Hello from Australia Dirty. I'm 55 and haven't skated since I was a kid. Waiting for my skates to arrive (any day now). Absolutely love your tutorials, you teach so well. Your enthusiasm gets me in the right mindset to skate and I can't wait to start. Thank you
Seriously! I will definitely be rewatching things as I go(coming feom an Aussy by birth, just happened to have been born in the states... why was that necessary? 😅🤣)
I started skating 4 days ago and have already nailed backwards skating thanks to your tutorials! I have been skiing most of my life so this may have affected it but I couldn't have done it without your crystal clear instructions, thank you for doing what you're doing 🥰
Thank you!! You’ve given me some new ways to stop!! A suggestion- how to slow down & different ways to stop going forwards. I’m finding it much harder to slow down & stop outside! Thank you for your help!!
Deb - love it. "If you got other ways comment!, i'll make a video on those" That's a teacher/coach for ya! Always love when Dirty Deb posts, cause it means I just got more homework but it's full of fun, love, reminders and of course well structured, practiced drills/tips (not 183/365 days skating)
This is exactly what I needed! I’ve been practicing at a tennis court and mostly crashing into the fence to stop when going backwards 😆 I was starting to naturally do that carving stop but wasn’t sure about it. Now I’ll practice it more!
You are such a great teacher! I have always wanted to skate as a kid but never had one, impulse shopping the other day got myself a pair of Impala’s to start with. at the age of 37 everyone thinks I am crazy haha! I have discovered your channel and I have been binge watching all your videos since last week. I managed to get up on skates and even roll forwards and do bubbles on my first practice! I am scared to go outdoors yet, will practice a bit more in house and get myself out when I feel ready. Thanks so much for sharing your experience and knowledge with us. Love all the way from Turkey! Wish I could skate with you one day xx
Great video. I've been working on backward and using toe stops. Most my stops are just snow plowing action but I think working on others will help especially if I need help going backwards downhill.
After Watching you my confidents has boosted and I got a giggle from this, Great video this is what people from 5-XX need it breaks it down like a cracker in water, thanks make for of these please.
First off I really like the way you teach. I see you do a lot of beginner tutorials and they are good! Can you do a tutorial for more advanced skaters I’m very comfortable in my skates now and I can skate backwards and forwards do spins but I’m ready for something more challenging!
Your videos rock!! I love how you break stuff down! Can you cover how to do T-glides and some more derby-type skills?? Oooh also can you do a 15 minutes practice session that we can do in skates but on carpet for when we can’t get to a rink/can’t skate outside?
So I'm a 46 year LA native that is just taking skating serious! I grew up going to world on wheels but that place wasn't always the place to be int the 80's and 90's lol I'm in Ohio now creating pastimes for kids in the small Community of Xenia Ohio smh Spring is here the weather's breaking and it's time to play outside. I say all that to say thank you for teaching me to skate backward and and currently working on transitions, and edge work. DIRTY YOU ATE THE BESTEST!!!
Thank you for acknowledging my comment! I’m so sorry can I also ask, could you make a video on the crazy legs? I’ve no idea if snake walk and crazy legs are the same thing, but my brain just can’t understand the steps
Hay Dirty can you show how you stopped slowed down after you showed the last backwards plow? You were skating forwards and stopped by kind of stepping (hope that makes sense?)
Oh my God, this is like you have read my heart💗 This is exactly what I need. And I should really tell you that I am crazy in love with you, my roller skating journey is really amazing because of and with YOU🌸 and I am so so soooo grateful🤤🙏🏻💫 What you are doing for all of us is unbelievable and priceless to me💎 Infinite Love and Gratitude, Always & Forever🤟🏼☀️💞 P.S. I wish to get a chance meet you someday as well😬😙💐
I 💜 Dirty! Hopefully soon I’ll be able to make time to fly out to California and visit FVSC. Meanwhile, my daughter travels all the time, and she will be in LA for a week beginning today. I’ve been literally begging her to go to FVSC and try to get an autograph for me. So, Deb, if a girl from Texas comes in with her little dog, she’s there for her mama. 😂 I sent her the link with the different sessions going on there, and tomorrow night’s looks like it’s going to be so much fun!
off topic, but it is so hard for me to spread my legs when i’m doing bubbles but i’ve loosened my trucks and wheels. i squat down and relax my body but it still doesn’t work.
I wanted to know how to stretch a leather boot wider. My baby toe rubs the side as I’m skating and starts hurting after about 10 or 15 min of skating. The skate fits well just that issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hello Dirty, what kind of jam plug are you using in this video? It looks like they slowed you down a bit, most jam plugs are of a hard material which doesn't really aid in stopping.
Hello Debra,what is the safest roller derby white skates to buy for the rink & outside ,I need durable &good brakes for stopping, any brands you would suggest for me,?
All of my skate setups are detailed in the video description boxes. These skates were hand-painted by a friend of mine. They started out white! They are vintage Riedell 297 with Sure-Grip Snyder Advantage plates.
Hey Deborah there is a move where u stop backwards on ur toe plugs. But is it the same technique as wen u put your foot back behind ur butt. If you u can can u make a video of both feet. I actually look better ways to skate from you so I appreciate making video for our new skaters and our skaters who just need more guidance. But if can pls make a video on both toe stop on jam plugs
Guess who started derby boot camp..me!!!!! And guess who told all the fresh meat about your videos...thats right..me!!!! Do you have derby instruction videos??
So excited for you Tiffani! I played banked and flat track derby for years. Everything I teach applies. You need to be a great skater to play derby effectively.

Thanks for being a person of your words Deb...can't wait to start practicing 😊

You make it all look so easy! I can't wait to be comfortable on skates again

You must have been inspired by me from last night when I asked you about learning to skate backwards
I love you!! Thank you so much 😹💕
Mam power brake ka video banaaiye💖💖💖
You "behind" looks just great! Hope, it doesn't sound inappropriate 🙈
I wanted to know how to stretch a leather boot wider. My baby toe rubs the side as I’m skating and starts hurting after about 10 or 15 min of skating. The skate fits well just that issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I usually stop in a V shape or do kind of a dip till I lose speed
Hello Dirty, what kind of jam plug are you using in this video? It looks like they slowed you down a bit, most jam plugs are of a hard material which doesn't really aid in stopping.
Sure Grip Dance plugs.

I have an easier tutorial: Just stop roller skating backwards. As in just don't do it.
Blah blah blah blah bla bla blah blah. I could not have summarized it better. 😆
