Thank YOU for watching and for your support!
Hailleyscomment omg same!!
8:30 minutes in. Thinks to self “I love you”
girl, agreed ❤️
Me skating now: stoppers are so useful, I need these to survive
Me beginning skating: ha ha ha simpletons
*ever heard of the wall*
🤣🤣 this was me at the beginning ( 2weeks ago)but because I was so scared to fall using my toe stop. Finally learning to use my toe stop and t stop and now going to try and do both toe stops. Slowly but surely.
I dream of the day that I look a fraction as cool on skates on this.😀 My last practice I kept saying, “Down with the butt, up with the gut” over and over as I tried to do that cruising move. You’ve made me hyper aware of my snack area, too. These videos are all gold! Could you please do a tutorial in the future on 3 turns?
Thank you very much! I am so glad you are practicing! I will definitely do a 3-turn tutorial.
@@Dirtydeborahharry Thank you! I'm looking forward to practicing the double toe stop here but currently have exactly the kind of toe stop you warned against. I think my new skates will arrive in April, and they will have proper adjustable toe stops. Another series of videos I would love at some point is tips on skate maintenance and how to's: how to rotate wheels, take out bearings and clean/lube them or whatever we need to do, adjust toe stops, etc. That way your channel could be one-stop shopping for me. :)
@@eftjem I am making that video! Stay tuned. Are you current toe stops rubber or plastic?
Dirty School of Skate For the last month I’ve been skating on Candi Girls, which have a pretty much useless plastic toe stop. I can safely stop by sliding one toe stop back but not both.😮 Riedell is making me a pair of custom Moxi Jackboots (purple!), and they will be a whole new experience, not the least because of indoor wheels along with proper toe stops.
@@Dirtydeborahharry I'm loving your videos! I just got a pair of Sure Grip Boardwalks with 70 route wheels and I thought they were pretty good skates. (200 bucks). Now I"m sad because they have a non-adjustable toe stop :(
Does this mean they are not good skates?
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: why are you so damn awesome!? Yet again, such a thorough, well detailed, beautifully explained and articulated, informative tutorial! You are so inspiring and encouraging, with a smile as bright as sunshine! Damn I hope to be able to meet you when I get back to LA! And 1 million thanks to Xavier who is making it possible for you to share all of this with us!☀️🙌🏽🙏🏽 Have a fantastic vacation!
Thank you so much! Your words are so kind and really make me feel so grateful. Make we skate together in the future :)
I wish I could skate all night in a skating rink I would be there all day every day~💛
Same
T
I went every day that they were open. People thought that I worked there.
I wish I have a rink near my town :(
meena there is no normal skate park in my city :(
Am I the only one who is addicted to the sound of wheels on the rink? Who needs music? LOL We NEED stops at my rink. We do a "Topsy Turvey" skate...go around as normal, guard blows the whistle, we stop, turn around, go in the opposite direction....etc. for a whole song. It's SO much fun. One of the few fun things the rink does. My daughter was hilarious last time...she runs jam plugs on her skates...stopping fast and turning around...PRICELESS! LOL I love the double toe stop when going backwards, but I've seen SO many snapped ankles when rolling forward and using stops because people panic and "hit the brakes hard" instead of easing into it. :( I refuse to use them when going forward. I prefer the T-stop when rolling forward....besides, it's fun to hear the wheels "skid" across the rink floor!!! (P.S. Is it Saturday yet????? LOL My girls and I got new skate t-shirts this week...can't wait to wear them!)
"and arch your back"
me (with scoliosis): No.
Terrified to use my toe stops... it's just so scary and difficult! I'm afraid that the moment I stop, my momentum will make me hit the floor hard. Hopefully this video helps for the next time I practice....
Good god, I have needed this video.
When u stood up like Michael Jackson...I knew... Ur my social media mentor from now on..🖤
Hi Debbie I am a 42 year old man and not had roller skates on since I was a kid. My 9 year old and 6 year old have started getting into skating as we now have a roller disco in our town. I was bit nervous putting the skates on again in my 40s so started watching your videos, to be honest I have done very well and I have even had other dad's asking me for tips. I say get on you tube and get the same advice I did by using your videos. Can I ask tho I now have my own skates but! I am needing some advice on wheels I am from Scotland in uk and skate stoped are not so common any tips on purchasing wheels?
Dirty Debra Harry!!! I took a class of yours at Rollercon in say, 2013. I've never been so happy to find a youtube randomly. You're such a gem!
Yeah! I am teaching at my 13th Rollercon this year!
oh awesome! You're class was super fun and you're a great skater!
Yes i feel like the toe stop is kinda hard. First i leaned over and fall of course. Being more upright helps a lot. Takes time to learn how to do it perfectly. I have skates without adjustable toe stops, thank God i feel it's the right hight. Thanks for this video sweety!
You are the woman! Been feeling rather down for too long and I think learning to skate by practicing from your videos will lift me up. Then it’s roller derby or bust! Thank you so much for your time and dedication
Do it! Go practice ... it WILL help!
4:05 !!!!! WHOA!!!! YAAAASSSS GIRL!!😯😄🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much for these vids (especially the cruising how-to!) They’re helping so much!!! 😭❤️
Now I just need “Snacks Tight” and “Down with the butt, Up with the gut” on a shirt and I’m set to hit the rink!🙈😂🍕🍟⛸
Omg yes! I will make those shirts!!!!!
I came here because I’m going skating with my crush tomorrow and I need to know how to stop just so that I don’t embarrass myself in front of him if I ever ran into someone. 😂😂
Hey Deborah, I love your videos! You're wonderful and I'm so glad that I live in an age where I can learn from you and other great skaters online like this. For years I've learned how to crochet, knit, and so many more things through UA-cam; now I can add rollerskating to that list. Thank you for all you do and I'm having a blast learning from your videos. Just started skating about a month ago after only inline skating as a child. Lots of love from Miami, Fl.
You are so welcome! I can imagine all the beautiful spots to skate in Miami!!!
I adore my toe stops!!! One of the fun things about quad skates is stopping on your toes!
Agreed
Power brakes!!!
Yay!!! I've been waiting for this video!!!
You're such an awesome teacher! Thank you for making all these skating tutorials; they are incredibly helpful! Keep up the great work! Sending you lots of love from Michigan :)
Omg... I’m new to skating and my jaw dropped when I saw how easily you stopped in toe stops!!!!
Got my self some beach bunnies, this will sure come in handy when they arrive👾❤
I love how you're so positive and full of energy!❤
Will you please do a how to on crossovers while backwards??
Yes. I have one in the works on crossovers and crosspulls.
I swear you always have the most informative, but easiest to follow videos! Thank you!!!
Thank you!!!
That toe stop spin had me like.... 😲🤯🙌🙌🤩
Keep the tutorials coming! We love them 💜
I need to practice my spins to be like yours 😭😭 great video 👏🏻🤙🏼
Yes! Practice!!!!!
One of the VERY BEST UA-cam channels.... Nuff said! Nice job darlin
Thank you so much :)
Aha! Roll back on WHEELS FIRST, then drop toe stop.
Thank you 😊
What is the difference in the wheels you skate on. In some of your videos you have the super small wheels. Your videos are fan-as-tic!
The small ones are used for sliding. Check the video description box of every video for my skate setups.
My daughter and I are gonna skate tomorrow. Eeek! My first time in 30 years and she (18 years) has only skated at a party over 10 years ago.
Welcome back. Hope you had fun!
Hey Deb, great vid as always 🙏. Enjoy your holiday 😁
When I used to roller skate as a teen I never learned how to stop so I would just bang into the wall to stop! LOL This time around I want to actually learn how to skate properly!
I like the way you think.
You’re amazing and you take time to help people. It’s a sweet and noble thing of you to share your time with us. I still am really struggling stopping but hopefully soon I’ll get better.
Hey remember me?
Update: I went skating and did all your tricks I did so well I can’t wait to come back!
So happy to ready this!
I love your profile picture! But I’m having trouble with my skates while stoping but I think there my skates sense there cheat 50 dollar amazon skates but they are pretty lose to so I’m kinda stuck
Absolutely love this video! You look great in black & yellow, btw.
Thank you! I bought that shirt and was very doubtful at first. I was like "Do I look like a bizarre bumble bee in this?"
I really love your vids! Happy vacation!
I just signed up for a class. It’s for beginners, but they prefer that we know how to do something already, including how to stop. Thank you!
Great video thanks!!!!
Would you do a video on the different types of skates beginner intermediate and advanced. Include boot styles, plate styles, wheel styles with benefits and advantages/disadvantages of the type.
I just had a skate built I wanted a low boot without velcro because velcro wears out over time. And I got a plate with a 45* avenger plate. And found that the maneuverability was amazing but there was no one describing or demonstrating the advantages just describing them. But I still have questions about things like cushions, tuning the skate, bearing benefits, how wheel hardness effects the ride etc.
Yes. Huge topic but yes!
I'd love to get into skating and I'm looking at getting my first pair, any recommendations?
What is your budget?
For good skates, I'd say Impala skates are pretty high quality on the lower end of the price range. Chicago is cheaper, but they are low quality and more for kids.
I literally taught someone “down with the butt, up with gut” during my last skate session. She said I helped her so much figuring out how to level up! I’m always sharing with everyone how much I’ve learnt online before I come and put it to physical practice and just how much it helps me!
You make it look so graceful!

Thx for this video IV been needing this I❤️u
You're awesome Debbie! I am re-learning in my 30s and your tutorials are so helpful and fun. 💕
Thank you for making this! You’re amazing ❤️
Question about toe stop drag!
A friend if mine (derby, trail skating etc) told me that I should never toe stop drag cuz I'll break my ankle..... I don't rink skate (only one rink in Oregon 😔) so I am out in trails etc most of the time. Is toe stop drag an acceptable stop on outdoor terrain? I feel like it's considered a very beginner or faux pax move..... But sometimes a turnaround toe stop is too scary or plow stop isn't fast enough. Thoughts?
Jdksksoocksk I'm so excited to feel comfortable in my skates I CAN'T! It gets me all stoked just watching. Never seen a chick that roller skates that wasn't super super cool.
Hey d,believe dis,gal.i watch every single of yours videos.... you. Break-it-down-step-by--step....so rest of the copy-cats as me sooo much inhale true quad life style.last but true,yes practice
Hey Dirty Debra Harry! You Rock! I loved the fact that you can spin on that toe stop! As a Detroit skater ,Ive been doing that for many years.😄 I hope to come to Cali one day and roll with DDH! Keep up the good work!
This is my biggest nightmare 😱 I am rolling outside, and to afraid to try, because I fall 2 months ago, and still my behind is hurting a bit. But, U have explained it to every detail, so I must try it and learn it 😊
By the way, love what you are doing, and thank you so much for it 😊 ❤️❤️❤️ I am from Serbia (former Yugoslavia) and we do not have a rink to play, so, everything is done outside, only when is good weather. And no one to teach us, only on our own.
Have every day a blast 🎉 Thank you ❤️ HVALA ❤️
Thank you for this!!
Love!!!! Get your Quad's on..... Rock, Skate, Roll, Bounce......
Thank you Debbie for another fantastic video. It was very informative. You are amazing. I only wish I had this information in the 1980s. Xavier you do a fantastic job with a camera.
Thank you so much lovely lady!!!! ❤💖😘
You are so direct and funny at the same time! Thank u! Toe stopping with both skates is really hard because they don’t easily slide at first. You have to balance the pressure in the toe stop vs the front wheels and have the posture... right? I need to learn this because sometimes you JUST NEED TO STOP at a skatepark and also learn the tricks on stopping backwards. Let’s practice!
YOU ARE SUCH A PRO!!!!!!
Was anyone else hating on that entrance 😂 like hi-ya screech 😂
I love my toe stops in both forms but my adjustable ones are def waaay better. After learning how to run on them at derby practice and being the outside skater I am.. I can't ditch them entirely 😊
Is it possible to overwear my skates? Lol. I am wearing them all day home! I do laundry, dishes, cook, read...ll in my skates from end of the house to the other. Too much fun! 😍
Enjoy your vacation!
Got my skates in yesterday and may or may not have tried to stop by just Michael Jackson HeeHee style fling myself forward on my toestops👁️👄👁️ that wasn't it.
Hi! What hardness do you suggest for a beginner using toe stops? Is 75a too soft? Should I use 83a toe stops? Help!! Thanks :)
I'm a baby skater and I want to take lessons from you! I've been watching your videos and I love you ❤️❤️❤️
This is a great video. I wasn't able to get adjustable toe stops because lack of choice. Covid-19. When we started skating it was a no no to use the toe stops. I'm going to be using mine. As always thankyou for the great advice.🌹
Hi Dirty! Loving your videos! I’m a newbie and about to buy my first pair of skates and take lessons. What’s best kind of toe stopper for indoor? Rubber or plastic? Or does it matter for a beginner?
You look gorgeous!! ❤️
I loved. I saw your video on how to manage with the help of the body. Deborah, I had never paid attention to the video before and now that I took it, tomorrow I will put into practice the curve with the help of the body.
We are always learning.
Oh gosh it must been met for me to see this video this evening because I was practicing transitions today and picking up a little speed and was trying to used my toe stops and was all over doing the wobble. After watching this video, now I know what I was doing incorrect.
Thank you so much❤ I watch this video and practice, but for me is easier backwards, will try to practice forward😨
You're awesome Debrah, Happy belated Birthday👌
Lol I never thought toe stops were useless, but when I was around 7 years old I would try to use them and would fall every friggin time so I just found other ways to stop and havent used them since and I'm 18 turning 19 this year lol.. Maybe I'll try again soon because I'm recently getting into skating more often since there isnt too much to do in my city.
You’re so sweet! I appreciate your gratitude. I’ll always watch your videos for that reason.
I love her 😍😍 I'm learning so much
I can't believe I actually did the backwards toe stop! You truly rock!
I love the “skirrrrrt” noise your skates make when you stop with both toe stops on the ground 🤣 Dirty, I’m about to tear up these floors in my house!! “Skirt skirt!” Haha
Omggg you’re such a great skater and instructor
You are really fun. I learn and laugh watching you're videos. Great skating too!
Uhhhh I love you . You have been so much help you don’t even know ! Buttttt if you could , what skates are best to get for dancing !?
Thank you for your videos. They are really good and so helpful the way you break down all the steps and then bring them together. You have a beautiful skating rink.
You are so beautiful💙💙💙💙
Dre nyc she fr is!
Thank you very much :)
Thank you! Your videos got me from looking at my new skates wanting to use them, to out skating and practicing. Thank you!
Hello! Just getting into roller skating at my 40s and I want to thank you for these super fun and useful videos!
I love your attitude and the way you explain! Thank you for all the help, your videos are the best 🤍
3:18
1. Skate
2. Down
3. Shift
4. Rollback (arch)
5. Drag
Omg that backwards skating was intense!!! So cool!!!
I love your videos, I just got new skates and have been watching and practicing as much as I can. I have a quick question, is there anything I can do with new skates to soften the two stop a little? The stops are super stick so when I try a to stop I either stop too quick and fall on my face or one foot stops dead and the other keeps going and end up in the splits 😬
How can I use my toe stops better?
It's getting really frustrating how many roller derby players are going around telling everyone to never ever use the toe stop drag when moving forwards. And it doesn't matter how many champion artistic skaters tell them otherwise, they are adamant that it is always dangerous and won't believe that it's possible to drag a toestop safely in the rink!
Wished I lived closer, would live there! LOL
After 28 years from my last roller skating. I just took my 13 years old out over Christmas. I am restarting to learn how to roller skate again at 69 years old:) Thanks for the useful videos. Don't have any roller skate rink around here. So I use the local church parking lot, instead. Safe, big space and there are priests who could give me my last rites, in case of I have a heart attack and died LOL
This is amazing! Skating brings the generations together!!! Now get the priests out skating and more people will come to mass :)
@@Dirtydeborahharry LOL! The matter of fact. I live in Bangkok. And the Priests here are the Thai Monks. They are NOT allowed to have fun:( Too bad for them:( I bought my pair of roller skate in Delaware, in 2006. And it was resided in my shipping box, until then:) Don't worry! I have no intention to over do it. I want to live until I am in very late 90's and enjoy the roller skating. I might state on my will to have them put my roller skate in my coffin too:)
In the States, the of the roller skate rinks were counter-clock wind. So I have a hard time to make a right turn!!! I can easily do the cross-over for the life turn. Any solution for that? Thanks:)
@@Dirtydeborahharry Hi Dirty School of Skate; . I have a question for you:) In Thailand here, we don't have many Roller Skate rinks. If there is one, it would be for kids roller blades skate and the rink is very small. . I use quad roller skate. So I have to go for roller skate on the bumpy road( full with pot holes ). . Are there any suggestion of how to roller skating on such the road surface and sometimes with the traffic for an senior citizen? . " Old roller never die, he just keeps on rolling " Thanks in advance. Sam
My daughter and I are skating partners. I have always wished someone would take my place. Maybe her new husband is a skater. I hope so. I may have to retire in a few years, I ain't getting no younger ya know! We shall see. I will skate as long as I can and hope he takes my place.
Anyone saying toe stops are useless doesn’t know what they’re talking about, plenty of people like myself out there who can skate well but not skate amazingly, stopping the only way you know how so as to avoid plowing into someone else at the rink or on the street or any other given situation where stopping will avoid injury to yourself or others, if the toe stopper is the only way you know how then it’s one of the most important things to know/learn/use.
I'm not really a person that smiles but just remembering when I skated I just smile and I can't help it
i can not stop with one foot, i can but it never works..im sure im not the only one thats why this video was requested again ...💋
I'm gonna get back into skating, how do you slide your wheels sideways to stop and is that bad on the wheels. Thanks
Love this video!!!! Can your next topic be on how tight or how lose the wheels of skates should be at all times? Help!!!
I have one in the works!!!
Can u do a video on ways to wear your skates?some people tie the tongue down and I never know why or how they do it.
I learn roller skating in 1 week just by watching ur vids
❤️❤️❤️ love this.
I absolutely love your tutorials!! Can u pls help me with one foot turns and spins? I just cant figure out how to do those correctly 😥
Watch for my 3-turn video coming soon!
Question do the size of the toe stop matter with using the two toe stop ? Oop as I’m typing this you started to explain thank you soooo much !!!
