I am with you there. I have a set of Rollerblade macroblade 84 abt's. The abt=active braking tech and is just awesome. It makes it so easy to just slide your foot forward with all wheels still on the ground. My new skates Rollerblade macroblade 100's don't have that technology and it is awful slowing down on these really fast skates going downhill. Rollerblade are idiots for not introducing that (abt) technology to the 100's that they advertise as a transition skate to advanced levels. Why not give you a great brake so you can work on the faster stuff downhill without fear. Just really stupid of them. Anyway, take a look at some of the videos on the technology it is really great. Unfortunately the boot is kinda iffy on those 84's.

When you go too fast you could fall.

That heel stop noise let’s everyone know you are a newby LOL 😄

Yesterday I went from stopping by falling now I’m doing hockey stops for no reason thx for the help😁😁

all of your videos have always been incredibly useful and straight to the point lol. definitely one of my fave youtubers out there

The power slide brings me back to my younger years. I just got back into inline skating recently. Heel stops and T stops are my go to. The grass stop for emergencies. Haha I still have all the muscle memory from all the years I spent rollerblading, so these videos are really helping me refresh my memory memory. :)

I started skating but I didn’t know how to stop and once there was a guy in front of me and he was going slow and I almost crashed into him, he knew that and I didn’t even react I just kept skating

You are such a good teacher! 😊👍 Thank you!

wow this is so amazing thank you for sharing and showing such good examples, this is such a good video

your videos are really useful, thanks

I don't know why I found this video funny :D Very helpful, thank you!

This was very helpful, thanks 👌

Thanks! you're saving lives.

I think T stop is the best way to stop/ and slow down on high speed

Thank you for ideas

An other great tutorial !

I am a complete beginner at inline skating, and braking is probably one of the things i should learn first, and this video has been a lot of help! Just one question, since I've heard I should avoid the T-stop, since it damages the wheels, but how dramatic is this really?

@HowToInlineSkate

7 жыл бұрын

Can damage in two ways. 1) Flat spot if you hold a constant drag for long, e.g. downhill. Avoid this by quickly letting go, braking, etc 2) General wear on the inside edge. The latter is noticeable but not dramatic. I've been out with these skates more than a 100 times. I still use the original wheels. It's just important you rotate (flip, change position) of the wheels after every few times you've been skating. I'll make another video about that.

Oh yes please do make a detailed video about that! Every channel talks about cleaning bearings and changing wheels and how to flip them. Heck EVEN the skate manual says HOW to flip wheels. But yet to discover a video that explains WHEN to switch the wheels (manual has no mention of this). As a beginner I don't skate long nor far, my wheels get worn on the sides because,.. my stride looks like a duck trying to moonwalk. But I have no idea what to look for when the times comes to switch and flip the wheels.

It would be a great idea for a tutorial, but in the meantime, there you have a simple but useful guide about when and how you can rotate your wheels: skating.thierstein.net/Knowledge/Inline_Skating_Rollerblading_Information_Wheel_rotation.html It's common for beginners to skate 'like a duck' to some degree, and wear out the wheels mostly on the inside edge. But be careful, it may also be indicative of your skates not being tight enough, not being your size, or just that they don't have enough lateral support (this is common with cheap fitness skates). Try to focus a little more on keeping the wheels perpendicular to the ground (unless you're turning or braking...), and try to adjust them correctly. When rotating your wheels you have to keep that in mind, and always put the worn out edge towards the outside.

@Bavmorda

7 жыл бұрын

A simple tip: if you see the wheels' wear is yet non symmetrical, they are ready for rotation. The more often you rotate/flip them, the more symmetrical they remain, and the more predictable and comfortable your skating will be.

This channel is brilliant

I love the plow stop I try it today it so easy for me

I think you underestimate the problems that come with balancing and stopping for (true) beginners. I've been practising the heel break several times for a total of several hours before I finally find it fairly comfortable. In the beginning I struggled a lot keeping straight, keeping my skates together, keeping that one wheel on the ground. I would love to see a breakdown on how to practice different techniques sometime. I've tried plow stop and t stop but both have 0 progression so far. The plow stop I seem to have trouble pushing my heels out and making an "A" shape with my feet (my left leg especially just won't turn). The T stop just I dno either starts spinning me or I get to scared to commit to it and abort. Committing to it has resulted in close up inspection of the surface. :')

I understand your struggles, believe me, everyone has been there at the beginning, and I'm a slow learner on the physical things. But, and don't get me wrong, no matter how much tutorials you watch, and how well explained they are, in the end your success depends at least 90% on practice and commitment. Tutorials (and this is a good beginners oriented one) can theoretically break down and explain every little movement, but it is you who need to get the sensations implied to master any technique. The T stop or drag, really, it just depends on keeping good balance with the leading leg, and how much pressure you make on the sliding skate. At first it should be almost none, with practice you'll be able to adjust it without your body turning.

Try a Rollerblade macroblade 84 with the ABT technology. You keep your skate on the ground and just push it forward and the brake activates. It is the only skate I feel comfortable using on steep roads as an early intermediate inliner. Unfortunately the boot kinda sucks.

REAL. I have to run into the grass, lmao. I've tried using the heel break at very low speed and my feet almost slip out from under me. Wrist guards are a must.... Lol (also I have ZERO balance in general and fall over just trying to stand WITHOUT wheels strapped to my feet 😂)

Awesome video man

You just LOVE to be able to use that jump-into-snow clip, don't you? ;) XDGreat video as always, cheers from Spain!

Thank you!

Muito bom. Obrigado!! ; )

I'm struggling with the T-stop but I think this is mainly due to putting too much weight on my dragging leg. As I practice my stop I usually feel like all my weight wants to go onto my dragging foot and I'll usually spin

Martin Hibbert that’s funny because that’s exactly how I turn right and left x) When I’m using my 4 wheels, it would always make me turn or spin so now I’m kinda using it on purpose for this (even tho I basically did this to lose speed) Like you said in your first comment, I think the problem is about putting too much weight on the dragging leg. I’ll try to put more weight in the front leg and see the difference And yeah when I use on wheel, it also works a lot better with me, compared to the 4 wheels together

I love to do the T-stop it’s easy

Nice place

Thanks, this really helped. I haven’t done it in MONTHS and I’m a little rusty, and I just jump on the ground 😭

hey thanks

You should do how to speed skate or how to skate fast

That's one long hug

Good

dose the surface have to be completely smooth or can it be bumpy

I could use the T-stop to reduce my speed going down a hill, right?

Last night I crashed into the mud. Really fun!

First off : I love your videos! My question is how did you determine to put your heel brake on your left foot? I think I'm goofy footed but I've noticed that if I'm going to use a T stop or use my toe stop on quads I use my left foot.. should I use my heel brake on the left also?

I think both for beginners. He is probably left handed and that is his power foot.

i have to learn to stop/slow down because rn i either hit a wall or try to grab a railing by the road and usually fall or yk i start to speed up snd start to lose my balance hhh

Does anyone have any tips for me when it comes to powersliding. I play hockey and i can hockey stop on ice skates but i have no clue how to do that on rollerblades

I still fall if use the T stop, it mean my body still not balance or what? Thanks

how can in will balance

I really dislike the heel stop, but i guess its a must when someone starts skating?

The most efficient stop is actually the heelbrake. Look e.g. here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/c6thxqmMmJmXoZc.html It's way better than T-Stop or even magic. You just have to put enough pressure on it. Had also learned from a skate instructor, that she had compared stopping distances with all different method. Heel is simply the best, but not as flashy as the others.

@HowToInlineSkate

7 жыл бұрын

Yea, it's an excellent video by Shop Task. Not sure he mentioned T-stop though? His point about heel brake is that it can be applied instantly versus the slide stops that need some initialization. The T-stop, as with the heel, is instant and when you push really hard on all four wheels (requires perfect balance not to spin), you have more braking power than with just one rubber pad on the heel.

@HowToInlineSkate

7 жыл бұрын

I should add that when learning t-stop, better keep 90% of weight or more on front skate. Only 10% on dragging, or even just tap is lightly. At this level, yes, absolutely, the heel brake is better. As technique improves, you can add more and more pressure on the dragging skate, and at some point you'll find the t-stop more effective than the heel.

@Bavmorda

7 жыл бұрын

Not only is the T stop potentially more efficient than the heel brake, and it's not about "flashing". The heel brake simply gets in the way for A LOT of techniques, and that can be very dangerous. I'd rather rotate wheels a little more often, than having my skating progress laid back, and perhaps hurt myself hardly, due to a mediocre braking device that gets in the way. If it's so effective, I don't know why don't any downhill and speed skaters wear and use them...
