I've had knee problems for years and learning how to blade is showing me the pain comes mostly from not having crazy strong quads! Looks like I need to work on this basic position, can already feel it making my quads stronger, thank you!

Man this guy is a super pro....I'm just trying to stay up this is advanced.

This was a great video! I love how you explained everything, how you showed all of the moves, and emphasized safety. I appreciated your passion for skating as well. 🤘

[dougbarlow]

Thank you, finially I found a stop that is efficient and easy without trying to be so cool.

[russBB]

[akilovello]

Your balance on rollerskates is crazy!

[jimmyl.bakerjr.]

Awesome!! I used to inline skate in my younger days, but just recently jumped back in. I'm an avid cyclist, but throwing in skating for more variation. Thanks!!!

Great video! I played roller hockey for 7-8 years almost every day growing up, but have not inline skated for ~15 years. I just picked it up again a couple weeks ago and as I got some muscle memory back, I realized that most of my movements were limited to short bursts of speed with sharp stops/changes of direction for hockey. I didn't really have a set position/form for maintaining speed and position over distance.

The segment on the basic position was excellent! I had tweaked my body/skate angle to engage my calves and glutes more, but was not utilizing my quads as much as needed. Realized from your video that I need to be sitting way lower in my basic position to engage the quads. I expect a lot more power from each push off now! And fatiguing a lot faster...

Thanks for this video it will prove helpful once I get back to roller blading / speed skating again. I had to quit in order to devote my time to my studies and have greatly missed the sport. And I can’t wait to get back to it after I’m done my studies.

Wow, only the Word Wow!! happy for superb pro skater sharing technique I hope I can pass 28 km/hr to 30km/hr someday with these knowledge. Thank you very much that helps

Great tips! 

Two questions: 
1. When you push with your leg, what is the direction of the push? To the side (90 degree angle) ?
2. How do you maintain good pressure? By actively pushing into the ground?

I'm a rugby player. So, I'm used to being low in a rucking, tackling position.
I'm 38 though, and need to lighten up the contact.
I just bought my first pair of endurance inlines.
Thanks for the tips! I'm not focused on speed, but more so distance so I can find other ways to stay in shape as my rugby career slows down.
My son recently started speed skating! So, my marathon running days had me researching endurance skating!!
