The weirdest experience I had was going from a loose-ankled quad boot (roller skating) to trying to ice skate in an artistic boot! I couldn't bend my ankles and it drove me nuts!!! I feel your pain, man. The tiniest differences can make you feel like you're put back 3 levels! But you seemed to transition fairly smoothly! 👍

I keep falling backwards! My brakes on my inlines were on the back of both my skates but with my quads I keep falling backwards on my ass lol. If I ever lost my balance and started falling backwards on my inlines, my brakes would touch the ground and I'd regain balance very quickly. I didn't have the same problem with falling forward anyway, I only fell when actually doing some stuff with inlines, with the quads I fall when I'm simply rolling. I wasn't that great with my inlines bc I hadn't been skating for that long but now it definitely feels like I'm a total noob again. It's fine though, it's fun learning something from scratch

I'm an inline skater and considering of getting a new pair of quad skates for dancing for the first time. Thanks for your first experience video.

Smooth transition to quads!

I like those jumps, like deconstructed Axels from figure skating! The one thing with figure skating (ice or inline) I loathe is that orthodox approach like "it has to be so and so"....giving it that urban edgemakes it so much cooler! Like the guys from Patin Libre (Canada), it's more fun than the strict and often boring figure skating routine.

don't forget artistic roller skating the other cousin of the ice and inline figure skating but ye this urban version of the axel make things more free and dynamic, even that i still appreciate the cleaness of a well landed axel

Skate a few circuits and then tighten the kingpin nut by half a turn on each truck and skate again, repeat till you find what works for you. There is no 'Right' setting, some prefer them loose and soft bushings whilst others like myself have the hardest bushings i could find and have them tight, its a matter of personal preference. i have my fronts tighter than my backs, i prefer the way it makes my skate handle but that comes down to skating style and posture.

Quads are absolutely fine outside, they are more agile than inline skates, just run 78A wheels (i use nothing else indoors or out) and start on reasonably smooth outdoor surfaces first but you'll soon be skating on rough pavement without a problem and it just requires more physical effort than a smooth even surface.

@Pulse992

That's not entirely accurate...quads, inline, and skateboarding came up on different tracks. It is true quads came before either inline or skateboards (barely). Skateboarding borrowed the wheels from roller-skating technology. But skateboarding is the direct offspring of Surfboarding; surfers wanted a way to practice surfing outside of the water. In-lines were invented in the 1700 by John Joseph Merlin, a Belgian inventor. This would have been around the same time as quad skates were invented. The modern inline skating craze however took its inspiration from ice skating, because the wheels line up like the blade of an ice skate, and in particular speed skating...initially speed skaters latched onto inline skates as a way to practice speed skating while they were off the ice...and it became a thing. Roller-skating was big as recreation in the 1930's, 40's and 50's. But because the technology was so bad: wooden or metal wheels (and the wooden ones were the good ones) and plates that had to be screwed onto you street shoes, it was never as big as it is now. Mostly kids were the ones who roller-skated, and then they mostly did it on the sidewalks. The few rinks that existed, only played organ music, which was hard to hear over the noise of the metal wheels. So the skating fad died out until the 1970's when skateboards came out with polyurethane wheels. (Yes, skateboards came out with that first.) Skate parks started springing up all over the world, Then some enterprising business executive realized the roller-skate industry was missing out on something big and slapped the polyurethane wheels onto a pair of roller skates and mass produced them, bringing the roller-skating craze back front and center.
