Thank you so much for this video! I watched several videos from different people and you were the only one who suggested putting hands on knees and that worked well for me to start dropping in. I finally was able to drop in for my first time yesterday because of that and now I can confidently drop in every time!
I have asked a lot of skaters this question. Never got a good answer until I saw this video. I can do embankments. I can do jump turns and skate the pro bowls. I can skate backwards...most of the time lol. But I still can't bring myself to drop in off a coping. This video has helped me get some great tools and I am hitting the park tomorrow to try it out.
I’m about to start agressive skating after 20 years.. I remember I used to be able to do 180s and 360s from the top as I’m bout to drop in lol. I already know I’m going to fall on my ass when I try to drop in for the first time because I forgot the feeling of how to react when dropping into a ramp
Dropped in for the first time in blades today and got smoked! So much harder than in a skateboard, but I’m gonna get it soon! The first tip about confidence was the hardest part and that’s what got me. I was afraid of hanging up so instead of stepping in I jumped in and basically went to flat
I get my first pair of agressive inlines soon! I marathon skate, inline hockey and just cruise yet skateparks still frighten me but i'm so keen to start! Thanks for this info mate!
On my second day skating I tried dropping, and what I did was just going for it, confident, kind like doing exactly what you told not to do... Wish I had seen this before... I fell back...
Good to see new content is still dropping. But Ricardo I think you need a part 2 on balance while dropping in. New bladers in my experience always lean too far back. I think it is important to talk about putting your weight into the ramp so you don't fall on your bum haha
Beginner inliner. Just yesterday I went to skatepart for the first time and couldn't do ramps. Just the flat ones. Its just so scary!! I can go 20 miles in the city!! Cant do a simple ramp made for this sport!! 😒😒🤣🤣 I'll keep practicing tho. Thanks for sharing the knowledge!! Deus abençoe!
Cool video Lino, you explain all this stuff very well, I skated my first ramps a few weeks ago, it's a lot of fun! I did the same as you did on the video, rolling forwards up it and rolling back, to get used to it. By the way I think most ppl like tutorials on the basics also, and it helps us pass it on too!
I picked up skating this year and all I can say is: Don't worry about other people around you, they were once falling and hurting themselves when they first started skating Today even a girl in her car drove past me and said, "you should skateboard instead" Sorry honey.. I'm wheel addict 😈
I from poland, but i live in niderland my last driving on rolleskates, at 12 years ago ... But never before i dont make it ... But i must try on my next one, thanks for this video
Thanks, Ricardo, I´m going to try it, again and again. your explications are very clear, I understand despite don't even speak English. Saludos de Chile.
Hi Ricordo, vielen Dank für deine tollen Videos. Sie erleichtern mir den Wiedereinstieg nach 20 Jahren Abstinenz in den Skateszene. VG aus Deutschland. Hi Ricordo, thank you for your great videos. They make it easier for me to get back into the skate scene after 20 years of abstinence. Greetings from Germany.
I really need to practice doing this. I'm a quad skater, so I'm used to stepping one foot after the other. So when I drop in, I balance one foot on the coping and step in. But I will practice more when my wrist heals!
This is so great! Thank you. The part about getting confident next to the coping will be something I spend time with. I get nervous when putting the middle of my skates on the coping, because I skate with freestyle skates, 80 mm wheels, no grind block. I worry that I will just slip off the coping. But I'll give it a go.
Wow, y'all, I can't imagine ramps and pipes with larger than 80 for myself. I tried aggressive skates with smaller wheels (K2 Unnaturals) and they felt like wearing concrete shoes, so I sold them. Maybe I'll try some other aggressives? Aeons?
Just want to say thank you for all of you and your team's hard work! It is truly inspiring to see your channel/video production quality/shop/brand grow. I learned to skate before i could bike, but stopped for a while in my teens. I picked it back up after a few years of living in NYC, but unfortunately there aren't any inline skate shops in the city, so your channel was really a big help in getting me back into it, especially moving from the hockey skates I had to a big wheel setup. Anyway, I've been slowly trying to improve my stopping/sliding and have started to skate around a few parks on a 3x110 setup. Just curious if you had any tips for 3 wheel setups in a park. I love the Mushroom blading/Shop Task guys in Canada, but they're waaaaaay above my skill/comfort, but they are also very inspiring. Anyway, thought it could be a cool idea to see what you might do in a park on 3 wheels. Also thinking of getting the Endless Blade Co 3X110/4x90 setup, so I'm eeagerly awaiting whenever you drop that video. Thanks again Lino for all you do, and shout out to Janice and the rest of the team too! Also, really wish I could find that Wynflon Mo was talking about in the bearing video...No luck in America
I learnt with 1 foot on the coping and the other stepping over it. I only tried it your way for the first time last week, and it felt very unstable with all my weight on my heels. I'm riding a 4 wheel setup so maybe that's why. What are the pros/cons of this way VS how I learnt?
I did it 😁 now the challenge is going up the ramp. I'm reaching it in a kneeling position. A friend of mine showed me how to do it with one leg first but the fear of falling backwards while going up is still there.
Th anks! THat was great. DO you have a video for a larger ramp? My friend has a steep tight ramp I'm trying my 3 110 PS and got rekt last time... until I get some new wheels/skates.
You must be a teacher or something like that (if not, think about it!). The way you explain is very simple and inspiring, although the subject isn't necessarily easy for everyone. Great job!
I had a bad accident with my snowbaord a couple of years agow and i broke my clavicle and got 4 operations on it and i had a bad surgery and the doctors told me i could neven skate or do something like that again but its in my blood i have feel very depressed sins then no i wanna try it again and flip the finger tho the doctors today i went back to a skate park after being many years abcent i try do to the drop with my roces skates and landed bad on my back bone because i think i lost my balls because of my accident i am not giving up i will try again as soon as my backbone doesnt hurt anymore i will try your methode of holding my hand on my knies i see how that gows i love to see you clips and hope i get my balls back like i used to have wen i was small i drop from the biggest ramps i could find now the smallest one i fall flat mt girlfriend is very supportive and said to me you stil got your balls at least you try it over and over again and she is proud of me but i think of myself as a dissapointment
I remember in 2013 I bought a 80$ pair of skates from Walmart or target to get me to and from work, it was a cheap skate and super fun to commute, then I passed a skate park and learned how to go into the bowl and ramps, I could not really break due to being self taught so I stopped before I hurt myself but I’m considering buying a higher priced skate, Any suggestions for city skate, skatepark/ indoor skating rink blades?
i drop in at a 2m half pipe but i put 1 foot on the coping with the grove and the other foot on the coping but between the first weel and the grind wheel. is that a problem
My park doesn’t have coping. It’s mostly quarters and pools with just smooth concrete where the coping would be. My skates won’t lock at the edge of the ramp so I end up jumping in (or getting nervous and not dropping in more often.) any suggestions.
this was a good video. though i haven’t tried dropping in yet bc i felt like i should be able to pump in a quarterpipe first, and pumping from backwards was giving me trouble when i first went to a skate park. i haven’t been able to get to one in a good while so i haven’t been able to practice :/
Hi Ricardo. I'm 50 years young and been at the skate park for six weeks of my 2 and a bit years blading.I can go up and down the quarter pips fine do 180 turn to go back down , small jumps and slowly getting to air the spine but that's where my problem is I have had a couple of good falls fracturing my spine and almost dislocating my shoulder but that wasn't at the park but coming down the quarter pipe backwards I'm still a bit sketchy when I get to fast, I'm pushing my leading foot back when I go fakie but just don't feel to confident with it.I do everything on both left and right foot to get strong on both sides but can't overcome the sketchiness I feel with speed or jumping into fakie is also a problem. do I just need to keep practicing or is there something else that can help, I watch your and so many other blading tutorial videos which I absolutely love and wouldn't be able to rollerblade without them I am practicing so much but my one weakness is that sketchiness jumping into fakie (oh sorry the jumping into fakie is ok except from heights) but the speed coming down the higher quarter pipes I panic. Thanks Darren
When you roll fast forward you will have a dominant leg that goes to the front, and the other to the back in a wide staggered stance. Practice rolling up ramps, and then back down fakie maintaining the same position. Do not switch leg position. You should be able to do this without looking over your shoulder. Until you are comfortable, I would avoid looking over your shoulder when going fakie fast as your body may twist making you trip over your skates. SkateAsha and AcostaBlades channels also have good tutorials on ramps and skating backwards. Hip pads are also useful in park riding. 👍
I used to do this type of skating with my aggresive skates...I'm wondering if it would be very difficult with my slalom skates with the banana rocker to go down a ramp when you're only on 2 wheels
I havent dropped in yet, but doing ramps, jumps and so on is no problem with a banana. A bit harder to balance maybe, but you are likely already used to it.
@@RicardoLino I have my feet full of blisters due to way too long sessions on rollerskates. I have been practicing a more "artistic rollerskating approach" to improve my balance and my feet are paying for it rn.
I don’t have that thing next to the middle wheel with yours you can’t see the whole wheel but my wheels are fully visible can I still stand on the metal thing without falling
I'm such a wimp, my ramp wasn't even steep or fast. Barely 4 metres tall... and I chickened out so bad. I put my foot on the coping like you said and stayed there for a bit and felt comfortable next to the edge, but dropping in terrifies me. Last time I dropped in, I had a bad head injury and had a horrible concussion and memory loss, that was WITH a helmet. So every time I try to drop in now, even on small ramps, all I see is the white flash I saw when I hit my head last time.
Yes you can. Just put the skates so that the coping is between the middle wheels. It is actually basically the same, just follow the great instructions in the video. :)
@@mvk2053 you're welcome. 🙂 I actually learned it this summer, and I used the same progression that Ricardo is showing here. It worked really well and it helped me get past the fear I felt when standing there on the edge. 😊 so just follow his advice, and you will be dropping in no time. 😀
Dude you're a legend!!; Thank you soon much for helping me do my first drop in!!! Can't explain how awesome it felt 😀
Hands on the knees never fails!
love the content. been back to skating for 3 months now! aggressive/fitness. officially a wheel addict again! 40 pounds lighter and in great shape!
Wow just amazing I may not knwo you but that is just amazing! So proud of you
Nice 🙏
Did you get lighter by skating or ?
You are my favorite

This worked great for me...3rd day at the park and I got my first drop in 😁
Thanks man! Great tips. I know how to drop in but my son is just starting out. That idea of putting your hands on your knees is gold!
Thank you soo much. It took me a few tries to get it, and get used to the angle and change of the ramp, but once I got it, it was easy.
I from poland, but i live in niderland my last driving on rolleskates, at 12 years ago ... But never before i dont make it ... But i must try on my next one, thanks for this video

Glad you made this for new people, my friend is just starting to learn how to do ramps and quarter pipes and this is perfect for her!
Quick question, will brakes affect dropping in on ramps?
I just got aggressives yesterday but I was already dropping into ramps with my Imperial One 80s so this video was just to help me clean up, thank you!
This is so great! Thank you. The part about getting confident next to the coping will be something I spend time with. I get nervous when putting the middle of my skates on the coping, because I skate with freestyle skates, 80 mm wheels, no grind block. I worry that I will just slip off the coping.

Same with me: freestyle skates, but with 84mm wheels.
I got 90mm

Just fully send it and lean forward until you are confident 😂 just landed mine yesterday after so many failures
I shall try it.. Thanks for great advice.
Hi Ricardo, absolutely love your content. Could you do a video of how to drop in fakie?
Hi, this is great content. Thanks!
Please could you do a video on how to exit a bowl. That one seems next to impossible to master.
Th
anks! THat was great. DO you have a video for a larger ramp? My friend has a steep tight ramp I'm trying my 3 110 PS and got rekt last time... until I get some new wheels/skates.
I teach it just as you said. Thanks Lino.
This wqs great cant wait to try it out and build my confidence
The best ASRM skates lessons congrats
So great teaching! More of those. Huge fan of your work. What are the inlineskate you wear on the video?

You are very inspirational, thank you for the lessons!
Great tutorial Ricardo! Thank you! Happy New Year to all skaters!
Did this today and i also jumped in went good
Trying tomorrow. Thank you!
Legal Ricardo, muito claro nas suas explicações. Quando eu estiver na minha primeira rampa, vou lembrar de você. Hugs from Brazil.
Hey, I know it's not ideal but I own tri-skates how would I drop in, specifically how would I balance my weight on the metal bar/"coping" ?
Got my self a back protector so I can go full send without fear 😃
😂 love it 😂
Great advice, thank you 😊
Aaaahhh I wish I had this video months ago. I kept trying to jump in and hurt myself many times.
Ow, are you OK mate?
Melroy van den Berg hehehe I sprained my wrist pretty bad. It won’t be back to normal for a looooong time. Bruised my hips pretty bad t∞.
Can you do this with any type of inline skates or only aggressive inline skates?
Does anyone know what skates are those? They look like something I'm looking for right now? Thanks!
Is it a bad idea to skate ramps in 4 wheel skates, like the Adapt GT? Obviously no grinding, but can it still be done?
I remember in 2013 I bought a 80$ pair of skates from Walmart or target to get me to and from work, it was a cheap skate and super fun to commute, then I passed a skate park and learned how to go into the bowl and ramps, I could not really break due to being self taught so I stopped before I hurt myself but I’m considering buying a higher priced skate,

I havent dropped in yet, but doing ramps, jumps and so on is no problem with a banana. A bit harder to balance maybe, but you are likely already used to it.
Can you do this with typical inlines where there is no space to grind?

might?? you better be reading this with the skates on, on the way to the park :)

can i use slalom inline skate , to do ramp
My roller blades have big wheels all the way across, how do I go over coping on those?
Thanks I’ll try that
Nice video, good job!
One question: Where did you get Rollerblade SOLO ERA in 2020? The skates boot looks completely new.
Thank you so much
How do you know which foot you should put forward?

Can u do a U ramp? And show us, I tried and I fall backwards
Thanks Ricardo
It’s not basic for me lol
very helpful but i think i need more help with shifting my weight while going down the ramp
And how can we jump in?
How to make a 360 on inline skate in moviment?
