Hi. Thanks for the video. I used to skate very well as a kid and young teens. Stopped due to no rinks near me for well over 35 years. Now I am 50, live by a rink and am getting back into it. Word of advice for those who may have this option, like you do in that garage. Buy some furniture lifting straps at Home depot and sling them over a beam overhead or install a hook in the garage ceiling. Hang onto the straps while you are learning this stuff. This will help prevent some nasty falls while learning and help you build your balance.
@@ianlarue4985 I mean for doing this particular movement; can you move faster? Is it more stable? What's the advantage of using one type of skate over the other?
This is excellent. I really appreciate tutorials (especially good ones like this) but I can never grasp the moves because my brain cant process this in mirror image to work out what I need to do. So even though I'm really solid on skates, I can never progress watching these :( Would you ever consider filming from behind--like your 'trucking' tute? Thanks regardless. We are lucky to have awesome people likeyou now, generously sharing your skills and fun with us.
Thank you. I've been skating since I was 8, now 41. Mainly a speed skater that can do a little jam skating, your channel is helping me get better m much love! 💜
What are your favorite wheels for outdoor skate dancing? I have moxi gummies and they are too sticky and big to get a good movement in, but I am affraid if i go to hard or small, they will not cope with rough surfaces.
I'm wondering, is there any literature or videos you'd recommend? A casual search shows very little outside of one slalom book and some aggressive inline videos. You seek to have a very well rounded approach and I assume you might have already done something like this. As in, you might already have gone through various other disciplines (hockey, ice skating, slalom, aggressive etc).
Crim That is an excellent question. You are correct. I have spent years learning many disciplines on many skates. My current undertaking (before the virus hit) is figure skating. If you seek to understand how the physics of proper skating technique works, the best piece of literature I can point you to is a book called “Power Skating” by Laura Stamm. Stamm was a figure skating who got commissioned to teach skating to ice hockey players. She developed a teaching system that was so effective that it landed her a place coaching NHL players privately during a time when it was taboo for women to coach men in hockey. I had been skating for 20 years when I read this book, and the knowledge in it was so profound to me that within a year I had doubled my skill level, and continued to grow at a much faster rate than I ever did before that. If you read this book and then watch my videos, you will see that a great deal of my understanding came from this book. It is important to remember that every type of skating has at least slightly different rules, so you cannot apply Power Skating technique EXACTLY to jam skating or other styles, but like I said, it is an excellent tool to learn a general under of the rules and physics involved in skating in general.
@@DeezSkates Thanks. I saw your review on Amazon. I'm just coordinating something regarding my family's Amazon account and then I'll make my purchase. Anything else you'd suggest? I have a strength training background. I'm trying to treat my skating practice the same way I do my strength training. Organized, training that begins with general exposure and becomes more specific over time. One that revolves around making incremental jumps in difficulty. But that's hard for me because I have no concept of “progressive overload” as far as skating goes. One more Q. I recently saw something that looks like a board with a slot in it. I saw people doing isometric holds with skates to practice holding a position. Any idea what those are called and if they're useful?
That’s a tough one. JB skating typically involves quite a bit of sliding, so you would probably want something hard in the 100a range, but it depends on your style and the exact surface. I personally like a good transfer of power so I skate with pretty sticky wheels.
@@DeezSkates I see. Ya I haven't been able to test out my new wheels. I recent bought some Chaya classics and they came with the 78a which I find sticky even on my basement floor. I think rentals hardness is higher than 78a so I may go to that hardness + a few points
The wheels I used in this video are 85a Poison Savant hybrids. I use them indoor and outdoor. If the rink floor is PERFECTLY KEPT with a good gloss coat I will go up to 95-97a, but otherwise, I stick with this range.
All the people I’ve seen teaching jam skating moved are more focused on them releasing content than actual skating, this actually helping me learn how to get one in a few minutes by explaining more in depth and doing it longer, thanks!
Epilepsy warning needed. Thanks for this. I’ve been looking for a while.
If you have Epilepsy!? Make sure to smoke a whole Backwood or pop a Xanax or both before you do this y'all!!!😌😌😌😌😌
What kind of clear selfie stick and gimbal are you using?
Thanks for putting these instructional videos out!
Simple step by step! thanks totally made sense. Will try it

Omg I love how you stress take your time respect where you are!
wherein I discover the only "move" i naturally do is actually a move, neat
Now that I have set up my enclosed space skate arena, ima gave to set my mind to trying these things.
Awesome training video! Easy to follow and simple instruction to understand. Thank you for sharing. Please keep making more videos on skate dancing.
I just found your tutorials and I'm a fan. I'm currently in inline skates, but I'm gonna try to learn some of these jam skate moves nonetheless :)
This was awesome, but the term "inside leg and outside leg" is rather confusing. Maybe I'm the only one
The first part or Your video hard to watch with your camera movie camera so fase
upgraded from abec 3's to 7s... wow
Please more of steps in times of confinement like this. thanks so much
Excellent!!! Thanks
Is there a big advantage from using "jam skates" as opposed to rhythm sates?
1 is for rhythm and 1 is for jam this is jam son

Did the crazy video ever come out ?

What was that lil spin u threw in there I need it

Thank you! What a great video you have made it so digestible and simple thanks for breaking it down
Hope you're doing well amidst this pandemic. Are you able to skate outside at all where you're at?
Thank you so much for your contribution to the skating community your videos are awe inspiring
What type of skate do I need to get for this style of skating
Indoor or indoor outdoor quad skates
Ur back doing tuts?
I'm wondering, is there any literature or videos you'd recommend? A casual search shows very little outside of one slalom book and some aggressive inline videos.

Hey Deez what hardness would you recommend for JB skating on smooth concrete or wood floors
That’s a tough one. JB skating typically involves quite a bit of sliding, so you would probably want something hard in the 100a range, but it depends on your style and the exact surface. I personally like a good transfer of power so I skate with pretty sticky wheels.

Hey
Can you do this in inline skates as well??
Yup
