Skating Southern New England

Добавлен 7 янв 2018
In early 2020, at the age of 54, I rediscovered skating, something I did a lot of, as a kid (ice, pond hockey, rollerblades-briefly in the late 80s-early 90's).
I enjoy rockered freestyle inline skating, on just about any surface, or time of year.
This channel is just a place I started, as something to look back at, to see my progress over time, but I found I enjoy creating content that might entertain skaters alike.
I live in the Attleboro area of Massachusetts, but I spend much of my skating time in Boston, because it's got it all, for the skating I love to do.
I skate mainly for fitness-with distance, but I love to mix it up with freestyle/slalom stuff, too, which I'm in the process of learning, as well as creating my own style of skating, whatever that is.
I'm 5'-9", 140-150LBS
Boots: Seba High Light Carbon Pro
Frames: Seba 243MM Full Rocker
Wheels: Labeda Asphalt 80MM 85A
Bearings: Junk Bearings Ceramic-Titanium

#inlineskating #rollerblading The wind wasn't that bad today, but if it wasn't for that, today would have been a perfect January skating day. (I was there last night, too) I was never cold, so it was a great skate, regardless. I say "Rollerblading" in the title, but the skates are the Seba High Light Carbon Pros, 80mm, full rocker.

#inlineskating #rollerblading #boston #insta360 Today was much like yesterday, except there was no wind today. Both sessions were 14 miles each and I have yet to see the resulting damage to the camera lens, as I finished recording in single lens only.

We could not ask for better weather in October, for this awesome skate session in Boston. We discussed possibly making this a regular, informal Saturday event, for anybody interested, as early Saturday Boston skate sessions have been my priority, every week of the year, whenever the roads are skateable, and not TOO cold and/or windy out.

whats the best overall skate can u recommend? im new to skating. I wanna do skating like u and sometimes use vert ramp. thx!
If you're new to skating, unless you already know, there are many different ways to skate, and with that, comes the proper skates for what you want to do. You say you want to skate like me, AND use a ramp. I can tell you, if you were to try any ramps in a rockered setup such as mine, you will never try it again. I can't even do them. And the reason is simple: My setup is rockered. Any jumps, other than hops, and some small jumps are fine, but anything more than that can be very risky, because landing in that setup, is only on a wheelbase of 81MM. (2 wheels) You take the chance of landing, and flying backward, or forward, very unexpectedly, because of that setup. I would suggest the Endless 90 setup. It's not quite the same skating style I do, but it's a great setup for distance, jumping, tricks, and much more. It's also becoming very popular. If rockered skating interests you, then begin with a decent quality skate, with 4 80mm wheels, setup flat, and start from there, and see where it takes you. I hope that helps you, and best wishes whichever path you take!
@ do u have a link wherr i can buy the endless 90 setup i think i cant buy them i live in the netherlands dont know if they ship to here
@ www.endlessblading.com/pages/where-to-buy
@@Skating-Southern-New-England any other brands u recommend?
Osam sir 🎉🎉🎉 osam
The streets look clean. Sand and salt make it difficult where I live.
Oh, there will be plenty of salt and sand to contend with, very soon. I'm pretty sure we are eventually going to get hit with a typical New England winter that will keep me off the streets for some time. I haven't seen a winter like that in a while, but I know we are due.
Looking very chill in this video. 😶🌫️
I spent many hours on the ponds in some seriously cold winters in the 70's and 80's, so I'm a bit more used to it, as long as I'm layered up correctly. It's the wind that can really mess up things, though. 😅
Ciesz się ładną pogodą. U mnie jest zima. Ale myślę że będzie krótka 😀
Watching this on TV while you're skating! Texting this while on my phone. Lol
With a bowl of spaghetti, I hope! 🙂

nice video : ), just got a pair of inline skates, looking to skate this weekend
Enjoy!!
Great video! Looks so different with the snow. 😊
Yea, it was a little dicey in some areas. LOL Thanks man, and happy holidays!
❤
I just found your channel, I'm loving watching every video 😊
I'm so glad you enjoy it! Happy holidays!
This looks like a peaceful, fun skate. I only skated the streets of Boston one time during SkateBoston 2022, the Saturday night skate. It was an absolute blast, but I'm intimidated to go skate the city without a group to lead me. I just dont know the roads well enough. Keep on rockin the boots, man.
Thanks. I started at Castle Island, and it wasn't long before I ventured my way into the city. Once I did, it didn't take long to figure it all out. Skating with SkateBoston is awesome, because they know all the little hidden gems connecting between the popular main paths throughout the city.
Nice peaceful skating video. Good footage as always. That ramp you were going down on 1 foot... last time we were with you skating, I bombed it in the toe toe position. It's a nice spot to glide as long a nobody else is coming towards you.
Thanks, Dave! I just love that bridge!
Nice video, can I ask what wheels you're using in this video?

@@Skating-Southern-New-England It was only a microscopic remark compare to all the good time you give to all of us, stuck in front of our screens. I really enjoy watching your YT, you guys & the views of NY. Thanks again 🤓🤓🤓
@alainremi267 Thanks, man. It's Boston, but I hear ya. They taught me the metric system 50 years ago. I never stopped them from going with it 🤣
@@Skating-Southern-New-England Oups !!! Boston indeed 🤐🤐🤐
Fantastic 🎉 good job
@@bfouvaz Thank you!
Can't beat a morning skate.
It's my favorite time.
My dream. I'm learning for more than a month and don't get one foot for more than 2 or 3 seconds😂😂😂😂
@@turtlecat7856 You will be surprised, with practice, how quickly 2 or 3 seconds becomes 3 or 4 seconds, etc. Make the dream a reality. 🙂
With the 2 falls glad you are good. Streets look so empty on Sunday mornings.
Only fell once, but man, that curb is a tricky one! (I believe you would know it, if you were there......I think that one gets a lot of people!)
Baa khub sundor❤❤❤
Great clarity…..it all makes sense?
Thanks. I try to make some sense out of it.
Great stuff fellas
Thanks, man! I hope Andrew catches up with you guys. He'd LOVE it!
@@Skating-Southern-New-England did you give him and of the instagram info?
@@colinhaze_skates-98 In my reply to his comment in this video, yes.
Excellent video! 👏🏼 👏🏼 I really enjoy the way you organized the timeline to feature your ride throughout the day. Very cool street spots. Thank you so much for the feature! It was so nice to meet you Kevin! I am interested in meeting other skaters in the area and going on group rides. Please keep me in mind for future! 🙏🏼 Be well!
Thanks, Andrew! It surprised me to see the park so empty at that time of day, on such a great day, but what surprised me even more, was that of the few people who were there, we got to meet a decent skater, who belongs in a group! Check out SkateBoston, or if you hang out at that park enough, you will surely run into a group looking for skaters like you. linktr.ee/sk8bos
Was a fun day all things considered lol
Definitely!
What a cool vid! I used to ride Bike Trials, but i always loved inline skating. But I just start learning. I wish i could join you guys for practice. I started to practice in 2021, but I fell while just standing still and this twisted my ankle, so i started to be affraid to continue practicing. :( I live in Somerville.
If you are learning, take it a little at a time. Use protection, and take it easy. Never try to do too much in one session. Be patient, stick with it, and everything will fall into place, over time.
저는 스피드 스케이트를 타고 있어서, "rocker setup" 은 무섭습니다. 그러나 타고계신 모습을 보니 무척 자유로워 보입니다. ^^
@@드래곤박TV 정확히. 방금 두 스케이팅 스타일의 차이점을 정확하게 설명하셨네요. 🙂
Loved the video. I got a question.....I need another pair of inline skates. I bought a pair last year but they're too large and too heavy. I have an extra wide foot and finding any skates is a chore. I need something lighter, that fits properly, and allows me to move freely. I live in NYC. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Thanks. Well, I don't know what you had, or what you replaced them with, that was too large and too heavy, so I can only tell you what I know, based on brands I've used. I have Powerslide Hardcore Evos that fit me snug. Definitely not for an extra wide foot. The skates I use most, my Seba High Light Carbons, also fit me very well, but I can't say for sure if they would accommodate wide feet. I never had any problems with any of my rollerblade skates, and I've heard they can be ok for wide feet, but doublechecking never hurts. My FR-1 skates are the skates that I have read, are good for wide feet. (they are definitely more "roomy" than all other skates I've used) I never found them to be heavy.....maybe just a tad bulky. (for what I like to do)
Really good video. Good group of people to be skating with as well. Wish I was in the state to join you all for this one.
Thanks, Dave. It really came together nicely.
Awesome video ! The bike path looks cool 🙂 !
Thank you! Yes, when it comes to path skating, this one is tough to beat.
Best video so far, Kevin!
Thanks, man! You helped make it special and I'm so glad you were part of it.
Really good footage. It looks like you guys had a lot of fun. I would have joined you guys if I was in the state. @daniel.sk8er is his youtube channel. Send the viewers his way.. =)
Thanks, and yes, that was a fun skating day. Definitely going to do that more often. 🙂
It was fun, got some great footage! Really well done, we for sure got to do this again. 😎
For SURE! And thanks for your help with the bridge footage! 👏
@@Skating-Southern-New-England Yeah no problem, was interesting to use the camera with my filming style and see the results after
I have an Endless balanced rocker on my current skates, but I have new skates coming that I will make into a regular rocker by changing the wheel sizes. I love how rockered setups feel!
@@spicyananaspizza Good for you! Yes, to me, they just feel "right".
I changed to a rockered setup about a year ago and I can’t imagine ever going back to flat! I guess I’d classify myself as aspiring artistic skater, and I love the manoeuvrability I have now, though I notice it takes more work to control the skate position, especially at speed. I’m envious of your route with the view of the river!
You know it! I wish you the best in whatever direction you take in that setup. You will be surprised at how much more you can do, over time. That extra "work" you mention, will definitely make you a better, stronger skater. Thank you for this awesome comment!
Eselente
Merci
That looks fun! Very good editing. The video cut scene transitions and the chill jazzy music are smooth. ❤ The dude with the green light up wheels at night time skating makes that area look a bit more bright.
Hay man I wanna learn to skate how can I get in contact with you so we can skate ?

Hi! I'm a roller figure skater but I have a friend in PA who has some other friends who want to start inline slalom freestyle. Is there a local Boston person who teaches slalom who might know someone in PA that teaches? Thanks.
I will look into that and get back to you.
Sorry for the delay, but I'm waiting on a (hopeful) reply from an e-mail I sent out on this to someone I believe would be able to help.
