I just love you Dasia. I just finished my skating practice tonight. You inspire me. I love how graceful you are when you skate.

Thanks for the inspiration! I bought skates over a year ago, and they haven't been outside yet. I rented skates at a small rink while I was out of town and had one of my worst falls, so feeling a bit leery. Need to buy some butt pad shorts 😊

Before my skates came in, the first thing I did with my rental skates was to adjust the trucks and check the wheels. I am a little OCD though 😂.

I come from a rollerblade upbringing. When I first learned quads I was so scared of loose trucks, that I would make sure to tighten them to kingdom come. After about a year, I just finally loosened them back to where they should be and oh my god. My skate game quite literally leveled-up. Like a whole new world opened up for me.

Yes, i was doing this very thing yesterday, trying to dial in my trucks so i could get the transition down.
Loosened and now i have enough movement to try it. Was struggling with too tight trucks, so thank you for clarifying this process 💚

I didnt even think about adjusting my trucks, I didnt know I could!! I have really bad problems staying focused on videos too but yours is easy for me to follow, thank you so much for this I cant wait to try tightening up my trucks and seeingbhow that helps my balance etc!

Than you so much

[blacksailsinthesun]

Whoa I can't wait to try this! Fell on my butt tonight at my local indoor park 😂 hopefully this will help!! I didn't think about the difference in weight on my skates apart from side to side so this is gonna help me in my mission to do the little spinney turn around 😂 thank you for the top tips 🤘

[aprildubose]

Thank you!
I did lend my tool to a couple of skateboarders, who were having a tough time witht the rental skates. It felt like a community service 😁

[slicksophistication]

I love how you teach, and I feel you're blessed and highly favored. Do you provide classes in person 🤔?

[barbaradecerchio]

I am skating on a similar surface to the one in your videos, and wondering what durometer wheels you have. Mine are 78A and I feel like I want to move to 83A so I can do 3-turns a little easier. (I used to be a figure skater, so this roller skating this is a little different!) Thanks!

What do you recommend for trucking?
Mine are pretty tight usually,
I'm not used to loose trucks, and always tighten them back up, but
My trucking really sucks,
Do you think looser trucks would help?

[erikamelissaann]

how did you find that skating pavillion? Ive been trying to find somewhere like that

[grkbiatch]

Hey Dasia! I love your videos! Thank you for your time doing this :) just a quick question: I skate outdoors with soft wheels but I feel I cannot control my skates (besides being a beginner) it s like i cant control them in terms of spinning, like my wheels are going too fast if that makes any sense. Is that a problem of how tight my trucks are or is there anything else I should adjust? Thank you in advance❤

[geekxlove]

How loose can you go? Like should they wobble when you hold the boot up or is that too loose?
