Learn to Inline Skate: Crossovers Tutorial

Поділитися
Вставка
  • Опубліковано 5 лют 2025
  • Crossovers are a very important skill to learn in inline skating, and one of the first skills beginners should be learning after having learned to skate forward in a straight line.
    Crossovers are a great way to take a wider turn while generating speed, and also great for picking up speed in a straight line.
    In this video I show you how to learn the crossover step by step: we start standing still, then take our first mini-steps while rolling, progress to doing continuous crossovers in a circle, and then finish off with linear crossovers to build up speed while skating forward!
    Enjoy the video and have fun practicing!

    Another great video. My 6yo daughter Jessica just took up inline skating a few weeks ago. I got some skates to join her.
    I had a few goes. Didn't even realise I was turning wrong until I saw your other video. Now I've wanted to try cross overs. This will really help.

      @@MarcelsHockeySchool Hey Marcel, I tried the tips from this video. They were tremendously helpful. The tip about the upper torso tilt thing was quite profound as my crossovers look a lot better and feel much easier to execute. Would you say the same idea of leaning away (with your upper body) from the direction of the turn applies to skating backwards?

      Thanks! Usually because of your momentum you don’t really need to worry about stepping in front of far enough - that happens on its own. So just make sure you’re lifting high enough to cross the skate over.
