The hips do not lie. Did he just quote Shakira?
Lolololool
Copywrite infringement. Shakira better sue him
No he said the hips don’t have a tendency to be dishonest ! Your brain translates as hips don’t lie pretty slick! Bill knows… how to stay low.
Pretty much one of the best stops, maybe tied with magic slide. But one thing to keep in mind: It's scary. And I don't mean just for you, for bystanders as well. I've had multiple occasions where people would get really scared and one time even upset with me because they got scared by the stop. People think you are falling for a moment when they see you stop.
I can relate hahah specially when the street is crowded with lots of pedestrians and cars!
That's the best part of the stop. I've scared many people coming up fast from behind, then slamming into the slid. Love it
Best skate when no pedestrians are around who can get scared. Avoid weekends and evenings.
@@Alex-kr7zr It's cars as well.
@@MrMokey24 True, also avoid areas with a lot of traffic for city skating or skate when there is little traffic, e.g. during the day or maybe in the night.
I wanted to personally thank you for your powerstop tutorials. I just got back into skating after 25 years and can fairly reliably powerstop after 3-4 weeks of practice.
I definitely agree it's not as hard to learn as people make it out to be. For me, once I relearned outside edges with crossovers, it was a simple matter of putting together the outside leg carving plus pivoting the inside leg onto outside edge. The rest was a matter of finding the right timing, balance and angles.
Same, had to relearn using the outer edge of inner foot
You're an inspiration Bill!
Still the stop I am trying to master. I don't practice the other types because my failed power stops turn into power slides, magic slides, etc anyway! 🤣
Great point, you do accidentally go through the powerslide and magic phase while learning the powerstop.
@@BillStoppard haha nice way to sell the powerstop. While learning powerstop you will learn the other stops accidently :D
LMFAO opposite problem here, I can't learn powerslide because I keep power stopping
If I could accidentally do the magic slide I would forget about all other slides because I'd be obsessed with it as my main technique lol
@@wheelsonfire1982 I envy you. Lol. The power stop not only looks cool but I also like the fact I don't have to turn my back on the direction I'm going to do it. Power sliding makes me nervous because of that but I consider it easier to pull off. 😕
its kinda fun seeing different kinds of skating. I play a lot of ice and roller hockey and the lil stop and pose after every stop makes me giggle everytime. Keep it up man, fun stuff.
Always a pleasure seeing your tips!
Practice practice practice! I have mastered power slide now smashing the power stop ! You are the grandmaster of urban assult skating !!!
I'm the opposite lol I can do a powerstop quite well but I can seem to pivot my foot in the way that a powerlide needs me to
Thanks! Nice progression, enjoy that satisfying powerstop SDU!
I love everything about inline skating an this is incredible thank you bill.
just needed this video rn.. thanks
I like your stopstyle so cool!
Motivates me!
4:38 I like your well-trained posture regained the balance. Your videos are very helpful, inspired me to skate in the urban in Toronto. I will try to avoid touching the boot with the wheel. ;)
Learning how to parallel turn unlocks many slides and maneuvers including this one! It's an awesome move everyone should able to learn.
back in 90s when we rolled pro-street style in Belgrade, powerstop was unthinkable concept, reserved only for ice skates. So, every critic today of that way of stopping comes from someone that does not know to perform it, and there is no shame in not knowing to perform powerstop because it is not an easy concept, it is risky, it is intuitively hard to master so i understand resistance toward it but also my intuition tells me that there is no bigger badassery than powerstop. Great video, Powerstoppard
I agree! I get much coaching on the stops from those who...do not have a powerstop! Too many skaters skip learning the powerstop because the flashier tricks are enticing. But if someone spends as much time on a powerstop as they would on rotations, they will get it.

Definitely needed to see myth 8th getting debunked. I'm always too scared to try power-stopping at high speeds because I thought it was impossible. Now I know it can be done.
Parallel slides have been used at high speed for decades in Switzerland in down hill skating, its thier preferred method of srubbjng off speed or coming to a complete stop, if you are interested look up Nathan Swiss school and he explains this very well
I've found that every single technique that involves a transition from rolling to sliding depends mostly on commitment, regardless of speed. Actually, IMO it's way easier at high speeds; think about braking from low speed vs braking on a hill - the latter needs less pressure and has less tendency to impart an unwanted torque. I learned the stop by doing a ton of downhill slaloms until I got the feel for the angle I needed.
Back when i played roller hockey wich was after ice hockey i played both, there was few kids who could do this even alot of the kids who came from ice hockey couldnt really do it and had to manage there speed more, this was the mid 2000s. But yeah u start it with ur inside skate more and its a sudden stop, its not like on ice where ur gunna drift some so u cant do this stop at super super high speeds i mean you mean if ur crazy good at it but i always did it at a medium-fast speed and it tripped up players all the time.
its a joy to watch skilled inline skaters
Ever since I picked up inline skating in the late 90s/early 2000s, the powerstop is what I've always done. While I can only do it on my dominate side, it seemed the most natural to me and it was the only stopping method I could accurately predict where I would actually end up.
Dude! Love the shirt!
Pretty cool, thx
The powerstop at 7:22 is just one of legends, holy guacamole
Thanks B!!
Very cool
Thanks 👍
A very key thing with this slide and with most is for the skater to be aware and pay attention to the surface they are skating on. On smooth concrete or tarmac it's pretty easy at any speed. On tarmac that has stones mixed in as you get on London roads for example it can be an easy route to a serious accident and injuries.
Loving the content! Could you put out a tutorial for the backwards strides shown at 4:27?
Hey Bill! Great vid as always! How long (or short) does it take you to wear out a set of wheels? Can imagine if you do a lot of powerstops it goes pretty fast.
89a on rink floor lasts probably two seasons or more I would say
Busting some common myths there! Great explanation of what the real powerstop should entail. Wtf was number 6 again? 😂 The high speed one from last year’s vid was just incredible! 🔥🖤
Thanks so much Emily🙏🖤!! The wtf moments were plentiful in the cut footage. Will try to get this year’s Bill up to last year’s standards for you! 😉
Tips from Power stop Jedi Master!
I am broadening my stop repertoire but the power stop is still my go to stop.
When asked my response is always the same: drag stop and power stop are all you really need.
Cool dude! I guess I'm going to try this on some 125mm tri skates.
And how did it go with the 125mm wheels?
good way and tutorials
i don't use the same techning to "trigger" this stop. But very good video.
(and we don't have the same definition of high speed ... 20 meters long slides is what you'll often get in fast downhills ... but everything you said was correct)

Esti taree❤
First time I tried this stop, oh, 20 years ago, it sent me out into traffic. Scared me off of trying it ever again. That said, might dust it off and try and learn the power slide this summer.
you shouldnt try out things on the street but on a safe place.
def practice away from traffic, parking lots etc if you have to
Hmm. I would still train both sides at the same time. It helps with truly understanding what your body is doing and gives you a lot more freedom and versatility. Just skate back and forth stopping on each side. One way to think about the stop when learning: move your inside skate (the skate on the inside of the direction of your pivot) slightly ahead of your outside skate and then bend both knees in the direction of the pivot.
Thanks Bill...I am gonna master it..powerstop is a thing compared to other types !!
Yes, own it! you'll love it.
Power stop champ right here ❤🔥
100% agree on pivot and consistency
Ahh I get so stuck with the ankle movements in the pivot, committing to the sudden change of direction, feels like my wheels are going to bite and I'll go flying.
my skates have a very very soft wheels that made impossible to learn to powerstop. But those were trashy wheels, now i upgraded and i'm about to try to learn again!
This is easier with good soft wheels, but works all the same. It's more about the angle of the skate to the floor that makes it slide, not so much how hard the wheels are.
Well, after number 6 I've got no choice now! Thanks Bill.
nice sound track
Gday, now I've watched many of yours and others on the subject of the power stop and for the last few months have pretty well just mastered the power slide on one side only.... but, my stats are as follows, 203 cms tall, and 132 kgs in weight. Now being a bit of a physics person... these stats can place a bit of havic on the physics of the power stop procedure, running only 85a hardness wheels, I'm wondering if I need to go to harder wheels in order to get the same sort of grip/slip to weight ratio that you would be rocking at your dimensions, would I be on the right track ??? (of course the pun is intended!). Thanks heaps dude!
Im picturing Ace Ventura saying “well alrighty then” every stop
Hey :) what muscule u need to use more when u do power stop ;) thanks
"The hips do not have a tendency to be dishonest" so true Bill so true
The hips are so opposed to speaking untruths that someone should write a song about it!
Great video! Any tips on practicing powerstop on sharp surfaces? I'm a beginner and just scared as hell when it comes to streets with uneven/rocky asphalt texture, even a simple t-stop is so hard to commit. So a couple of times I just couldn't do anything and rolled down the street praying LOL.
Cheers from Humber Bay Shores!
At least for the t stop I'd like to to your fear away.
On the T-Stop you are mainly just driving as your are driving without breaking.
The stopping lag can balance you since you are somehow still standing on 2 legs and to not turn while t-stoping you just maintain 90% of your weight at the driving leg.
One time I did catch myself after getting stuck with a t-stop. T-stop is really nothing you should feel unsafe for.
@@blackyraypatrick9041 thanks for you support! The funny thing is that a couple of days after this comment I suddenly just got it. I don't know what exactly happened, but I realized that I can drag stop at any speed/surface. It had struggled with it before, but at that moment I just kind of felt it, and since then I've used t-stop without any difficulties LOL. Now I'm aiming at powerstop, as I really feel I need to be able to stop faster if I want to skate around the city.
@@WingRabbit91 absolutely true I somehow managed to forget how to do a standard powerslide.
I often make a faky spin into powerslide depending on my speed. But I can not turn frontal into it anymore.... :/
hola un saludo desde mexico, un video del mantenimiento de tus patines de favor, que hay que aser y que se necesita, gracias !!!!!!!!!!
MIssed ya Bill, I almost feel strong enough to power stop at slow speed.
I should just get the Adapt GT Bill Stoppard..
Hahahaha.....as Summer draws to a close it's Ice Skating season again......got to try and get the hockey stop this season.....parallel and magic on rink floor is in the bag, magic on asphalt in the bag, but parallel depends on the asphalt surface currently.....
That is THE stop method I wanna master. I'm guessing is good to try to master it both sides to minimize eating only one side of the wheels. What can you tell us about wheel durability and power slides?
To slide on rollerblades, people usually recommend a wheel hardness of 85A, I used an 82A and I found I could still slide fairly well, however I wouldn’t go below that hardness if you will be in an urban environment and stopping fairly often
GL with "powerstoping" with no sliding and swinging your arms while full stopping from 50-60 km/h
I am newbie to inline skating, and i just can't do perfect powerstop with my current skating skills. But I began trying to do power stop like turn of minimal radius, and it start working. May be it's not right to consider powerstop as a turn, but if it helps why not?)
It all takes persistence, patience and practice. The 3 P’s...I’m p’ing every day! Great instruction 👍
i miss bill and your vids
Only stop that makes sense to me. No spinning around and i always get to use my dominant size.
How fast do you go through wheels?
Do I need certain rolls for that? Cuz im always afraid of them being too soft and having too much grip :c
How fast does it wear out the wheels?
Hi, great video as always. is hockey stop possible on speed skates such as PowerSlide Trinity R2 (3 wheels)? Are there any fundamental differences that would make it impossible, or is it just harder to learn? Thanks.
3 wheels may be harder to slide on due to the reduced stability. However it is still able to be done. What really is the main factor is the wheel hardness (I recommend 85A or above, but it’s doable with 82A as well)
Especially for speed skates, I use urban skates so idk if speed skates would be harder or easier for slides though, I imagine it would be harder
Really strangely I power slide one side and hockey stop/power stop on the other
Me too... Because my natural transition to backwards is the other way than my stronger side for parallel turns/slides 😉
Which wheels are these?
You always seem to powerstop counterclockwise.
Can you do the same clockwise?
Nice tips po Asta la vista baby
one question I have is how the weight on the leading foot is distributed when initiating the stop. Is it distributed equally, more towards the front or more towards the back of the skate? I'm quite afraid of stopping like this because I occasionally just end up losing my grip and falling.
@@alexeybondarev8093 thanks for the tip, gonna try it out!
Use the whole blade, too much heel drive and you will spin out. Almost all the weight should should be on the back skate on entry, then shift to both, then the front.
@@BillStoppard Where are some good, safe places in Toronto for me to practice this? I've been skating for over 20 years but mostly for commuting, etc never bothered to learn this stop because it freaked me out too much. Might be worth making this my summer project.
If it were "nothing complicated" 3:50 and not "hard to learn" 5:12, we would see the PowerStop on both sides. Yet, even from an extremely experienced skater we here never see a single attempt on the "wrong" side. That's for me almost like the definition of _hard_ to learn.
To my experience, even the weaker side informs the stronger side in a _positive_ way. Learning to throw a ball with the weaker arm is helpful even for the stronger arm and comes in handy when there isn't enough time to switch arms before to make the play. It is easy to imagine that this can be the case for the PowerStop too.
Haha, no pitcher ever, worked on his weaker side throw, unless he was truly ambidextrous. But if you're throwing a ball with your weak side, while wearing a baseball glove, I'm impressed! I've done and filmed many powerstops on my weak side but always revert to the strong side. I'm not looking for parlour tricks but the best stopping mechanism possible. This is not complicated like playing the violin, it just takes persistence and concentration.
I would agree with Bill here, I've been sliding for I over a decade and can slide both ways, if sliding for fun in a safe place bith sides are fine, however in the real world scenarios like street skating I always revert to my dominant side as a matter of instinct and safety.
Right, if you don't adjust your reaction to the environment but to your skill difference after a decade of training, that is in my books the very definition of difficult to learn.
@@monowheeling and again you forget that he is using his camera stick everytime he drives.
The stick influences where your weight lies and in which direction its easier to turn.
@@blackyraypatrick9041 LOL
With the CAT Freshie
If it slide too, then whats the difference between this and the parallel slide?
yes Bill they don't often lie
I’ve got an issue where I can’t seem to keep forward momentum. Every time I throw a powerslide I end up doing a really sharp left turn. I’ll even twirl sometimes!
swing your feet out further and try to get your skates on a sharper angle.
Stay low and bend 'em knees
#7 way of the giant pumpkin approach
Great video as always Bill.
Slightly off topic, but one piece of BS (not "BS" abbreviation of Bill Stoppard, but the other "BS") I hear all the time at the rink I work at, when customers ask "what's easier, roller (quad) skates or blades/inlines", is staff/management that only know a little bit about skating trot out that myth that roller skates are easier than inlines; whereas actually it depends on a lot of things; such as whether you did inlines or roller (quad) skates previously, or ice skating, as you will have honed muscle memory and skills from that, which will affect which appears more natural...otherwise one is not harder or easier, just different.
I do think quads are much easier for beginners to get up and rolling because of the extra ankle stability, but the forward backward balance thing can leave new quad skaters with very bad injuries. Quads get difficult when you use them for things more suited to inline. I do hate seeing people go to quads for perceived ease, when they could just use the most current technology for their specific needs.
One thing you didn't mention is you need hard wheels. These slide better than softer compounds.
👍👍👍👍👍
Is Bill doing this cool head jerk at the end of every stop??
Is it just me or is there something a bit Ace Ventura about this? Like a glove
So we have to think of Shakira while power stopping. Nice..
what is the hardness of the wheels?
85, 86, 88A?
88A mostly when he was asked.
Like I was thinking a Magic Stop is just as a Hockey Stop. You proved it . That’s a magic Stop . Not Power Stop.
Not even close to a ‘magic slide’ You really should look this stuff up before you act so confident!! 🤣
@@BillStoppard Search Ricardo Lino Power Stop. Your skates are parallel and you slide with the two back wheels. Nothing I haven’t seen before at a Skate Rink. Sorry Dude.
@@BillStoppard Can’t admit now . Lolz , Saying Power Stop on every video…
This shit is hilarious
GG
First to power stop by
Not lie... Pararel slides is the most difficult to maintain its consistency / stability
Bill Stoppard: cutting the BS out of the Best Skaters since Before Skating.
I thought it was called a PowerSlide and you are suppose to slide as long as you can. Now you are telling me it's for Stopping! Oh maaan.
Powerslide and powerstop are not the same 😅 also a powerslide is a stop mainly, it just slides longer because only 4 (3) wheels create friction instead of 8 (6)... Of course you can use powerslide as a trick but then I'd try something cooler like an acid slide for example 😝
downhill riders do power stop at 90km/h +..
I had soft wheels power stop was easy
Somebody pls tell him it's called "parallel slide"....
Ok but stop making it look so easy damn
Flasehoods? I reckon that was intended to be Falsehoods…
Otherwise, good points.
Are you hinting at a typo? Would love to know where!
@@BillStoppard might wanna double check your thumbnail
Is very ez XD
the parallel slide itself is the biggest myth ;)
everything is a powerstop!!!
indeed
Parrallel slide is highly conditional and is radically different than the powerstop.
5:28
'there was nothing else, I was just trying to get parallel and slide for as long as possible'
You've just defined a parallel slide mate
Yeah… at some point I kinda thought there was some kind of distinction between “parallel side” and “power stop”. Now I’m confused again… it seems like there is a continuous spectrum depending on edge angles and how long you slide for. At what point does a parallel slide become a power stop?
@@maloneycraig A parallel slide is done for the sake of the slide only, often with special wheels and on consistent pavement only. A powerstop is about stopping quickly, anywhere, with only an element of slide involved.
Slide is only a single component of the powerstop. You wouldn’t pivot into a parallel slide creating as much friction as possible from the entry.
@@BillStoppard @char1ie get it right, a parallel slide is when you start sliding and never stop!!!
