I’m not learning jumps yet. But one time this was about two years ago. I had just gotten my own pair of skates for Christmas and it was my first lesson trying them out and all I was doing was just moving my legs back and forth one by one and I fell back and put my hands behind me to catch myself. But instead I nearly broke my arm. It hurt so bad. I had to wear a sling for about a week. Now I know if I fall backwards don’t put my hands out.
Thankyou, I really needed to hear that. I’m terrified of falling because I don’t want to worsen old injuries. I got crash leggings and honestly they are the best thing I have ever bought. Im definitely holding back, but it doesn’t help that the rink isn’t open yet. At least I’ll get to skate when I go down to my dads soon! I hope everyone is safe :)
Hi, if you don't mind me asking, where did you purchase your 'crash Leggings' from? - I'm not quite sure what they are but as a beguineer anything that will help against falls sounds great😂
Mariana Belloso Dall it’s no problem! I got mine from frozen couture, an Australian brand. But I know that it’s quite expensive so if you’re not looking to invest too much into it then bike crash shorts/ other kinds are a good alternative. Just make sure you’re able to move and they’re not too bulky! Hope this helped
Careful and slow progression, technique, consistency and protection will keep you safe (I wear everything and crash shorts, no helmet though). The fear of falling is real when you see the shiny ice. Falling on your unprotected hip is no fun. Also, you just don't try harder tricks in a crowded rink with lots of kids, you can end hurting someone.
I broke my nose when I was 7 (not related to ice or anything) and now I freak out over everything because the surgery and the recovery period was awful. Last week I stepped on ice for the firs time and couldn't think anything else beside my nose. I wish I could get over this fear
I wear wrists, knees, elbows pads and waiting for my fully padded shorts lol took 2 falls in tailbone and side thigh =‘) Im 28 and just learning FS. Injury mortified me but i love skating!
I am scared of falling coz Iam scared to get hurt coz after I fall I get a huge blue and it hurts for a long time. How do you recover fast after falling?
Oh i fall like you teach bc of ski, also if you are in a low position you can do some judo falls and roll like a ninja lol I broke my radius last year bc i was wearing a big diving watch then 3 weeks later, my collarbone bc i was skating with a cast and couldn't roll with it 😂😂😂
I was learning how to skate with a toe pick on spirals... Then i was skating backward safely, early morning but i had to avoid wild kids and as my speed is as good as juniors... I just had to learn the hard way. Also, i'm old lol Your bones density must be amazing tho; i can compare my measurements to elite asian skaters, body fat include yet they are "heavier", it's bones. And as i know that some practice sessions can be Pogorilaya like - poor her - it'd make sense
i'm not afraid of falling or getting hurt but still sometimes my brain is like NOPE NOT JUMPING
I’m afraid of falling for sure, but my worst fear is jumping and idk why!!🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️😭😭

@@lunarose7490 yes a lot, thank you so much 😁
This is amazing! Thank you! ❤
Artistic roller skater here, Thank you for the tips! I know falling onto concrete isn't the same as ice, but sometimes it feels like it!

i just don't wanna get hurt, and i'm pretty thin so when i fall on big jumps it's like hitting your bone hard on the ice lol
I am slightly heavy (normal weight) but if I fall I’ll have a heavier impact and it hurts bad

Since watching your videos I've been thinking about learning to skate, but I'm so scared of falling on the ice especially because I'm clumsy
I'm starting lessons soon and I'm afraid of falling on my knees again like the very first time I've started but thanks 2 you I'll face my 😨 fear
very helpful. the more often I fall and learn how to fall the best way, the more fearless I become.

Hi NOOR, i am 28 as well! started skating last week and I love it but i am terrified too
@@hastivahidi3895 go for it! I started waltz jump but my brain needs motivation to go for it and just jump without thinking xD
