  • How to carve on roller skates. In this video I breakdown the fundamentals of how to carve and demonstrate some drills that can help you if you are struggling with technique. Note, for this tutorial I am switching my leading leg when carving but not all skaters do this. Do whatever is most comfortable for you.
    Being able to pump will help with carving especially in bowls and big half pipes. You can check out my How to Pump video here: • How to Pump on Roller ...

    New inline skater here. I've watched several of your vids and they're very helpful already. Almost did a full 360 first try without skates on and hittin a park later today so watchin your bowl/vert vids too. The quad knowledge translates seamlessly since we simply use diff stabilizers. Love how you explain things logically, and EDIT to make vids concise af. No time wasted.

    Def the best tutorial I have found on youtube. Taught step by step with concrete examples and how to practice. Far too many of the other tutorials use amorph language to teach like "use your body to turn" and "just let your body do it" Wait what does that mean ...use your body? LOL dont i always use my body or am i using crutches to turn ? Some tutorials here on youtube need to first learn how to teach. This one anyway is super helpful. Each tutorial is prepared with attention to details and thoughtfulness. Thanks so much!

    Would you recommend loosening up your trucks to be able to turn better for carving? I can't tell if my issue with carving is my trucks being too tight or me not leaning enough 🤔

    • @ShortysSkateSeries
      @ShortysSkateSeries  Год назад

      Are you trying to carve wide or tight? Carving on a ramp is different to on flat. For me, carving on a ramp I will pivoting on my back wheels carving forward or front wheels is carving backwards. I do not reply of the action of my trucks and lean into turns are that can cause you to slip out

    @daniellesmith4321 3 года назад

    I know I’m late to this but...when I try to carve on a transition, I feel like I get really unstable (if I go too high or too fast) or sometimes “fall off” the transition (if I go too slow and lose momentum). Anyone have any advice? I’m considering switching to wide trucks. Not sure if that would help or make it harder to turn?
    Thanks so much for the tutorial! This is the first video that mentioned lifting the front trucks, and that alone has been super helpful.

    hi Shorty, I've seen people carving left , staggered leg with right leg leading. Is that possible? i am still new , i guess i just have to try out which way works for me

    • @ShortysSkateSeries
      @ShortysSkateSeries  3 года назад +1

      Yes it’s possible. I’ve seen a lot of skaters do this as they don’t want to change the leading leg when they carve left and right. You will need to use the pivot turn method to help you turn. Remember to pump into the transition as it will make the turn easier than if you just coast.

  • @ericako7364
    @ericako7364 3 года назад

    I love your detailed explanations! A question for you, I'm used to instinctively turning the way by body is opened (so counterclockwise when right is leading and left is behind), but I see most beginner turning videos and your carving video show the opposite (turning clockwise when right is leading) - could you explain why that works better, or feels more natural for you? Thanks!!

    • @ShortysSkateSeries
      @ShortysSkateSeries  3 года назад +1

      Good question! It's really a personal preference, and for me it feels more natural. The way I explain in the video, I can pivot my inner/leading leg first and the outer/trailing leg just follows. But if I do it the opposite way (especially for tight turns) I find my outer/leading leg cuts in front of my inner/trailing leg before it can turn and it becomes a little awkward.

    • @ericako7364
      @ericako7364 3 года назад

      @@ShortysSkateSeries Thanks! I don't think I've ever heard any talk about pivoting on their heels before when carving and turning - but I could totally see how it would work when I practiced the drills on the flat. Looking forward to trying it on the ramp!

  • @quitegoodandawesome5964
    @quitegoodandawesome5964 3 года назад

    When carving, or even earlier when say just practicing figure eights, should weight be balanced between both feet? Or is the outer or inner foot taking more of the weight on a turn? I hope that questions makes sense. 😊. I think I tend to put my weight on my inside foot when turning on a figure eight, but think when carving it’s supposed to be more on your outside/higher foot?

    • @ShortysSkateSeries
      @ShortysSkateSeries  3 года назад +1

      For me I have my weight pretty evenly distributed, maybe a little more in my back foot for both craving and figure eights. But the weight distribution in my front/ inside skate, I have a lot of weight/ pressure in my heel so I can lift my toes to make tighter turns. If that makes sense.
