I know this is one of your older videos, but it'd be really cool to see something like... Your warming up routine before you skate, or exercises you do through the week that can increase your flexibility on ice :)
Hi Rachel so I am trying to get into competitive skating and I was wonders if you could make a vid or something about tips and how competitions work, how to get a coach, how to build a routine, good stretches, what to focus of in warm up etc and all that it’s fine if not but I would rlly love it
I want to start ice skating next year when I become more flexible and leaner so I’ll be 14. My goal is to get the basics and some in two years and maybe get in the olympics
I mean, could happen, there was this one guy started when he was 15 and got into the Olympics but most skaters who do start when they're very very young.
@@Zozo.srk06 If you're gonna skate for a long time and is willing to throw in some extra money I do highly recommend buying your own skates. Even though rentals are usable, they're uncomfortable and the blades are often either too sharp or blunt. Jackson is a good skate brand but any should be fine and probably just use beginner skates and slowly switch to the better skates because the better skates feel harder and probably need more practice than if you had just started
my rink only does basic 1-6 for under 12 year olds, but they do offer a teen/adult class. you move a lot faster because at this age you naturally have more strength and balance. on my first lesson i started backwards crossovers and scratch spins! so i really do recommend teen/adult classes.
I want to start figure skating so bad but because of the corona I can’t. So is there like any exercises you need to do to figure skate or any home training you can do?
I use jacksons, those are the ones that work for me personally. Most skaters pick a brand that works for them and then pick a boot that is best for the level they are in. Also, I uploaded a updated version of this video! It's more accurate to what I use now :)
here is a updated version of what’s in my skating bag 🤍 : th-cam.com/video/O1y92-PIxJA/w-d-xo.html

@@RachelLiza ahHHH BLESS!
Thanks for the vid that reminded me to put a towel in my skating bag

Rachel Liza all of the coach’s at my rink have suitcase, almost all of the skaters have zuca bags.

I'm 14 now and my mum is going to get me in hopefully very soon. Oh also i am not flexible at all so I'm learning right now but ya😁
@@Zozo.srk06 You don't have to be flexible when you first skate. Probably do later if you want like some of the spins and jumps to succeed but ye.
@@ever-fh4qf ok thank you😁👍

Beth Ramirez it’s never too late to start skating!! ❤️⛸

Hi! I like your blue and pink guards! Where did u buy it? I tried to find on amazon but they have none of that color :(
The brand is called rockerz , maybe you can find a place that sells them if you google the name :)
I know this is kinda late, but I really want to start skating! What kind of skates do you use? Is there a specific brand? Thanks!

Do you order your skates to get them or do you get them in store
what skates do you have
Hey! What are those balls that you put into your skates called? I'm guessing it's some sort of dehumidifying thing but I can't find it anywhere
They are scented balls I bought them at the skating store at my rink
@@RachelLiza Thanks for replying :) I just got my first figure skates on friday so I'm just looking at a lot of stuff haha
Where do you get your skates??
What brand are your skates or could you drop a link? :))
i think they are jackson competitive boots?
Rachel Liza thx
Where can you purchase skates and all the things you showed in the video?
most of the stuff is from amazon or at my local figure skating shop ❤️
@@RachelLiza thank you🥺🥺💕💕
If I have a Zuca bag, I will definitely be confused.
Good
Wow ok I only have 1 pair of gloves in my skating bag but you have 100 ☺️
What are spinners?
they allow you to spin without the ice!
@@RachelLiza oh ok thanks
What didn’t you like about the grey-soled Jackson boots? Just curious :)
They were super stiff :(
First. :)
@Christina Mock I did not ask for you're opinion.
@Christina Mock Still didn't ask.
HAHAH I LOVE YOU 😘🥰
If you are a hater stop hating
Where did u get your guards?

Rachel Liza I thought they were Rockers but I wasn’t sure lol thanks !
