'Learn to fall' - I've heard it given as a tip for beginner skaters ever since I started six years ago, but have never, ever seen a video saying how to do it. This is a first, so big, big thanks 👍👍👍
Hey man this a good topic you've covered. Even though your channel is relatively new you're on the right path and I like your thumbnails of your video because it stands out. Good job again
Its super cool getting your martial arts perspective on this, the control you need for MA is completely different than the control you need to blade, but there is a lot of over lap. Loving this content man!
you sir are a life saver. I have learning rollerblading and it has become pretty clear that if I don't learn how to fall properly I'll break my hips. thank you so much for this tutorial
Thanks for this I studied martial arts since a kid on and off The importance of knowing how to fall can actually save your life it has for me First thing I would learn a shoulder roll from karate and have it ready when you need it I guess I was lucky to learn
I feel so old watching this. Great content though! I skated for 10 years as a kid with no serious injurious somehow (i rollerbladed(main sport), skateboarded and did bmx). Mostly street stuff with big gaps and sketchy rails. Guess i was lucky. Now im 30 and just straped on rollerblades for the first time in 10 years today and it felt so weird. My body cant move and jump the way it used to. Im a bit scared of getting a bad injury now that i have a job and adult responsibilities. So this video is what i didnt know i needed till i randomly came across it.
Also a suggestion: Find a parkour gym (if possible) and take the basic intro classes. They emphasis falling before giving any movement lessons. That's what I did many years ago as a refresher on falling. Good video and I liked the illustrative overlays.
Oddly, when I took several parkour classes they never taught falling at all. They were very good at instructing the parkour techniques, so I never took a spill, but concern for crashing-down is why I stopped learning parkour - the possibility of significant injury was too great. Had a great time doing it, but the danger was real.
Thanks a lot for the very useful guide! Too bad I marked this video to watch later the very day when I fell forward at the skate park and displaced the shoulder 😂
Just turned 36 last December! Started skated again during COVID and before that the last time I skated I think I was 14 😅. You got this homie! Best feeling ever is putting them back on. Feels like home 💚
Im a martial artist and a inline skater and i teach the same thing. Bonus tip. Get impact resistant gloves. I use full gloves that cover the whole hand, and yes, even the fingers, those are important too. Buy the ones that dirt bike riders use like Hart brand or something. Gloves and learning to fall are essential. I dont wear any other gear but i ALWAYS wear layers to avoid road rash if the worst happens. Your clothes are your armor. Yes its hot but id rather work up a sweat that a injury
Thanks, this is a really good tutorial and I will train that. What do you think of learning to roll over the shoulder and back like many freerunners do?
Absolutely! Learning to shoulder roll would be essential. Especially falling forward! Might make a video on that but would like to bring a friend in that knows waaaaay more about that than I do. I only dabble in parkour lol
Thats a tough one! My thought is to always spread as much contact as possible over the rail if i'm falling on top of it (like going left or right means death). If i have a choice i try to fall away from the rail slightly to slide or roll out on the surface if its not too treacherous. Thanks for the question! I might have to make a part 2 to this vid for things like transition and rails.🤝🙏
Awesome video. Took jujitsu classes for a long time, and bladed when I was younger and can definitely see what you’re saying. I honestly wish someone would have taught me how to fall when I was a kid instead of eating pure shit. 😂
Wish I had made the connection when I was younger too 😅. Older age and longer healing time kinda forced me to pay more attention to it so I could keep going 🤣. Thanks for watching!
Well because I fell forward and tried to use my hands to stop me. Instead, I should have pulled them in and rolled over the shoulder to dissipate the energy.
@@alexoleksa7743 ohhh wow okay, see I was looking at it from one angle. Seeing you twist your legs and hips the way you did. I was confused on how landing safely would even be possible. I didn’t think of tucking in and rolling. That seems like a better solution for less damage. 🙏🏽 good thinking. :) I’m getting my first pair of skates sometime next month or in May. 🙏🏽 luckily it’s relatively new and seems modern enough and I enjoy that. They are the Lightning 80
The impact shorts are the rippl impact shorts. However I would look into gshock pads instead because the rippl shorts did not work out. Made a video about them 😅
Here is one more tutorial idea that would be super helpful: how to jump transitions and especially how to jump higher. There are no tutorials out there that break down the different movements necessary from foot upper body.
In most of clips at the end of this video I'm riding USD Sways (Chris Farmer V1 boot). Recently just switched over to Faction Tactical V1 boots which are working much better for me so far 😅
I broke my shoulder 😢 it hurts 😢 my whole arm & chest swelled up the size of a watermelon & turned black & blue, so painful 😓😵💫 concussion had me so dizzy & wanting to puke 🤢, fun stuff

One of my best friends runs a parkour gym! I couldn’t agree more! Thanks for watching 💚

Thank you guru. Great video 🙏🏼
Very helpful
Dude this is actually great tutorial, I’ve always wondered how to teach falling, and now I know
Thanks! Hope it helps!
Thank you for the advices. You're amazing!
thanks!
Interesting, no one ever considers this topic but it is essential👏👏👏👊
Falling is the only guaranteed thing when you put wheels under your feet 😅
Thanks a lot for the very useful guide!
Too bad I marked this video to watch later the very day when I fell forward at the skate park and displaced the shoulder 😂
Wuuuuu

Yes my hand Bone break down, really painfull, this video so educate many people. Learn to fall play inline skate safety. SO EDUCATE
How do i fall when grinding on a rail? Or how would you catch yourself to not get hurt too much?
Thats a tough one! My thought is to always spread as much contact as possible over the rail if i'm falling on top of it (like going left or right means death).

This should be good 😂
Very informative actually btw, i was expecting something different 🤘
Lol no worries. I guarantee you’ll see way more falls from me in the future vids

5:02 5:31 I'm LITERALLY in the ER right now because of that. Funny how I found this video after the injury. 😅
Hope it heals fast!
The reach is a game changer that’s exactly how I shattered my wrist fell forward and braced and bam total wrist annihilation
Me too man! Broke my right wrist twice until I learned to just reach my whole arm out as cushion instead of just my palm.
My wrists are asking where have you been 😢 foward falls are the worst
That last fall where you tripped over and said it was really bad. I’m curious to know the correct way to even attempt that.
Well because I fell forward and tried to use my hands to stop me. Instead, I should have pulled them in and rolled over the shoulder to dissipate the energy.

That's awesome @@alz397 ! Hope you enjoy them!
12:44 Where are you product links, especially for the crash shorts?

Lol yep I fell on my tail bone and the bruse was there for almost a month and it hurts like he'll I was about 14 when it happened.
tailbone bruises are the worst!!!
hey alex i was wondering which blades are you riding on?
In most of clips at the end of this video I'm riding USD Sways (Chris Farmer V1 boot). Recently just switched over to Faction Tactical V1 boots which are working much better for me so far 😅
@@alexoleksa7743 thanks for a quick response, love your videos!
@@arthur-1540 thanks for the comment! Hope to have a few more soon once the weather cooperates!
I broke my shoulder 😢 it hurts 😢 my whole arm & chest swelled up the size of a watermelon & turned black & blue, so painful 😓😵💫 concussion had me so dizzy & wanting to puke 🤢, fun stuff
Yikes! I hope you’re ok!
Just drop your weight to the hip
