      Fantastic. New skates are the best! Have lots of fun! I have a couple of videos on adjusting skates and checks to make on new skates. Make sure you check the wheels are rolling freely and the toe stops are nice and tight before you head out. Most importantly have fun and stay safe.

    Thanks so much for these! I’ve always self taught (ie learn by falling) so seeing how to do these things properly is a huge help! I’m doing my first outdoor skating, and it’s a whole new world from the rink skating I’ve done in the past. Your videos are a great reference for when I’m out and try to do anything new (or figure out what I’m doing wrong)
    Your videos are also very cheerful and uplifting, so I don’t feel bad when I mess up or wipe out. All part of learning, right?😆
    Thanks to these videos I feel far less lost, and more excited to actually get in my skates and keep learning!

      Why couldn't we have had youtube back in the 80s? Would've made skating in your garage (where you don't have much room) a lot more productive. Though I didn't realize it at the time, I was putting on my skates and more or less going "ok now what? I guess I'll just skate in circles". You can practice balance, feet position, stopping, etc. Which then gives you more technique when at the rink. Rinks are not really practical for practicing because of all the people. I think I might just get my own pair and go to a parking garage for that. Don't have a garage anymore. Sigh.

You said in your video that a big skate is a bad idea but how big? 1cm or less bigger would be OK? I'm between sizes and it's complicated 😮.

    • @Skatie

      Hi. If it helps I skate in a 255mm and my feet measure 248mm. I’d say a 10mm gap would be ok if you’re between sizes.

    Hi :) I have a question about my sizing:
    I wear a size 8.5f-9f for shoes, but the skates I got only came in mens sizes so I got a 7 (8.5f)
    Was it a good idea to get them the same as my shoe size? Or should I have gone smaller because I imagine they'll stretch?

    • @Skatie
      @Skatie  2 года назад

      For skate sizing the best thing to do is measure your foot and compare that measurement to the brands sizing chart as skate size differs from street shoes.

      For skates the best way to get the correct size is to draw around your foot on a piece of paper. Make sure you’re standing up and then measure the longest part. Then see what size the manufacturer recommends based on your measurement.

      Ouch. I feel your pain. It happens to everyone occasionally. I have an outtake of me flying backwards. 😢. I’ve recently made a video for exercises off skates to help get muscle memory for falls. Always stay really bent in the knee and weight on the ball of your foot. You can invest in some bum / hip pads. They’re like a padded cycling shorts definitely cushion the blow. 🛼

    Hiii, I've came back with a question about sizing. My rollers are 270mm. My feet are 262mm and because they're wide I can't get a smaller size. It's a big difference?

    • @Skatie
      @Skatie  2 года назад +1

      Skate sizing can be so hard. Lots of people recommend the suregrip boardwalks for wider feet. You can also use different lacing patterns to relieve pressure on painful points of the foot. If a boot is too long it can put your weight on slightly the wrong part of the skate which can make learning a little tricky and cause foot pain from curling toes etc.

    • @Skatie
      @Skatie  2 года назад

      This is a really important question. Skates fit differently to shoes they need to be quite snug to give you the control you need. Stand on a piece of paper and have someone draw around your feet then measure the longest part. Then if you visit the manufacture website of the skates you’re interested in match the mm measured on the paper to the size guide. This gives a much more accurate fit.
