Should have watched this before my first outdoor skate. I swear, stretches that aren’t even “hills” give you speed so fast!! I ate it five times and then decided to watch this video. I was able to verrryy slowly go down the hills on the way back. Thank you!
Yeah those hills just jump out! You’d never notice it walking but the skates find them! 💥 glad this helped get you back safely.
Tried to skate down a multi-story car park, on that grippy paint they use, with my shiny new soft outdoor wheels... Never had so much grip on anything in my life! A plough was completely out of the question (and I reached the bottom of the ramp with considerably more speed than was sensible) Turned out it was a great slope to practice going backwards with a toe stop in though 🙂Thanks again Katie, might be having a play with t-stops outside next time I get out, and heel turns next time I skate inside before taking them out...
Sounds like a great plan! Have fun 💕⭐️🛼😀
Not the stones falling out the sky 🤣❤️
😂 the danger is real! 😂
🌸💜 Thankyou so much Skatie Katie for sharing so many helpful skating tips, your videos are wonderful, well explained, easy to follow. I am 57 years old, I have improved so much in such a short time in 2 months, I have gained so many skills. I am even skating down hills now (but very carefully, im scared to go fast) , I was terrified of hills (I wouldnt even go down the smallest gentlest of slopes) but your downhill video has given me confidence and taught me the skills needed. I have blades/ inline Skates so some things are a little different but I can still apply most of your skating techniques . A big thankyou, you are such a wonderful lovely person to put your own time into creating these videos and share your skating skills with everyone 💜🥰
Oh thank you so much for such a lovely comment. Have lots of fun on your skating journey. 💕⭐️⭐️
Even our driveway has been intimidating for me and my friend, so thank you for clearing up how to go downhill! We'll be pros in no time 😎Thanks, Katie!
You got this! ⭐️
That’s me! I skate my whole neighborhood but I’m scared to death of my own driveway. 😂
I love your videos. They are quick and to the point. Very helpful.
Thank you x 😎🛼⭐️🤩
This was so comprehensive and helpful! The way you construct your videos (with clear explanation, demonstration, and slow-mo) makes these techniques so easy to understand and learn. THANK YOU!!!
Thank you xx So glad the videos are helping. Have lots of fun x 🛼💕💕⭐️
Just the video I needed! There's a lot of hills around my house and was nervous to skate on them 😂
🛼⭐️💕😀 those hills are very sneaky! 😂
“Next time…” 🤣 YES! Love the edits - y’all are on fire! ❤️🔥
😂😂 my husband gets carried away sometimes! 😂😂
Yet again you've given all the best advice. Thanks Katie 🛼
Thank you xx 💕🛼⭐️😀
You are the best thing since sliced bread! I adore you!
⭐️⭐️💕💕😎🤩
Aaahhhh dont stop making videos!!! You have no idea your impact!! Ive been mastering backwards cross pulls and getting better and better because of you!!!
Oh that’s amazing! It’s so nice to hear that the videos help skaters. Thank you 💕💕⭐️⭐️
As always.....Well done! Thanks for another great video! I've done two hills so far in my skate journey but never tried the 1 foot carving or plow. Will give it a go!
Fabulous! Have fun xx ⭐️⭐️
Wow, it will save my life next time. Today I used Toe stop and fortunately, there was grass to go over there🤪 Thankssss
Bailing to the grass is a great way to save yourself. Great idea! ❤️🩹💕🛼⭐️😀
tysm for this video it helped me A LOT!!!!
Fantastic!!
Thanks Katie! I’m in a fairly flat area, and only see hills when I travel out of my region. And those hills are a lot more daunting while skating than they were while I was walking them! 😆
Definitely! I always think “I don’t remember this hill being here!” Skates find even the tiniest incline.🤕⭐️🛼
This is so useful, thank you! I crashed into a lamppost in April, had the bump for two months. Now I never go out without a helmet and started practicing different ways to stop. Carving was always too difficult, but you explain it so well! I'll definitely try again. ❤️
🤕 ⛑ oh no. Well done for getting back out there! We’ve got this together ⭐️⭐️⭐️💕😀
@@Skatie definitely! With your videos for sure. 🤩❤️
This video might be really helpful! i ordered rollerskates a day ago in my country and they said it takes 1-2 days so I'm really excited!
New skates are the best! Have an amazing time ! 🛼🛼💕
I love hoing down massive hills at high speeds, usually I jus cross my fingers and hope for the best, I jus ordered the back break for roller skates, I am hoping it helps me a bit , like an emergency break lol
Great video thank you
Good idea. I do love to bomb down a good hill. I only tend to do it when I know the area well so I know what’s coming. 🤩
Hi I'm back. So when I went to skate in front of my house I realized that the road has a bit of an incline which I don't really notice when walking. So I was very thrilled to see this video. I have found that I do currently prefer to do carving to slow down and turning to stop. I'm hoping to be able to turn backwards quickly and stop but nowhere near that happening yet. I had skated on our road before seeing this video. I noticed going side to side was causing me to speed up, kinda scary but figured it out. I'm glad I found this so I can make sure I'm using the carving technique properly. Thanks again for the awesome tips. Gonna watch hills part 2.
Thank you and I’m so glad it’s helped you. Have fun. 🤩🛼⭐️⭐️
Great video can’t wait for part two.
Can you do a video on what to do if your skating and it rains or people have sprinklers on? Here in Texas it tends to do surprise rain sessions here 😅😅 and it would be cool to know how to handle that.
Ooo that’s a tricky one. I’ve been caught in the rain a few of times. The worst bit is how slippy it gets under foot.
Yesss
⭐️⭐️💕🛼😀
I’ve been watching lots of your videos to prepare for when I get my skates and I really love the way you present everything. Also, you could be Frida’s twin from ABBA. 🛼
Oh wow. Do you think so. Dancing queen….. 💃 😂 Glad you’re enjoying the videos. xx
@@Skatie you can be the Rolling Queen 🛼💃lol….also wanted to mention the editing in your videos is excellent!
I can’t lunge carve with weight on my left knee for some reason; it feels super unstable, so I will try out the heel manual carve!!!!! Thanks, Skatie!!!!!!🤗
Hope that one works better for you xx ⭐️⭐️💕🛼🛼
I still havent started skating yet but hills are a plenty where i live and i have two very steep ones right near my house.
What out for those hills! 🤕⭐️💕🛼😀
I'm getting my first roller skates tomorrow, your tutorials seem really good! I'll edit this comment when I get them and I'll say how I'm doing:)
Yes please. Let us know how you get on x. Good luck ⭐️💕🛼😀
Carving is so challenging on a narrow path (like narrower than a car lane), and I'm not super confident with backwards skating, especially on one foot. I can skate backwards okay, so I was wondering what you think of facing sideways and going from one side of the trail to another, alternating skating forward and backwards, to zigzag down a hill.??
It’s a similar tech to carving and would work in the same way. I’d just say be careful during the transition from left to right and vice versa as your wheels will be facing down the hill whist you make the turn as you may pick up speed quickly.
A really helpful video, thanks. As a beginner, I just avoid hills, but with the help of this video, hopefully I will get better. 😊
⭐️😀 have fun xx
Hi Katie! First of all thank you so much for all your videos, me and my gf are watching every single one to learn the most about skating 😁 but we are really struggling to stop (sometimes we have to go with the hands to the ground 😂) I think already master the carving but sometimes I'm affraid to get out of space on the road and go straight to the grass 😅 So now I'm trying to own the backwards but I'm really really struggling to get on the backwards position, how do I turn my all body back in one momentum? Sorry for the long text! Once again thank you so much for your amazing work please keep "rolling" 😂
Try just getting a backward bubble first.
Then try one leg at a time to get the motion of your legs.
Then the hard part... dun. Dun. Dun. Duuuuuuunnnn.
Get your favorite song and put it all together. Find the beat.
Tip: Think backwards use your butt and lead foot to direct you. While shifting your weight from one leg to the other.
Don't forget to use your shoulders. Right cheek, arm, and legs hold the weight. Shift. Left cheek arm and legs carry the weight.
SWITCH!
Right cheek, arm and leg!
SWITCH!
Left cheek, arm, and leg.
Hope this helps! I just got it, got like yesterday.
O and use some thing to push you off at first if you need to just build speed to do the backward motion. By then you should pick up on which leg you are pushing off with going backward (not using your toe stopper).
Don't forget to look over your shoulder.
And watch skating videos like ATL, Detroit, Cleveland videos; check dey footwork and invision yourself doing the steps. How it feels. How they may be distributing their weight to do the tricks.
Trust yourself.
You could try practicing going into the grass. There’s nothing wrong with smoothly transitioning into a jog on the soft ground, and sometimes I have to when I hit some really bumpy ground that I have to go around. Then you can stop, turn around, and stay on the path backwards. That will hold you over until Skatie’s transition videos click for you!
I would love a review on those wheels!
My green heliums? Love love love them. 💕💕
@@Skatie Do you prefer these over Atom pulse for example for outside skating?
@@Schemerel I prefer a slightly harder wheel outside. The heliums are 83a which I like as they have slightly less grip and more speed outside. So rolling takes less effort.
I was silly and went up a small hill, wasn't prepared and had a big fall right onto my coccyx which is now fractured 🥺😐
Ouch! 🤕 hope you’re healing well. ❤️🩹
What do I do with a hill full of lose stones?😥
Oh yuck! Definitely go with the side step. Much safer. Double nemesis! 😳🤕💕🛼🛼😀😂
Hi, Skatie/ Katie! Can I please have some advice? You see the thing is, I like to practice rollerskating downstairs, and I don't have any safety gear yet. Everytime I let go of something, i feel wobbly. EVEN WHEN I HOLD ON. Can you please help?
Stairs are nasty. I tend to hold the hand rail but also go onto my toestops. That stops the wheels from moving and gives you more control. Don’t be shy to also go down on your bum (like we all did as kids!) it’s a very safe option xx
I have lots of blocks like floors. It scares me to slide on them....
Some surfaces can feel horrible to skate on. Block paving really rattled my feet. 🛼😢
backstops ??? or hill stops as they are called, surely a good idea ?
I’m not a fan of backstops on quads. They’re ok if you’re only going forwards outside but they’re not something I recommend.
So the best way to go down a very very steep hill would be backwards?
It’s my preferred way but make sure you’ve locked in your backwards skating on the flat first 🛼🛼⭐️
could u do one for blades ( inline) bc it does not works with the tutorial you did
Sadly I’m just a quad girl. There are lots of great online tutorials on RUclips too.
I should have watched this before trying to skate downhil... it was too fast and i was really scared so i wanted to stop, but i forgot everything about stopping so I made the desicion to fall... i fall on my Butt, cause i didn't want to fall on my head😅
🤕 always a good idea to get low and bail. Well done for saving yourself. Hope you’re 🍑 is ok. ⭐️⭐️
@@Skatie It still hurts, but it's gonna get better🙈
Do you need our doors wheels
Outdoor wheels make a huge different to the ride. Big and soft wheels are best. ruclips.net/video/oOd7oR6BO_8/видео.html
0:27 is this girl on the highway LOL i'm scared!!!
It’s ok. I’m on a cycle path beside a road. There’s a big safety rail between me and cars. 💕💕
