coming back to say that the tip about moving your hands towards your back hip when going backwards is a really good one! i tried it when i was skating last night and it helped a lot.

It depends on budget, style and foot shape. I have Bont Parkstar roller skates which have great support. They are great for standard to wide feet. If you have narrow then they may feel a little too wide in the toe box

I want to know what are the best roller skates for park and the wheels that work for wood and cement

@ShortysSkateSeries

It's really person preference in terms of park roller skates. I like boots with a lot of support which is why I wear the Bont Parkstar boot. I even have it semi-custom for the super stiff option, but that's just me. For wheels, if you are a beginner getting something like a 89a hardness with round edge is better like the Bont Flow Street, but if you want to go faster you can go 99a-101a but they are super hard. Note: I've only skated on Bont products so that's all I know 😅

Thank you for this video and your channel. My 9 year old wants to learn to quad skate but we live in Indianapolis and don’t have a skate shop that sells quad skates. Do you have a recommendation for skates to get her started? We appreciate any help you can give us.

Is she looking to park skate or recreational skating? I do recommend Bont skates are they are lightweight and high quality.

@@vernonfamily2373 Yes they do have kids sizes and the Parkstar boot is best for park skating but the smallest in stock size at the moment is 224 - 228mm. But you could order a semi-custom order and get a smaller size but it is about a 10-12 week wait. You can check out the color range here.

Yeah baseball slide is a good one. I started roller skating through roller derby so it's muscle memory to fall on my knees 😅

I normally go to Tukseom X-games skate park near the river.

Question. Guy says I wear US 9.5 men's, but am an EE (Xtra wide?) width. Want to use your bont link. What bont do I buy due to my width?

@ShortysSkateSeries

11 ай бұрын

Sorry for the delay. So some of the Bont boot models are a wide fit so I suggest using the Bont size chart to see what size you are in the boot model you are looking for. The chart has length and width. Then you can contact Bont and ask if your foot width will fit. Also there are some model that they offer in custom width as well.

I wobble alot when rolling off a bank with speed. Is there a way to fix this?

Hmm. You should check your wheels to make sure none of them are loose or your trucks could be too loose. Otherwise you can try bending your knees more as it will lower your center of gravity and you'll feel more stable. It's hard to tell without footage so feel free to DM on Instagram @shortstop.6
