UGH! :( Get some skates and DO IT...you can't learn by sitting on the sidelines watching your kid! My favorite, though, is the "I'm too old to be doing that..." and when asking them how old they are...if they tell me...they're younger than me! OY! It's never too late to learn! :)

Fast forward to now, living in Arizona, I've been inspired by you to pick up a pair of skates again. The wife has been asking what I want for my birthday this year, so I sent her a link to some new skates. I just wanted to say thank you for all of your videos, I've always questioned how to do some of the more intricate movements that you'd see the pro's doing and you make it look effortless and offer all the information/knowledge for free with the most amazing attitude and love for the sport! I could and have spent hours watching your videos and I learn something new each and every time! Thanks for all you do!!!

    I'm French , 49 years old and when I was young I did little bit of Roller but never kept on. The other day while I was walking my dogs in Pessac close by Bordeaux I saw a super nice place to lurn. So I looked for a pair of Roller Quad .
    I surched on RUclipss many tuttos and I found you!!!!
    OOOOOOh you are just so fantastic on explaining, movements, weight, transfers...
    I love your energy, positivism, your way to teach help sooooo much and you are way far funnyer then french tutto 🤣🤣🤣
    I lurn so much in 3 days only and I understand so much more every mistake that I make because you give all the explanation on everything.
    So I wanted juste to thank you so much !!!
    It makes me soooo happy.
    Now that I found you, I want to lurn more and more.
    Thank you Deborah!🙏
    I 'll keep watching all your videos and lurn.
    Hug from France.

    Dirty, ice skater here with a pandemic thirst for skating. Roller skating is it - two weeks ago I bought my first pair of outdoor roller skates. After 3 days I found my edges by doing figure eights in my driveway in a space that is maybe 10 x 10. Little tiny steps is all it took for me to feel and discover those wonderful edge. It’s almost effortless now, skates are broken in and I can roller skate in style - just love it. Can’t believe how much fun this is. Thank you so much for posting the videos of outdoor skating - definitely different techniques required - “down with the butt and up with the gut” to get over those rough patches. This technique looks so similar to telemarking on cross country skis. It’s all the same, skiing down hill or cross country, ice skating, running and yes even walking., We are humans with two legs and naturally we go side to side and with skates you get that rhythm going with some plié and it’s skating from within - pure selfless expression. Thank you Dirty, for showing us the way.

    As a new skater in her (late) 50’s, I thought that maybe I just couldn’t do them (skating since late October). I was having some (minimal) success but still quite uncomfortable and nervous until I watched this tutorial today, the first day of 2021. I had a go while watching your video and it almost instantly clicked, I CAN DO THEM AND DO THEM EASILY!!!

    Hi Deb! I don't know how often you review these comments but I love watching your techniques. I've watched more recent ones and left a comment on one you responded to. I'm the one who fell last November and hurt myself pretty bad. I've healed now and back to skating. I've passed your skills on to others, especially children. It's been fun. My legs are strengthening in spite of a loss of cartilage in my right knee. The more I skate the less my knee hurts. But you are right about practicing. One must practice, practice, practice. I have a garage to practice in good weather days. Summer days are too hot. Today was 103 degrees making it too hot in the garage. Anyway, hope you find time to comment. I did sign up on Instagram but I don't know how to use it. Never was much for social media.

    The best skating instructor on RUclips. I guess, this lady is an excellent ice skater, maybe even her first discipline. I am a seasoned ice skater but some of techniques are still hard for me, including Mohawk. Thank you very much. I started thinking about rollers, not yet decided which type to try, blades or quads. Quads look more fun and esthetically pleasing, and much closer to ice skates than blades.

    hooray, I finally got front-to-back transitions TONIGHT!!! THIS video got me 1/2 way there last week practicing on a circle at the rink in the middle, but I couldn't quite get it all the way- I kept coming to a T-stop somehow- but the weight transfers and the edges on the circle really helped prepare. Tonight I tried rolling back and forth in front of my kitchen bar, opening my shoulder towards the bar, and somehow that physical barrier made my brain click that it was the bar-side leg I needed to pick up instead of the other one. all this time I've been thinking I was picking up the correct first foot, but I wasn't! (DOH!) so it clicked, and I was able to roll through about 50 transitions back and forth immediately. Deb, you ROCK! Thank you for teaching the internet how to skate. you just opened up my world of outdoor adventure skating- now I can finally progress to the turnaround toe-stop, so I can use those toestop-hill descents I've been practicing in real life situations and leave the safety of the trails to start going out in (quiet) neighborhoods. Thank you!

    i started skating a little while ago, i bought skates in quarantine. i loved your little speech about how it’s important to respect the basic skills and movements. as a beginner i find that so important, really getting good at the simple beginnings of skating before i move on to more difficult moves. thanks to your videos i’m finally able to do more interesting tricks, like mohawks, and i love skating!!! ❤️❤️❤️

It came back to me naturally I absolutely love it!!!! I'm learning new things and love watching you and indie! You both have inspired me! I have a little girl who will be 5 soon and she loves skating so much already. Keep making skating fun and inspiring new sk8ers through you videos! Later sk8er!

    Thank you so much for these videos. I’m 62 and haven’t skated in years, I repeat years! Joined some Facebook groups with the intention of selling my old school skates. Now I just want to skate again. Rinks are a little scary, but I am going to skate around my driveway soon! If it goes well, I’ll hit some flat park trails.
