Same here!

I tried this on 125mm wheels and launched myself 6 feet in the air creating my own move.

Love this stuff! Would love to see a full trick list and tutorials for these, maybe if I get more competent 🤣

Thanks for saying that you have been working on these moves for over a year. If I don't nail a technique within an hour I get disheartened. Perhaps I should be more patient, but then I don't have as much time as you, I'm sixty and have only been skating for eighteen months, hahahaha. Thanks for the video.

Thats amazing! Your passion and drive will help improve your skills quickly. When I am learning a new technique I only let myself try it three times. If I do not get it then I take a step back. For example, if I am working on a Gazelle and I don't get the desired result after three attempts, I will go back to doing some simple slaloming to get back in the flow. After getting my flow back I will then try the Gazelle again.

That is awesome! I did this video before Leon and Colin came through Calgary on their way to Boston, New York, Detroit ... ect. I learned a lot from their visit.

Finally! A tutorial that explains 3's on inlines done well. I have performed some of the movements (w/o knowing what they were) by a lot of experimenting like you mentioned. However, I have always felt they were jerky b/c I would "hop" rather than the deep leaning that you demonstrated here and prove they can look ultra-smooth. I will continue to work on these... thanks for sharing! Inlines and ice skating (w/ wireless headphones) are the best therapy - it's amazing what you will discover when you learn to lose yourself in the process.

Man, this was like opening new horizons for skating technique to me, thanks a lot for that video :) Can you give some more advise on how to start learning one foot 3 turns?

@FlowSkate

7 жыл бұрын

1) Gliding one foot - weight on 3rd wheel when gliding forward; weight on 2nd wheel when gliding backwards. 2) Gliding on one foot around a circle. Practise inside edge and outside edge; forward and backwards. Body weight in on 3rd wheel going forward and 2nd backward. 3) Slaloming on one foot. Forward and backward. Again...weight on 3rd wheel forward and 2nd wheel backwards. 4) Now you are ready for the three turn. Start gliding on one foot around a circle. The three turn happens when "push" into the circle by compressing and "pull" out of the circle by decompressing.

Please make more videos on this! this is my type of skating. flat with fancy footwork! :D

Can it be done with regular frames or do I have to use the wizard frame ?

Can you do these moves on all skates, seba fr1's for example? Or do you need these frames? Hard wheels? *Please note, I tried it once on my seba and ended on my back/arse

Do you use rockered skates for 1 foot 3-turns? I have 3x110 setup and I can do some gazelle like thing but this 1 foot 3-turn just doesn't work for me. I can do them on ice but on wheels they just don't work. I like your skating style, you're doing a great job! Greetings from Hungary!

I need to do a updated Wizard skate video. I do have this video kzread.info/dash/bejne/onqXu9iDepmwnbg.html which goes through my complete set up. The Wizards are amazing skates. I have many other high end set ups, Trix 90, igors, fr1, GM fusions, Mission D3 Inhaler...nothing comes close to the Wizard for city skating. The new Wizard NR100 Complete has a new Seba SX boot that fits a little different than previous models. Leon Basin can help us with fitting if you are interested.

How much does something like your Wizard frames affect doing the 3-turn? Can you still do it with a flat configuration?

@FlowSkate

7 жыл бұрын

Yes you can. However 3 turns are easier on a slight rocker. The natural rocker that is built into the Wizard frame is similar to the natural wear of your wheels. Try rotating your wheels 1 to 1, 2 to 2, 3 to 3 and 4 to 4. This will create a natural rocker.

Nice video! Those were some sweet moves. Can't wait to try them out- I use 84/85a wheels and I feel like I'm too sticky to the ground to be able to swivel forwards to back, any tips?

@FlowSkate

7 жыл бұрын

The "sticky" feel is likely a result of your weight being slightly off in your feet. The number on correction is to try with your head up. Too often we want to look down at our feet when we are learning something new. The weight transfer on a front to back transition is heel to toe. If there is too much weight in your toes then the swivel will feel very sticky.

Dude, can you explain how to practice the spin at 0:25 ?

Hi! Would you say that these moves are only possible on Wizard frames? Are normal rockable 4 wheel, or even 3 wheel possible to do these?

do 3 turns count if you gotta lift to only the front wheel. it seems very difficult to do so on wizard frames without lifting to the front wheel

Is using the rocker configuration strictly necessary to learn this?

Are the roles rockered?

Do your skates have to be rockered to do this?

OK........now explain how you do this. what are the keys to building the skills it takes. Is there a weight shift on the front wheels and back wheels depending on forward to back and backward to forward? I see the 3 shape in the turn but not exactly how to do it.

I feel that i cannot do that transition from inside and outside edge

So this is less of a jump type move and just a force the skate around and change edges? do you unload the skate at all ? (lift weight)

@FlowSkate

Yes. There is a definite unweighting during the transition.

how would you rotate wheels in a wizard frame?

@FlowSkate

7 жыл бұрын

Personally I don't rotate my wheels. I like the feel of the worn wheels. However, if you want to maximize the wheel life you can rotate the wheels in the usual 1 to 3 and 2 to 4 pattern. Another good rotation pattern that will keep the nice feel of worn wheels but still help with the lifespan of the wheels is 1 to 1, 2 to 2, 3 to 3, 4 to 4. Simply switching the wheels from one skate to the other and keeping them in the same position.

Are you doing using rockered wheels for these moves?

@FlowSkate

7 жыл бұрын

Yes, the wheels are slightly rockered. The Wizard frame is built with a very unique natural rocker that is great for this type of skating.

That's sick. I've got a much better feel on the ice for tricky edge transitions, I personally find it easier. I don't quite have the money zone feel for the road surface, and that drag/tackiness of the wheels. You guys are slick though man, that's tough on that surface.

What's the difference between the natural rocker wizard frames compared to rockering using wheels? I'm using 76-80-80-76. Is there any advantage when using a prerockered frame?

@FlowSkate

7 жыл бұрын

The NR Wizard has 2 differences. The natural rocker is much smaller than a traditional rocker. On your 76-80 you have a 2mm rocker over a distance of 80mm. On the NR100 the rocker is 1mm over 100mm. The NR Wizard is a UFS frame with a slight tilt forward. This creates a pivot point on the third wheel.

@gottfired

7 жыл бұрын

Thanks. I didn't know that they are UFS. I'd really like a rockered frame for normal 165 mount but with less rocker. Cause as you said 2mm feels a bit too much for me. When fast this setup starts to wobble.

We have considered making Wizard frames for the normal mount. Right now we feel like the UFS is the best suited for the skating experience we are trying to create.

3 turns look way better and feel way better with the Wizards. You can do 3 turns on any set up. I have a pair of Mission D3 Inhalers and they are great for 3 turns. However, when you do 3 turns on Wizards, the rhythm is different. The Wizard frames are expensive for us to make. The frames are made in the Seattle Washington out of 7000 grade aluminum. Costs are: 1 - Materials (There is a lot of aluminium in each frame) 2 - Machine time (CNC machining, plus we upgraded the cutting bits for the second run) 3 - Man hours (Skilled labour is expensive) 4 - Finishing costs (Anodizing, wheels, bearings, axles) As we continue to refine the manufacturing process we will be able to make them less expensive. We do not want there to be huge barriers for people to enjoy the frames and right now the cost is a huge barrier. We will continue to work hard at lowering the price but right now they cost what they cost.
