I have seen people do this turn lots recently and was SO close to just trying to kick my air leg back and forth to see if it turns me LOL thanks for the video it probably saved my bones:) time to practice!
OMG, OMG, OMG ( yup I'm yelling ) I have been waiting my whole life for this tutorial! I'm in my 40's so this was a long time coming. I just picked up my skates again ~3 yrs ago after a ridiculous hiatus of IDK maybe 20 -30yrs or so. Anyway, I consider myself these days an intermediate skater and have wanted to learn how to turn on one foot for lol 3 yrs. Seriously, I stopped paying a bill so I could see this. I CAN NOT WAIT, (yelling again) to try this. Thank you. Thank you and Oh yeah Thank you! Now back to begrudgingly paying this bill.
OK this was the best tutorial for 3 turns I've ever seen. I'm 39 and learned to skate as an adult and never did drills. 3 turns always gave me issues because nobody ever really explained it to me in detail. I love you and your Snack Area 💜
Hey Dirty Deborah, today I've managed to do my first 3 turn thanks to you ! It looks terrible for the moment but hey, I DID IT !! Can't wait to be more fluid, thanks a LOT for your precious advices !!
Hi. I’m a French skater. Your video is exactly what I needed to improve and understand how to play with edges, pressure, arms and weight to make it more fluent and go further with my skates. Thank you !
Just decided to switch from in-lines to quads (partially due to your videos!)! I don’t wanna dis blades...BUT roller skates are SO much more fun! Been on them for a week and cannot wait to get to the point where I can groove around rinks! Keep ‘em coming Debbie (pretty please)!! Maybe one day I’ll get to come visit FVSC!!! I’ve been devouring your tutorials and sharing with my friends (secretly trying to get them hooked and start a little crew here in SLC)!
This is so fluid.. we moved and I don't have easy access to skate-able terrain anymore.. it's a struggle. I went from skating everyday to once every other month.
After getting inspired by watching all your videos, I’ve started my skating journey so thank you! I had a great chat with someone at my local skate shop about your amazing videos and she mentioned she met you during your Australian tour a couple of years ago. Please come back, Deb!
Im nowhere near being able to do a 3-turn BUT i am dipping my toes into as much as I can. Today i practiced doing bubbles fwd and bckwd and moving one foot ahead while doing it. I cant believe i actually am,improving faster than i thought! I will definitely be practicing skating on one foot and so i will revisit this video in a few weeks or months :)
Great explanation of the 3 turn. I've always found that it's easier turning one side than the other. So practice going all directions. Both to the left and to the right, inside and outside. Even though one side is not as comfortable as the other. Do that uncomfortable side more. It will pay off. As Debbie says, practice, practice, practice.
THIS is what we on the East Coast call Snapping. It is a MAJOR feat to get the balance on one foot stable enough to do this fluidly. I have found that before attempting this you HAVE TO HAVE ultimate ability to balance on one foot going forward & backwards. This is a beautiful and cool move but is also one of the most dangerous and injury related techniques in skating (Ask Me How I Know) Thank you for all you do!! We are watching you at my rink and you are often the topic of conversation!!
this channel has been my #1 go-to since I wanted to re-learn how to skate. I'm really happy to see this channel grow and become even better! I'll be going to college soon and I'm planning to show off my skating skills on campus thanks to you haha
I have just turned 62 and Just Bought some Skates on impulse, I just hope I can still at least skate a bit lol. Haven't been on Skates for 30 something Years, so this could get interesting.........or painful. Love your Videos, I can't stop watching them before I venture out into the real World. I have good Balance. but not sure about my knees, but I am determined to give it a go. Thanks again, All the Best
Hi Dirty Debs, Thank you so much for all your videos! I am a beginner skater and your videos have helped me so much!!! I'm hoping one day I can come and visit Fountain Valley Skating Centre. From Liverpool, UK.
Yay!! Love this breakdown. Your 3-turns are so gorgeous and smooth AND stylish. I’ve been working on my LOF 3-turns for months and I am still shaky after the turn; maybe it’s time to add a little speed before making that pivot, and I will definitely take the advice on prepping the move by holding that outer edge firmly first. I also need to keep the free leg behind me; I’ve been using it to give me momentum when making the pivot and I’m guessing it’s a bad habit. I really want to perfect this turn so I can improve on one-leg spins! Thank you so much for the advice and motivation through these fantastic videos! 🙏🏽
Just rewatching this excellent tip, before heading over to the rink this afternoon, for the first time, since the pandemic!!! Got my skates setup with my SureGrip Fames!!! I was debating on taking my phenolic or ice wheels, this time... But, I will try that next time I go out!
Omg, just sat in the bath and decided to watch some 3 turn videos and up popped a notification of a new video from you. Amazing keep up the excellent instruction videos. If you get chance in the future, some variations would be great.
I am from Kuwait and I started skiing at the beginning of 2019 and searched for many videos to know the things I am looking for in skiing, and seriously I did not find any videos that explain as well as your explanation. you are amazing. Keep going. Hope you reach one thousand subscribers and more. Thank you
I love your videos so much!! I have only been skating for 60 days and I already have ppl at the rink asking me to tech them!! I would love to take personal lessons for you. I am willing to travel.❤❤❤
I just started skating again after many years and I’ve been binge watching your videos every single day! You are AWESOME! I wish I lived in Cali so I can have you teach me.
My husband just bought me Moxi lollys today in taffy color!!! I’m so excited to relearn how to skate! I used to go as a preteen/teen! I got some indoor wheels for them to go to the rink and a rainbow skate leash! These are my first pair of skates and I’m so excited!!!!
ooooh la la la ... Gonna try this tomorrow at our adult skate... ya never know ... I might impress them.... What am I saying? If I can do this, I'll impress myself. Thanks Debbie !!!!
Idk if anyone sees it but my tip for learning these is to put just one skate. Ik it sounds (and looks) dumb but it really gave me more confidence with the pivot bc if smth went wrong I could land on the foot with a shoe. Then after you get better just switch to both skates.
Hey ! I'm a French girl, and I learn how to practice roller skate since 4 days haha. I really enjoy your video and now I learn so much faster. Thank u so much, I'm going to look ALL your video to be as good as you.
I just manage to master them but when the court is too busy where I skate outside. I practise my 3turns in line not circle on fairly quiet street. I learn to do them on outside edges too. They are more easy, but I just literary notice that the turn is backwards unlike the inside edges. I hope one day I manage to practise and master them in circle too. Thanks for your videos. ❤️
ty Deborah... just a couple of months after I commented suggesting a 3 turn lesson, BOOM, there it is! I'm nearing the end of recovery after ACL surgery and I can't skate for a little while longer, but your vids have really helped to keep me motivated... They've tortured me so hard at PT that I'm going to be 110% very soon, and I can't wait to practice what you teach :-).
Coming from somebody who has been skating for 26 years and 22 years working in rinks, this is hands down the best channel to happen to roller skating EVER! Thank you Debbie! I wanna drive 20 hours to come learn to teach from you (no joke), maybe I'll shoot you a message when I get to it.
@@Dirtydeborahharry I'm skating the Seattle area, mostly at Lynnwood Bowl and Skate (formerly Roll-A-Way) and Southgate Roller Rink. I just broke through a plateau in my skating and am working on spins and jumps. I hurt!
YES! I am so glad I finally found this video. Thank you SO MUCH for posting this! I have been looking forwards to improving my 3-turns. It’s definitely a different feel on wheels than on the ice, and having the control on the exit edge and that “check” position to stop the rotation. Sometimes I get tippy by leaning forward too much and going onto the toe-stop at the top of the turn. Please keep these 3-turn videos coming! Can you please post forward inside 3-turns next, and then the really tricky backwards outside 3-turns and the backwards inside 3-turns? This will be a great tutorial on figures!
Dirty Debbie great job on the video and explaining the turn that leads to many many more moves! Been there a few times haven't met you yet I'm sure I will eventually, we'll grab some nachos at the snack bar haha great video love it
Yea!! I’ve been waiting and waiting for this tutorial, and you knocked it out of the park. Now we’ll see how long it takes for me to dare to try this.😀
Deborah, if anyone is commenting about you using any word less than the word "gorgeous", I will find it highly upsetting. With that said, you are the best skating instructor I have ever encountered. I thought I had that 3-turn done and over, but in this one video you covered mechanics I had never considered. Thanks for what you do and keep it up. Kudos also for Xavier for the fine camera work. You two make a great team. ❤️
Dirty Debs you are too cute! Thanks for all of the tutorials!!!!! I'm starting to skate at 35 and I don't know what I would do without your awesome videos!
Love it! This is actually what I’ve been working on. Are your marks on the floor for three turns? Can your next video be on back to front and transitioning the weight between front and back to make it seamless all the way around? And as I said before... you’re still the queen of skating!
🥲 This is exactly what I need and I think affects why I can't do camel spin yet. I also thought you lift your heel up consciously but a hop makes a lot more sense, thank you so much!!! 😊🙏
You’ve helped me so much learning how to skate, thank u so much. I would be at the skating rink and be watching ur video then go practice. I’m practicing how to skate backwards now ❤️ I love u Debra. Let me know when I can come by the fountain valley skating rink to meet u in person. And if u have a social media please drop it here.
Perfect timing! I've been wanting to try this, and have been working on it while on the carpeting at my rink, but I think that doing it on the carpet - of course - it just doesn't have the same feel to it as it does on the floor. I'm not getting it as fast as I should be - or could be - since the carpet is slowing me down a bit...but I'm also terrified to try it on the smoother (slippery) floor. LOL I know I'm just going to have to bite the bullet and do it eventually. Alas, it's only Thursday so I'll have to wait until tomorrow night to attempt it on the floor. We always go a bit early now that one of my girls is working there (as a floor guard, in snack bar, and they're going to train her on admission/ticket booth this week, too!) so sometimes I'm allowed on the floor before the official session starts. Makes it much easier to practice when you're not worried about kids running into you. Sadly, being in Ohio, we've hit our "it's almost winter so it's rainy all the time" season so no more outdoor skating until at least March/April. :(
Thank you Deb💫! I got my first 3 turn done after 3 months. Pls consider helping us with a new great tutorial to travel from backwards to forward on one foot, with a back-outside 3 turn again 💪💪
This video was so great and helped me learn three turns - do you think you'll ever do a follow up about traveling three turns (i.e. going from backward back to forward)? I'd love to see that!
I know you’ve probably already got another video idea in the works, but you do such a great job at explaining things in ways I can actually understand. So if I may be so bold; Would you please consider making a weaving video? I mean weaving minimum skills/roller derby. I am having the worst mental block and as a result am getting very frustrated with this abomination of a skill. Lol. Thank you, I enjoy your videos immensely ❤️❤️
Your videos have been encouraging for me. Yesterday it finally stopped raining and I tried out my new Candi Girl skates. Well things went south quickni tripped over an acorn and speed down hill into my drive way face plant then fall on my cushion. But I laughed it off said get up and moved on thanks to you 😁 now I know acorns are the devil 😅
Thanks, Deb! Been working on those one-legged turns for many, many months . . . still a work in progress. Please, do a tutorial on one of the slickest moves of all-----pivots. Luv Ya!
I TELL EVERY NEW SKATER I MEET TO CHECK YOU OUT!
Thank you so much.
Body deff banging 😂. Been holding that in for months after I seen your first video. Glad you broke the ice.
awwww :) Thank you fine Sir.
I have seen people do this turn lots recently and was SO close to just trying to kick my air leg back and forth to see if it turns me LOL thanks for the video it probably saved my bones:) time to practice!

Yes honey, get it!
Gayla Bee we movin on up!
Lol that's what I said🤣❤️

Dirty Deb when do we get to see the face of Xavier? 😆
Dirty Deb’s outfits are always on point! 💁🏾♀️
Thank you very much!
Best 3-turn breakdown I've seen yet! Hell yes.
I'm watching like " ahh ha..ah haa nice! Wait I can't do this outside on rough ground" lol looks nice in the rink tho
I have an outdoor skating video! Check it out. Everything … in time... can be done on both surfaces.
I learned on pavement. You definitely can but always wear pads. Safety first!
Find a parking lot! That's what I do.
Hey Dirty Deborah, today I've managed to do my first 3 turn thanks to you ! It looks terrible for the moment but hey, I DID IT !! Can't wait to be more fluid, thanks a LOT for your precious advices !!

Welcome back to the club!!! You are going to have sooo much fun.
You’re going to reach 50k and beyond Deborah. Big ups to you, I love your channel.
You make this look so easy! Thanks for a GREAT explanation!
I'm hopefully getting skates for Christmas so I'm binge watching all of your videos 🤪
Love all your content 😊
Hi Dirty Debs, Thank you so much for all your videos! I am a beginner skater and your videos have helped me so much!!! I'm hoping one day I can come and visit Fountain Valley Skating Centre. From Liverpool, UK.
Just a thick bowl of extra spicy pho with Sriracha on the side.
(I was mid my usual comments when you said it and I almost dropped my phone 🤭🤣)

Seriously underrated video. It should have more views, it's the best one out there imo.
Awwww thank you so much. I am hoping all my videos are just slow-burns that over time reach the right audience.
After watching your videos while practising, I always end up getting a bit better - so I'll definitely come back to this one again 😉

Hello from England! Thanks for the lesson. I've been thinking about a one-foot turn for ages - they look great. I'll get practicing :)
I just started skating again after many years and I’ve been binge watching your videos every single day! You are AWESOME! I wish I lived in Cali so I can have you teach me.
I just watched this twice and I understand this better now thanks!!! ❤️
i could have used ur guidance when I was a kid and went roller skating all the time. LOL. Now its just fun watching.

I know I am super SUPER late but I finally got skates and wanna learn you help a lot!!
Love your methodology. Got the scissors/cruisin down and love it. Now need to master a 3-point turn...thx much!
ive been eyeing this move the past couple of weeks im so excited to practice it! thank you for breaking it down !

Walking is dangerous ;) Hope you heal up quick!!!
Im so DEPRESSED rn cus in England it's horrible outside at the minute and I'm not allowed to skate in my house after last time 😳😧
I really know what you mean - damn this rain!
What happened last time, you gotta tell us. Where in 🇬🇧? I’m near London.
Went to the park yesterday. Wet tarmac and twigs are not a good combination 😂
Maybe you could find a covered/underground car park to skate in until the weather is better? Good luck hun xx
Te amo Deborah 😘😘😘
Yo nisiquiera puedo frenar con mis patines 😭
🥲 This is exactly what I need and I think affects why I can't do camel spin yet. I also thought you lift your heel up consciously but a hop makes a lot more sense, thank you so much!!! 😊🙏

Well things went south quickni tripped over an acorn and speed down hill into my drive way face plant then fall on my cushion. But I laughed it off said get up and moved on thanks to you 😁 now I know acorns are the devil 😅
YOU are a badass!
You are so good!! I love watching you!! Come to Australia to teach me 🤗
I have taught in Australia 5 times! I so need to come back!
