Could you please do a video on how to change your toe stops?
Stops are easy. Once you determine which type you have. Fixed or adjustable.
Fixed stops have a bolt that goes through the stop. Simply loosen it with a screwdriver, pull out the bolt, get your new stop, push the bolt back through, then tighten the bolt back down again with the screw driver. In this case, the bolt is what holds the stop in place so be sure it's tight, but don't over-tighten it as this could cause stripping of the screw.
Adjustable stops have a nut between the plate and the stop. If you don't see this nut, you have a fixed stop. Loosen the nut. In this case, the bolt is actually attached to the stop. Unscrew the stop until it comes out. Switch to your new stop. Screw the stop back in so it's as low or as high as you'd like it, then tighten the nut back up. In this case, the nut is what holds the stop in place so be sure it's tight, but again, don't over-tighten as it could cause stripping of the screw.
That's really all there is to changing a stop. :)
You suc
@LiyahK he is ignoring you because he knows that you're right
Might you gals be interested in making pigeon the star of an episode on her balancing life/momming/skating? I have two of those baby humans and I have a hard time juggling..I just wonder how it is for a mom who's successfully juggling lol
New skater mom w/ a preschool-aged kiddo here -- but I am a stay-at-home mom, not a working mom, so I'm sure this won't apply to many -- maybe not even you. Fwiw, I like to hope that my experience hasn't been too bad.
Once my daughter could be outside w/ me, I'd do sports w/ her that she could do: strolling, bicycle trailer riding and then, as she got older, even paddleboarding on flatwater (i.e., lakes / reservoirs, w/ an age-appropriate life vest, and w/ me sitting on the board, padling w/ a canoe paddle) -- and swimming and diving (yes, even fairly young kids can learn if you teach 'em right). Granted, what's available to each of us will vary, but it's to provide some possible ideas. = )
My daughter's four now and has loved it all. She's learned to ride a bike w/ no training wheels -- spent time on a jury-rigged balance bike -- fairly easy to strip out the pedals / chain -- and now she's trying to skate quads / inlines. I skate inlines and am doing what I can to help her learn whichever she'd like. I get to skate on my own when my daughter's at preschool (part-time) or the hubs is giving me a break after he comes home from work.
I admit: when I need a break during the day, I do put on a video for my daughter to watch. Gotta take care of the parents, too -- or even just have a free kitchen to make lunch.
There are typically ways to make things work if you are creative and just ignore the helicopter parents. The way I deal w/ the helicopter parents is that I just ignore their glares / dirty looks, avoid 'em when I can, and hang w/ moms who are more laid-back / more appreciative of my more free-spirited form of parenting. ; )
Once the kids start school, I imagine the whole "free time" thing may get easier.... unless you live in a high cost-of-living area and have to work to pay bills. : / I realize that's a sad reality for a lot of folks these days -- although there are still some areas where housing isn't super-expensive just yet, if you can find a job that pays enough. Those areas are getting rarer but still exist here and there, if you know where to look. = )
Raising only one kiddo with almost no support has been hard many times -- I'd think that two kiddos could hopefully learn to play together -- that's how it was for my sister and me -- but it's also been a lot of fun having only one, b/c of the things we've been able to do as a mother-daughter team. Hopefully two won't be too bad, especially as they get a skosh older. = )
Our quality of life has varied considerably, depending on where we've lived. In areas w/ limited recreational / socialization opportunities, rampant dual-income workaholism and many helicopter parents, yeah, it's really stunk. Given the choice, I would never again live in such an area -- as a mom, or otherwise -- because I love to stay active and be myself. (Yes, there are some moms like that. = ) I know it can be hard to leave these kinds of areas, but leaving is not impossible. Sometimes you just gotta get creative in finding work in other areas, when you value other other things more.
When we've lived in areas w/ lots of recreational amenities and other conveniences -- and a stronger sense of community / better opportunities to socialize w/ other laid-back / friendly moms -- it was definitely a way higher quality of life for our family as a whole. I'm hoping we'll be able to move to such an area in the next couple of years. Good luck w/ your situation! = )
@@lyndagruen2047 I don't have kids myself yet, but i kinda feel you with the helicopter parent thing. I grew up having two older siblings, 10 and 7 years apart and we were/are living on a little farm in germany. My mom stayed at home for me (she worked when my siblings were small) but with the farm and having a bed and breakfast she still had a lot to do everyday and we used to do lots of things together like going shopping, sometimes by bike. My older sister got herself some inline skates when i was 4,5 years old and of course i wanted to have some too. So i got them aroung 5 months before turning 5 and even though i struggled at first cause no one could show me how to do it (my sister didn't skate that much, seeing she was in school and i only had kindergarten until lunch...) but i got the hang of it pretty quickly and became much better than my sister ever did. That winter i got some ice skates and my dad and i went ice skating on our neighbours lake almost every day (sadly nowadays lakes don't freeze that good anymore at our home, just not cold enough but there's an ice rink nearby).
So: i'm sure your daughter will be really good with her skates in no time (seeing as your comment is 4 months ago she might already be a pro ;) )
And for leaving your daughter "alone" sometimes to get some time for yourself or just to make lunch etc, i don't think that's a bad thing. I had really much freedom in that age, playing for hours alone in our garden and meadows or just laying down with my cats in the hay and it was the best time in my life and i think one of the best childhood experiences i can imagine. So don't worry too much about it. Kids are smarter than most people (especially helicopter parents) think they are and can handle themselver pretty well. As long as they know their boundaries and you are there to help if something comes up it is completely ok to not supervise every waking moment of their lives (and i say this as aunt of 5 children in the rang of 4 to 13 years who are just growing up as i was, pretty free and still supported wherever needed). So just enjoy your time for yourself!
I also would like to see such a video, would be pretty interesting.
Can you do a video about how to clean moxi? :D (boot, frame, wheels)
Gwen Goolie has a video on how to clean the suede boots, not sure about the frame or wheels though!
There is one up by Indy (with Pigeon) as for the boot.
Plates: I'd leave alone. Whether you have nylon or metal plates, they both have metal parts. Get those parts wet and they will rust if you don't dry them properly...and unless you take the plate completely apart down to the kingpin, there are areas that are impossible to dry thoroughly while it's still together.
Wheels: Get some Fast Orange or Orange Goop - both have a "smooth" formula (do NOT get the one marked "with pumice") - most of the bottles are "pump style". Squirt on one or two "drops" per wheel, spread it around the wheel with your finger, then let it sit for 30-45 seconds (maybe a bit longer if you've never cleaned them before), then simply wipe off with a paper towel. It's actually a hand cleaner for the automotive field (it takes off all the grease and grime) so it can be found in most auto parts store, places like Harbor Freight, home improvement stores, sometimes even dollar stores have smaller bottles, and both can even be found on Amazon. This said...if you only skate outdoors (never at an indoor rink), it's really not worth it to clean your wheels as you'll get build-up on them the second you go back out to skate anyway, but of course it's up to you. It is good for outdoor skaters to check their wheels every couple months or so, though. If you see cracks (rarely happens with urethane wheels, often happens on cheap plastic ones) or chunks missing (from going over really rough pavement), it's better to get new wheels instead of putting the effort into cleaning them anyway. You'll most likely feel it when you skate if there are chunks missing...but you won't necessarily feel those cracks in cheaper until it's too late.
Andrea Rodriguez you’re so right
You can use dish soap and water, magic earaser, my brother uses his own *spit* but that's ┐(￣ー￣)┌
Her name is Indy
Could you do a video with more in depth information on wheels, like what wheels are used for which purposes and how to transition from outdoor wheels to harder ones?
Soft = outdoor. Hard = indoor. That said, there is quite a range in durometers. About the softest wheel you can find for a roller skate is a 70A while the hardest is a 103A. It's really a LOT more about personal preference than anything, but it also depends on where you skate. For the basics: Outdoors, I wouldn't go much higher than an 85A...indoors, I wouldn't go much below an 80A. Dirty rinks require a slightly softer wheel. Concrete (rink or outside) and asphalt require a very soft wheel to get over the cracks, bumps, and small twigs/gravel that is out there. A well taken care of wood rink means a harder wheel. If you skate a well-maintained wood rink and get a 70A, it can be like trying to skate in mud. Alternately, a well-maintained rink with a 103A can be like roller skating on ice! Especially for those new to skating. Smaller wheels allow you to be more agile, though a bit slower while larger wheels allow for less effort to keep rolling with a bit more speed. Experiment with wheels until you find a durometer and size you're comfortable with for the surface you skate on. In many places where skaters gather (parks and rinks) all you have to do is ask around. Most people will be willing to switch wheels with you for a few laps to test out the different durometers. For the majority of us, we want you to love skating as much as we do...and we know that having the wrong wheel for your environment can make it very difficult to skate. Don't be shy...get out there and start asking around! :)
Granted, this is much more difficult if you're in an area where skating isn't as popular, but you can find some inexpensive wheels to play around with in every size and durometer if needed. You can always sell the old ones on EBay - or other similar sites - once you do find that set you really like.
@@MystiqueRisingSun Thanks so much for the thorough information! It was confusing at first to figure out the nuances of wheels because I was being told go hard for the parks - and after skating with the Moxi gummy wheels at an outdoor park, I realized how much of a hindrance the softness and wideness of the wheels could be. Then my roommate went ahead and bought the Moxi trick wheels and had the hardest time at an indoor skate park because of all the lint. I was confused because Chicks in Bowls sells really hard wheels and a lot of people use them on wood ramps. Now I understand that first of all, you just have to get used to such a huge change in wheels, and secondly, there are probably indoor parks with much better cleanliness than out local one. However, we both have harder wheels now and they're a delight at the skate rink. We tried taking the Moxi gummy wheels there and you could feel how dangerous it is to be that stuck to the floor. Anyway, thanks so much for taking the time to reply! It's such a huge help to know how slight changes in durometers can give you more variety of experience than you would expect. And thanks for recommending inexpensive wheels to experiment with! I ended up buy the Riedell Sonar Rva Wheels, but I was hesitant since they're on the cheaper side. Turns out they're a great way to adjust to a harder wheel without investing a ton of money right away.
@@rnbaker11 No problem. I know Indy and the girls can't catch "every" question. I've had wheels on my feet since I was 2...I'll be 46 in January. I pretty much grew up on skates, though I did take about 12 years off to have children. Rinks don't like pregnant women skating for some reason. LOL Seriously, though, I've learned a lot over the years and wish I'd had someone help me more. Trail and error have sent me to the ER one time too many. I just wish I had some way of sharing the knowledge other than creating a website or the like (which I'm really NOT good at.). In time, you might want to upgrade the wheels to something in a similar durometer, but...honestly, *most* wheels are the same if they're the same size and durometer...though there can sometimes be slight differences, too. My local rink, I actually use a 78A or lower because they never take care of it. Hitting a pebble - yep, on an INDOOR rink - is horrible. UGH! :( Hence why personal preference has so much to do with wheel choice more than anything. A good, confident, skater can honestly get used to any wheel on any surface for any purpose...but it's better to have something "close" to what you need for maximum benefit. Roll on! :)
MystiqueRisingSun you are the best kind of person, I’m going through the comments bc I’m looking for more answers on how to change up my skate and ur answering every single question I have! Thank you for helping out the roller community
@@MystiqueRisingSun thank you sooooooo much for your post. I'm trying to figure this wheel thing out 🤗
Oh my Gawd!! I LOVE ❤️ that you didn’t edit out the baby nursing improvisation, breastfeeding mothers are so good at that kind of stuff 😍😍🤣🤪
She is so impressive! Didn't even miss a beat...
My roller derby coach was at the skate park the other day and got a flat tire. He went sliding and broke his fibula in three places and won't be able to put weight on his right leg for at least four weeks because he didn't tighten his wheel nut enough. Please tighten your wheels.
What does a flat spot on the wheel (tires inflate, wheels are solid pieces) have to do with....any of that? Are you saying he changed his wheels and didn't tighten the axle lock nut or that they weren't tight to begin with or that due to the aggressive nature of the skate park, the nut became loose?.....
@@MystiqueRisingSun in this video, 'flat tire' is more of a slang than an actual flat tire.
i've always loved skating but gave it up bc i never had anyone who wanted to go with me. so that's dumb, and i'm saving up for some good skates now bc who cares if nobody wants to have fun, i still can =^_^= anyway, this channel is great and i love that you share your knowledge to help empower my journey toward being a rad skating kitty. i was wondering a couple of things, if you have time to help out?
firstly, aside from changing out wheels for various uses, when do you know to retire a set of wheels permanently? and how do you know that the bearings need to be retired as well? thanks! i'm super glad i found this channel.
MiauxCatterie I’ll go skating with you, bro.
Wheels - especially without outdoor skating - will get worn down. If you skate outdoors (or on rough concrete rink floors) daily, you won't notice it as much. Look at the wheels closely when you get your skates (or just new wheels) and measure them with a cloth or plastic measuring tape. The kind made for sewing. Measure "around" the wheel as well as from the "top" of the wheel to the "bottom" (as they'd sit on your skate) as close to the center as possible. Use the millimeter marks, NOT inches, and make a note of those measurements. Once you lose roughly 3-5 millimeters, it's time to retire the wheel.
As for bearings, you should check them regularly. How often depends on where you skate and how often you skate, but about every 1 to 3 months if outside/on rougher surfaces/6 months to a year if indoor skating only. If the bearing is dirty, you can clean it. Bones not only makes great bearings, but they also make a great cleaner! Usually that's all it takes. The only time a bearing truly needs to be replaced is if it gets damaged or rusts...that is...if your wheels aren't turning properly and cleaning them doesn't help, it's time for a new set.
Yeah, i used to inline skate all the time when i was younger, but now living in the next town with my bf no one really wants to go and my girl friends wo would want to all live somewhere else now (ok, it's only 1,5hours drive to one of them but i don't have the time or the car to do this every week, so we only see us 5 or 6 times a year as i work almost every weekend...). But me and one of those friends decided we both start roller skating to have some fun in the summertime. Maybe i find someone near me who would want to go sometime but i will go anyway... I'm just not too sure what skates i'm going to buy...
Same Can I skate with you 🥺😋😂
If you live anywhere near San Antonio, TX..I'll totally skate it up with ya.
I got first moxi wheels today! Lets just say I'm stoked 😆 I'm to broke to afford the skates but I knew I'd need decent wheels. I'm so excited for my skates to get here and get rolling. I've in a VERY small town and no onnnneee skates here. I on the other hand have never had this much motivation in my life 💁 lets goooo
Same ab the small town part
Jewelsart Diddly how were they?
I understand that when you are taking of your wheels that you want to be quick but I would suggest not taking all your wheels of on both sides as you are leaning down onto the skate the pressure might bend or misshapen the truck or axel of the plate ⛸
How do you know whether you need the 8mm Redz or the 7mm Redz?
Not to sound stupid but I would love if you guys did a "What's in my Skate Bag" video! Also I LOVE your outfits always Indy!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I changed my wheels for the first time and your video made it so simple!!!
I had a flat tire on my in line skates once
So scarryyyyy!
INDY JAMMA JONES
Its not that scary actually but its really weird until u figure out whats going on. It happened 1 kilometer away from my house,i found the part that fell out and then lost it right as i stepped in my yard,long story short i have only 2 wheels on each boot cause Here there is no skatshop...
INDY JAMMA JONES
And thanks for replying!
What did you run over? How do skates even get flat?
Just go my Pineapple Skates! Love you all at moxi!!
Beanie Skates how much did it cost?
Thank you so much for inspiring me you have made me order skates I will hope fully get them in the next 2 or 3 weeks you are so inspirational
I've been binging your videos for a couple weeks because I was preparing to get my own skates... I just ordered them 2 days ago! I got the same wheels you did to change out, this was very helpful! ❤️❤️
Love your vids and the whole team! I'm planning on buyings some moxis so i need to know everything about skates and your channel helps so much!
Just bought impalas and wanted to put my moxi wheels on them!! Knew you'd have a video on it 🙏 thank you Indy!!
Should have watched the video before changing my wheels... took me half an hour because it was so hard to put in the bearings 🤦 really helpful content!
The bearing trick - thanks for sharing! I tried muscling them in there last time & it was rough! 🤣
5:45 starts the “how to seat the bearings” trick:))) thank you!!!
Gonna go for it! Ordering a box of reds and the red radar energy wheels for my new floss lolly skates. Waiting on my gold toecaps now!
Girl, you donknow how much if a life saver you are!!
Thank you for this! I just got my first set of new wheels and new bearings from PRS! I'm so excited. This was so helpful! I did it all myself without having to ask the engineering husband one question! Yay!
Can you make a video on how to clean your bearings and how to change your toe stops... All of the basic maintenance. Thanks so much for all of the helpful videos!
They make bearing cleaners....as for toe stops, it's easy. A screwdriver for fixed stops or a wrench for adjustables is all you need.
Thanks you so much! At first I was thinking of skipping that vid, since I know how to change my wheels BUT THEN I JUST DISCOVERED THAT THEY WERE WAY TOO LOOSE!
Hahah yayy happy to help!
I'm a beginner, and I just love watching your videos. So informational and you have the coolest attitude ever. Keep rolling 😎
This helped me SO much, especially the trick to get the bearings in/out without using an additional tool. Thank you! & keep rollin'
I just changed my wheels last night using your “secret” bearing technique...it worked great! Feeling all empowered now😀🇵🇷
R S ayyyy puertorican sis!!
hey indy these videos have helped me so much! ive only been skating for two months but im getting ready to go to the skatepark✨✨ i cant wait to order pineapple moxis and i hope you come down to miami again!! 💕
This was so helpful! Thank you so much! Could you possibly do a video about which wheels and bearings you recommend for different uses?
If you sort the comments by "Top Comment", someone else asked this too. I got pretty detailed. :)
Lol when the music volume changed and the video started speeding up I thought I was going crazy lol
I LOVE the orange wheel bag but every time I check the shop it’s sold out :( love the tutorial btw! I’m a newbie skater in the dirty south, and I just ordered my first pair of skates!
Much love from Alabama! ❤️
I’ve been waiting forever for this!!!
I knowwwww I'm trying my bestest to get them out as often as possible! New one soon :D
INDY JAMMA JONES you rock Indy!! Love planet roller skater!!
Thank you so much, I was so confused about what bearings to get
This literally is the best Been skating since I was like 5 or 6 but I’ve never had my own skates and never changed them meyself. I always went to the skating rink and paired them for the service. I now have my own pair and now I’m gonna change my wheels myself! Thank you thank You thank you!
Thank you for this tutorial! Just did this with the honeydew gummy wheels!!!! My skates are soooo much lighter now!
So helpful!!!! Thank you!!!!
Do you need spacers with your bearings.... I’m new to this, and noticed while shopping for red bones bearing that they come with and without spacers... I noticed you didn’t use them here but idk if that always the case
Why do you not put a spacer between the bearings? 🤔
Greetings from 🇩🇪
Thanks! Just successfully changed my wheels. You guys rock!
Indi!!!! Giiirrrrllll you just saved my life. U angel!!! Got my bearings an skates today. Took me less than 10 minutes. I got yellow also. An i looooovvveeeee them!!! 😍😍😍😍💛🖤💛🖤💛🖤
can you do a how to change your toe stop? i cannot get mine off...
Fixed stops have a bolt that goes through the stop. Simply loosen it with a screwdriver, pull out the bolt, get your new stop, push the bolt back through, then tighten the bolt back down again with the screw driver. In this case, the bolt is what holds the stop in place so be sure it's tight, but don't over-tighten it as this could cause stripping of the screw. Adjustable stops have a nut between the plate and the stop. If you don't see this nut, you have a fixed stop. Loosen the nut. In this case, the bolt is actually attached to the stop. Unscrew the stop until it comes out. Switch to your new stop. Screw the stop back in so it's as low or as high as you'd like it, then tighten the nut back up. In this case, the nut is what holds the stop in place so be sure it's tight, but again, don't over-tighten as it could cause stripping of the screw.
This also depends on the skate itself, though. On many cheap skates (those under $70 or so for artistic/high-top booted skates and those around $50 or under for speed/jam/derby skates/low-top booted skates), they sometimes use Lock-Tite at the factory. It's great if you get the low or medium strength...but, sadly, many use the high strength or permanent versions...which means, you're NEVER going to get that stop off. :( If you paid more than that for your skates, it just might take a little extra "Oomph" to get them off since skate companies usually tighten them down by machine, rather than by hand. Good luck!
My new wheels arrived and immediately had to come to this channel to learn how to change my wheels. Love y’all!
Can you do more videos on stopping fast and learning to stop in general pleasssseee 🤗🤗
Stopping backwards without falling over would be great too..
Doing the t stop without falling would also be nice because I'm a failure
She has several already. It's just a matter of how often you are able to practice. If you're skating every day, what she describes in the videos will take less time to learn than if you're only skating once a month. Practicing the motions on carpet or on a tiled floor - without your skates on - also helps build the muscle memory needed. With enough practice on carpet, and especially in socks on a tiled floor (so you get a bit of slide to help you feel the movement), your brain will start to remember once you are able to get your feet back into your skates.
Thank you! I have been wanting to learn for a long time, Great video, super helpful! Love Moxi Wheels!
You're like the perfect sidekick friend for roller skating! Uhh, I need a friend like you to go skating :D
Where do you live? We can be skate friends ^_^
@@samonep.7474 Haha, I'm down! I'm in Houston. Wbu?
Thank you
Thank you for this! So informative and much needed!
What about keeping your wheels aligned? I just got my first pair of skates. Rose gold Impalas 😍😍😍 but my wheels are not even, one wheel is up on each skate. I cannot find a video to explain how to fix that. I would be super grateful🙏
This video was so helpful. Thank you for all the great tips!
Thanks helped out a lot
0:04 the wheel attacked you 😂
Thanks for this video, it's super helpful.
Thank you for this! I’m finally doing it myself 🤩
Where can I get a boot cover like that?
I Love your channel!!! Thanks for help me! 🇧🇷
Those wheels are beautiful
I love pigeon shes so nice and funny 😂😂❤❤
Thanks Indy! This is so freaking helpful. What kind of wheels do you normally use? I’ve been wanting to skate outdoors and thought I had to get the gummy’s for that.
I know Indy uses the red Radar Energy wheels (she mentions it in a few of her other videos)...but what you need depends on where and how you skate. It's not as simple as saying "this" wheel or "that" wheel.
My wheels don’t turn on their own, like if I spin them they don’t keep spinning. How could I fix that?
loosen them
Really handy video Indy! Thanks for the tutorial I now have fresh blue wheels on my skates love ya❤❤❤👌👌👌
Why is this video so satisfying lol😂
These videos are so easy to learn and follow! I plan to get skates, begged my parents to get me some Moxi skates and they said not till I get good... happens but with these videos help I will some day have a pair of Moxi’s! Thanks for the helpful videos!
If you still haven't gotten them, and you are still skating, it may be helpful to explain to your parents that learning on rentals or using someone else's skates makes it HARDER to get good at skating. Once you have your own, you can adjust them as you like them to make skating easier for you. Mine have had their own skates since my youngest was around 2...best investment ever! At 14, she's now a little speed demon and loves skating as often as possible. I wouldn't get super high end skates if your feet are still growing, but do NOT get "cheap" ones either. Cheap skates aren't good and good skates aren't cheap.
Hey, I checked you online store, and I cant seem to find the tool you were using, would you mind telling me what section it is in?
I've been wondering about this too!
Hey Indy, what wheels did you take off? Were they also Moxi skate wheels?
Fireflysweetheart28 I wanna say they are the Radar Red Energy wheels...I think...
Yep! In her video about the Luminous wheels, she mentioned she wears Red Radar Energy wheels. I just bought some and love them for outdoor skating! Soft enough for bumps and cracks, but small enough so that I don't fly too fast hahaha
Hola no se hablar inglés
This really helps a lot i never realized i have to change wheels and bearings and all that jazz :))
I need some help, so I am becoming a car hop at sonic and I can skate great inside, I can spin and stop and do all kinds of stuff inside but when I get outside it's like I know nothing at all it's hard for me to stop myself and go over cracks and bumps it's mostly stopping myself that is the hassle. Thank you!!
kaia rose it’s your wheels. I was a carhop at sonic for 4yrs. I had the Super-Grip Flame skates. The wheels were perfect for inside or even the parking lot during “lot sweeps”, but unless you have amazing balance, they weren’t great for he sidewalk. Try a softer wheel. Also, watch out for peppermints on the ground! Those are a carhop’s enemy
you made changing my GF's Moxi skates wheels a breeze, thank you so much for your quick, easy and informative video
Just got my Moxi gummy lavender wheels! Can’t believe how smooth the ground is now! 10/10 would recommend! :)
i love u so much u have inspired me to roll
Thank you soooooo much! I changed my wheels thanks to this video (yes I am a beginner).
Love the ‘wheel changing rag’ 🙂
Which skate would you recommend for men? Please let me know
Got my white Radars on! Thanks so much for this video!!!!
Are you going to dye them to match your skates?
You are a mind reader. I just bought new wheels and I had no idea how to change them. My other wheels completely fell apart while I was skating. As in they broke to pieces lol
Okay...my mind is officially blown here. BROKE INTO PIECES??? I've seen people forget to put a bearing in new wheels, causing their wheel to fly off....I've seen people put bearings in improperly and have their wheel fly off....I've seen people not tighten their lock nut enough so both nut AND wheel have flown off....but I've never seen a wheel completely disintegrate before! Ouch! :(
OMG!! TY
I have a question! What if you can’t tighten your wheels enough to not wiggle back and forth a little? The nut is as tight as it will go with all the pressure I can apply but the wheels still wiggle a little!
I have outdoor lolly's, but i want the indoor trick skates too. Can the indoor moxi skates be put on the outdoor rollerskates? I NEED HELP
Hi! is there any reason why you're not using spacers between the bearings? interesting
you could also probably carefully pull push the bearings out with a allen wrench if possible?
Indy, can you make a video about how to lace up the skates properly and how to pick the right size please !
2:10
"you could get on top and screw things" yeaah tools
Do you recommend Chaya or Impala skates???? I really need to know. I want to start skating! I've been inspired by your videos!
Lol I love that little toy
I am trying to change my wheels on my moonlights to the moxi gummies. Do you need to buy new bearings for each new set of wheels? And are they all the same size??
Is there a video on how to put on the bone on moxis?
Hi... I went to the shop you added to the description... And couldn't find the weels bag... Where can I find it!?!
Amazing! I'm just about to buy new bearings to go back to my gummy wheels, so I'm totally gonna follow this video! Thanks :)
I have a question, I’m new to roller skating so I bought a pair of Seven’s quad skates but the wheels where terrible for outdoors skating so I ended up buying Moxi’s 65mm 78A wheels. However they’re too thick to fit my skates and I don’t know what to do!
I tried putting bearings on my wheels manually but I could only do it in one side, is there something I'm doing wrong?
I just made my purchase for clementine lollys I’m so excited!!!! 🧡🧡🧡✨✨
I myself am a starter roller skater but I think I have gotten really good with ramps and potholes
So i am 13 and still growing pretty fast. So what skate do you reccomend for beginners that isnt too pricy
Hi you may not notice me but my skates like on on the right skate the back wheels are slow so what should I do with it
Wow I always thought you needed a bearing press
Nice video!! Awesome way to change bearings on the go. Any suggestions on how I can change the axles on my trucks to accommodate a wider wheel? Thank you for any suggestions!!
hey indy, just wanted to ask where u got your skate leashes, wheel bags and boot covers? :) and what wheels you use, the red ones amd the light up ones?
Hey Indy!!
I got the Lolly roller skates complete set and I want to know is it possible to upgrade the trucks from the black ones that come on there?? If so, can you do a video on how to do that??? You are truly amazing and please keep making videos!!!!💜💜💜💜💜💜
You can change any plate or tricks to what you like. I made skates out of my old shoes...and I'm working on a second pair now! With shoes, you'll need the plate and mounting hardware. With skates, you'll just need the trucks (if that's all you want to change) or plates (if you're going for "full" metal versus the nylon). Unscrew the bolts holding the plate on (or the kingpin that holds the trucks on)...swap them out....put the new ones on, then just screw everything back into place. Also, be sure to get the proper plate size for your skates! Most will have size charts on sites or your local rink or skate shop will be able to help you there. :)
Do I need the Bones washer and spacer for skates or just the bearings?
