@@SkatefreshVideos They certainly look cool! But I’ve only learnt toe pivots _after_ I had learnt lions. The mechanics of both moves feel very different to me. Kicking your free leg around to get your body through the three-turn feels like quite something else as turning around a fixed point. Coolest thing, of course, is to string lions and toe pivots together in a nice combo, as Leon so often does. 😎

@@TheRollingRaptor Yes you are right, using the free leg in the air to help generate rotation for a lion is useful and changes how it feels. But for me if I train the toe pivot version it teaches me how far and how much I have to go back into the heel to scribe the cusp and turn. I'm still getting the feel for those and now it's a bit different with the Endless so I'm going back to basics, well certainly in this Day 1 video I did. I need more lion training time especially the back inside one.

Hi, Looks nice! One question: In which frame did your Wizard moves feel better: In the NN or in the endless frame? Greetings

Although I only started in September, I've calculated very roughly that since that initial month of justing practicing on the carpet and kitchen through to now including no skating for whole of february and taking into account harsh winter weather, I've probably only skated 80 hours. If you said 80 hours to 6 months you might have different expectation of level of the latter to the former length of time if you know what i mean

Super geil

🥰

It looks like you've tried both the Endless and NN 4x90. Which do you prefer and why? I have the NN 4x90 and thinking of possibly getting the Endless version. Thanks Asha! As always, your skating is so graceful and powerful.

@SkatefreshVideos

Жыл бұрын

I like them both. There is only one difference between them really. The NNs have 2mm lift on the heel and 1mm lift on the toe. The Endless have 1mm lift on the heel and 1mm lift on the toe. So I find the NNs a tiny bit easier for any of the backward transitions (gazelles, cheetahs or lions) which need weight going into the heels, as that rocking moment is facilitated by the slightly higher heel lift. But really they are very very similar and splitting hairs in this way is tricky for me as I can do the same backward transitions in the Endless no probs. The differences are very small in my opinion.

The Endless are 1mm up on the front and back wheels. Very slight but very smooth. Loving them.

Question about drift: If your one foot glide is drifting to the outside, which way to you adjust the frame? For example, your left foot drifting to the left…did you move the frame 1mm to the inside or outside? Did you shift just the toe mounting over, or also the heel?

@SkatefreshVideos

2 жыл бұрын

And here's the question of questions when it comes to frame adjusting. Firstly the glide drift can happen due to several reasons and not just because the frame isn't aligned, so moving the frame may not fix the cause in some cases. Having weight on the heel of the drifting foot can make it drift as the lighter toe 'decides' to go its own way..... so check that first. Left foot drifting left (as mine was) I couldn't;t move the toe of my trireme towards the inside as I wanted because it doesn't move sideways (only forwards and backwards). But by pivoting the left heel outwards, this pushes to left heel inwards, by just a tiny amount. 1mm can be a lot sometimes! Does this make sense? I've got the Trish mounting system.

Hi Asha, thank you for all your great videos. I am 5 foot, 2 inches, I live in America so sorry for the conversion. I am trying to transition to a rocker frame with your exact set up four by 90, FRs with a intuition liner. Do you think at my height I will have trouble maneuvering as you do with street skating? Basically, my skill level is high intermediate but my main interest is urban street skating with the ability to make very sharp turns and go at high speeds on trails around town. I really want to learn to wizards skate and slalom a bit. Any recommendation would help as I don’t know many skaters in my city and I also want the best fit. Currently, I skate flat on four by 80s, rollerblade twisters.

Hi. This is Sergio from Team Skatefresh. I believe you'll be fine with 4x90. Frames made for wizard skating (NN, Endless, Iqon, etc.) have a high maneuverability and keep the speed because the rockering is very light; not like the ones made for slalom, that have a more pronounced difference between outer wheels and inner wheels. At the beginning you will probably feel weird with larger wheels especially while stopping but the difference from 4x80 to 4x90 is not that much so after a couple sessions everything will feel comfortable again.

Great Asha!!! Did you feel any difference with respect to the NN??

@SkatefreshVideos

2 жыл бұрын

So far mainly all I felt was more stability when going faster, so the rocker feels little less than the NN rocker. I didn't do a full wizard skating session yet, so it's hard to tell right now. Both skates offer a really good combination of manoeuvrability and suitability for street skating or other things. I'll be keeping these on for some weeks so we'll see how it goes.

@SkatefreshVideos

Жыл бұрын

Hi. This is Sergio from Skatefresh Team. These frames are targeted to people who want to do tricks. The frame doesn't work by itself, you need to know how to perform the trick no matter what frame you have. The frame just helps. Therefore, beginners will not get much benefits.

Hello Asha, super video! May I ask how big your foot is? Don't you have a problem, don't you feel this 276 mm endless frame with 90 mm wheels too long coming from a 243 mm frame? I'm considering buying this frame or the LR version, but to be honest I'm not sure it will be the right one for me. I've got a 263 mm foot and I'm using a Trinity 4x80 setup currently. Once I had a 165 mm mount 4x90 mm flat setup and it was a real nightmare...I clipped my wheels several times doing crossovers and doing toe spins was really hard, because I had to go with my ankle/foot in a much steeper position to be able to reach the first wheel's turning/gravity center. It was 10 years ago but I can still remember this uncomfortable and insecure feeling this 4x90 setup "gifted" me... :/

Yes it's tricky.... but the rocker does help to make the frame feel shorter as only 3 wheels touching most of the time if you are weighting correctly front or back depending on the move/skill. I'm afraid I have so little experience of multiple skates and frames. I literally have one pair for several years and barely have experimented with anything. Im not an equipment geek at all. I have small feet for my height, Size UK6, USA7, EU40.

That's my size of foot! They both work. It just depends if you want more speed or if you street skate a lot on rougher surfaces then 90s could serve you better. But if you want more fitness and agility then 84 might work better. It's always a balance of what kinds of skating you like doing. Hope this helps.

Hi beautiful! I'm changing from 4x90 to 4x84 wheels. Do you think 4x84 is a better size for wizard skating?

Small in general is more agile and manoeuvrable but Ive never gone lower than 80s so I can't say from experience. Technique however is the most important factor for wizard skating (not equipment). I hate to say it but getting a wizard frame with a rocker won't automatically make those gazelles and lions happen. You still need to do the right thing technically to move the skates how you need to. I've been really getting into the physics of it recently with learning myself and writing an online course. I'm loving it.

Hi Stefani. I agree with Asha in that in general smaller wheels will be more agile and maneuverable. However, it depends on whether you are simply putting smaller wheels on an existing frame or switching to a frame with a smaller wheelbase as well. There’s a difference. In general I recommend that wheelbase length be chosen according to the foot size. This will affect where the pivot points sit relative to the anatomy of your foot. This can affect the “tempo” of your moves. I have a 270 mm foot in a size 40 FR1 shell and the mechanics of skating 4x90 on my Endless 90 ES frame (291 mm wheelbase) feels much different than skating 4x90 on my regular Endless 90 frame (276 mm wheelbase). The tempo is faster on the shorter wheelbase. When you simply go to a smaller wheel size on the same frame the pivot point location remains the same, but the pivots feel more defined and precise. This is because a smaller wheel has a smaller footprint on the ground. It’s an illuminating experience to try skating 80 mm wheels on a 4x100 frame (303 mm wheelbase). Or if you have a 4x90 frame try putting 76 mm wheels on it. The experience when doing twirly/spinning moves feels different. One final thing I’ll add is that I’d recommend that you choose a frame length that is at least slightly longer than your foot length if you aim to have a Wizard skating experience, and not just an artistic figure skating or slalom skating experience. Many of the moves that Leon Basin originated were on a 4x100 setup with a size 40 or 42 boot I believe. (My profile pic is size 40 with 4x100 for reference.) Have fun!

The Endless frames look good. What happened to the NN frames? I look forward to your wizard tutorials. Thank you.

@SkatefreshVideos

The last frame I was on, the NNs I didn't feel the rocker effect wearing off with wheel wear. I had them on for several months. I'll keep you updated with how these feel after being worn for weeks. The subtle rocker of these new frames is what is special and different. Rockers usually meant quite a noticeable shift in wheel height and suitable really only for slalom skaters. Those kind of older rockers mean that switching from tricks skating to street or faster skating was problematic because at speed the rocker was too severe and gave no stability. Now these new frames have a very subtle 1mm rocker which means that you have the added agility of a shorter frame for tuns and transitions but not a wobbly skate at speed. It's a great 'best of both worlds' scenario and think both companies have done a great job.

Ronny in my experience the rocker doesn't go away, if anything they become more rockered and then seem to wear roughly at the same time. I find with a truly flat setup I can wear an equivalent rocker in with a few sessions, but I'm still a big fan of rockered frames as they feel great from the off. Once you get used to it skating truly flat set-ups feels like an anti rocker (2 wheel setup) like you're on train tracks.
