In this tutorial learn how to do the "grapevine" This is a very technical skating move and takes a lot of leg control. Hope this helps and remember practice, practice, practice!
The way you teach is so unconventional to standard roller skate teaching methods, your way of teaching really addresses the bare basics of the movement and ensures a more fluid movement with better grasp of momentum. Appreciate your tutorials!
I've been practicing the grapevine for months now. Watched a dozen tutorials and yours is the one that help me get it! Now I will try to make it look smooth. Thank you so much and hope you make more content and tutorials!
Great tutorial been trying to understand the turnaround with your knees inward and you made it so clear. Subbed and liked looking forward to watching more of your tutorials and other videos! Skate on!
I'm a beginner and I got the "feel" of this before the video was over. Very easy to understand and follow. I have a few months of working on this to look 1/2 as smooth as DW but this is a great start
The grapevine has been my nemesis for like forever… saying about using those inner thigh muscles, I’ve actually levelled up my progress to smooth. Thanks from the UK 👍
Thank you so much for the moves to get use to doing to prepare for practicing the "grapevine". I used to practice this move several years ago but forgot recently. So I notice that as I flow/roll backward, I squeeze my knees together along with the thigh muscle squeezes to help me stop. I completely forgot these two flow movements. Thank you!

Thank you for sharing. I'm new and I'm learning alone. The backward part is the harder. When I close my legs I'm going backward instead of forward. I don't get it.
great video, i am always seeing toe stops as annoying. i changed to round caps but still get in the way, getting jam plugs next. is there a list of moves that can be done with them ?
I'm having a lot of trouble standing on my toes in that "A" stance. Is there a good way to practice this? I feel like I'm just going to fall forward. I can stand on my toes in a staggered stance pretty ok but that's about it.

Good vídeo bro ✌🏻
im 35 and we all ways called it the great vine
haveyou launched your kickstarter yet? What kind of skates would you recommend to learn your style of Jam skating for a beginner?
is this better with loose or tight trucks?
Thank you for sharing. I'm new and I'm learning alone. The backward part is the harder. When I close my legs I'm going backward instead of forward. I don't get it.
great video,
i am always seeing toe stops as annoying. i changed to round caps but still get in the way, getting jam plugs next.
is there a list of moves that can be done with them ?

HI There, Love the video. Some people grapevine on their heels too. Can you do a version with that move included?
Sure, there are a lot of ways to grapevine.
Maybe I’ll do a variation video
What size wheels and Abec bearings do you recommend?
Also, I am a HUGE fan of nomenclature…is Diamond Walker your real name? That would be so awesome. 😎
What's your IG? Would love to tag you in my drills
@thediamondwalker
Can you do the same things that you do with skates with heels, using skates without heels? Xoxo from Argentina ❣️
Yes of course! Heel or no heel you can do the and movements
How do you teach on line ? Or where are you in FL ?
9:17
Can someone please explain what manuals are?? Does it have to do with movement on your toe wheels??
I’m pretty sure it’s what you call balancing on either one toe and one heel or both toes. Either way, you’re only one one pair of wheels per foot
Little long winded but well worth the watch. Thank you so much.
