Thank you for this video! I've been watching tutorials before I try skating and no beginner tutorials explain how to turn! They just expect you to know, but I want to learn with the proper form
Dude you helped me so much! Thank you! I've been practicing the wrong way for a couple months on and off now and it was killing me why I wasn't getting better at turning I picked this up in 2 days and can already see improvements! Now I just need to get better at braking lol
Thank you so much! I haven't inline skated in almost 10 years, I used to love it as a child and I was great at it, but all I remembered was how to skate, not to turn or stop correctly. I'm pretty much a shut in teen and well. I love inline skating so I got skates to be more active again, sadly the weather isn't the best, but once the weather gets better again I'm gonna ne skating like there's no tomorrow, only thing being that we don't have a skate park nor big empty areas, so I'll have to find some places close to that. But you just saved me, cause I did not remember how to turn at all!
Hmm. I seem to turn the opposite ways, lol. When I try to go left, I use my right foot to turn left and vice versa. I guess I have to practice more! Ty darling! 🖤
This is a must tutorial! This will help me to know what I need to be doing/thinking when I have to turn. It will also help to clean up my turning. I’m very happy you showed us the wrong and the right way to turn so that we don’t look like complete beginners. Everyone needs to be thinking about these turning tips. Thank you Brandon. It’s these “little things” that make a huge impact on rollerblading. Oh, btw did that sign say Pikachu @1:45 😂
Thanks for watching man! Turning is super important! A lot of people skip learning it properly. 😅The sign says the name of the memorial park. It's a Maori name 🔥
Great tutorial with brilliant explanation, first time skating with inlines , I must be a little backwards though 😂😂 When I try the turn I can't turn with leading foot, my trailing foot dictates the turn🤣🤣 It works for me but feels alien to try turning with the lead foot.
Hey. I love your video. I started couple weeks ago. I can go fast and stuff but still can’t turn properly. I tend to lift my foot and face it the direction I’m turning or I brake with one foot and use the other foot to turn. I do the exact stances for #2 and I try leaning towards the direction I’m turning but I don’t turn. At all it’s hard😓
How is your weight distribution during the curve? I end up shifting more to the front leg during the curve, but I don't know if it's right. My back leg becomes loosen and draged by the front one. Kind of resemble a power slide but curving.
cheers man! been struggling with the Derek Zoolander syndrome myself (can't turn left! :-S) turns out i've been leading with the wrong foot this whole time!
thanks. still struggling though admittedly my first year my liner was quite painful .. 72 aeons and ive not skated for 12 years so if like to be able to turn by xmas ;)
I used to skate back in the late 90s to mid 2000s but the main way we turned was to t-stop until we were going slow enough then push with our back foot to get the front foot going in the direction we wanted and then push off with the back foot to get speed again.
Hello from Chile. I've been really struggling with the parallel turn. Just can't figure it out 😢. Any further advice? Been watching way many vids about this issue and still can't accomplish the turn. Thnx
Hi: I’ve been Inline skating for a year mostly street, I do have Roces 1992 and love them. I also got a pair of Roces M12 because I’ll love to ride bowls as I do with my skateboard. Even having the same skate and brand, I noticed that the turning with my M12’s is very difficult. I’m not running anti rockers and still very different. I am wondering why is so difficult with aggressive skates. Is it the heel inclination or is the sole plate? Any ideas? Thank you!
Thanks for watching 🙏 Always look where you want to end up. On a quarter you should look at the coping/the top of the quarter as you roll up to it. Then as you come back down, look where you want to go.
Brandon, greetings from Sydney, Australia. I have a tricky question, so let me set the scene. Crosssovers... So, in short, I'm right-handed, and when I cross over, it's like I'm a gorgeous black sea creature on blades. I can cross over with my right foot in beautiful balance and control the speed of the cross (slow, fast, or even balance on my left blade and take my time), but when I try to cross over with my left foot, it's disgusting. I have no idea what my right foot is doing, it's rushed, and it looks like I'm about to trip because I'm off balance. Everything is messed up. Please give me some advice. When I try to cross from left to right, my right foot just hangs there and doesn't push, whereas when I cross from right to left, I can feel the foot pushing out to maintain speed as the crossover occurs. It's a complete disaster, and I'm now only "crossing over" on my right side, rather than my left. Thanks Tim
I would start by working on having really solid, stable forward outside edges on both sides. Get some speed up and push and hold the outside edge for as long as possible. Then do the same for inside edges. The crossover is a series of outside and inside edges, alternating. If one side is better than the other, which is quite normal, it may be because one of those edges is weaker than the other. Practice the push part by doing chasses in a circle, making sure you really re-bend to load the weight before each push. Practice being in the crossed over position, perhaps slowly or with the help of a friend or in your shoes or on grass. It's an uncomfortable position and feels like if you fell you'd break your leg - there's a resistance there, which you can slowly overcome by getting used to the position in less challenging situations. This is a good one to watch: ua-cam.com/video/j7u6myjsYIY/v-deo.html&ab_channel=PowerslideInlineskates
newbie here so not sure what im doin but i can turn with reverse staggered position easier than turning with lead foot in front. cant really bend my ankle too much in the lead position stagger maybe i have the top strap too tight. also when i try it feels like my rear leg gets kind of stuck and starts drifting apart in the stance during the turn. but the reverse stagger definitely wrong but seems to turn just fine actually though i can feel the balance being kinda sketchy to say the least but it turns sooooo. also the tip tap is good too bit jank but that also turns.
I've been skating for a few months now, I still can't do number 2. I also noticed my left foot seems to always tilt inwards even on a normal stride. turning left is by far my most difficult thing to do on the rollerblades
I wanna be you. I can drop in jump back up and also pump. I can basically skate a skatepark but haven’t learned to turn yet. Edit. I can also do crossovers.
Hi BladingCoach here. A basic turn in theory doesn't have a leading foot. Try a shoulder distance stance with parallel feet. Extend your arms and pointer fingers at eye level then point and look where you want to go. Then drop arms and turn your head and shoulders.... remember head shoulders knees and toes.
This can take a while to do without thinking. What parts are you struggling with? I don't remember ever trying to learn it but I would assume it took me a few months for it to be natural.
@@BrandonDrummond Not the same guy, but I'm struggling with the turning of my "inside" foot. I have flat aggressive skates, and I just struggle to take that gradual turn, leaning doesn't seem to do much for me. Do I have to take some weight off of that foot or something?
For some reason when I turn I do the second one but my feet go the opposite corners and I try alot to make it look like yours but I just can't. I need helppp

I'm starting to get frustrated because I just CAN'T turn with my left foot forward. From what it feel like, I'm probably putting too much weight on my right foot, but that's mostly because I fractured my left me a couple years back and there's this one part of this that pops in and out of place on occasion even though they said "it'll be gone in a month" It's been 7 YEARS.
@@BrandonDrummond in skateboarding, tic tac is referred to lifting while making tiny turns or to regain balance. I assumed it could've also transferred to other sports as well. This Antix btw. Hi. Lol
so is it retardation or bad genes only that hinders me from frikkin turning. I have watched 100 of these, and of cource i can turn but NOT with leading fot in front (turning right, right fot in front not possible for me) almost giving up on inlines due to this.
About #1. What's wrong with "looking like a noob"? You can't get away from that. I say embrace being a beginner. Looking like a beginner should never be the reason not do do something.
You face is more prominent than the tutorial video. If it's distracting. It would be better if you teach directly by showing by doing and talking at the same time like many others do. You talking at the side is highly distracting while the actual step video is showing in small size.
Dude you helped me so much! Thank you! I've been practicing the wrong way for a couple months on and off now and it was killing me why I wasn't getting better at turning I picked this up in 2 days and can already see improvements! Now I just need to get better at braking lol

Good tutorial with clear explanations. Keep doing more 🙂👍
Will do! Thanks for the feedback & for watching!
LOL this was so easy for people to understand. Brandon killin it. GO BLADING!
Thanks so much man!
Great Video Brandon, I'm really getting a lot of value from your channel. And the nails look great too :)
Thanks I just started today
Currently able to the third method, but I️ need to improve my box stance lol.

I've been doing the same. When I go left I lead with my right foot and vise versa. Idk why I can do it the way he doesn't I just don't turn lol
thank you so much!
Thank you so mutch, i have tryed so many tut, but i was to scared to make a turn, but today i did it, thanks to your video 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

And the weight on the feet's shifts a bit more to the heel. Also think I'm doing wrongly.
Thank you!
Very useful information!

can you do a video where our body weight should be. and where we should be re inside or outside of wheel. with body weight transitioning
Hello from Thailand 🤗 Thank you for this video i'm the beginner of inline skate and this video is my problem . i can not turning like you said 😭
Now you can...
Hey! Thanks for watching! I hope this helps you master turns 🙏
Thank you!!!
I dunno if it's being older with some back issue in recent years. I suddenly can't turn left. Only right without really hurting
Brandon rocks
Great video my man! Really good advice.
The tip tap is the only way I can turn but I mean if it’s on this list of how to turn I guess I’m doing ok
Hello from Chile. I've been really struggling with the parallel turn. Just can't figure it out 😢. Any further advice? Been watching way many vids about this issue and still can't accomplish the turn. Thnx
Why can I do the tip tap but not the regular turn?
10/10 but I may be a little biased
Been skating a year on and off now, can turn on a penny left but still really struggle on the right !
What skates are those?

Nice brother 👏👏
I really liked the advice on looking where you want to go. So let me ask, where do I look when I'm going up on a quarter pipe?
Thanks for watching 🙏
Always look where you want to end up. On a quarter you should look at the coping/the top of the quarter as you roll up to it. Then as you come back down, look where you want to go.
Does this also work on antirocker?
Yeah... Except on anti, you have to kinda lift your toes a lil... Like on roller skates...
Yes
Yep it does! It will just be harder and you will need to lean into it more

So you don't recommend doing like a swivel turn at a slow speed? I seen this on Acosta blades video for stopping?
Looks like Ricardo Lino's newest video thumbnail. Lol.
I saw that! Super bad timing! Lino's thumbnails better anyway 😅
I just find it impossible to lean on the foot that I’m turning on I keep making a triangle is there any tips that could help me get out of this?
better than lino's
How long into skating would you be able to do this? I'm 7 months and have difficulty with scissor turn on edges

@@ZorroLocoStudiosYes, try shift you wait as you lean towards the inside of your turn. See if that helps.
I got used to skating and the balance is there but the longer I skate I keep slipping. So I'm just here on some tips to keep my poster.
Having the inside foot forwards feels backwards. As soon as I bring one foot forward I start turning the other way
