watched this all the way through. rollerbladers love seeing beginners
ayy I appreciate you a ton! I'm loving it so far
Ye, so fun to watch people start and learn :)
nice job man!! great progress and great video! Keep it up!
Brooo didn't expect to see you here!! Ive been watching your content since getting into this, so sick to see the process of you getting tricks at street spots. I'm over here just trying to survive landing fakie 😅 loving the process though!!
nice one, my dude. Always good to see folks getting into blading. Keep it up. Looking forward to seeing the progress.
its really addicting, its kinda taken over all my hobbies lol
love to see it!
Welcome to one of the best communities you can find 🤟🏾 from one flat skater to another, remember to get LOW 😂
Getting low is a struggle for me I need to get more flexible
As an older guy who is just learning aggressive skating, I also went with the Aeon 60s too because of how stable and they are and the really thick shock absorber that is easier my knees. Nice job!
Dude u makin' GREAT Progress! Big Up to you!
appreciate it bro!! I'm still out here learning, feeling real good doing frontside but struggling with committing to soul tricks
Seeing you get so excited made me so happy and also made me remember when I first started 20 years ago. Great stuff, keep at it!
It's such a good feeling
Been skating my whole life. Keep it up!
I'll take all the tips I can get!
Wow you did awesome. Really impressive growth and you look much more natural than me at jumping. I've started skating a few months ago at 37, mostly on flat ground, I wanted to get more proficient at actually skating before I went to the park.
After rolling up and down the quarter forwards and backwards, I hit up a miniramp and tried to stay at the bottom and pump my way to the top before I try drop in. That ramp really broke me, and just pumping forwards and backwards was really hard work and requires a huge amount of concentration. It wasn't as smooth transition as the one in your video, even though it was a 3.5ft ramp. After getting to the point where I could touch my wheels on the coping I ended up falling straight down on my tailbone and whipping my neck. My advice is to stop before you get really tired! It required a lot more work than I expected, I assumed it was just rolling up and down but I was sore EVERYWHERE for days afterwards, not just from falling but every muscle. I definitely couldn't have done it consecutive days like you did, even being reasonably fit.
Keep it up
yeah my sessions were not too long because I realized how exhausting it was on my body, I cycled 150 miles a week all summer for cardio and even still my heart rate averages like 168 while rollerblading lol ( I have a polar heart rate monitor strap and garmin watch I use to record everything) It really surprised me how intense learning how to do stuff is. I was reasonably comfortable while just riding around and jumping but like you said, once I got to the skatepark it took so much concentration and balance to not fall every single time I got near a ramp... super humbling experience. While I really want to learn how to skate ramps better I think I'm gonna wait until it warmer and I'm more motivated to slam into the ground over and over again lol
right now if you've seen my latest videos Ive been really addicted to learning grinds, I've got the frontside grind down pretty okay on my metal rail but I am still struggling to commit to soul plate tricks.
I've taken some massive slams as well and somehow haven't gotten injured? I carry a ton of muscle now so I think that contributes to it, because I honestly use to get injured more as a kid skateboarding and taking slams. I was just like 40lbs less muscle and out of shape completely lol I am 31 now but I'm in some of the best shape of my life so I'm trying to take advantage of it before its too late. Mountain biking is another one of my passions that I plan to step up alot this year
Good stuff!! Aggressive inline rocks 🤘
Nooo waaay I didn't expect you to see this video 😅 I've been loving your content. Maybe one day I'll be doing sick switch ups like you!!!
Late starter here too. Really impressive amount of progress for just 7 days of work man! Just keep at it. Some grinds come more naturally than others. I've been trying to get Royales down for months and still can't figure them out.
Yeah I may have rushed the progress a little bit for the video, been going back to basics and focusing on fundamentals off camera. Really getting comfortable with frontside grinds though! Since I've moved onto new skates that fit me better it's really helped me overall. Just wish it was 35 degrees everyday or raining/snowing lol can't wait for spring
As someone who skated when I was 15 ish then stopped and picked it up again around 25 ish then stopped and again at 33 picked it up. I SALUTE YOU MY FRIEND. Jumping on Prails and going slow into grinds will MESS YOU UP lol. This vid had alot of great info and tips for those looking to start out. P RAILS ARE DEATH and can be the lower they are/the slow you try to do a trick lol. I learned the hard way trying to stall grind to get a feel for tricks before actually committing to a trick lol. Keep "grinding" man and enjoy it the blade community can be one of the best out there!!!!! 11/10 supportive as HECK.
Ayyy I appreciate this a ton!!! I'm getting super addicted to blading so it's cool seeing the community show so much support. I've definitely taken a few hard falls lol I even fell directly on my metal p rail the other day and that was not very pleasant lmao now if only I could commit to jumping onto a soul grind
@@inlineonline RIGHT lol falling on the rail is always a killer or when you smack your shin on something lol. Maybe try a mizou its like a soul grind except your left foot would go behind you kinda like a L shape if that makes sense lol.
Awesome video! you're doing great!!
Your just send it attitude is inspiring. Took me a month or two after coming back to skating to get the balls to drop in. Keep it up brother!
I got my pads on for a reason!!! I try to remind myself I'm not doing this to "be safe" but at least I'm minimizing the damage. I haven't done it since though haha I need to get back to learning how to skate ramps, Ive been obsessed with grinding
im 32 and just started 3 weeks ago lol we got this!
lets goo!! the progression is addicting, reminds me of when I started mountain biking
@inlineonline for real! I've skateboard for over 20 years and always wanted to try blading but never invested till a few weeks ago. I also mountain bike! Pretty much anything with wheels lol
@@TA_OUTDOORZ same bro I wish I got into all this stuff way earlier, I skated when I was younger but never did anything more than an Ollie. It's so hard 😅
@@inlineonline lol i got pretty good only because of the people i skated with. they always pushed me to be better. ive always had this feeling that blading was something id be ok at and i wish i started it sooner too lol atleast for now i still bounce when i fall lol
@@TA_OUTDOORZ yeah honestly I've been surprised how well I've been able to fall, skateboarding kinda prepares you to roll out of things. but on these blades we can't really "run out" of tricks like we did on skateboards. If I miss I'm hitting the ground for sure lol
More of these videos!
From a beginner to another, turning is the best method to break, just do a 180. Most advanced guys to that. I don't know how much time you had but on the first day maybe more basic maneuvers. Rolling fast, turning, 180, jumping.
For the grinds more stalls. H block grinds are advanced, more makios and souls. You did it with the frontside at least. Outside of that, more speed. Even if your technique is not on point you'll slide far and won't have to worry about balance because you spend less time on the obstacle. Far more speed and height actually helps, less bending required.
love this man! doing great, speed is your friend. keep it up!
Got a new rail recently that slides way better too, it's scarier but feels great. This PVC pipe I used was sitting in my garage for years and it's slides soooo slow compared to my metal rail, really glad I upgraded
I might buy a metal pipe to replace the PVC on my prail too
metal slides great but does get slow eventually, keep your weight above the rail, keep a nice bit of speed & you will be blasting topsouls with the best of them soon enough! cant wait to see more! @@inlineonline
@@ZenSkates hopefully you're right!!! I'm loving it so far
Rhode Island!
Wish we had better parks 😭😭😭
Nice work 🔥🔥
Killed it brother love to see it
U rock ;)! U will love to blade, have the best freinds now and i'm 35 - learned much in two years allready now
man I wish I had some friends who bladed, I have been bugging all my friends to try it but they have zero interest lol
@@inlineonlinefound them because of blading - u will meet many cool people 💪
What city do you live in? There has to be some blade fam in your area that would be down to chill and help you out. Keep it up man. There is nothing like dropping in for the first time! Here’s to many more milestones and that exhilarating feeling of accomplishment that comes from them!
It took me at least 2 months or more since I started to drop in... Awesome progress you got balls dude
I've done it on a skateboard! And I was in full pads so I figured I'm here, I'm making the video, let's just go for it 😅 barely made it out alive but honestly the camera is pretty motivating and it's why I film alot of my hobbies. It's fun to watch back and motivating in the moment
Love it! In the state I grew up in aswell 👌🏻 Keep it up dude hyped to see you stick with it. Lots of bladers in RI
Is there a park where most of the bladers go? I'd love to actually meet some local bladers, all my friends who bladed when we were young unfortunately don't anymore
Nice. Yeah, a couple tricks names come from Japanese. Makio (Ma-key-oh) is named after a skater who was first known to do them, Makio Miyazaki (宮崎眞希夫). Mizu (Me-zoo) comes from the Japanese word for water, 水(みず). Happy learning.
thats super cool!!! never knew that
Awesome! Keep at it!
I will!!!
That was a great watch. Keep going
I appreciate that! wish I could go back and level the audio better but oh well! and I've gotten addicted to blading so its not going anywhere soon!
Good job man!
Thank you!!
Man this was incredibly fun to watch! Super Awesome video!
I wanna give advice but all I'll say is just keep having fun with the learning process!! 🤟🏾🤟🏾🤟🏾
I appreciate you bro!! I'll take all the advice I can get through, I'm still skating every chance I get
I’m so glad I came across your channel. This video is brilliant, I can’t believe how brave you are. I started back in December but decided I prefer quad skates to inlines as I’ve always used quads at rinks. I tried inlines at the park but didn’t feel confident at all. I’ve only dropped in once holding onto a friend’s arm while he dropped in with me. I did it the first time, fell on my ass the 2nd and managed to stay upright the 3rd time. I want to do it on my own but it’s scary.
Thats awesome!!! Ive seen some people rip it up on quad skates, doing all types of crazy grinds and flat ground spins. Looks like so much fun, very flowly. I need to spend more time at the rink to be honest, just to become a better skater. Glad you liked the video though!!!
and honestly its been 2 months and I haven't dropped back in on that ramp, I've done a bunch of much smaller ones but dropping in is still so scary lol its all about commitment though. WE just have remember that we already did it!! We CAN do it again just have to push the fear back.
Now I think I only fall when I let the fear get to me, but when I tell myself "if you fall you will be fine" then I can do it easyyyy. As long as you have pads you'll be fine!
@@inlineonline I’m scared of falling but when I have fell over I’ve been fine because I wear all the protective gear. I know what you mean about commitment, I think if you chicken out half way through then that’s what’s going to get you in trouble.
Great Video!!🔥🔥
thank you!!! Ive watched tons of your videos haha
@@inlineonline wow, thanks!! 😁 I'm going to watch all your videos in the next few days too
Great stuff man! When riding fakie (backwards) put one of your feet in front of the other. Also, turn your head to the side where your lead foot is so you can see where you're going.
I'm gonna spend multiple sessions working on riding backwards when my new big wheel skates come in, right now I'm on the 5th element in anti rocker and it's sooo rough lol I need more practice on some urban skates. That staggered foot position is something I need to make a habit now instead of later lol
AND youre learning all this with a gopro in your hands i HIGHLY SALUTE YOU lol once you waxed it LOL hang on but you got it LIKE YOU said JUST COMMIT lol. 11/10 keep rolling
Lmao yeah idk what I was thinking trying to grind with no wax but eventually I figured it out haha
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
GG my guy … saw a vid yesterday where a guy uses the P rail and a chair just to build muscle memory and balance for all the grinds
I need the video! Or how was the chair positioned? I am starting grind on a prail too
Not true about skating backward, just point toe inward and push left and right. When skating forward you would like to point toe outward and do the same, never try to push backward/forward.
You would like to lean towards the direction you are going. When going backwards, bend your knees and lean with your butt towards the direction like you going to take a seat.
I go aggressive when I was 34 now I’m 35, it takes time to pick up but it’s fun.
With own progress/schedule in self mind and pushing through challenges, it certainly works better. Don’t give up.👍🏻
I'm getting some big wheel skates to spend more time working on that!! I ended up returning the aeons and now I only have anti rocker/freestyle frames which are not super pleasant to skate around with lol even my driveway is a bit too rough for the small wheels
an important concept that doesnt get explained enough is the nomenclature of grinds, and how you come off them. technically all of the frontsides you did ended in the "farside" position which is where you jump away from the side you jumped on from. bladers generally prefer the look of landing back on the same side you jumped on from, just so you know what most people consider to be "correct" :). watch some of the jumbo tutorial+ videos for some really in depth better explanations on concepts like these that can help you get better even faster. love the content and hope you keep it up with inlining man.
also makio grinds are the grandfather grind. learn the makio before everything else because makio grinds are a requirement to learning any other soul style grinds since you do half of a makio everytime you use your soulfoot.
ill check out those tutorials for sure!! Ive been able to jump back on the correctly side with my freestyle frames but for some reason with these roces street frames I feel so unstable and I tilt forward so much. With the kizer x freestyle frames I felt much deeper in the frontside and was able to push off and jump back on the same side a few time.
And you're right I need to focus on the makio, I can step on a makio and grind it very easily but I still can't jump on them while moving. Stalling is fine though. Learning to jump on the makio while moving is probably my missing piece! I appreciate all the advice it means alot.
I also have a pair for big wheel skates coming in just to get more time skating around, the anti rocker setup is sooo slow and harsh on my local pavement. Even my skateparks are rough lol
if you check out my more recent videos I've made some good progress! I ride roces now as well
Dduuudddee okay this is a sign to get Rollerblades
Do itttt bro it's actually semi cheap when you compare it to other hobbies, easy to pull the trigger and buy a pair. 200 bucks will get you amazing blades
@@inlineonline I'm selling some crocheted goods so I'm predicting by Valentine's I'll buy a pair
@@ldoubleprime1654 hell yeah!! Consider joining the blade trade Facebook group they have tons of create deals. Surprising how strong the inline community is on facebook 😅 it's the only reason I use it
@@inlineonline I don't use Facebook but I think I will now lol
@@ldoubleprime1654 look up the group "rollerblading rollerblading" its the biggest discussion based inline skating group on the internet I'm pretty sure. I see pro bladers in there just casually talking and even giving me tips lol wild!
crazy progression xD i skate longer and cant even do the things ur doing >.< now i feel like a chicken
Don't get down on yourself! I took a lot of big slams and tried to rush to learn as much as possible inside 7 days
@@inlineonline well great job :)
@@FluffyAmyNL thank you!!
As I started this video I saw we had a lot of similarities: used to skateboard, now trying to pick up inline for the first time in our thirties... But it got weird when I realized i was at that same skatepark a few days ago trying to learn soul grinds! =O I grew up in Colorado but I'm in RI now and yeah, the skateparks here are... Not great. Have you found any good ones?
The good ones are all near providence it seems, like the neutaconkanut skatepark just got a massive new addition and it looks sick... But someone just got shot at the entrance of that park lmao so many not the best place to go. Tiverton skatepark is super well made but it's missing some basics like a basic rail and ledge lol
Barrington and Newport are building new skateparks, the one in Newport is going to be massive. I've never been scared of a skatepark but being on blades I feel a little bit more vulnerable. Would be a nightmare to fight on blades 😭😭
dylan brady at the end?
Wow how did you recognize that hahah it's a Dylan Brady song that I sampled on my sp404. Such a sick baseline
YOU SUCK 😂😂😂😂
Lmao jk. Good video! I’ve always been scared to even attempt grinds
How did u teach urself all this in 2 days when i’m slamming into fences to stop at the end of week one 🤣
firstly thank youu!!! I went out every single day so I think progress tends to amplify when you go back to back to back
I did spend time as a young kid going to rental skate rinks with my summer camp. So I pretty much already knew how to roll, my whole first day was really just learning how to stop and I kept working on stopping every single day!!
I noticed that having confidence to stop is such a big deal, once you get that down you'll feel so much better and everything else comes natural, you got thisss!! I know it can be really boring to spend a whole hour just practicing how to stop but once you know you know!
@@inlineonline ahhh okay. thanks for the tips!
Yo I just move RI.! Let me know if you need someone to blade!
hell yeah thats awesome, don't see many bladers around here but I know theres some. What skatepark do you go to??
when u gonna update us with a handrail???lolol
Lmao Im not ready yet, but if you check the latest videos I know a bunch of different grinds now
Hell yeah brother that's awesome. I'm kinda in the same boat as you. I just started skating again after 20 years and I'll be the first to tell you it wasn't like riding a bike. I took a week of just rolling around and getting used to my new skates before I went to the local skatepark. I'm starting to get all my old grinds back. The other day I did a buttery top Acid. Felt Soo good!! Keep skating! It's keeping us young lol
@@chinobean3555 bro that's awesome topside grinds seem impossible for me right now
