much at all despite thinking the concept of Heelys is cool is suddenly appearing in my dreams. Guess I'm living the bad boy edge life I never had back then. 😂 Pretty cool that Heelys makes adult sizes too...🤔
I had a pair in middle school. Now I'm 30 and bought the south park editions... 💪 😆 I can't wait, when did these shoes stop being kool!!? They're sick af
I got heels for my birthday. The original ones. I was practicing with my mom but I didn’t make any progress. So then I found this and what helps me the most is the Step Plant Kick. The only thing I’m stuck on is keeping my lower leg straight.
Oh my gosh...I still have my Heelys from when I was like 12 and I hardly even use them. So this video helped me how to use them. It takes a lot of practice, though.
I’m 30, saw a Reebok camo pair ad, it’s like your phone can even read your brain because I’ve never searched them ever and instantly bought. They look like normal great camo reeboks as well for when I don’t have the wheel in. But I’m def gonna go to Walmart and target like I did as a kid just to whip around on these bad boys! Nostalgia!!!
My friend was teaching me how to use heelys Because he has had them for a year-ish and he said "hills are nice because you can" and the continued to faceplant because of a rock
My soon to be eight year old want these. I remember these from my childhood and didn’t know they were still a thing. Those red and black ones are 🔥 lol. I’m getting him a pair 😊
Just got these yesterday as an early Christmas present I learned in about 2 hours it’s so fun!! (I do not recommend to people that don’t ice skate, roller skate or rollerblade if you do those things I do recommend)
I had heelys when i was younger and boy do they make the loudest clacking noise when you're walking in a quiet church and everyone stops to stare at you because of it.
Protective gear is in fact required at the European Heel championship. That is the tournament that requires full protection. There is another tournament in norway that only requires a helmet. Where I heel, people generally do not wear protective equipment. There are however a handful of young children in the neighborhood who can be observed with at-least helmets.
mine just came in today. the whole reason I got them was to actually learn a dance by this kpop group I like. they did the whole dance in heelys and there were some amazing tricks I really want to learn. if you want to check it out solely for the tricks they do the group is called SPEED and the song is called What U.
I think that if your a beginner you shouldn't do it on a road because most likely you will fall and it will hurt pretty bad tbh. :) (but the tutorial is pretty helpful)
Protective gear AND Friends?? You're asking me for a lot there man
So true

My school took ,y wheels out and never gave them back. Thus ending my Heelys career.
Yeah, they did that because dumb kids and heelys don't mix and it's just a lawsuit waiting to happen.
In their defense, it's not that hard to get permanent brain damage from fall. Safety is always first.
