HOW TO GRIND ON ROLLER SKATES
In this video, How to Grind on Roller Skates, Estro Jen demonstrates ways to develop a practice grinding on roller skates.
First, you want to know how to skate out of the ramp and onto the deck.
Next, learn to STALL a frontside and backside plate stall.
Then, determine which skate placement your feet will take when you stall onto the coping with all 4 axles on the coping. This trick is known best to roller skaters as a 50-50 position and to bladers or inline skaters, it's known as an X grind.
After you learn the stall, practice carving into the same position that you learned to stall in.
Here are some videos that may help you follow along with Estro.

I LOVE these ramp vids estro! Thanks so much.
7:17 I watched your toe stop unscrew 😳 a a a h h h h
Name it the swoopty doo loopty twisty, flipity boop. 'If I die before I wake, at least in heaven I can skate.' 😇
Can you do a video on fakie stalls? im having a hard time understanding the positioning my body needs to be in to land them! Thank you estro! I also cannot wait to get my hands on the Jack 2 skates :) they look so fun to skate in!
Watched this last nite before bed, started grinding miszous across the whole quarterpipe today. Thanks!!!
You are such a gift to us 💙 thank you for listening!
I love these videos because I get to see your face and how happy skating makes you and it’s really inspiring. Thanks so much for this and your home is a dream for sure! I just learned how to spin 🤣
This is awesome!
Yes, for you 2 showing the curving masterclass. Ps. Your demo of pumping - both of you - that was sooooo to the point!!
Hello EJ! Awesome video.
I know we’ve seen them before but, I ❤️ the color/style of those Jackies.
Michelle 🎶 🎵 Can't wait to learn everything and anything you are teaching us. Also, can't wait for my CIB blocks to arrive from Moxi sometime soon since they should of came with my skates but I know they're behind production cuz of covid so I don't mind waiting 😌 your videos inspire me so much. Sending tons of love 🌙💫💜🌻🕯🛼
You two guys are so cool together!!!!
us old (80's era) quad sk8r's always referred to it as a "450" grind
These are actually so helpful to just get used to terminology from a beginner standpoint even if I can’t do them yet, would you be ever consider doing a video on the ways to stop and/or transitions between front and back??
okay im not sure what you said at 11:50 but that was my favorite part lol
What an awesome pad!

I correct myself I live you both !
Estro Jen please do a separate video on carving for grinds and slides !!
That's so cool! I'm so on the fence on if I wanna get some agressive roller blades or some skates! I already have urban blades and my gf is getting moxxi skates so I was considering getting the Jackson vibe vinyls but I also just love blades like ahhhg! I want them all! Why can't I just have infinite money XD
Please, can You explain, what is the main difference between grind and slide? You're the best out here, thank You
Someone give this man a microphone! haha
AGREE about the names, ugh! We need to get to a consensus & take our own names if the derivation is dissimilar. I like calling this the Fo-Fitty grind (get it, x4 50s?!) but yeah I think 50-50 still applies IF it is a grind. Some skateboarders say it has to be grinding, the stall version is an Axle Stall, but many in roller skating still call the stall 50-50 which I think is a bit off. Just my humble opinion! Love the vids SO MUCH

I like 4x50 but I’ve also heard people trying to start “100”

@@kaleighwright6179 I mean that is cute, but the name comes from having 1/2 your wheels on transition and 1/2 over coping, like 1/2 in half out... so the 100 thing doesn't really capture that. But to each their own!

@@kaleighwright6179 it’s called a 50/50 grind in skateboarding because the board is half in, half out of the ramp. So 50/50 still works here, I think.
Hey what size trucks you using ???
can you please make or refer a video about wax and how/when/where to use it? for grinding + sliding. i haven't had luck finding many technical video resources on it.

oh yikes. Wax makes sliding faster. After we learn to slide we get used to the coping and notice when the coping sticks. Wax can prevent sticking, any candle will do.

I am a rollerblader, so part of me wants you to borrow our trick names, but since you don’t really have the concept of “top side”, it does seem more accurate to call these tricks “frontside” or “backside”. So a Soul grind is a frontside trick and a topsoul is a backside trick. On the other hand, A Mizou is a backside trick, and a Sweatstance (topside Mizou) is a frontside trick.
When did people start aggressive skating in quads?
I love y’all ! 🤣🤣 hahahaha

A few people I talk to call them X grinds because of blading, but most people I talk to call grinding on all 4 trucks 50-50's or "fiddies" since you're on trucks instead of a frame/soul plate. But 50-50's on a skateboard are just a 2-truck trick! Maybe we should call them 100-100's instead, or "hundreds" for short!

This is what I’ve always thought, someone said “Benjamin” like a 100 dollar Bill so I call them Benjis 🤭
If you look from Miguels side. I would call it an "Outside/Inside edge grind"

I like that you don't call it rollerblade grind names.
It's technically like a 50/50 50/50 grind I guess an actual 50/50 would be one foot and a 5/0 would be one truck
testos Jeroen
A Dubble 50 grind, on one foot would be a 50-50 gind ;p
I plan to do is go to a concrete park and mark my half rainbow
I call 50×50 because i rollerskate with skaters 🤷🏻♀️🕵🏻♀️
