Cheers Dude! 🙏 This has been in the works for a while, it was filmed back in April! 😁 I know there are many tutorials for this, but I always find it helpful to have different perspectives when learning something new.
Great tutorial 👏. Learning powerslide was a game changer for me. Knowing I could stop pretty reliably whenever I wanted gave me the confidence to get out and about more freely and to explore more and longer routes. Need to improve my weak side though. And then magic slides!
It’s not the aim to have your boot touch the ground, just your wheels. In my experience-and I can get pretty low on a power slide-it’s not something I can ever recall happening.
I tried this but I think it's still too advanced for me because though i can transition, I still put way too much weight on the sliding leg. i will come back to this comment once I can do this!
@@RichHayterSkater yes I've been practicing with both feet. I caught a mini slide just once. I recorded myself though and honestly I could bend my non sliding knee a little deeper and also angle my sliding foot more. If you'd like to take a look, it's currently on my ig story, inlineshey . Appreciate the prompt response, your videos are great
Excellent tutorial on the Power Slide stop. The second method is usually the one I use most which is the method I learn from the skate fresh Asha videos. Still working on those parallel slides that Bill S. guy sure does make it look easy. See ya on the next roll!
Pad yourself up and follow the steps! The first little side-to-side step is quite easy and can be done on grass. Go for it! You gotta crack a few eggs if you want to make an omelette!
Somehow i have really difficulty to make a inside turning step to get into the powerslide. I find it so much easier to make an outside turn. I also mainky transition from forward to backwards that way. What i prefer on the spin method is that you get much smoother into the break. You dont put you foot on the ground and somehow need to have the right angle and pressure instantly the moment you hit the ground, you just change the angle in the moment of transition until you got the right angle.
I tend to use the spin method as a safety net for a higher speed power stop. It offers just enough slide to avoid an abrupt stop that might tip me over, but not so much that it won’t stop me quick enough. I find the step method very useful when space is tight. I don’t need to consider the available space around me, i simply step directly into the stop. If I step out far enough onto that edge, I know my wheels can do nothing else but slide! 👍
@@RichHayterSkater thanks for that comment. Let's see ill reconsider my thoughts maybe. About the slide. I can slide as much for both ways. I mean its just abput how sharp the angle between wheels and ground are. From the instant stop to a really long time long slide.
@@RichHayterSkater I'm using the second one, but training both to warm up and to work out on my weak side. I'm from Florianópolis, Brazil. Curiously, people here use the soul slide more.
In my opinion, the soul slide is a method best used for controlling speed, power slide is a method for stopping. But maybe that’s just me?

Can it be done with quite new 84A wheels ? seriously I am trying to get as much angle as I can and put all my weight on my skate which is straight but the other one supposing to break by sliding just get stopped abruptly as soon as it touches the ground perpendicular.

The surface is also not the smoothest but only gently granular
I’d nail that little transition step at low speed first, then you’ll be golden at any speed. 👌

@@RichHayterSkater finally made it this after on a smoother surface like prebuilt cement elements, not waxed ones but smoother than the shitty granular concret I was trying previously ! So satisfying when it slides a bit compared to just net stop ! 😁
Thanks for the tutorial. I can already power slide doing the stepping method, but only on one side. I need to work on my other side since I can't do it on that side at all.
I’m glad you learned from this. I probably use the first method more than the second and try to keep the transition as quick and as smooth as possible since this is where mistakes are likely to happen.

I'm actually currently working on a powerslide tutorial myself. Timing of your upload is uncanny. Great tutorial 👍
Cheers Dude! 🙏

fantastic explanation,s
Fantastic video. You've got a great way of explaining each part of the move, piece by piece. The advice to drill first in shoes was really helpful.
Thank you! I’m glad you found it helpful! 👍
Great tutorial 👏. Learning powerslide was a game changer for me. Knowing I could stop pretty reliably whenever I wanted gave me the confidence to get out and about more freely and to explore more and longer routes. Need to improve my weak side though. And then magic slides!
Yes, a solid stop is a must.
My weak side defo needs work but balance is worth the effort.
Thanks! 🙏
Hi
If you continue to do this, will you ruin the tires?
Most stopping techniques will promote wheel wear.
@@RichHayterSkater thank you brother🤍🤏🏻
Do the skates touch the ground during power slides? And are they expected to if so?
It’s not the aim to have your boot touch the ground, just your wheels. In my experience-and I can get pretty low on a power slide-it’s not something I can ever recall happening.
Very very very helpful inspired video I am so inspired amazing video wonderful effort
Thank you! 🙏
I tried this but I think it's still too advanced for me because though i can transition, I still put way too much weight on the sliding leg. i will come back to this comment once I can do this!
Have you tried using the opposite foot to slide? It might not seem intuitive but you might surprise yourself. 👍

Very smooth and well explained! Btw...How often do you need to change/replace your wheels?
Every 6 months perhaps? You’re gonna need to rotate often when learning the power slide.
And thank you! 😁
I have +90 hours of skating and practice and I still find the powerslide to be very difficult... unfortunately it's the best stop
Baby steps! keep practicing, you’ll get there. 👍
One of the best power slide tutorials I’ve seen. Would love to see something similar about magic slide which I currently struggle with.
Thank you! 🙏
The magic slide is also on my list! 😁
don't forget to turn your wheels if you've been doing this all day :)
Excellent tutorial on the Power Slide stop. The second method is usually the one I use most which is the method I learn from the skate fresh Asha videos. Still working on those parallel slides that Bill S. guy sure does make it look easy. See ya on the next roll!
Thanks! Parallel slides defo take a lot more work.
You explained it very well. I never attempted to powerslide, but would love to try it out.
Pad yourself up and follow the steps!
The first little side-to-side step is quite easy and can be done on grass.
Go for it! You gotta crack a few eggs if you want to make an omelette!
Thank you! Very helpful!
As a fellow west coaster your videos are a twofer for me….totally forgot about the awesome paths in Largs
They sure are! 👍
Best detailed power slide video ever.Love fm Bangladesh
Hey thanks! 😁
I’m glad you found the video helpful! 👍
Best tutorial out there, thanks! Especially the practice method clicked something for me.

About the slide. I can slide as much for both ways. I mean its just abput how sharp the angle between wheels and ground are.
From the instant stop to a really long time long slide.
th red and white skates look like the rb pro X. are they?
They do, but these are Oxelo’s MF500. These were available be for the RB Pro X. 👌
Great video and some really good tips, starting to get a few slides and power stops, so will definitely be giving these a go! Much appreciated 👍
Thanks for the feedback, Dude! 😁
Thank you for sharing Rich. I'll work with this tutorial hopefully today.🤞👍
🔥🔥🔥🔥
I learned the powerslide with your video. Thank you.
Superb! This makes me happy!
Which method worked best?

Very new wheels can feel sticky, but it your angle is low enough it won’t really matter. You’ll know when you’re low enough, you’ll just slide. 👍
@@RichHayterSkater thanks. So I’ll try harder and with higher speed
I’d nail that little transition step at low speed first, then you’ll be golden at any speed. 👌
@@RichHayterSkater finally made it this after on a smoother surface like prebuilt cement elements, not waxed ones but smoother than the shitty granular concret I was trying previously ! So satisfying when it slides a bit compared to just net stop ! 😁
Would you powerslide while going downhill or should you just try to slow down?
I’d normally use slalom turns on a downhill to maintain speed. Check it out here:

Good videos!
Thanks! Hope they help you! 👍
Thanks for posting. This video is a great learning tool.
Excelente
🙏😁
This is a fantastic tutorial - thank you so much for making this. Am working the Powerslide at the moment
Glad you found it useful! They PS is a great stop!
i feel like ill never ken to this.
You will! Just follow the steps. Try it on grass. Try the simple lazy parallel turn, it’ll start to click. 👍
@@RichHayterSkater I'm going to watch this when I go out so I remember the tips. Thanks Rich.
👍
Thanks for the tutorial. I can already power slide doing the stepping method, but only on one side. I need to work on my other side since I can't do it on that side at all.
I defo have a favourite side. My other side is pretty to weak, to be fair.
You definitely deserve more and more subscribers in my opinion
Thank you! 🙏
Learned it from this tutorial thanks alot
Wanted to ask if any of the 2 methods is safer at high speeds and on the street?
I’m glad you learned from this.
I probably use the first method more than the second and try to keep the transition as quick and as smooth as possible since this is where mistakes are likely to happen.
I’m finally beginning to slide :)
🙌
Very good tutorial, thank you!
Hope it helps! 👍
Hey! Which wheels are best to use? What is the stiffness?
Most of these are 86A, but I’ve used 84 - 88A and don’t really find much difference. Harder wheels should slide more easily.
Awesome tutorial!
Thanks Dude! 👍
I'll get there eventually ! Only just got my T-stop down. QUESTION: which is easier, jump-transition or slide ?
I find the little step transition to be easier as it can be learned at low speeds and on grass. Getting confident with that transition is key.
