    Joey, this ‘Casual Clinic’ is a game-changer! I’m 60 years old and recently got into inline skating, and your approach to making it more fun while teaching essential techniques for speed is incredibly motivating. The way you break down each step makes it accessible for skaters at any level. It’s clear that you’re not just about going fast, but about enjoying the journey and improving with every session. Thanks for sharing your expertise and passion-it’s inspiring to see someone of your caliber making skating so approachable!

    I speed skate competitively in my 20s and Joey Mantia was my inspiration. Stopped for many years, took up other sports, 40 this year and am back into speed skating after been wizarding for a year. Watching Joey makes me feel young again haha

    As an adult trying to learn inline speed skating, these videos are extremely helpful! I love the way you explain moving the entire body and how to create pressure by leaning. It took a lot of times hearing that from different videos, but slowly I am starting to feel what you are saying when I am practicing.

      I was in your shoes 4 years ago, starting in my fifties, after a life time of rollerblading and hockey. Putting on lowcut speed skates for the first time was a shocker but now I'm on my 4th organized marathon and just absolutely love it...keep at it!

    Hey Joey, just wanted to tell you that while there is definitely times where having a dedicated camera operator there is awesome - You do a damned good job of it on your own, and there are tons of us that appreciate you doing it like this :)

    Oh and I'd love more on the weight transfer and how it'd look/feel on skates. Most seem to talk about it while doing offskate and fail to show it on the skates, I feel like this is the most important bit to understand before even trying to double push.

  • @paul_k_7351
    @paul_k_7351 3 місяці тому +4

    Great clinic. Since you mention double push & radius it would be interesting to see a comparison of what the double push looks like on various wheel sizes from 80mm up to 125mm 😛 (and on urban skates rather than speed skates if possible!👍)

    I think the filming is fine as it is. Impressive to be able to improvise over such a long period, while skating, and remain clear and coherent. I think demonstrations of the differences between the different ways of doing things are a really good way to get your point across.

    Hi Joey. Your explanations help me a lot to understand our sport better. Could you make a tutorial about the differences between skating with 4x110 mm or 3x125 mm? I am referring to technical and muscular differences. Thank you very much for your videos and greetings from the Basque Country.

    Perfect video, 58yr old new to inline speed struggling to get speed and losing motivation. Suddenly this video appears and I can’t wait to get back on the skates. Lifesaver. Thank you.

    Another thing is, when i use my speed skates, I am like "Bambi on ice"..... very wobbly ankles. Doing some dryland exercises to get stronger ankles and legs (thanks again for your uploads)

    Thank you for the video, nice format! Do it moar! 😜The thing about hips up and down is so insightful! I guess, I do it wrong😆Thank's a lot, it's very helpful! I'll try your suggestions on a track!

  • @adam_speed_skater
    @adam_speed_skater 3 місяці тому

    Thanks Joey! This is a mistake I often make myself. I am now aware of it. However, sometimes I get overly enthusiastic while riding. Then I forget about technique when I want to overtake a few more cyclists.

    amazing. thanks for this lesson. I feel like I have a world class coach for free. Keep em coming. I recently just got 110 wheels for my long distance. and what I am struggling with is knowing how that feeling of a double push feels like

  • @AdamPrzezak
    @AdamPrzezak 3 місяці тому

    We come here for the content, not the pretty views, I guess, and the content is great. You explained the differences very well, it was very helpful for me. I watched a "million" videos about double push and for the first time I realized that moving your hips up and down is not the way to do it. Thank You. And as for the video quality, I didn't miss anything.

    Funny I was just out with the Seattle Distance Skate group yesterday, and one of the more experienced guys noted that its harder to get speed because I am on rockered skates (4 90s). I never really thought about it like that. Then right on que Joey M comes out with a video talking about rockered frames. I think all this advice definitely applies to me as make so many of those mistakes like the up and down and the extra movement but have also been getting better.

  • @EricGonzalo
    @EricGonzalo 3 місяці тому

    What perfect timing, I visited a Velodrome yesterday and had opportunity to mindfully focus on the side-to-side stride movement (vs the up and down of the hips). Will keep this in mind as I continue to drill and practice my stride!

    Enjoyed it. Please add something about upper body movement (for speedskates) as well. I find it way too easy to rotate my upper body away from the end of a push, but can't understand why I shouldn't do it. Makes my push feel more powerful, but I do add the rotation that needs to be stopped somewhere..

    I don't skate anywhere near as much as I'd like, but seeing these videos keeps me motivated and helps me go out and. I'm a total novice at the moment, but I hope I'll be able to progress with this advice.

I am used to urban skating and slalom but I know how to push and utilize my inside and outside edge. I wanted to do more speed skating but don’t know which skate to get. Anu suggestions or idea? Subcribed to you. Looking forward to more of this 👏

    Very nice content :) In fact, that kind of video has a lot of valuable tips and is less time-consuming than beautiful content ;) I like that kind of video with simple tips. I'll try to speed up my inline skating. My barrier is 27km/h for now to save energy. But if I'm watching how easy it is to skate 30-35km/h for you, I want to be faster also :) I started from 15km/h, and thanks to you and Victor, I'm faster and faster. Good job!
