This might be the best tutorial for backwards skating I’ve seen, and trust me I’ve watched several. This is great, thank you! Brb going to practice! Lol
Wasn't impressed with this one,she claims you have to know bubbles first before you roll backwards and that'd not true because I can't do bubbles yet but I'm now goin backwards because of sideZwipe tutorial
Day 21 here! It’s so crazy to see the progress when you skate at least 30 minutes every day. I went from falling like every time I go out to T stopping and kind of skating backwards( I also only know how to bubble backwards)!
Cody that’s so cool ! I really want to skate better. I am going to skate every day. Before getting my skates I was so anxious about “can ı skate or can I even stand in them? “ but I think I did some progress even in 2 days. I hope that we all skate better.
3:50 The pain is due to using the wrong muscles (I had the same problrm). It's really about using your edges to make bubbles efficiently by leaning your feet either inwards and outwards. Make sure your trucks are loosened up and your cushions aren't too hard.
This is the best step-by-step tutorial I've seen so far. A lot of backwards skating videos are just 'do a backwards bubble and then move your hips and voila!'. The carving with one foot was really very helpful. Thanks, Rebel! I know it's your literal job, but you are a great teacher.
Lol sorry it was all out of love ! I think most people say it and it sounds like comf-tuhble 😂 idk ,maybe I was just too focused on the instructions I noticed it
I remember the first time I heard someone pronounce it as Rebel does. It was on TV. I am also from California (north) so it's interesting Rebel pronounces it like that. Anyway, after I heard it like that the first time I did some googling and this word tends to have some debate. Ultimately I learned it's regional/preferential, but a lot of people say kumfterbl because it flows better. The same reason most people don't say veh-jeh-tah-blz, it's usually vejtblz (vegetables).
I love your advice ladies! I just back on skates at 48 after 20 yrs and just realized I’m only doing half the work skating backwards after watching this 🙁 Bubbles on my left foot and not the right! I need to keep up my practicing 👍🏻💕🤗 Thank you Rebel!
This makes me feel so much better. Most videos skip from backwards bubbles straight into "now you can backwards skate" - now I know to practice those one-legged bubbles first! I wondered why it was so hard to get the flow of two feet
i just found you and you are the best teacher ever!! i have watched a million chanels for backward skating and nooone worked. You are awesome!! Thank you for existing! Also please come to greece! I want to skate with you! haha
ive been watching so many of these videos and this one is by FAR the most helpful, none of the other ones told me i needed to do the half bubbles, they went from bubbles to backwards stepping, thank you!!
I watched a lot of other people's videos about how to skate backwards, but your video was the one that clicked for me. Nicely ordered and detailed. Practicing those bubbles really helped, as well as knowing where to put my weight going through the maneuver. I have been making good progress. Thank you.
i love the reassurance and support you give. it’s currently winter and the snow makes it hard to skate outside. so skating inside at a rink is the best option and sometimes it’s discouraging bc people are so good and skate so smoothly, but i’m still learning and i need that reminder. thank you!
this is the most informative backwards skating video i've seen on here so far! a lot of them started right off with bubbles. This didn't seem that difficult in theory since i'm comfortable skating forward/bubbling forward. But starting right off there has been so hard and confusing on my muscles. I can't wait to try all of these steps to work up to it! Thank you so much! Your channel has helped me get back into skating :)
Finally found the perfect quad skate professor on this thing I call University of RUclips. I started your tutorials yesterday and Ive already learned so much. I bought my skates in May &realize I’m not a kid anymore! So I got discouraged after busting my knee forgot my pads that day 😆 🤦🏽♀️. So I stopped until about 2weeks ago. Still more terrified then terrible lol but after watching your videos I haven’t stopped trying. Today is Day 3 and I’m still going because of you!
Thank you posting this vid!! I recently started roller skating and this popped up JUST in time I wanted to learn skating backwards. Your tutorial is so clear and love that you broke everything down :)
After years of wanting skates because of how much I enjoyed it as a girl, I finally ordered some and I AM SO EXCITED, also your makeup in this vid is just giving me life
I taught myself as a kid to skate backwards in a circle. Did the cross over with my feet. Leaning to skate forward really well before trying it backwards is how I learned. I remember when kids skated everyday outside and it just came naturally to us. I miss it so much as a kid.
Thank you for this video! I can't tell you how many videos I've watched on rollerskating backwards and NONE helped me until this one! I was able to bubble backwards TONIGHT! THANK YOU REBEL!
Been bingeing your channel for a good month now and you've inspired me to get skates. Thank you for being a such an amazing creator! Happy Pride! P.S. Both you and Shove are beautiful💕
I am getting my first pair of skates after 20 years of no skating. I am excited, nervous and scared. my daughter is all mom you told me the same things about skating. I know I can do this. Your videos are super practical
I can't skate now so I'm watching your videos to get my fix. Three weeks ago I managed 4 laps backwards around my favorite parking lot. Moments later, feeling triumphant, I broke my leg going forward. So bummed, can't wait to get back into it and put your great instructions to use. Liked and subscribed!
I just ordered my first pair of skates and they are coming next week. Im so excited to get them but also really nervous because I live in Scotland and most of the ground is cracked or not flat. I have been watching your videos for a while now and im going to re-watch them all when I get my skates!
omg hi im from scotland! the ground here is so bumpy and cracked but my advice is to go round your whole neighbourhood to try and find 1 road that has smoother ground because chances are that theres at least 1! best of luck to you!!
This was so good advice! I have just got the hang of striding forwards! I'm on week 2 of skating and this channel has boosted my confidence! Thanks Rebel!! 🤗
OMG ! Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video ! This has helped me so much with learning backwards skating. I'm kind of a mediocre skater that haven't skated in a couple of years so forward skating was not a problem but boy backwards skating was horrible...I could not keep momentum for nothing. But now now now, I got the concept...yes ! Thank you. You are very much appreciated.♥️♥️♥️‼️
Thank you for this video, and especially for the pep talk at the end! I keep trying and I haven't gotten the hang of it yet, which feels so discouraging even though I know practice will help me get there. Gonna try again today!!
Best step by step tutorial for backwards skating. thank you for making this easy to understand and learn!! just subscribed, and looking forward to watching your other videos
thank you so much for this!! couldn't learn from any other video, this one was amaaazing and i could really feel my body like.... WORKING lol🥰🥰 loved it!
That looks like my grandma and grandads ( and dads ) neighborhood in Long Beach that they lived in . They lived on Mc Nabb off of Harco off of Woodruff....however there are like 50 blocks that look just like this lol I miss all 3 of them so much 😢 though I miss them this video brought back good memories of me roller skating there and I loved it bc my neighborhood in the SouthBay of LA had a ton of hills lol which were cool but it was fun to effortlessly skate without having to worry about hills cars etc . Awesome video ❤💯
Rebel, you are the greatest skate teacher of all time! This is going to help me stop doing a penguin waddle when I go backwards, thank you so much! PS your brows are 🔥
Thank u so much for mentioning the pain lol I felt like I wasn't gunna be able to do stuff cuz they hurt but now I know its cuz im new and need to build up those muscles
thank you so much for this! by far the most easy to follow and informative backwards skate tutorial i’ve watched. it makes so much more sense now and i think i finally realized what i’ve been doing wrong :-)
I love your videos because even when I already think I’ve mastered a skill, you teach it in a way that I’ve never thought about it and it helps me improve even more. Love you and Shove, thank you for inspiring me💜
Omggggg a lot of things make sense now on why I'm having such a hard time going backwards! Thank you! P.S. what wheels are you using/recommend for outdoors that's a little harder than the Moxi gummy wheels?
Is there a video on crossing backwards? I’m going to look for it!! I feel like I’ve mastered these steps already but this was a really good tutorial.👍🏼❤️
Your tutorials are great thanks! I’ve only been skating for about three days so far. I’m struggling with forward bubbles for some reason ☹️ skating fine, bubbles not so much! X

This might be the best tutorial for backwards skating I’ve seen, and trust me I’ve watched several. This is great, thank you!
Brb going to practice!
Lol
Agreed! It finally makes sense :)
I was about to say the same!! It's the best deconstructed step by step video I have seen!! :D
I completely agree, she teaches better and it makes more sense
Wasn't impressed with this one,she claims you have to know bubbles first before you roll backwards and that'd not true because I can't do bubbles yet but I'm now goin backwards because of sideZwipe tutorial
@@optimisticrealismx5829 everyone learns differently. Bubbles do make this method easier.
Yay can't wait! I'm on day 37 of my moxi skate daily challenge, I am able to do backwards bubbles but that's it!
That’s awesome I’m on day 3 and I still feel like a baby goat lmao
Sherrice Pelle ı am on day 3 too but I couldn’t skate today :(
Day 21 here! It’s so crazy to see the progress when you skate at least 30 minutes every day. I went from falling like every time I go out to T stopping and kind of skating backwards( I also only know how to bubble backwards)!
Cody that’s so cool ! I really want to skate better. I am going to skate every day. Before getting my skates I was so anxious about “can ı skate or can I even stand in them? “ but I think I did some progress even in 2 days. I hope that we all skate better.
Cody buy the way what skate u are using ?
This may be odd but I love how you enunciate comfortable
I was totally freaking out when my thighs started hurting I thought I pulled something. Good thing I watched this video to know it normal 😊😊
Yep! You are normal!
Omg same!!
3:50 The pain is due to using the wrong muscles (I had the same problrm). It's really about using your edges to make bubbles efficiently by leaning your feet either inwards and outwards. Make sure your trucks are loosened up and your cushions aren't too hard.

Never heard someone say “comfortable” so correctly before- lol love you guys ! Thanks for the video
This sparked an entire conversation between me and Shove! I didn't even know people said it differently!
Lol sorry it was all out of love ! I think most people say it and it sounds like comf-tuhble 😂 idk ,maybe I was just too focused on the instructions I noticed it
@MrsDiamondd this made me realize I say it wrong lol! I pronounce it cumf-tur-bull
I remember the first time I heard someone pronounce it as Rebel does. It was on TV. I am also from California (north) so it's interesting Rebel pronounces it like that. Anyway, after I heard it like that the first time I did some googling and this word tends to have some debate.

“All Shakira up in this biznatch” This is exactly what i’ll remember when I go to try this 😂😂😂
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
😂 samee
this was so informative!! I've never understood other videos about backwards skating before!
Thanks!
I just learned how to "skate" backwards but can only carve with 1 leg lol. Going out today to practice! You da best.
GIRL I’ve been trying to figure this out for WEEKS no tutorials were making sense to me and you explained so perfectly, I just finally did it!!!
I'm improving with my backwards skating everyday! This evening I was very impressed with how well I am progressing. I am so stoked!
Yessss! Killing it!
This makes me feel so much better. Most videos skip from backwards bubbles straight into "now you can backwards skate" - now I know to practice those one-legged bubbles first! I wondered why it was so hard to get the flow of two feet
yesssssss! I'm glad I could help!
Living for the “bubble pop electric” reference- that was buried deep down!
i just found you and you are the best teacher ever!! i have watched a million chanels for backward skating and nooone worked. You are awesome!! Thank you for existing! Also please come to greece! I want to skate with you! haha

Ever since the indie scandal, I didn’t have very much skating inspired, but then I found your channel and I’m on a roll!
Thank you posting this vid!! I recently started roller skating and this popped up JUST in time I wanted to learn skating backwards. Your tutorial is so clear and love that you broke everything down :)
Thank you for posting this! Thanks to your video I actually skated backwards for like 5 strides yesterday. I know I’m gonna get there
After years of wanting skates because of how much I enjoyed it as a girl, I finally ordered some and I AM SO EXCITED, also your makeup in this vid is just giving me life

7:20 is where I needed to know how to start!! This is bringing back memeories from middle school learning to backwards skate at the rink 🤭🥰
This is a super solid explanation of this skill, and I really, really appreciate you taking the time to make this for us! Thank you!
so glad I found your channel! your explanation makes the most sense to me.
Same

Explaining it as a one foot bubble was SO helpful! Thank you! Love you!
Thank you so much for this video, you had me at WHAT'S UP EVERYBODY 😅can't get enough of your happy vibes
Thank you for your videos. I am almost 50 YO and just started roller skating.... It's a lot, not learning very fast LOL! I won't give up!
This is undoubtedly the best informative backward skate tutorial I've ever been able to understand. Thanks love y'all
I just ordered my first pair of skates and they are coming next week. Im so excited to get them but also really nervous because I live in Scotland and most of the ground is cracked or not flat. I have been watching your videos for a while now and im going to re-watch them all when I get my skates!

Kirsten Plays piano yeah my city is like that too. I am going to basketball areas :(
You're going to be awesome!
Sooo true... What's wrong with asphalt in Scotland??
Are there any tennis courts nearby?? Super smooth there!
You are literally the best teacher! Straight to the point and very easy to learn from
This was so good advice! I have just got the hang of striding forwards! I'm on week 2 of skating and this channel has boosted my confidence! Thanks Rebel!! 🤗
Yay! I'm stoked for you!
You literally make this so attainable! You did the steps perfectly! You make sure to match the directions to the demonstration!
Really the best video on backwards skating that I have watched so far! Thank uu!!

OMG ! Thank you, thank you, thank you for this video ! This has helped me so much with learning backwards skating.

All your videos are super helpful, this is the only backwards tutorial that got me to progress. Killin it queen 👑
Perfect! Good build up exercises to slowly progress for us newbies.
Thank you for this video, and especially for the pep talk at the end! I keep trying and I haven't gotten the hang of it yet, which feels so discouraging even though I know practice will help me get there. Gonna try again today!!

Love this. It truly broke it down. I kept wondering where to focus my weight and you explained it completely thanks so much!
i love the reassurance at the end 🥺
I couldn’t figure out how to bubble backwards until I saw a comment about slightly loosening trucks and did it. It completely fixed my problem
That looks like my grandma and grandads ( and dads ) neighborhood in Long Beach that they lived in . They lived on Mc Nabb off of Harco off of Woodruff....however there are like 50 blocks that look just like this lol I miss all 3 of them so much 😢 though I miss them this video brought back good memories of me roller skating there and I loved it bc my neighborhood in the SouthBay of LA had a ton of hills lol which were cool but it was fun to effortlessly skate without having to worry about hills cars etc .
