Thanks for the shout out! Just swapped wheels on my MF500s and TR6s, so now both rockered with 76mm 78A and 80mm 82A. So much fun! My mum bought me the shirt for my 40th! (she asked what I wanted first)
It is a real pleasure to see you from the sofa at home from Spain! I'm starting in the world of skates recently and seeing you motivates and relaxes me! A hug and namaste.
Good day. Took up blading v late in life. Joined windy city skaters one night decked 5x hobbled back to hotel n loved it. Always been coordinated but cant really improve much like t stop etc. Dream to be able to cruise like you guys..obv nowhere near but just freedom and confidence and thus joy. Hard to get next level wout being able to control speed..and remove noisy brakes. Tks 4 advice Rich
My daughter and I have been pleasantly surprised when you mentioned me at the end of the skate flow video! Watching you skating motivates me a lot and I learn every time I watch all you guys (Leon, Alex, and you) . Never stop doing this! By the way, it could be nice to continue those teaching lessons that you started some months ago but with a collection of tricks on Wizards!
I honestly wish I could flow skate as effortlessly as you make it look. Big props! A question I have is... how long have you been skating and how do you maintain your balance to turn because for some reason, I can't seem to do it. Granted, I'm still a beginner. Another question I have is... would you consider skating as more of a career or a passionate hobby? I have recently gotten obsessed with your vids, thanks for putting so much effort into them. Namaste :)
I would love to know the secret to really progress. I find it difficult to really nail new stuff. My braking is still terrible. A flow like yours ...one day, would be the ultimate😊😊
mantis40 The secret is just don't give up. Go skate as much as you possibly can , and just add experience. You will improve with the confidence you get. Takes a lot of years to skate like these guys. (Btw I'm a beginner myself , I stop with the brake attached on the right skate lol.. Now and then I try to brake by making a T with foot behind , it goes pretty well.)
Вечерние съемки довольно выразительные и красивые в свете фонарей.Мне очень нравятся. Люблю кататься по вечернему городу сам.Жаль что приходит зима.И довольно долго не встать будет на коньки роликовые.Но тем слаще и желаннее будет лето.
What are the basics of a good looking stride and flow? Always when I skate, or see people skating, look at it and I can't tell what is it lacking. That little bit that would make skating look good; professional.
2 questions : 1 what's some good flat ground tricks that you can do while cruising in the streets. 2. Can you do a tutorial on how to go fast downhill with normal skates, I got a very short frame and it starts very soon to wobble and getting shaky even if I try to stay strong as possible. One love peace
Crouch down, knees bent one foot slightly in front of the other, fore arms on your knees (like you're squatting for a pooh lol) eyes looking through your praying hands.. If you want to slow down a bit, stand up arms out straight shoulder height like your standing on a cross.. sounds like a steep hill
I'll never quite get that toe roll teapot - 10/10 for difficulty but I've never seen it look stylish. Everyone, no matter how good wobbles into it / out of it! Has nothing on the steeze of that moonwalk a few seconds later.
Hi Shaun, very good stuff you do, really thank you :) Now my Qs: 1. Can you make a film when you ride most basic, low budget skates from market? I checked your Wizards and they are awesome, but this price is killer... seeing you doing tricks in 50-100$ skates would be fun :) 2. Can you recommend optimal skills for developing urban skating? What should be learned first? It's super unique for everyone but maybe there are some golden rules? 3. Make it sense to read books about skating, when everything is on YT? Do you recommend any? 4. What music do you listen when you ride? The same as on films? I doubt... 5. You always welcome with "Namaste", are you a religious person or this is just nice way to say hello for you? 6. Since when you skates? Probably in Canada kids are going to school on ice skates? ;) sorry for bad joke ;) Piotr
Hey Shaun, I love watching your flows, your enthusiasm for skating is infectious. Q: You roll 5 wheels a lot but, presumably, this wasn't always the case; could you talk about the evolution of your skate preferences, how you ended up rolling 5 wheels, and what you see yourself rolling in the future?
Rich if you have a look at the early mushroom blading videos, Better than Baseball and those around that time (check thier channel) Shaun is in a couple of those very briefly and he looks about 15 yrs old, skinny little kid hahah. all the best mate.
@@RichHayterSkater i think he appears in 2 of them. cant remember exactly which ones. when i watched them back in march or so i did comment on his (Shains) current video at the time but even then i wouldnt know which videos i posted that comment in. those better tan baseball etc are quite long videos and as i say he is only in them for 5 mins or so. so you will have to check them all the way through. just look for ones in the first 20 or so posts and where todd and joey are young. the ones with their mate who is like marylin manson, vaguely, todd cuts his arm open with a knife in one. he will be in those ones
I do have a question for a Q&A. Would you do all your tricks and evolutions with the same ease on much softer wheels, say 78A? I got a pair of skates when I had very little knowledge and they came with 78A wheels. I find them too "catchy" on the ground to make slides and rotations. Now, that they are worn, I'm planning to replace them with some 84A wheels. I'm wondering if a source of my problems is not softness of my wheels. I'm skating outdoors on tarmac, mainly in much warmer temperatures than on this video. Namaste. ;)
78A is intended for indoors skating, definitely too soft for the road, of course they feel catchy, you will notice the difference big time (but don't expect to automatically have everything figured out, you'll have to adjust 😉) 84A wheels will also last you a whole lot more.
You know, these transitions that you make make me go back and pause to see the slow motion, then try to make the move, but one thing is clear to me, the shaking of the body makes all the difference . I've been following your tutorials too. You and your class skates too much ... Do you usually teach?
Hey Shaun, how do you get the confidence to practise in public when you're a beginner? Also what do you recommend for learning when you live in a really hilly area?
VampireofEmotion Don't care about others. Don't wait till you get sorry you didn't do it . Think it's your last day on earth. The last day you will ever be able to do what you want to. And , I do it but I don't recommend in particular if you're a minor , but I like to drink a beer or two before. For the learning in a really hilly area , just go to the spot that is the flattest , that's what I would do.
I remember starting out trick skating and now that I look back I definitely didn’t look like a pro, but I was so dedicated to solve that trick and having lots of fun doing it that it felt good to go out and do it again. If it makes sense, start stacking tricks in your city and perfect the obstacles, trust the process the flow will come
I still cant ride scissor while riding backwards for some reason I can only skate fakie and I'm not sure how to fix my posture, if you could give me some tips I would appreciate it.
I've got a question for you... when are you and alex going to make it happen with bill stoppard??? You know we all want it =) another cheeky question, choose my next skates fr1s in blue or powerslide next??? Thanks love you guys bye
I hate to make it about money, but it's one of the inescapable parts of life. I'm curious about what makes the wizards so pricey, material/production costs, markups, and any other business stuff I dont understand. (Not sure if this has been answered somewhere)
Wow! You are really skilled! 😃👍 I like your tricks and the floating movements. Where did you shoot this? It seems there was already snow - here in Berlin, Germany not.
Hey Shaun, I've recently really wanted to get into flow skating through the city but I don't really know where to begin with regards to what skills I should learn. What are some skills I should learn to being my journey with?
Question: How do you feel about the future of inline skating, worldwide speaking, do you think it's making a comeback? Will it be trendy? Thanks for the amazing content, i'm just starting in this world and this is one of the channels that inspired me! Saludos desde Argentina
How do you do the ice skating 180 smooth turns? Do the length of your skate works better for balance than normal fitness skate? How about people who are shorter than you would it be hard for them to use such a skate with long base when they try to do these switching tricks? Can you make a video explaining five (more or less) tricks we used to see in your videos to become pro in flow skating as your style?
hi, I'm Rakesh from India, I'm going to start to learn rollerblades. How long have you been skating, you are just amazing and your stunts. How long the aggressive blades wheels last after all these jumps and stuffs?
Hey Shaun, a question for your future Q&A, do you know how steep the learning curve is to go from solid abilities with quad roller skates and/or ice skates and transition over to roller blades? -Also, if you're skating a lot how often do you have to replace your wheels?
Sometimes I wonder, why there almost aren't any cars or people on the streets when you are skating? ^^ Also, I really like your Videos, they are extremely inspiring!
Hey Shaun, love your videos. I am a beginner skater and progressing well. Leveled up today! starting to transition front to back and vise versa easily now. Although I have trouble keep composure or balance when skating backwards. What's the best way to maintain composure when you find yourself unintentionally Gazelling all over the place?
Thanks for asking. Check out this video for a break down. But it comes down to timing the toe push with your take off. th-cam.com/video/gSpZBCE2e0c/w-d-xo.html
Does the quality o the skate matter or can you find comfort and have fun with even cheap skates? I’m looking to getting my first pair and the roller derby vtech 500 caught my eye. Not only are they inexpensive but I’ve seen good reviews on Amazon.
Question - what is best way to progress from using heel brake to without one on steeper downhills? T-stops, powerstops, etc are much easier on gradual or flat declines.
Those moves, like front closed lion, are almost what i am practicing since few weeks. Happy to see another take on those moves ! How do you call the same move, but legs crossed ?
Do you have any tips for someone trying to learn the hockey stop? I've watched your video and lots of others but I just can't seem to initiate the slide or slide smoothly.
Thanks for the shout out! Just swapped wheels on my MF500s and TR6s, so now both rockered with 76mm 78A and 80mm 82A. So much fun! My mum bought me the shirt for my 40th! (she asked what I wanted first)
Thank you for the shout out. Keep enjoying the ride!
It is a real pleasure to see you from the sofa at home from Spain! I'm starting in the world of skates recently and seeing you motivates and relaxes me! A hug and namaste.
I been roller blading since 9 yrs old and I’m 35 still loven it.good video
I really loved it man, the music, the environment, the night, your flawless lines, even the homeless gave you props, it was awesome.
Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Beautiful flow, pure inspiration.

Love from Cyprus. Unbelievable the level you are reaching by the day
This is so beautiful! Thank you for documenting these :) I just started skating today! Hoping for more videos more often!
Congratulations! Keep skating and I will keep making videos.
From spain thank you for your videos.
What a pleasure to watch your videos!
Awesome flow skate, really gave me an itch to go out skating immediately, totally forgot that it was raining all day!
Patinas hermoso, me relaja verte hacerlo !!! Solo fluyes 😊
The beginning was so sick!!
Cool.. Liking that move at 0:50 I must try that.. Haven't even seen rest of video yet ha. First reaction..
Nice smooth transitions man.. This is what I aspire to
Damn..
Just got the hang of those cross behinds and I was trying some different entries. The Mohawk cross behind works great.
Damn that rotation at 0:38...need to learn that also. Tomorrow i gonna practice in the hall. Love your flow man.
I got my inline skates bought and now I'm waiting for Christmas so I can go out and actually use them! You are awesome Shaun!

Вечерние съемки довольно выразительные и красивые в свете фонарей.Мне очень нравятся. Люблю кататься по вечернему городу сам.Жаль что приходит зима.И довольно долго не встать будет на коньки роликовые.Но тем слаще и желаннее будет лето.

Que show, shaun é o máximo, não só ele, mas o Leon, também.
That's nice you inspire me so I have skating shoes and still straggling to get balanced, however I will keep trying.
Your the G.O.A.T. bro the first video I watched of yours, I subscribed
Amazing rollerblading!!!! Great video!!

I am still testing many different positions of the frame in my Seba Boot.
Still looking for the perfect spot.
Thanks for mention me.

hey! What is the title of the song used in the video?
yeah i need it to my night skate session, sooo much flow as always shaun!!!
Wow! You are really skilled! 😃👍 I like your tricks and the floating movements.
Where did you shoot this? It seems there was already snow - here in Berlin, Germany not.

This is pr80? Or 76?
hi, I'm Rakesh from India, I'm going to start to learn rollerblades. How long have you been skating, you are just amazing and your stunts. How long the aggressive blades wheels last after all these jumps and stuffs?
Can you explain the preferation of the tri vs 4 inline wheels? Hearing more people prefer the 4.
Hey Shaun, great video, I would like hear what's your current wheel setup and why?
Thank you for the great question.
Hey, txn for video.
A question was the exercises to get better control for advanced.🖖
I am completely new in inline skating what is your advise.
Hey Shaun, a question for your future Q&A, do you know how steep the learning curve is to go from solid abilities with quad roller skates and/or ice skates and transition over to roller blades? -Also, if you're skating a lot how often do you have to replace your wheels?
Dude it looks si easy , but once you are in your skates you feel so heavy and realize that achieving that is sooo hard and so much work and practice
Thank you, my friend.
Beautiful moves "Nimependa" that is in Kiswahili it means I love it shout out to me Edwin Rono from Kenya
What skates do you use and have you ever tried aggressive inline skaten?
Sometimes I wonder, why there almost aren't any cars or people on the streets when you are skating? ^^
Also, I really like your Videos, they are extremely inspiring!
🙏 thank you MrsMurphy
Nice scating

Hi! Is the music in the video the one u lissening in the vids?
Any tips if your skates only have three wheels? I'm used to speed skating, but I want to be able to do more tricks.
This is both ill and dope
And sick?
How do you do the high jumps?
Thanks for asking. Check out this video for a break down. But it comes down to timing the toe push with your take off. th-cam.com/video/gSpZBCE2e0c/w-d-xo.html
Nd i am a beginner which type of inline skates should i use so that i could also stunt with them only when learnt
Hi it’s Keira
I love your video

Great question. This deserved a whole video but I will attempt to cover it in the up coming Q and A.
THIS VIDEOS IS SO SICK!!!!!
Hi, I am very new to inline skating, and I am trying very much to skate as much as possible to improve. Do you have any tips for improvement??
Those moves, like front closed lion, are almost what i am practicing since few weeks. Happy to see another take on those moves !
How do you call the same move, but legs crossed ?
where can I find good size 16 inline skates and not run into the Rollerblade xl pros?
That's a nice BLADERS shirt, is that from a hockey team?
Hey Shaun, I’m a Oak Raider fan and need that shirt... LOL can you send a link to it?
Soundtrack : Mobbest Deepest : - Quietest Stormiest
Do you have any tips for someone trying to learn the hockey stop? I've watched your video and lots of others but I just can't seem to initiate the slide or slide smoothly.
Hey Shaun, does Alex also record with a GoPro and if so, which model? Thanks in advance.
What's the worst injury you or alex have sustained skating, any broken bones?
Hey Seanarooni, you smoke the reefer while ya skate?
Yow the music makes me sleepy 😴
Hey! I would quite like to know if it’s okay to skate in a city with aggressive skates (coz that’s what I use) loving the content😃
Do you have kids? How many times a week should a beginner skater go rollerblading to improve and be confidence at Street? Excuse my English
How many times did the camera man fall🤔
Where can I get a Bladers top?
I just cracked the toe on one of my boots, can I just use glue to fix it?
how long time do you skate?
