  • The PowerStop is the most potent and difficult stop in Inline Skating. Bill Stoppard (me) will coach you to crack this stop inside, to the point where you're ready to bust it out when you once again, hit the streets. Aeon 80 Skates from www.inlineware...

    BILL, I JUST LEARNT TO POWER STOP IN 2 MINS! The back foot awareness was the key for me, everything else just fell into place- as you said it would. Spent another 5 mins practicing inside before taking it out to the tar and the inside training translates very well when taken outside. I've learnt to skate because of you. From Cape Town, South Africa- many thanks :)

    Nice! I've been stringing together some p-stop tips during my daily exercise allowance skate bouts. I totally agree - it's all about nailing that 1st foot. I always rate my power stops based how little energy is transferred to my 2nd foot. It tends to get all the credit however as it makes all the noise!

    I fell like the tips you shared here were the missing steps for me to get it, i can't wait to go and try it out.
    Sadly my apartment is a tad too small to try and do this on the inside, and I don't really fell comfortable going outside just to skate right now, but when I can i will drill it to kill it!

    It would be good, especially when making beginner tutorials, to incorporate slow motion sections in your vid. If not in the middle, put them at the end of your video, if you r scared that people will abandon watching the vid, beginners won't for sure.

    • @YSPDJapan
      @YSPDJapan 4 роки тому

      As somebody who started on RB 84's and is thinking of buying a pair of RB 110's, just go to a smooth location and practice drag(T) stops. Since those don't come with a rear brake, you have to get that down first.
      Once you get that down, you can slow down from any speed to something that you're comfortable with power stopping.
      I went and bought some cheap 76 mm, 86A wheels from amazon to learn to power stop. But before that, I would stop by just going into a super sharp spin that mimics the rotation of a power stop but I would just keep spinning about 270 degrees, then stop.
      You could do that first. Just work your way up to the fastest you can go from straight into a rotation to stop.
      Then, when you go to the power stop, you focus on keeping that pivot leg like Bill's but you put a lot of pressure on the outside foot as soon as it reaches parallel to your inside foot. If you angle it too much the foot will slide a foot or so.
      I just went to an indoor garage and practiced this for 30 minutes and started getting the hang of it. An hour later I could repeatedly do it at low speeds.
      So now, my practice sessions are a quick 5 minute warmup then practice T stops into a power stop.

      I think 100 would be the best if your are looking for bigger size.
      110 and 125 is difficult due to the high speed. I switched from 84, to 80, 84 to 90 to 110.
      84 is easy to learn but hard to fight against the urban hurdles... (Depending on which city you are living in)
      76-80 is a bit slow to me if you have to drive up a hill it's far easier to just walk. (I'm really not a aggressive skater)
      90 fast, you can drive urban but 4x90 lacks on mobility.
      Thats why I took 3x110 I love the speed the mobility is about the same than 4x90. But it's getting extremely hard to control them downhill.
      I think my sweet spot would have been 3x100.

    Hi Bill, I wonder if you would consider doing a vid on wheels, I have seen you using 85a to 90a, I would love to know your thoughts on longest wearing and whether the harder wheels are worth the compromise on grip. I would just try myself but it's an expensive experiment if the 90a are not worth it. Also your thoughts on rockering may be valuable to people unsure on what skates to get, I started on full rockered after the skate shop advised them, but have just bought flats as I keep getting wheel wobbles at speed. Just some thoughts, keep up the great vids, you have been hugely inspirational and informative.

    Good explanation. When i watched other video guides i was thinking that another foot is important so i tried to learn powerstop by kinda riding around left foot and didn't have any control over my stop. Will try it tomorrow, i felt enough times for today, need some rest.
    And i have a question for people (mostly Polish, because i see this kind of bycycle roads everywhere). Is there a stopping technique that is not recommended on pavement blocks? I am just thinking if powerslide for example will not be interrupted by the gap between blocks and potentially lead to injury?

      My understanding is that magic slide is entirely surface dependent.

    Thank you for the video! Could you briefly emphasize the text in the video or in the comments, what should you pay attention to when doing this braking? I don’t know English, so it’s not entirely clear from the video what I’m doing wrong. My rollers either stick into the asphalt and as a result - fall, or it turns me around.

    Nice one Bill, this was exactly what i was looking for. I just got myself some Powerslide Phuzion Krypton 100mm Trinity skates, inspired by your Flying Eagle skates. The wheels are 85A, are these ok for achieving this stop? ATB Marti

    If you want slide you’ve gotta get your leading skate way lower. Almost on the side of your skate. It’s all about sliding at speed. Watch Rollerblade GM diaries video series. Greg is really good at sliding at big speed on any surface. If you find a good shot of him doing one try and stop the frame. You’ll see he’s about as low as you could get your skate on the ground without the wheels coming off the ground. This is the reason he can side so far at speed and not lose it. The angle of attack is so low. Any higher and you will bite into the ground and trip yourself. This is okay at almost no forward speed. But it won’t help you if you’re going fast.
    How to learn this?
    Skate one one foot. Slide the other foot in a circle while staying really low and get that skate way leaned over and staring to slide way out in front. So get used to the point where the skate slides. You’ll see at speed it slides fairly easy.
    Oh... and one more thing... stay low.
    Thanks Bill.

      It is possible with higher angle, but you have to put more power in the leading skate (ramming it into the ground) for the same effect and some leg muscles to keep the skate sliding. Thats why it is a lot easier on smooth surfaces.
      Aggressive skates only allow a certain angle before the soulplate hits the ground and you slip out. So you fall everytime at high speed if you instinctiv choose a lower angle :-/

    Master, thank you for the lesson. I have a question not related to the subject, anyway, there you go: Many people use skateboards as a means of transportation. Skates could be the same if there were easy to put on and take off. Imagine you going to take a bus or subway and you need to seat to take off the skates and wear your shoes yet Nowere to sit, or going into a building, whatever place you need shoes. Is there any skates to wear over shoes, easy to put on and take off?

    Hi Bill, looking to get a rollerblade online. Should I go down a size small than my regular walking/every day shoe? Sidenote: I am a beginner. Some video ppl go down a size others say get your shoe size. Looking at the twister by rollerblade if that helps, thanks.

    So is this like a Lunge Turn--except you are getting on your edges more? The movement seems very similar to a lunge turn.

    I find myself doing almost complete 180 degree turns when doing this although it looks fancy and as if I do it on purpose I want to stop on a dime like how bill does, only been skating for about 3 hours tho lol I’m sure it’ll get sharper
