The one dislike is the moss in the cracks that got runover.
😂😂😂
hahahahahhaha! I have to get a dislike; it validates all the likes :)
Those are grass though😅
Those effortless spins give me life
Awww thank you!
You have a type of charisma that's very attractive
Thank you very much :)
Right?! I can’t get enough of her. I wish she lived near me so I could learn from her in person 😩
Hi indian hehe 😏😂
Mr.dirty is a lucky man 🤣
Agreed
And could we just emphasise, especially for newer skaters: pads and helmet! *When* (not if) people fall, protective gear can be the difference between standing right up, or leaving a blood trail and going to hospital. (Experienced skaters know their own skills and risk level, do what you want. But newbies *are* *going* *to* *fall* *over*)
Sure:) I love protective gear. I wear it at the skate park.
Anybody know where I can get some protective gear for fat people? I bought the largest I could find on Amazon and it fits me snugly but my BF is fat and muscular so it was a no 😢
@@BP-yg4lr same I skated inside until my helmet came still haven't fallen and its day 5 but I know it's coming and when it does I'm ready haha
@@creshiell moxi. Its preorder right now but they have the Thick set that is bigger than the l/xl
creshiell fellow fat skater here. What works for me is getting pads with straps and just buying 1” black elastic and extending them myself :)
When I saw your videos I wanted to go skating so my parents bought skates for me and my mom bought a pair too. It’s so much fun!!!!! 😁⛸🛹
Awwww yeah! So glad you can skate together :)
HAMBURGER 2469 best parents ever
My mom got Lollys after I started skating too (on my own pair of Lollys) :) have fun with your mom!!! Skate moms are the best!!
Ohh i wanna skate with my kids too when i have sum
I'm just glad you are not a pole dance instructor, cause I know I would be trying out everything you teach.
Hilarious !!! 🤩
LOL!!!!
There’s a girl on insta who pole dances and roller skates at the same time 😍 it’s the most impressive thing you would ever witness.
@@rollthedice5682 omg please send link i wana seee
It's called, being unpretentious and it's THE most attractive quality a human can have. DD's got it in spades! 😍
Claire ... thank you so much for this comment. I appreciate it immensely.
So I discovered these videos along with planet roller skate about a year ago and was immediately swayed to buy some skates and skate outdoors. I thought since I skated as a kid in a rink it wouldn’t take me very long!! Boy was I wrong but these videos have helped me with my progress over this past year and this one is so educational! I unfortunately learned the tough way but this video is going to save someone from eating a lot of asphalt! Also keep trying!!! How far I’ve came in a year is amazing and surprises me constantly 💖
Congratulations! I am so happy to hear of your progress. Keep it up!
Girl, same!
hows your progress going...
Same!!! Busted my ass on my first attempt and went back home to wait for my pads
you have the cool aunt vibes and it makes me so happy
"windy sound effects for that REAL outdoor feel " LOL.. I love your sense of humor and the way you teach
Got my moxi skates yesterday, but I’ve been watching you and planetrollerskate for a month! I mastered bubbles yesterday and had my husband laughing when I said, “down with the butt up with the gut.” You are such an amazing teacher and everything is explained so concisely.
Where did you get your skates I have my old ones from about 40 years ago LOL I need new ones
Teresa Smith c7s, moxi, chaya, impala skates are in rn
Some people just positively radiate positivity, and you are one of them! You're sunshine incarnate, I swear 😍
can you do outdoor rollerskating-backwards skating safety?💜
As long as there aren't TOO many cracks when starting out. I'm actually teaching my 16 year old right now outdoors. Mainly in the street, so she's getting really good at going straight, but it's time to start working on her turning. She would get to a turn at the rink before they all shut down, of course, and revert back to bubbles/scissors and lose pretty much all of her momentum. Trying to get her to lean into the turns and pick her feet up.
We've got a lead on a MUCH smoother surface, so once it stops snowing here, we plan on heading up to the local elementary school parking lot. They have, what they call, a "loop". Basically it's an area for dropping off the kids that has a little, grassy, "island" in the center that the buses and cars circle around so it's the perfect area to simulate a rink situation. :)
Absolutely.
This is perfect timing. With everything going on I’m taking advantage of having more free time and really dedicating that extra time to learn how to skate properly.
You have perfectly addressed everyone of my skating outdoor fears!
Just did my first trail skate. 😍 Totally used all of this advice. I did 7 miles. This was my first long distance skate. I was definitely bringing up the rear 😂
This is great! Can you make a video on how to strengthen your weak leg? I feel so unstable on my none dominant leg.
Great suggestion!
I also need this
Me too!
My right calf actually hurts when I skate cause my right leg working so hard to compensate for my non dominant left
Yes please
Aloha from maui!!! I used to skate as a kid ,I am 61 now and your videos got me back out there!! Your videos and moxie girl videos are awsum for beginners. Thank you
That is awesome! Do it!!!
Beginner skater here!
I just got my skates yesterday and I’m watching this video as I sweat my brains out in the hot sun w/ them on rn. 😂 This is so awesome and scary!
My 23yr old daughter got me to get some beach bunny moxies. Her and her friends are starting to skate and have invited this 45yr old to join them. Great mom and daughter time! Great excercise. Thank you sooooo much for these videos!!!! Xoxo
My husband laughs at me when I bring a broom but I don’t care haha!! I’d rather be able to skate more confidently than be hung up on all the rocks! Going to check out your wheel video right now, sounds like exactly what I was looking for!
So true!
She moves so flawlessly, it’s amazing
I just got a pair a few days ago and I am way to confident... I kept repeating in my head be fearless girl... In my mind I thought I looked like you 😌 but in reality my legs were shaking no balance watsoever and my husband said i was all the way leaning forward im surprised i didnt eat it lmaooo 🤣
Anywhozles thank you I love your skate tutorials 👏🏾 By 2022 I should be a pro skater & by then I can drive up to huntington beach to skate at your rink!!! In the meantime its day 3 i got my knee pads on, your videos on repeat & im ready to get back out there wish me luck 🤞🏾😆
Exactly what happened to me lol in my mind I was skating like when I was 12 but just got my skates today and had a hard time lol but I am determined!!! 😂 lol
“Put your weight on your back foot”
Me: *slips and falls on her back
Put weight on back foot NOT rock your body weight to the back of your heel.
This is so helpful omgg I've been skating for 4 days out side (I'm counting the days and video taping my self and going back and reviewing what I'm doing right/wrong) and I keep falling *almost* every time I hit a crack or some grass and this makes so much sense I can't wait to get back out there!!!
I’ve had my 7year old daughter watching her and my sugar plum learn to skate in 1week she’s doing exactly what she’s demonstrating we’ve been skating outside for 3weeks love her ❤️🥰
She saying that’s her skate teacher 👩🏫
That is awesome!
Awwwww I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Aww! Just like 7 year old! He always askes to watch DDH! Plus, he’s improved so much in the last few weeks. Love thinking of this new generation of skaters!
I’m 21 and never skated before in my life. I just took it up 5 days ago and I’m obsessed with the feeling but still learning balancing/speed/turning everything lol. My dad and I go out to the empty movie parking lot near my house since nobody is there everyday and it’s so much fun! I hope learning on the rough parking lot will make skating on smoother surfaces easier when I get there lol
Awww I am so happy you get to skate with your dad!!!
Thank you for this! Our town doesn't have a rink nearby, so outdoors is our only choice. I never knew about the split stance--what a great option. I haven't skated in about 40 years and I appreciate the advice to practice 10 minutes a day. I got all the safety gear, too, b/c I don't want to chance any broken bones if I can help it. I'm sure I look a sight, but who cares--I'm happy!
Her let me go over all this rough stuff aggressive. I love her. Thank you for this video
It is so funny you mentioned bringing a broom outside because about two months before both covid and this video THATS EXACTLY WHAT I DID!!
This video was super helpful! I've been intimidated by the grassy gaps in trails but I think I'll give it another go now that I see you can get over them no problem :)
Glad it was helpful!
I'm so lucky my town has so many fantastic outdoor skating locations we have an old railway line that has been turned into a bike path with super smooth asphalt that runs all the way from one end of the town to the other and we also have some great car parks at the sports complex that are really nicely concreted which is good because our roads and footpaths can be quite rough
Are you talking about the Beltline?
What city? I'm looking for a good bike path.
In Detroit?
I fucking love how graceful you are. I can literally watch you all day.
Awww thank you :)
As always, SO good! And I have to say I felt so seen when you said skating outdoors is scary! 😆 For awhile I thought something was wrong with me for being nervous rolling around my neighborhood. But learning from your previous outdoor skating video, I focused more on the staggered stance and it changed my game! So thank you!
Love that!
I agree with this! I’m on day 17 of my daily skate challenge and i haven’t skated on my street yet because I’m scared! But after this video maybe today I’ll venture onto my street for the first time!
I really needed this. The parking lot by my house is full of grass cracks like this!
your nails in that red looks sooo gorgeous!!! i can't stop looking at them !!
Awww thank you. You know I am dying right now because I can not get to the nail lady :(
It’s my 4 day of skating and I learned how to skate backwards and only fell three times 😝 pretty proud of myself. I’ve been skating on the basketball court for about 2-3 hours a day
That is great!!!!
Hi. I JUST took our broom with me to the basketball court a week ago; so you can imagine my face when I saw your video come up on my feed. Lol
I'm hoping to visit Fountain Valley Skate Center when we can travel again. You made my day when you took a picture with me!
Awwwww yeah!!! See you at the rink :)
I’m here after watching the planet roller skate video! I would love more outdoor skating videos!!
More to come!
How can i like this 1000000 time... Did you know that this video will help some one 2yrs later. Thnks Debby. Love from Kenya
Been showing my daughter these videos because I'm teaching her how to skate outdoors, she's improved sooooo much.
I’ve been roller skating since the sixties but Covid has forced me outdoors. I first bought a cheap pair of skates and I couldn’t turn on them. I’m hoping that my new skates are going to be better. I’ve had to learn a lot about the mechanics of skates, especially cushions/bushings. The first pair I bought had zero shock absorbency and it actually messed with my knees. I’m thankful for these videos!
This lady is great she must be a skating Coach! Plus I love how she shows you how she cleans off the surface in the beginning lol ! I am a figure skater and have pic skates and been trying to pic skate! My roommate bought some roller skates so we can skate together & she doesn’t know how to skate at all, so this video is awesome because pic skating is very different from rolling skating! Thank you very much for your help!
I usually don't comment but daamnn I fucking love this woman, im a beginner and honestly quarantine made me buy roller skates, I love watching her videos and easy and fun way to learn...
I went skating on a walking trail ,it was nicely paved, but it went up and downhill. I could not figure out how to stop downhill, I wore my stopper down on my skates. The only way i could figure out how to stop, was to go for the grass, fell down three times, not good for a 57 year old. lol. So how do i stop when Im outside?
She has a video for that th-cam.com/video/EC9N2BhldII/w-d-xo.html I am also an older skater and that is one thing that I never learned in my youth. HOW TO STOP!
@@aquaopa1 thanks kizzy
Planet roller skate has a few videos that talk about hill bombing/skating downhill. I’ve tested it on my driveway (small scale) and on an underground car park. I went for the version where you go backward and you use a staggered stance using your toestop of the skate that’s the furthest downhill to control your rate of descent. I found it really easy but haven’t gotten the confidence up yet to go forward downhill yet!
I will revisit this topic for sure. Stay tuned.
Thank you so much! I have only been skating for a couple weeks and these tutorials have really helped me. I started on a basketball court and now I am street skating, even a bit downhill!
My downhill video comes out today!!!!
My wheels literally come in a couple of minutes bruh I can’t wait
How was it?
She makes it look soooooo easy!
Perfect! I was just thinking about this. Your right, I am terrified of tripping over pebbles. Thank you so much for helping me find a way to get skating outside again👍💖😘
You are so welcome!
so happy and thankful for these videos!! got a pair of skates after wanting some for the last 11 years and i’ve been nervous to use them for the first time since i’ve never skated, but i got pads and a helmet and i’m just gonna go for it!
An excellent teacher! Most just wanna show off their expertise and I thank you. I'm going to go to your site to decide what kind of skates I want to buy for the first time. I had life-threatening injuries that they wanted to amputate my lower legs that I escaped the hospital 11 years ago. If I don't wear proper Footwear High legs and back hurt. I actually wear professional dance sneakers in my feet and legs no longer hurt. Now I'm stuck with all these expensive sneakers
Thanks Dirty….some really useful tips here for beginners like my daughter and I…..can’t wait to practice these at the weekend. 😊
You are a very good teacher. Thank you.
This video is perfect timing! Those outdoor cracks get me every time 😂
thanks for the tips! Just got back into skating after not doing it for 20 years.
I love you... I haven't skated in 40 yrs. Yes I'm 62 and use to compete in the 70s and 80s. I'm trying to start skating all over again your tutorials are marvellous.
I tried roller skating outdoors today for the first time... I fell a lot! After I watched this video, I went back outside and I didn't fall, nor was I scared! Thanks so much!
Great to hear!
I just bought a new pair of skates and I was shocked by how difficult it was skating outdoors compared to roller blades. So happy to practice today now that I found this video.
Thanks sooo much. I am 57... Bought my skates 1 year ago... but today I am realllllly motivated to overcome the rest of my fear (skating on bicycle trails .. do not know how to bring my speed under control in case of obstacles)... today (=holiday) I will drive to a big parking area of a shopping center and try all your advices. Hmmmm.... as a child it was not that problem for me... maybe there was more fun than fear in my head...👧
As a child, we had a child's body & brain. As an adult, an adult body & brain. The spirit of the child resides in the adult though so I am confident with the spirit mixed with the know-how you can succeed :)
I skate on rollerblades but I learn so much from Dirty Deb as her teaching method is clear and simple. Wish she was an inlineskate instructor. She's the best.
This video was a god send. I ordered my skates today and I cant wait to start practicing :)
I used to skate in my 20ies...Now I'm 44 and start all over again with my 7 year old daughter (she insisted I HAVE to skate with her :)
I thank God for creating you and you for creating your videos!! They are a rescue!
Greeting from Greece ❤
P.S. We're skating only outdoors...there is not even the idea of a skating hall here.
I bought some stakes today, tomorrow I'm going to try it out for the first time I'm so exited
I don’t have roller skates but I want roller skate again because when I was younger It was so fun.
Love this!! I went skating outdoors yesterday and was struggling so hard. Time to practice these moves today! :)
this is really nice that your sharing this with me im 48, years young and waiting for my skates to arrive now... thank you for your help..💕
Love this video, thankyou so much Dirty Deb 💜💜💜 you are amazing ... Di, Newcastle NSW Austrslia
I have at least two months without hitting the rink (much like everybody else) due to this odious pandemic that is driving us all crazy. I was starting to at least move and cruise in an acceptable manner; I was very happy with my progress. Now watching you skating outdoors (in the super easy way you make it look ----while it's not---- ) makes me feel awful. I miss this. I really want to get good at that, and I just feel this lockdown has taken a huge toll on my past skating wannabe life 😥😥
The more you skate outside, the better you will be inside.
i love your videos. so much encouragement and info. i feel i like you really care about us. you want us to be safe and look good. we represent!
Anita ... I do care. I want skaters to enjoy this as much as I do and I want skaters to be successful in their journey. I know how skating changes lives for the better :)
Thanks for the in-line tip! I was about to switch to inclines just for the crack issue. I will try your trick first. Keep them coming you are super helpful 💗
Glad it was helpful!
Debbie, you are the best Skating coach and trainer in the world. Very thorough and practical, no-nonsense approach.
I love this woman so much omg
You're amazing!
Because of your instructions, I was able to skate again after I thought I'd never be able too!
Slowly but surely I'm regaining it!
Thank you😍
Great to hear!
I’ve been using my older sisters massive roller skates and I’ve managed to do so much such as lift my right foot upwards and roll forward aimlessly, and I wish I can do this outside but I’m wearing Chicago skates and they are very bad for outdoors and extreme like skating so oh well. Turns out learning things inside is a lot more better then outside.
Absolutely true!! Good pointers!!
Im glad you made these videos.
Greeting from the enchanted Island of Puerto Rico. Happy new year 2022.
Happy new year!
Literally ran here before I go outside and try out my new skates! 😂😍
She’s so good it’s insane!
Fantastic video! Thankyou so much from the UK!! I'm new to skating but your video has been really helpful, thanks again! I've subscribed!
This is exactly what I was looking for. Also I love being taught by someone who is really good at teaching. Thank you so much!
You're very welcome!
I love how you break everything down even to the most minor details. Extremely helpful. Thank you
Hands down, the best skate teacher. I learn so much from you. I share your videos a lot!
Appreciate that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I used to go to the Fountain Valley rink as a child! I’m just starting back up after 20 years. Thank you for the great video!
That is awesome!
Bravo! So passionate to helping people skate safely. ..."Your inexplicately fixated on a pebble and making life choices." Thank you so much for putting the fun in fun. Enjoying your content.
I got my skates 2 months ago and have only worn them in the house because I’m scared of falling in the parking lot outside 😂 This video has given me the confidence I needed ~ tomorrow is the day! Hopefully I don’t bust my butt 🍑❣️😂 Thank you!!
I can’t wait to get my skates but in the mean time I’m watching your awesome videos to get me ready for my first time in a super loooong time skate day😊. Ty! 👍🏽👍🏽
Glad I'm not the only one carrying a broom with me when I go skating outside 🤣
Finally got my outdoor wheels (sure grip motion?) Thanks to your vid. Now u have to adjust because I'm going so fast without trying because the wheels aren't getting stopped on every nook and cranny
I shared this video to a Facebook group called Pic that sk8 where a lot of us ice skaters share the trials and tribulations of transitioning to wheels while our rinks are closed. Thank you for the very useful content you put out.
Thanks for sharing!! I will do a whole video on transitioning. I was a figure skater on quads.
Soooo helpful! I love this. Thank you so much!
This is honestly so helpful!! I just started skating and I can only do it outside rn bc all the rinks are closed, and that in-line tip makes sooo much sense, I can’t wait to try it out. Thank you!!
I love your videos but I’m getting so overwhelmed with everything you need to learn to skate outside lol. Ugh I just want to skate outside by my house since the park is super far from me. But you’ve helped me so much with even starting to skate and how that’s why I will continue to watch your videos you really explain in detail what needs to be done
I’m 35 and just started back skating last year. I started skating outside this March due to rink closures and you just Confirmed that I’m skating properly outside! I use the staggered stance/ toe up to get over debris and the neighborhood kids are in Awe that I don’t kill myself Lol. Thank You!
Oh this is awesome. You are going to be sooooo good when the rink opens back up. Outdoor skating develops soooo many more skating skills.
Dirty School of Skate I’m in Indiana and the rinks have been open about a month, I got to go on Saturday and You Are Right! I have improved Immensely! Now I’m moving on to more of your vids and making sure I practice Everyday! Thank you so much for teaching the mechanics, just doing something and actually knowing what you’re doing is a world of difference!
You are such a great teacher! I've been skating a little for a few years, but I'm so challenged. Nothing comes natural. Haha. People are always like "Just throw yourself into it!", but that never works for me. So hearing you, a VERY experienced skater, say that it's okay to practise off-skate or on carpet is such a relief. And the way you really break all the movements down. Wow! I feel like going outside right now!
YES! I am going to address that very concept of "just throw yourself into it!" tonight when I go live on TH-cam. I hate that idea for so many reasons!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love the way you make skating so effortless. It is like your skates are motorized. Love your videos, you have been so helpful to this newbe to skating.
You are the freaking best ! I’m almost 50 and have not skated since I was about 15! I miss it so much and it used to be so easy. With you I know it will be a breeze so soon!!
Oh I am so excited for you!!
I just got back from my first time roller skating. I’m bruised, tired, a little scraped, and definitely going back out again tomorrow
What a great video. Thanks Queen
You are so welcome!
Thank you for all the tips, so helpful so awesome....
