      It’s extra hard because it’s done at speed so the turn is almost a little jump. It will come as you get more experienced. I should do a separate video on this skill.

I hope everything is ok with you, and that I haven't annoyed you to the point where you don't wanna reply anymore.

    When I was in high school, there was this thing we had to do in gym class at the end of the year where we had to go and skate around the neighborhood and park.
    I hated how the teachers just ASSUMED we were all experts, and did this in our spare time or something. I was the kid that was lagging behind, because I didn't want to do this, not knowing how to stop, and generally just not having fun.
    I nearly lost my life that day, or got my leg run over, and couldn't stop myself and nearly went out to a busy road. I had to deliberately make myself fall backwards on my bum in order to stop.
    The gym teacher finally caught wind of this, grabbed my arm, and pulled me back to the sidewalk.
    I was fuming that I was even here. To diffuse the tension, the gym teacher smiled and went, "I just saved your life!"
    Yeah. Great. Thanks for that. But you wouldn't have to do that, if people didn't assume all of us know how to skate/stop.
    If only I knew your advice sooner.

Sometimes someone right In front of us falls or stops suddenly, and we don’t know how to stop at high speed….and in a range of one meter. Could you show that in a future video please? Much appreciated!

    • @Skatie
      @Skatie  2 роки тому +2

      Great question. These situations can be really scary and sudden. In this scenario I’d go for the emergency stop 🛑 of a 180 and both toe stops down. It does require the ability to transition / turn quickly so needs some practice but works really well. My video this Sunday covers the emergency stop. Also in this situations sometimes trying to avoid by using a sudden movement left of right can also work well. I tend to do a little side step / jump action.

    Is balancing required in doing T stop or toe stop ? The friction from it makes me trip and fall.. wat could be the issue?

    • @Skatie
      @Skatie  3 роки тому +1

      The T-stop is a more advanced stop than the plough as you need to be able to balance on one leg while the other drags behind. Applying gentle pressure with the braking foot initially should help with controlling the friction. After a bit of practice you’ll feel the right amount of pressure to apply. Make sure you’ve got your safety gear on if you’re falling. Stay safe and happy rolling x

  • @msericaplease
    @msericaplease 2 роки тому +1

    What are your thoughts of using your toe stop to slow down? I do it primarily on trail skates to control speed, or to gradually slow down to transition because it’s comfortable for me but I’ve been really really harshly fingers wagged at for doing it. Bad enough that it makes me feel bad

    • @Skatie
      @Skatie  2 роки тому

      Stopping using a toe stop is fine. As long as your toe is turned out and not dragged behind with your knee pointing down. It will wear your toe stop down quite quickly outside.

    • @Skatie
      @Skatie  10 місяців тому +1

      The plow stop is a pretty effective way of stopping. However if you’re going really fast it can turn into more a chop stop where you use the same technique but each foot is lifted in a forwards stepping motion. I’ve just filmed a video on emergency stops where I explain this stop it should be live in a couple of weeks.

    I always found the outer two wheels was safer because it bumps about less

    • @Skatie
      @Skatie  Рік тому

      I find I keep the weight quite evenly spread between all the wheels but slightly more to the inner two wheels. I find it harder to target the outer two.

    I’m 13 and self taught I have been skating since I was 6 but over the year I have learn some things but not has much as I would want I am going to start my first class EVER next semester and honestly I’m scared bc I feel embarrassed to say ya I’ve been skating since I was 6 much so very very few thing I think in total I know how to go forward backwards forward bubbles backwards bubbles and SOMETIMES I can jump and land a manage to not have my feet slip from under me and fall not to mention I taught myself in a small semi house I’m used to stoping myself with walls when I go one direction and stopping normally in the other since I’m mostly skating in a line back and forth and then turning to switch directions all this to say I’m really nervous and if you have any tips it please let me know

      Sounds like you’ve got the basics down. I expect you’ll get on fab at your lesson. In fact, you’ll probably be able to do a lot more than you think! Most importantly, have fun 🛼⭐️💕

    Does using your wheels to stop wear them down?

    • @Skatie
      @Skatie  Рік тому

      It does a little bit they’re much harder than the toe stops so should wear down slower. It also a good idea to move the wheels around if you start to see uneven wear

    Stopping 🚫 obstacle #1 I have the hardest time learning proper stops.

    • @Skatie
      @Skatie  Рік тому

      It can be tricky as a lot of stops require one leg balance. Try to work through some balancing exercises too. That will help xx
