- We challenged a group of roller skaters to swap wheels for blades and try figure skating for the first time alongside some pros. Will our roller skaters be able to keep up on the ice or will the differences be too much to overcome?

"no matter what, between ice skating or roller skating.... rentals suck."
NO TRUER WORDS HAVE BEEN SAID
Yessss
Ikr, they are the worst 💀
I haven't skated in rentals until I got my skates- can't even imagine the nightmare
Ikr, they never fit properly for me 😭
They are the worst lol.
The fact they were able to do those elements in freakin rental skates is the most impressive part.
Rentals suck.. best thing I did want buy my own skates..
Agree 😂 rentals suck
You oughta see how bad the rental skates at my local rink are - the ones in this video look 10 times better to me!
@@conorlamere399 for real my rentals are literally plastic hockey skates
😭 The ones at my rink are so bad, we call them rental tupperwares
I'd love to see competitive roller skaters who do the same jumps, spins and routines as ice skaters try transferring their skills to ice skating
That is a thing i used to do it, in roller skating figure skating
THIS
It's in a lot of Countries a thing, I do Artistic Rollerskating since 13 years:)
Im a roller skater and I tried doing that and its difficult, well maybe bc the skates were of plastic HAHDH
@@saskia6796 samee, since 6
Justine- "You make me feel like a really good teacher" De'Lorean- "You are!" Justine- "I know" LOL.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Yes indeed ☝️ I caught that!!! 😂😂😂😂
So modest too
Holy shizel Andre was sooooo good. Twizles are really hard and he made them look so easy
ikr!!!!
Honestly I was really impressed!
Can't wait for the reverse.
I was just about to say I hope they do the reverse so they can both appreciate each other’s sports more.
Me neither
I know it's love this series
Most ice skaters started on roller skates so it probably won’t be much of a learning curve
@@Novella22222 most??? Really?? I’ve been figure skating for 20 years and I’ve known one person to also roller blade and they picked it up at 20 (they don’t do many tricks though)
As a roller skater I CANT wait to see the ice skaters on wheels but this was such a fun exchange!
I am a figure skater and for me it does not make roller skating any easier
@-Layla edits- same here too. That's why I also first thought after watching this was when do the figure skater try roller skating
@@jamiewidener8345 they have one
Yea i can’t do roller skating with the 4 wheels I do roller blades yk the line 😮💨
Wheel Skating helps Cold Skating
but NOT Vice Versa…
Example:
Skateboarding helps Snowboarding NOT vice versa
RollerBlading helps Ice skating ⛸️ not as much vice versa
Andre’s twizzles tho!!! 😮 Twizzles are not a beginner move, and he did them with confidence. I wonder if quad roller skaters do twizzles? Seems impossible! Overall I think this was a great concept. Roller skating (for me) is SO much more difficult than ice because the wheels feel clunky and awkward. I also love my toe picks, and the freedom that blades provide. I would really like to see the reverse of this video, where figure skaters try quad roller skates ❤
There is artistic roller skating who is the same as ice figure skating but on quad skates, and yes they do twizzles too.
it's a common sport if not even more popular than ice figure skating in certain European countries and Latin America, as far it's hot and/or the maintenance of a ice rink is too expensive.
@@riccardogusso Interesting! That would make sense. Twizzles on roller skates sounds insane to me, but roller skaters are talented like that.
@@kumikosachs4619 i do rhink the base of twizzles on quads Is kinda the Same on ice, the artistic quad frame Is build in a way Who allow you to get good and Deep edges, heavier and more complex than the ones of ricreative/more common quad skates.
Over that yes techncially Quad Artistic is harder than ICE figure for a lot of things...
Oh let's don't forget the new joiner
Inline figure skating, Who use Wheels but a technique Who Is super close if not quite the Same of ice!
Go follow his Instagram, he's seriously an amazing skater
Every artistic routine incorporates twizzlers. Roller/ artistic skating is very popular in Italy. Do a a YT search for Lucaroni and Tarlazzi. They're pair skaters. You won't believe what they can do. Rebecca Tarlazzi and Luca Lucaroni also skate singles.
I would love to see what they could do with a solid 90 days of training. This was awesome, and I’m also looking forward to seeing the reverse
probably a lot! there's a decent amount of cross over whenn ice and roller skating. It's common for figure skaters to have inline skates to practice when they cant get to a rink. (I cannot for the life of me do anything on quads though)
Yeah, I want to take the ice skaters and put roller skates on them now. 😅
@@annalisasimmer7559 they did… and it was very… entertaining
the
"you are a really good teacher"
"i know!"
cracked me hard
they were doing TWIZZLES on...their first day? INSANE they did amazing
omg that one guy nailed that twirl, looked so good
guy had a nice arm position and everyhing. freaking level feature stuff
EXACTLY
I think the one thing they didn't take advantage of with the explanations is that roller skates and ice skates both use edges and free legs to conceptualise weight transfer! Props to all of the participants for having a go and killing it!!
As an artistic rollerskater I hope the day comes where we see figure skaters and artistic rollerskaters swap places, since it is quite liturally almost the exact same sport but on different grounds and skates :)
I envy you. I'm not have easy time switching to quads. It's so different. I find artistic skaters awesome and more creative.
They usually do both versions in these videos. I just checked and they have it posters
@@biff5856 i think the key to quads is that it's all about your core and your knees
I competed in the Artistic Roller Skating Association & had only 2 years of coaching, 8 skating competitions, won all 1st place except placing 3rd in only one. Skated in Pairs as well. My coach said he had never had a skater out perform him in such a short period of time. Sadly, I couldn't continue with a new coach. I was working on quads in that short time as well. That was many many years ago. The Artistic Roller Association did everything to get Artistic Roller Skating into the the Olympics many times but were sadly turned away & I do not ever see it becoming a sport they will ever consider. I did have plans to turn to Ice. Unfortunately, life had to take me in a different direction. Had I had the chance, I know I would've made Gold; I was 100 % all in & determined, In skating, there is never such a phrase as "I can't!' You fall, get up & do it again & again & keep hitting EVERY move!~ Roller skating is much, more difficult artistically; you're dealing with more weight of the skates with a toe pick & 8 wheels/ different wheels for wood or plastic floors. I WISH ALL THOSE WHO ARE STILL ARTISTICALLY ROLLER SKATING THE BEST OF LUCK !!
THATS MY DREAM HOBBY 😭😭😭😭😭
This is what I wanna see. I’m better at rollerblading but I do enjoy zooming around the ice when I have the time. I’ve skated on quads but I prefer inlines. I wish you picked a rollerblader to see the difference in blades.
As someone who skates on ice and with quads, but used more inlines as a kid, I feel like quads and ice skates are the most similar to each other (unless you get the off-ice inlines). Like, I can do a lot of stuff in quads and on ice, but if I put inlines on I just get completely confused
@@Cloudy4Days Also the figure skating world on wheels is all quads.
@@Cloudy4Days I am fairly competent on the inlines. I can do backwards crossovers like an ice skater in a parking lot. On quads I feel uneasy, but I can at least go around a rink. However, on ice skates I can barely move forward, they feel so foreign despite 30 years of inline skating. Granted every time I've tried has been in rental skates, so that's probably not helping.
@@pwilll Yes....?
@@richskater Definitely not helping you those rentals maybe, check how sharp they are next time, moving forwards is almost the same exact movement as in-lines or quads but if there is no edge on your ive skates it'll be like trying to skate with plates strapped to your feet. Rentals are sharpened like, never. I've once elected to use my skates that was literally having a blade fall off rather than rentals because the wiggly blade was easier to skate with
we do have toestops! but jam skaters remove them to make dancing easier, artistic quad skating does exist. perhaps the title should say jam roller skaters instead
i agree title needs amending for accuracy 😊
I agree
I agree! They should have done this challenge with artistic quad skaters. That would have been most comparable 👍🏾
I do both figure skating (adult silver) and roller so this was for sure a treat to watch! I can understand how roller skaters aren’t used to having upright posture or the use of arms not looking down deeper knee bend etc.. I myself had a hard time with this transition..😅
Right off the bat the one guy who got hurt I instantly thought the top hooks of his skates were too loose for ice 😳 I understand in jam skating it’s normal to have them loose at the top or not even tied at all but with ice I fell as though you need that firm support.
The other guy who did the twizzles in his routine- that was REALLY impressive!!
The girl had really nice flow and artistry and a great waltz jump.
I believe with a better boot and blade combo things would have been easier for all three of them 😅
Other than that for not having any artistic experience and the two guys in rentals this was impressive for day one!
Glad to see that someone else had noticed that the top couple of inches of his boots were extremely loose which was making it harder for him to execute the skills and the strings got looser with each skill they learned. Thankfully it wasn't a serious injury and healed quickly.
These guys are incredible!! I started competition figure skating as an adult, at 22, with no experience and it has taken me YEARS to learn a one-foot spin and these guys did it in RENTALS!? Insane
De’Lorean’s final program was so good! The waltz was lovely and the connecting steps so graceful! And Andre doing freaking twizzles his first time on the ice is both impressive and infuriating cause I’ve been working on them for months and can only get two twizzles at best 😭😭😭
I actually watched this after the roller skating vid and I've gotta say, I'm so so proud of all of them. As students, they were all determined to try and do each move well. They were also all awesome instructors. Loved these 2 vids and hope they all keep practicing.
Would love to see something with roller derby players, maybe derby players trying hockey and vice versa?
NEZUKO! This series between roller skaters and ice skaters is so awesome!
I was looking for this comment! Gotta love demon slayer and skating
De's face after seeing Justine demonstrate the 2 foot spin was exactly my face.
“OMG! You make me feel like a really good teacher”
“You are!!”
“I know!”
You guys did great. As a roller skater myself, we know that it will be more challenging. I wish they also try roller skating challenge
They did
I loved how supportive everyone is of eachother 🥰 makes me want to get back into sports. ❤
Wish they had a world champion figure roller skater try these. There are many different types of roller skaters and different levels, even professional level. Very fun to watch and such great personalities.
As someone who grew up rollerblading, when I ice skated for the first time, the toe picks were the bane of my existence 😭
Andre is a natural talent! Awesome effort and fun to watch!
Ice skating is MUCH harder than roller skating because you’re trying to balance on a thin metal blade and not four wheels. I think these guys did amazing!!
Umm no one mentioned De'Lorean's jacket is low key fire 🔥
I have come across 2 others along with yours so far
i thought it was gonna be artistic/competitive roller skating but instead it is jam roller skating.. hopefully there will be a video with competitives since it has basically all the same figures and jumps and such and it would be really great to see how much the difference in medium influence the preparation and attitude of athletes
No way, I was just wishing you had a roller skater/figure skater video and here it is 😍
I watched both videos and I gotta say each group was good teachers and great students. Humble and skilled. It seems like there's a few common skills but the real thing that translates is confidence and general athleticism as well as openness and willingness to learn something new. They all did a great job.
De'Lorean's smile was just so radiating and contagious :)
The tall guy Lionel was so natural on skates I have hard time to believe he's not done this before.
omg I want to instantly be friends with dee because of her jeans jacket
Summer-roller skates; winter-ice skating. These matchups are terrific to watch and really show the differences in each sport wonderfully.
This episode made me smile so many times with excitement for the skaters I already lost count and I'm only halfway through watching it so far! Great coaches and athletes, wonderful series and congratulations to all involved in making this happen!
i am just amazed that they did so well in rental skates. Rental skates suck but I give the credit.
Why? What’s the difference
That they could do any of that is rental skates is pretty impressive. Their feet probably hurt a lot afterwards, though.
Ahhh! Good to run across this video with some local BK/NY skaters! They all did so well! I’ve watched Andre learning new moves and progressing on the roller rink, he’s a very talented skater!
Tara Lapinski started as a roller skater so not that shocked that they took to it well
Omg they did so frikkin good!!!! Especially Andre 😱😱🙌🏼🙌🏼 Usually takes so long to get to that point, so the fact that they could all do this after a few tries is amazing
De’lorean’s side eye and Nezuko jacket are EVERYTHING to me 😂
I was looking for this comment! :D
Great video! Just to mention that figure skating on roller skate also exists it's called artistic roller skating
Oh wow DeLorean really nailed it she's good fantastic awesome
Aw wishing Lionel a speedy recovery. You all did great!
Duude, I had so much fun watching this and cheering you all on!! It would be nice to see it the other way around where the ice skaters put on a pair of rollerskates!! 💪😎
This is very off topic but i am in love with De’Loreans Nezuko jackets its so cool
Love how they switched the roles and I really like these videos, they make me wanna try figure skating too. Also just an idea, could you do roller blading professionals with figure skating or roller skaters?
Both videos were great! And, everyone did a great job picking up each other’s sport.
Omg the balance alone is what always gets me. I always thought that if you can do one you can do the other. But the balance is really totally different. I watched the second half as well and you all did a great job. Question, are inline skates the best of both world? Would love to see this competition with you all and inline skaters.
7:58 THE NEZUKO JACKET!! I just noticed the pins she has too omg
So surprised that it came so naturally to all of them! Also hope the rolled ankle feels better!!
Dude, I have so much respect and admiration for roller skaters and ice skaters. I used to roller skate and ice skate, it was easy just skating around but doing all these cool tricks and spins? I could never.
Everyone did so amazing! I thought it was going to be much harder for the roller skaters to get on the ice...and they jumped! I love how they did the ice skaters on roller skates video. I hope there are follow ups
it looked like all the figure skaters got cute custom matching roller skates last video, these guys deserve their own custom ice skates too!
Incredible video! The twizzle looks so much like snapping in rollerskating, so its nice to see that came natural to Andre
Loooolll the teacher is amazing and funny saying “ik” when she said you make me feel like a really good teacher
Aw Lionel did such a great job, I’m sorry he got injured
Definitely jam skaters, but it was a neat video. I've been doing artistic roller for quite a few years and the similarities between quads and ice is ridiculous. Most would say ice is comparable to inlines, but that's not the case. Your edges, jumps, how you turn, and how you stop are almost identical. Quads are definitely heavier! Great vid. Looking forward to the reverse.
Wow!! I think they all did amazing. Well done!
While the idea behind the video is really fun, I am not surprise at all that Lionel got hurt. These moves are not for beginner ice skaters, much more preparation and lessons normally go before these. Ice skating should always be taken in little by little and with the proper precaution. The ice can be dangerous.
Still, I think the roller skaters did pretty great! :)
I would really like to see ballerina’s trying figure skating! :)
Nice. Do more videos with every sport that exists. It's nice to see the encouragement and the learning.
This series deserves more attention. Theyre interesting!
Great content here ! It’s fun stepping out your comfort zone. Need like an artistic skater and a jam skater. That’ll be interesting !!!
I love the girl jacket. And they're all talented. However, the bald guy needs to try professional ice skating. He's a natural.
Andre seemed like he was really into it!
The way Lionel was standing at 13:08 told me he was NOT steady in those skates.. looks like there was absolutely zero ankle support so it's no wonder he rolled it
How has noone not turned this into a Happy Gilmore style movie yet?
So fun to watch you guys! Roller skaters unite!
Cool video! I love to watch all kind of ice skating videos (not just figure skating as I play hockey myself)! 😃 I hope that we will also see the other video in reversed roles. 😁
There is a hockey one on there I saw it last night! I didn’t have time to watch it but it’s a hockey player and a figure skater just like they did with this video! 💪😎
@@mamabearthrives7815 Ya, I know. I have already seen this some weeks ago. It was quite funny to watch. 😃
i love this series so much
This is fascinating to watch because I did this as I taught myself how to do the various skills I saw figure skaters doing whenever we watched the different competitions and shows that aired on network TV before cable and online service existed. I could roller skate in our basement and I could ice skate on the lake in our neighborhood for ,3-4 months depending on how cold it got and how thick the ice got. It had to be around 20 inches before they would let us skate or play hockey and it was checked daily. We rarely got to go to the one ice skating rink and that was usually with a church group or girl scouts.
They did so good. My fear of falling has stopped me in the past and I definitely want to get back out there with a teacher
smart of them to put them in hockey boot figure skates. I always use hockey boot figure skates cause they're so much more comfortable but I can imagine for roller skaters it's so much better
Really enjoyed that. Fab! 🤩
This was so much fun to watch and makes me want to get back on the ice and wheels!
I would like to see figure skating adopting some of the "street" vibe roller skaters/inline skaters have. Sometimes, figure skating is all ballet, seriousness and sometimes also arrogance. Roller skaters just enoy, there seems to be more fun.
"Patin libre" are a skating ensemble who incorporate this in their shows. Worth a look.
There are a lot of skaters that do more "street" like choreos these days.
Nathan Chen, Olympic Free Skate. You’re welcome
Tbf, most of the figure skating you see on television is competitive, so of course it’s more serious. The exhibition galas afterwards and off season ice shows are usually way more fun!
Look up "freestyle ice skating" on TH-cam! It's super cool. If figure skating is ballet, freestyle is breakdance/street
These guys are making me itch to get back on skates of any kind!
It would be cool to see the artistic roller skater like the ones who do the doubles and triples and the camel spins the same way we do ours. But these roller skates did great
All these people are awesome. I love this series
Andre’s twizzles into the waltz jump! 🔥🔥🔥
Very cool that both athletes challenged each in their sport.
Glad this segment is back!
this but with artistic roller skaters would be so cool,, because the jumps and spins are pretty much the same but... different ?? i don't really know how to explain 😅
Nobody gonna talk about the nezuko jacket?
Andrew ATE that routine UPPPPP
This was such a great idea! I love both
I would love to see this but with Wizard skating, switching the two. Wizard skaters try to keep up with Figure Skaters, then Figure Skaters try to keep up with Wizard Skaters.
i am a figure skater. i find roller skating to be sooo scary! being on a hard surface like cement seems terrifying, i can do triple jumps on ice, but i'm not brave enough to do a spin in roller skates😆 i have a lot of respect for roller skaters. definitely harder falls when you can't slide
they should’ve brought in artistic roller skaters be they do things similar to what we do on the ice
i think it’s more fun for them to go out of their comport zones and try different moves. i never even knew jam skaters existed before and now i’m looking up videos!
I would've love to see quad AND inline skaters (specially slalom / freestyle Urban skaters) trying ice figure skating. Then inline and ice trying quads, and quads and ice trying inlines.
Why are they so smooth with it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
D was awesome. Everyone did great the students and teachers.
I'm sorry if I'm biased, but I'm surprised how cool and relaxed the figure skaters were.
Toe picks is blessing and a curse😂😭
Lets go.
Awesome Video!
