this was so informative and aesthetically pleasing that I almost forgot I don't own any skates and have no idea how to roller skate

Hello Dasia, your videos are very much helpful ! I used your tips to clean my bearings last week, and while I was at it I checked my cushions, took off the truck only to discover that out of my 4 pivot cups, only one was still in place (although completely cracked) the other 3 totally broke into small pieces. Almost nobody talks about this component of the skates (I just discovered it last week) when it seems to be something to check and replace from time to time to ensure stability and not cause damage to the plate.
Also, I bought my Moxi Lolly back in 2014 when I was trying to learn quad skates, tried and failed on several attempts over the years but I haven't used them regularly until last autumn : I go to my local club to take classes once or twice a week. I guess the rubber parts were too old to handle that, I struggled to find the right pivot cup replacement due to a change of size from the manufacturer, but I am waiting for them to arrive before getting back on skates and practice your tutorials here on french grounds ;)

Hi Dasia - thank you for making this video, I’ve found your channel so helpful already!
I have a question about skate tools - I bought my skates at a charity store and they didn’t come with a tool. Will a spanner work? Or should I buy the multi tool?

I'm a beginner and I just bought some Fundae wheels for indoor rink skating to put on my new Beach Bunnies-- I've heard some very mixed things; some people seem to LOVE them while others hate them or think they aren't good for anything in particular. What's your opinion? Do you think I made a good decision, or at least not a disastrously bad one?

[veronicastewart]

Hello there from Mobile. I’m 64 and want to skate, I skated in my teens and twenties you have any suggestions. Thanks for sharing great video by the way !

[mtenorio]

I learned so much from this video. However, I’m looking for the tutorial that you said you would link below. On how to adjust the trucks. Not sure if I’m just not seeing it or what 😭 but I even searched for it and can’t find it!

[crystal_leopard]

6:41 What is the brand name for those wheels? I would really like to buy them.
