how to change your roller skate wheels and bearings

come chill with me while you learn how to change your wheels.
Skate maintenance doesn't need to be scary. The sooner you get comfortable with the parts of your skate, the better.

Also, I'm in need of a video editor.
If you know someone, send them my way please.

p.s: Find me other places and check out my adult rollerskating course if you like a more structured approach. From sock practice drills and move breakdowns to skate affirmations and beyond. I’ve got you covered there too boo.

I cannot thank you enough. I was terrified when I was changing my wheels and i couldn't get the bearing out i thought i was about to spend HUNDREDS on a device for them but this solved everything, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

The happy noise I made when you popped those bearings out because I was about to be SO sad I thought I spent money on the wrong kind of wheels (first timer lol don’t judge) when I truly had no idea you had to change the bearings like this. THANK YOU!!

Love your videos. You make this so simple and easy 💜 I've bought some wheels for outdoors and not yet changed them over. This video is just the help I was looking for. Thank you 💜🌟

I’m 38 just learning to skate lol happy your here, just followed on the gram😊

Thank you girl, I owe you my life. I thought I would have to buy bearings for my new wheels. I was able to change them no issue after you showed how to remove the bearings from my previous wheels! 😊

Thank you for this video. I just got a pair of skates and didn’t even consider that I could modify them. I love your channel. Thank you for all the work you do.

I just bought some used darts on ebay to start my roller derby journey! Thank you for this video! It was so approachable and made me excited to skate!

This was so awesome and helpful, Thanks!

[whosyermama]

thanks for this! I want to start rink skating more and I'm going to get some light up wheels today cause sometimes it's real dark in there lol

Do you have a link to these specific Luminous wheels? So cute!

hi there. I originally buy 58mm/85A skate wheels. I truly wanted to go outdoor. Is it okay if I buy 65mm/78A? Will those bigger wheels get stuck or is it still gonna slide smoothly? 🥺

[PokeSparkz]

Thanks great video! I’m just getting back into it and was going to add new bearings from bones and new wheels. This looks pretty easy but dumb question will any skate bearings fit in 59m wheels?

[kcl]

Thanks so much! So can you just use a wrench to remove that but, rather than the skate tool, if we don't have that

Hey Dasia, what hardness would you recommend for hybrid wheels? or should i just get a set of new wheels to use at the rink? I have a 78a wheels right now

[jamarialabraham]

Why do you keep both bearings on when you change them out? Is that how skates originally come? Or did I miss something.

[Anna-wdox]

I’m about to buy my first pair thanks to you 🥰🌸 I know I’m going to want to change the wheels as I’m planning to skate more so
Outdoors.
but i wanted to make
Sure there wasn’t a “size”
Issue. I know I want outdoor wheels but I like the bigger wheels I think. Is there anything I should lookout for? I like some moxi wheels but my boot isn’t moxi is interchanging brands ok? Is there such a thing a getting wheels that are “too big”

[apricotdog]

I'd like to get an extra set of wheel nuts to keep handy in case a lose a wheel outdoors. What do search for and could skateboard nuts work too?

[stephanienance]

Thanks so much for all you put out there! I’m really curious on styles and types of wheels. I originally learned to skate on dance wheels always indoors. I once tried taking an old pair outside and it was awful. Also, I always had a low skate nonboot style skate. Can we talk a bit about styles and how to choose what is good for you?
