    Coming back to Shaun's tutorials after a year of practice and progress. Now better realising the level of skill and expertise this man has, it is truly magnificent how smoothly he is able to demonstrate every tiny step of the learning curve. People with this much skill and expertise usually forget the baby steps and skip to the shiny stuff and expect you to do the same which is frustrating and demotivating for the beginner. Shaun deserves a huge shoutout for his incredible ability to empathize and for keeping the "novice inside" still alive.

    • @mrpropergander6800
      @mrpropergander6800 3 роки тому +7

      Best tip for any beginner is to teach them to drop their weight in to their hips, rather than breathing air down into the lungs newbies draw air into the top of their lungs which pulls their weight up making them much more unstable.

    Thank you Alex and Shaun. I am about 4 months from being a complete beginner and backward skating is what I have been working on for the last month. I'll be adding the C-carve exercise and will practice it backwards for a few days to ingrain the motion before attempting to powerslide for the first time. I am very excited to learn the powerslide and now feel ready for it.
    I just want to reiterate my praise and thanks, you have broken things down wonderfully in this video and have shown a clear progression with something for everyone to practice.

    You are such an amazing teacher. I just got back into skating after not doing it for over 20 years and I have never learned this skill before because there was no one to teach me back then. Teaching us all the fundamentals and at the same time teaching us not to form the bad habits like turning the to the other shoulder to power stop is just next level teaching! Thank you so much. I hope to have mastered this skill with your video soon!

I have to say that you are very inspirational and your attention to detail in this video is exceptional. I have revisited this video because I finally feel comfortable to start learning this skill.

But, today, I actually brought you with me while I was out on my skates and practiced all of the lessons in order after reviewing each one - it was incredible how rapidly I progressed in skill and confidence! Amazing! Thank you for breaking it down into itty bitty pieces in such an incredible way. Your pedagogy is phenomenal. You made this so learnable. And practicing all of the parts as you demonstrated increased my confidence and my physical and intellectual understanding. Wow! This was such an amazing learning experience. I am so grateful.

    Just tonight I was at a skatepark and for the first time EVER stumbled onto skating backwards after coming off a slowing roll from the wall or halfpipe. I could roll backwards pretty well in the halfpipe but never from a standstill and as you know, rolling backwards is not the same as skating backwards. Been trying for months. Had I come across this video I could have started months ago though! Such great instructionals here. This will be my new go to video for getting into that backwards flow.

    Thanks to you both! I did not need to see it in slow motion to grab what I had to do. Everything was well explained: what to do with the feet, hips and where to put the weight, step by step. When you start to skate, at almost 48 you don't feel at ease when you don't know the technique. Not like children: 'Mom just jump, you will feel how to do it!' Yheh, but mom doesn't want to fall so much awaiting the feeling to come...This video was what I needed for learning to skate backwards! Merci beaucoup!

    I've just bought a pair of skates/blades for the first time in about 22yrs (I have skated at a rink a couple times since then) but have been wanting my own.
    As i kid/teen, i could never quite master going backwards from a stopped position and this video is going to help a ton and now I'm even more excited to get my blades tomorrow!

I learnt this from you guys about two years ago and I was naturally good looking over right shoulder so I only ever skated backwards looking over my left and levelled my left to be as good as right but I still naturally look over right when I have speed, Also your one footed backwards lesson in another tutorial is the best for backwards balance. Fantastic to see some more tutorials from you. Keep up the great work cause if you can make this 50 year young man as good as I am in two years you can and probably have taught so many people so again keep up the great work you do!!!

    Love your video! The warmer weather is pointing out! I've taken some ice skating classes during the winter so hopefully that'll help. Namaste from a Torontonian 37yo dad skating at beginner level.

    Excellent video... thanks so much for the very detailed explanation. I think my starting point will be the lemons to get used to moving backwards. I have tried other ways to move backwards and as soon as I start moving I feel terrified as I feel I'm gonna fall and hurt myself. But with the lemons I really think one can keep balance and lose fear to the backwards motion, until the body gets used to it. You have a great way to explain stuff, very calmly and little by little. This helps a LOT to newbies like me!
