Thanks! Approaching 40 years old and this will help me work on my weakness. Never too late

Just stared blading again after 20 years.....falling hits differently awesome video thank you!

Loved the tidbit about toe to heel and bringing your feet together. All the transition videos talk about the beginner stagger, but don’t mention that! Awesome!

OMG, Acosta, finally you´ve recorded this videos series. Quarter pipe, mini rmp, half pipe, whatever. I was waiting for it.

All these maneuvers are easy. I'm waiting for the next video, man. My name is Isac, greetings from Brazil.

Always bringing dope content!

yo! really helpful! Thanks man! Im 34 and learning quarter pipes now:) Love from Lithuania

You know how long I’ve been waiting for this? Too long! Thanks for finally making a video on this!

I know I know, haha go get em!!!

This really came just at the right time! I've only just started the quarter pipe a couple of days ago and I'm getting the hang of things slowly. One of my main problems is that I tend to end up jumping up to the top rather than rolling up to the coping of the quarter pipe. I'm not used to the feeling and I still get scared hahaha. I can't wait to try out your tips when I hit the quarter pipe again!! Thanks :)

Dude, this is super-gold stuff man. I wish I knew the nuances of transition when I first started skating - just had to figure it out with lots of falling! Ok at it now though😁 Props to you. Your a fantastic teacher !👍

Never had access to vert growing up so learning has been a whole lot of fun. I definitely struggle with the coping so I really appreciate this. New 50/50 wheels coming in today, can't wait to bring them to the vert this weekend! Thanks a lot man, keep killing it!

Dude I wish we skated quarters back in the day. There's so much value from skating them. Like riding a wave! So fun!!! I had to completely change the way I skated when I came back. That was the best part. Getting to relearn something i love to do. Have you tried to connect with the blade fam out there?

Also during the early days everyone was competitive especially me lol but now it's just about individual growth and having fun. While sharing with the community. Lawrence is a good guy he tends to skate more solo. Idk about Long but theres the guacamole crew out there. Or you guys could just move back and we can start a serious skate camp lol

Dropped in my first quarter pipe today...at 38 years old! Then stayed at the ramp for 3 hours, just repeating the movement. Was absolutely buzzing. Tried get a few stalls on the coping but would always overshoot onto the top. Anyway just gonna keep chipping away at it. Real happy

Nicely put together tutorial. Thanks! Im just about managing to get out and land on my feet but wasn't sure where to go next. Will definitely try this soul stall and back in.

You have the best videos ever

nice skates, I've got the same

you are a very good instructor, thanks a lot for all these tips, I'll try them next time I go to skate park, I'm a rollerblader for a while but I got my first aggressive skates recently, so I would like to try a lot

Thanks for your tutorials! They are great and thanks to you I gave switch tricks a go. For me, however, it was much easier to try them on coping rather than on ledges (currently learning to stall all the soul tricks switch on a low coping but on ledges I'm still a bit terrified). It has to do with my dominant foot and shoulder being the left one, so actually doing a switch soul feels more natural rotationwise, while a normal soul feels more natural to lock but more difficult to turn (same with "switch" frontsides). Also not having to jump into the grind helps for me. Maybe something worth mentioning in the next quarter pipe tutorial?

Very nice videos!

Thanks for the quarter pipe lesson, can you please add a video on how to air quarter pipes and how to grab?

Excellent tutorial , if rollerblading was popular like skateboarding you would have 1 mil subscribers

I have some mental barriers to fight before I can take proper advantage of these tutorials. Mostly working on my 180s on ramps until I feel comfortable facing the quarter, and also just riding up and then going down fakie. I'm ridiculously terrified of not knowing what to do, and it's keeping me back... I wish it stopped raining here, even for just a couple of days! It's been more than a month since I last hit the skatepark.

Same problem here 🙋😅

I dont have any problem going up over the coping, doing 180s, sometimes doing transfers..... but i really have a problem on getting my stalls, the momentum always push me forward and its hard to lock into coping, do you have any tips on my problem? ill appreciate it! 😁😁

Been having issues controlling my speed and over shooting the coping. Any advise?

question! i'm using a freestyle setup. not anti-rockers or flat. would it be much harder to roll all the way up to stall? feels like i'd slip before i'd lock in the groove

@acostablades8138

4 жыл бұрын

Depends on your bearings and skill level. My son skates free style and can slide this coping. But on higher obstacles he struggles to make it to the top. You'll be alright depending again on skill level and speed. Once at the top you should have no problem locking in.

any suggestion how to avoid wax when you drop in from quarter pipe?or how to drop in safely without slipping off when the coping is all waxed?

@joshacosta7986

I'd say press firmly and evenly onto or into your grooves. Dont allow an imbalance to occur. Left leg or right... stay solid when dropping back in. Hope that helps. Let me know how it goes

Maybe try leaving slightly back as you go up the quarter, waiting for that perfect moment to lean at the top once your feet lock on. Wear a helmet while learning this, Good luck and get that front side laced!

Doing a soul stall on coping is the worse pain ever on my ankle, the grind is fine but the stall is horrible, clearly I am doing something wrong :(

Nobody covers how to get over the coping, I've been carving ramps for like a year but have never really figured out how to pop over it and actually get on top of the ramp without scrambling up once I get to the top

First!
