- How to skate on rough ground // inline skating tip
Skating can be difficult enough to learn, but when you've grasped the basics and want to take yourself out on to real-life surfaces, things can feel impossible!
This little is something I use all the time while skating. It's good for any surface, but it's particularly useful for keeping yourself moving when skating rough terrain.
Give it a try.

The decisions on how to switch transitions from surface to surface in seconds must make the mind workout just as intense as the physical workout.
Yeah, I find multi-surface sessions much more taxing than rolling on a long smooth road. So much more for the mind and body to adjust to and way more fun! 😁
I agree. Things will get worse with constant rain and floods ruining the tarmac
Yes, but it helps if your roads are constructed fairly well in the first place!
Excellent. I've been struggling with this . It's tricky to go from smooth to rough surfaces. I've been learning at an outdoor skate arena but it's not always desirable to go out if my way to get there. I'd like to just rip out of my house onto the street. This is helpful. Thanks Rich! #Flowskate
i just need to practice being on inlines its harder than quads but be worth it.i have a quiet country road i can drive to its quite smooth.cant skate there yet as its downhil in the high st then up bit then long downhill section past church.i go fast on a bike down there.its great if you live by sea like a promenade.like penzance our holday i did roller disco there
Stick with it, it gets easier with practice. 👍
This was so good! Thanks
Amazing ..you is op...pro...tks for share...i was thinking about this ,because i will buy my first roller
I skate on quads 🖤but I love to blades also!!! This was a really good tutorial 👌🏾 thank you
Thanks! I hope it helps! 😁
Interesting technique haven't tried that one before I'll be sure to give it a go at it. I usually just raise my forward skate toe upwards before hitting the small speed bumps or irregular raise surfaces.
Raising your front wheel will have the same effect for sure; ☝️this is just an extension of that to allow you to propel yourself in the process so that you don’t stall and lose your momentum.
Dude your legs look nice 👍🏿 can’t wait to see what skating does
Thanks! Everyday is leg day when you’re a skater! 😂
Good tips as always :D
Thanks Dude! 🙏

Awesome to see a Scottish blader on youtube. I bladed for a few years. Those were good times.
Time to get back out there, Matey! 👍
@@RichHayterSkater I'm too old to fight off the bams now 🤣
😂😂
Subbed, simply because you sk8 so fucking smooth‼️
Thank you!
It takes some skill but it’s mainly just a determination to continually skate over crappy surfaces! 😁👍
Amazing dude. I’ve been skating since February and I’m so glad i came across this channel. You make some of the stuff look so easy. The curbs were mesmerizing sooo smooth. Mine are not like that 😅 how long have you been skating for?
Thanks!
I did some roller skating as a kid but I got serious about blading near the end of 2018, so about 3 years.
Back then I really struggled with regular streets and roads, but the goal was always to roll anywhere without having to travel to a smooth spot.
It does take practice, and the process can be frustrating, but having the freedom to roll wherever is the outcome if you’re willing to put in the work! 👍
How long did it take you to be as good as that? I just started skating this week and it’s my first time. I managed how to balance my self already but it’s frustrating coz I can’t be as fast and as smooth possible. I guess it will take me some time before I can roll smoothly
@kimiealcantara5893 Yeah, it is going to take some time until you are confident on your skates, but the reward is so worth the effort.
Practice often, and try to learn the basics such as parallel turns, the drag stop, and work on developing a good stride.
Time on your skates is what matters, so even short sessions will offer benefits.
Take your time, if you stick with it you will be hooked for life! 😁👍
@@RichHayterSkater Thank you so much for this. I’m gonna be more patient and practice everyday 💪
this road is so so smooth compared to the roads here
This is cool I can't skate over rough terrain without chipping my teeth or whatever, so I decided to go 3wd instead. Hopefully it will smooth out the terrain a lot
Bigger wheels will defo help smooth out the cracks and carry momentum, but shredding rough patches On a set of 80s can be hella-fun! 😁
I feel free now on bigger wheels, more than I thought I would, but I’m glad I ‘paid my dues’ on smaller wheels first.
@@RichHayterSkater I'm not a fast skater and can't build up the momentum to get going over rough stuff. I feel anxious like I'm going to hit a pebble or crack in the road and face plant....
Rough stuff can be frustrating but it really is worth persevering with. Just try and stick with what you’re comfortable with until you get more confident.
@@RichHayterSkater there's a guy on eBay selling rollerblade endurance 125 like the Viktor thorup guy uses. Those sound amazing for rolling effortlessly... And he's only asking $250 brand new. He has 9 left in stock. Rough streets definitely turn me off skating but I want to persevere.
Very helpful to me, i live in Taipei and pretty certain the government is married to tile manufacturers because there is tile everywhere. Even the kitchens are made of bathroom tile. Fortunately the underground car park where I live is very flat, smooth, and empty.
Yeah, those tiles are not good for wet weather skating!
That dry carpark sounds like a godsend!
@@RichHayterSkater it really is! The only tiles that don't become dangerously slippery when wet are the ones that are quite uneven and bumpy when dry, and the ones that are nice and flat are on the sidewalks, where foot-high drops in stairs or onto the streets are commonplace and it's just sudden, fairly steep inclines galore.
I call them ankle sprainers because even walking normally on then you can trip and really injure yourself. I guess I can see those as a way to challenge myself when I get good enough to traverse rougher terrain on tiny wheels.
Fell flat on my ass yesterday running to catch a bus to class in light rain. Fortunately once I get to campus it's a wonderful place to practice skating.
Do different wheels/boots absorb the vibrations differently or is that just something you get used to? Skating on roads feels like an earthquake sometimes to me 😅
Yes, generally speaking, a larger wheel and longer frame will give you more comfort and stability with less agility and movement. Notice I say, ‘generally’.
Your boot and liner will also help to give you some dampening from the surfaces you’re on. Look out for a decent shock absorber or even an insole.
Bros a God😮
Not quite! But thanks! 😀
Hey Rich! Any recommendations on wheels for general street skating like you're doing in your videos? Great tip here, thanks!
Hey! I’d stick with 85A and upwards. Lower will provide some vibration dampening, but a higher durometer tends to last a bit longer.
@@RichHayterSkater thanks!
Which skates are you riding in this video? What was your setup?
These are Rollerblade Metroblades. They use a flat 4x80 but I have a slight front rocker on these; the front wheel is probably around 76mm.
These have been discontinued, which is a shame.
when on these rough grounds, do you prefer to have smaller wheels for manuverability/stability or 110mm wheels for a smoother ride?
The larger wheels defo roll more easily over the rough, but sometimes it’s just great to shred your way over it on a set of smaller wheels! 😆
hi mate great video, i was wondering what type of wheels are you using? Im trying to break but my wheels are so gummy the friction is too much to drag or slide to break
These are Revolver wheels from Loco, 86a, pretty grip and durable. The gumminess should wear off pretty quickly with a session of carves.
That’s great but what do you do if you run into a tiny bloody rock?
Fight your way through!
Hi rich yes I’m learning inline been on quads a bit used do as a kid 45year go,my ankles ache bit but no pain no gain eh.I’ve been window cleaner 40 years but love that glide feeling .I’ve got the bug .want go round my estate bit hilly so do flat first not brilliant stop yet .was ok on quads hurt my ankle bit trying crossover too early on inlines.😮
Yes! It’s never too late to get out and skate! There are a few differences between quads and inlines so just take your time. Learning to stop will open doors for you so I’d make a priority.
Stick with it! You can’t beat that glide!
@@RichHayterSkater yes i will get the stop sorted very soon thanks .i could flick round easy and stop ok on quads on toe stops.ive actually got one stop on the powerslide swll lite 100 skates i bought.
@@RichHayterSkater Just had a skate up my country road near my home.I had been working about 6 hours.There is a slight downhill section that I find bit scary when I was on quads .it’s a bit narrow the road but it’s quiet so you can hear traffic coming around slight kink in road.My ankles were aching I almost felt like jumping off skates but no hang in there.I turned around so skating up hill.I found got in but of a rhythm scything left right.don’t feel my ankles ready for transition from forward to backward yet.I’m going to do lemons in my kitchen like asha shows you to do backwards.I will probably .do the little jump around like I do on quads to turn around I’m confident with that.I’m not sure if it’s my worn out window cleaners body giving me the aches or Just age.need try skating when not working.but can’t t retire yet.try an easier day today before skate.I’m self employed and it’s quite hilly where I live.can plan out little routes by me to practice or keep my skates in campervan(my office) 😊 with me to try out new spots.
Just take it easy and avoid long durations this might be causing aches and pains. Listen to your body you don’t want to put yourself off due to pain. 👍
@@RichHayterSkater yes thanks rich,been practicing
Lemons and bill Stoppard backward skate tips
Is it ok to skate on the street with the wheels that come on the skates or do i have to buy special wheels for street skating i use inline skates and idk if the wheels will wear down fast but if u have any recommendations on wheels to use on the street id love to hear them
Wheels are a personal preference. So you should sample a few different types to see what suits your style of skating.
A softer wheel will provide better traction and comfort, but will wear quicker. I favour a slightly harder wheel, because they last longer over rougher surfaces, and are better to slide with.
Use the wheels that came with your skates, then decide if you want to go harder or softer. 👍
how to transition to and from curbs (sidewalks onto streets) without falling down
Just roll off on both skates using the scissor stance. 👌
It looks like you are putting center of gravity towards the back of the skate on the front leg? vs. center/front for smoother ground.
Yeah, this allows you to raise the toe a little to roll over rough ground with relative ease. 👍
Trails u got there are actually a good trails for Russia (sadly). Most of trails here are paved, dem coverings are huge pain in the ass ngl... Buuut your tips are actually useful huge thanks!
You’re welcome! Keep rolling, Amigo!👍
How about when you are already on not so smooth surfaces, to be specific cobalt stones surfaces or full length cobalt layered streets... that's your starting point as opposed to some already fairly smooth surfaces like tarmac or so (city skating)
Try finding the smoothest line through, but sometimes you may just be forced to duck-walk your way out of it!
I feel like its too hard to push forward and maintain speed on rough roads. Any extra tips please?
Maintaining momentum is important but it can be difficult to do on rough ground as you lose speed quickly, which is why there is a need to continuously propel yourself. This is challenging on the rough because the surface is uneven.
I like the game of ‘Finding the smoothest line.’ This is where you actively traverse the surface you are on, moving across it to find the smoothest like through it. It always feels like you’re battling you’re way through, moving with strategic intention across the terrain. You won’t be moving as quickly, and it can be quite energy consuming, but it’s very satisfying, and way more fun than stumbling your way through. It takes focus and time but it’s well worth it! 👍
@@RichHayterSkater Thanks for your time, really appreciate it!
What kind of wheels r u rolling on? Brand?
These are either the original Rollerblade urban wheels or Loco Skate Revolver wheels, both are excellent! 👌
What's the one thing needed in order to get good at this and an overall good skater?
STAY CONSISTENT!
This cannot be overstated!, especially with the basics!👆
@@RichHayterSkater I'm not quite sure in what way you mean?
I mean keep skating consistently, even if it’s just for 15 or 20mins each day; consistent time on your wheels will help you get comfortable with basics like striding, stopping, carving.
Once you’re comfortable with these, venture consistently onto a different surfaces and gradients.
@@RichHayterSkater Ok. Very hard in winter with weather and I can only afford the skate rink once a week.
That said, I put my skates on in doors and do some exercises
do you skate anywhere? do you travel with your skates?
Yes and Yes! 😁
Do wheels wear out faster on rough surfaces?
They probably wear a bit quicker on rougher surfaces.
@@RichHayterSkater what type of durable wheels would you recommend buying?
as much as I wanna practice this, I can't cause most of the roads in my area arent smooth at all :')
Find some smooth ground, practice this technique, use it on the rough roads! 👌
One set of wheels per week?
Ha! Not quite! Despite the terrain, I can usually make my wheels last…. 2 weeks! 😁
Awesome skating my man, very inspiring, I'm new to the blades but familiar on the skateboard an longboards, luv blading man it's one the best things to do on earth regardless of how rich anyone is, peace take care and thanks for the reply! And top videos
@jimcheers4341 Thanks! stick with it! Skating only gets better! 👌
His knees tell a story
I’m intrigued, what story do they tell?
It looks so effortless, i wont be able to do that even in a year 😢😢😢😢😢
In the words of William Wallace “Ye can! And ye will! 🏴
Give it time and consistent practice and you will get there. 👍
