Her voice sounds like a British lady Gaga. Beautiful alto voice
Ur so right
Yeah
i think she’s from portugal..? but youre so right
Omg it does!
She sounds like she could teach me a lesson!
this video called me a beginner in caps
Know Thyself beginner
I never did learn how to inline skate properly and she is spot on with these common errors - I am guilty of all five! I just bought a pair and am watching tutorials while I wait for them to arrive so I can do it properly this time around :) Thanks for this!
How is it going?
@@cokomairena man dipped
@@malachilatroy hows going
@@hanabimizuki6024 i got pair yesterday and i fell so much
@@malachilatroywhere did you practice
I’m not a beginner skater but i do learn more about skating watching these videos
Thanks Asha
It's been 20 years since I last had my blades on, and my 12 yrs old daughter asked for a pair so it can be something we could do together. I jumped on the idea, did my research and ordered 2 pairs of Rollerblade skates - not that easy to get in the UK, the variety is small. Thank goodness I found your channel, cause apparently the 20 years break from skating meant I started giving her the worst lessons, absolute opposites of what nad how to do. We're only doing it for fitness (my days of anything beyond are clearly gone) but still I found myself unsure and nervous - also nearly took out a fence trying to stop! Thanks for the great tutorials, my girl is a huge fan of yours now, let's hope with your help I can regain what used to be natural talent ;-)
Hey, you can skate for fitness but encourage your daughter to push herself and try other things like wizard skating, aggressive skating, slalom skating, sliding, but most importantly, encourage her not just to skate for fitness but to enjoy learning new tricks
Why wouldn't you have access to the huge variety of inline skates available in the UK? There are some pretty big vendors there in the EU, so shipping shouldn't be too much.
Thank you thank you thank you!! I started skating again after 10 years (I am 27) and I clearly see that my back pain was coming from leaning forward. Thankfully I do yoga too and I hope I can achieve a good posture when I practice next time. Thank you sooo much for all your tome and effort to teach us😍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🛼⛸
Tip 3 is brilliant 🤩 At least my back will be no more in pain after 15 minutes skating, i hope 😏 I have to try this body position soon.
I never felt more called out when she started talking about turning instead of stopping :'D
Not me watching this doing all the wrong things except the last one because that's how I taught it to myself as a child lol
I used to be able to skate, but a few months ago I hurt my ankle pretty badly and now I’m back at square one, I understand the tying, I’m messing up the stance although I am fully aware of what I should be doing, and stopping is definitely something I have to relearn, it’s hard but I still have the knowledge of what I need t9 do, I just need to put in the practice, I actually just came back from a 2 hour rollerblade practice, I took a walk and found a spot where I skate, I fell down but I didn’t give up and I’m glad, I. Going to keep doing this until I’m back to doing what I love
Thanks for the lesson I've signed up for ice skating lessons that start on the 31st but didn't want to be limited to just the ice so I bought a pair of good inline skates and am having a few issues and you've already taught me a few great things to help me. Thanks 😊
Thank you!!!! I picked this hobby up recently after years and I needed the advice
Thank so much ma'am... helpful😍 Love from Sudanese❤️🇸🇩
Appreciate you! Thanks for the tips. I just got my in-line skates today 😄😄😄
Asha , you’re really treasure ,, thank you sooooo😘
Great video for beginners, thankyou
I am guilty of a few of these. I used to skate with no fear when I was a kid and could sharp turn stop. Now some 20 years later I'm no where near as confident so I will take on board these tips and try harder!
Always good to see asha on the PS channel
Good to be back here!
I found this video very informational. Thank you! I will soon be rollerblading as soon as they come in the mail and I want to be sure I don't make any mistakes. I have been roller skating (quad skates) for some time now. Not consistently, though, but enough to where I could consider myself past the beginner stage.
I'm waiting for my flying eagle to arrive. Collect as much knowledge and trick as i can from you before start my first skating. 😁 Wish me luck guys. I'm 27years old this year. Hope it's not to late to try my childhood dream.
It's never too late to skate! Hope you are enjoying your new skates and living your dream.
I want to start skating and this video seems the best of all I've seen. Thanks so much for helping me with a good start. God bless your heart
Your video's are to the point and good. Thanks.
I got my first pair of inline skates for fathers day this year and have been skating 2-3 times per week since. At this point I consider myself an advanced beginner in that I am pretty comfortable on my skates but my technique leaves much to be desired. Your videos are super helpful. For what its worth my skates don't have a heel brake so I learned using the T stop and it always felt pretty natural.
Omg thank you! I just bought some powerslide inlines and watched other videos and this one auto played. Im so thankful you mentioned the laces thing. I though the laces had to be laced all the way up even though I have straps. Lol you also gave a great tip on the power strap. My ankle/leg is a little skinny and I wondered why I couldnt tighten it. Hahaha its been a decade since ive been on inlines and not quads. Wish me luck 😄
just got back from my first inline skating session 5 minutes ago, then immediately watched this video! I did all 5 items, with the added bonus of not having a helmet, wrist protection, elbow, nor knee protection! hahahaa!
This is the most useful set of tips I've seen for beginner skating, thanks!
This was extremely helpful! Thank you!
I've just started skating at the age of 48. Never done anything similar before! I find your videos really helpful :) At the moment i'm trying to get on the skates every day, even if it's only for ten minutes. i'm gradually getting a feeling of being stable. what you say about getting the weight over the front of the skates really helps me here. i realised a few days a go that i often have the feeling that my skates are about to slip forwards, and moving my weight forwards helps greatly :)
This video is spot on! Thank you 🙏🏻
thanks a lot, i literally made most of the mistakes, i appreciate it!
You helped me correct my posture when skating! TYVM I was leaning forward too much, instead of bending my knees. 👍
really helpful video. thanks.
Precious concrete tips.thank you😉
Great video, thank you
This was great, Asha!
really good tips for beginner.thank you for the tips
THIS is very helpful. I am very new to inline skates.
Stumbled across your video while looking at Luminous wheels, great advices you gave, I do appreciate!
I want to learn the proper way how to skate, will check out the site you mentioned in the video.
Greetings from Romania!

Thanks for the video it really helped me lean roller skating👍👍👍👍👍😀😀😀😀
Wow this position is exactly the one needed to do while riding a horse ❤️ I already loved staking
Thank you.
Halleluyah! After having my surgery yesterday on a broken wrist / forearm, getting metal plates inserted, I can say these points are not to be underestimated. Thank you for sharing. I broke my thumb falling backwards on same skates, and prior to that my left wrist / forearm in 08/2020, needed a cast and physio for months. Not having any break or anything but helmet on with my first outdoor skate was my first massive mistake, breaking the first L wrist clean backwards. Halleluyah, I did not need invasive surgery. I am 203.5cm tall and purchased the PS Next megacruiser 125s, as I couldn't really fit any other boots being a EU 48-49. I soon realized they are far from beginner friendly, the ride height and speed are one thing, but I have been able to learn to handle that. The biggest issue I've had is that the stock frame for these next skates, a great stiff frame mind you, is not long enough to be safe for someone with a boot / foot size much larger than the wheelbase of the frame. I've set the frame alignment further back upon advice from people online and in my local skating community here in Brisbane, Australia. However the physics of being on a smaller balance point to my regular foot, has made these skates so dangerous now I do not dare skate them again.... Perhaps, PS could put some kind of sticker or advice on skates that would have similar issues when you get into larger foot sizes, because it may help someone else not get injured. I do not want to give up on skating though I now feel like I need to buy a new skate or new frame + wheel setup. I've been looking at the MG Elite Casted white frame that comes with the PS Swell Road 125 Grey skate, which is much longer, sadly I can't seem to buy that frame anywhere online or in shops anywhere in the world 😔 Those frames may have been ideal for my Eu 48-49 foot size.
Just thought I'd share with you PS, and maybe it'll help someone else who is looking at getting into inline skating with their purchase.
If you do not have good skating skills i recommend you to change the wheels to 3x110 or change frame and wheels to 4x84. 3x125 is for advanced skaters.
I'm sorry you suffered these injuries and yes its difficult to make skate purchase decisions when one is relatively new to skating. There is soooooo much information out there and thousands of skates to choose from.
I'd recommend for you a comfy hard boot skate like Powerslide Next and 3x90mm and no larger (with a heel brake also. I feel you would benefit from starting over and keeping on your heel brake until you have mastered 2-3 other functional stops (form your highest speeds) such a Stepping plough, T and Powerslide. Too many skaters are skating at high speeds with no heel brake and stopping methods that aren't quite up to it (it's the biggest problem in skating worldwide in my opinion). So you are not alone. In fact many similar stories have come to my eyes over the years and I've seen people return after injury and become even better skaters than they were before. I do appreciate that your large foot size does limit your choices and that makes things even more challenging.
@@SkatefreshVideos Thank you for your kind words and advice Miss Asha. I truly appreciate it. I am not giving up. I am not a quitter and I loved skateboarding as a young child / adult, though 20 years or more away is evidently clear, especially when it comes to falls. I am hoping to, Father willing, change the frame and get a new setup for my NEXT boots (which btw with your tips ie booties and high heel gel pads on ankle bones are super comfy and supportive). The short 255mm frame is far to advanced and it may be amazing one day, when I have the muscles developed and skills to use them. For now though their lethal haha... Have been thinking about the new endless blading trinity frames, that are 303mm axel to axel and can be either 4x100 or 3x110. The other option I've looked at to get length of frame compared to my great height is the PS DH350 frame, that is flat and at a full 95mm longer than mine currently, at 350mm wheelbase. The hardest part finding the right frame for say 3x90 as you recommend is the frame lengths are soo short which is my biggest problem. I was not going fast at all when I broke 2 of these bones. I feel it's true about the heel brake (which I've had since 1st injury) and the stops (I'm working towards mastering the ones mentioned). However, the frame being shorter than my foot (300mm) is the biggest problem.
I absolutely love the feeling of skating and have even dreamed of becoming an instructor one day, Father willing 💛🤲💛 thank you for your Miss Asha
Sorry to hear! There does seem to be a tri skate craze now and I don't think they're particularly beginner friendly. And as you've discovered frame length can have a real difference!
I imagine I'd feel like I'm falling backwards on a setup like yours.
great video!
2months ago I had to master few ways of stopping before I started skating on the streets when I was just starting. I now skate on streets almost everyday. Safely.
3mins in the video and I’m so guilty of these. Thanks for this
Tnx so much!
Dziekuje
Jezdze od Jessieni tantego roku
Dzięki Tobie nauczyłam się hamować T - stopem i beczką oraz bez problemu przejadę 20 km.
Teraz czas nauczyć się jazdy tylem.
Dziękuje bardzo i serdeczne pozdrowienia z Polski
Thanks🥰🥰
thanks maam!
lmao when i was 12 and would go skating at a rink i never learned how to stop and would just slam into the wall to stop instead. determined to do better now
Merci for the video Madame
Refreshing! ;) (Tnx Asha)
Skatefreshing ;-)
@@Statek63 Love this hahahah
My ankles are so thick my strap clicks once.. And that's enough lol.. Your tips are awesome. This summer I decided to start skating at 30 😅. So wish me luck!
My mom taught me how to skate when i was 6 already.. But i had to watch this.. Lol but good luck to all beginners.. Shes right, bend your knees and tie your boots tight.. Don't push yourself to hard you wont get anywhere.... Take it slow..
I've been skating for 15 years and I only just recently found the concept of stopping, this is the consequence of self-teaching lmaooo
Insainly helpful
I wish that Asha posted more free tutorial videos for intermediate/advanced skaters
Oooh, Brighton
Wowww you got an amazing beach behind you, I only get to skate in the city
after 10y , i'm picking it up again.. those 3 wheel skate looks funky.. may i add the correct protection..? it is a huge confidence boost.. beginner: knee padding /elbow, average: elbow/wrist, advanced : wrist.., with a helm on a vert or downhill..
Skating on the beach, I'm jealous! Looks like you have some graphix wheels?
I Remember skating for the first time xD it was about 4 years ago
You are a star and in Brighton 😀
Yupp, im doing all of these :D
edit: Well except lacing, that I do correctly!
👍👍🤩🤩~
This skate clip has become a classic. (Well, at least for me. ;) )
But I'm a beginner and want to go fast :-(
👍👍👍😍
My posture was completely wrong, good!
Excellent and very helpful video👏 I can recognize myself in all your examples😁. Just two questions: 1. I've been skating for several months but my legs keep shaking, I don't feel stable. Is it just about weak muscles? 2. What is the reason my feet and tendons hurt so much almost every time?
1- you need to focus on 1 leg exercice to reinforced muscle aroudn ankle area. Also check your skate if the shell is stiff enoughand high enough to support your ankle.
2- what skate do you have? it can happen that the fit of your skate are not adapter to your feet shape. if you skate are heatmoldable it can help a lot.

@@PowerslideInlineskates Thank you so much for your reply and suggestions🙏 😃 The model is Zealot - Classic Ella 4 WA
I've done several videos about why skaters' feet hurt, so hopefully something there helps you sort that out.
th-cam.com/video/rn5WixdiaE4/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/TyOyKHJk-9I/w-d-xo.html
And yes your knees are shaking because your leg muscles are working overtime and they need strengthening. Skating will help to strengthen them but you can also try off skates trainings and general fitness squats etc.
I also highly recommend you watch these 2 starter videos which will explain the knee bend you need in greater detail than in this video. I think you'll quickly see why your knees hurt when you try the static exercises and realise the muscular strength needed for even basic skating. It's pretty awesome exercise.

1:55 On my FR1 skates the top strap does not bottom out but there is a lot of excess that wraps inside between the outer hard shell and the boot. I have thought about cutting the strap shorter to eliminate that.
Same here with roces freestyle skates, i have to push on the front to barely be able to pass the strap. I have trouble tightening the straps since i got them. I'll definitely try the cutting
@@adriendebosse6941 Since I posted that comment I cut the top straps. That has worked out well. The top strap is no longer a problem.
@@drescherjm Thx for the feedback, i know whet i'll do this weekend :)
@@drescherjm just did that today, indeed way better and easier to tighten the strap
💙💙
This has been very helpful. What distance do you recommend a beginner should do to start?
beginner we recommand to do many small drills exercice to start. When you feel comfortable, then a 5km is a good start + more drills...then potential is infinite.
After getting back into blading from a few years off not doing it. Is it common to feel it in the feet? I know you're not a doctor but I'm thinking it's just because I haven't done the sport for so long. The insteps/top of my feet were aching after. So I'm guessing it's just because I was using all those tendons and muscle more than usual because of the activity.
yeah its perfectly normal, it hurts in the beginning but that goes away after some time once your feet adjust to rollerblading again
Foot pains (and back pain) like this are super common. I've done several videos on the topic as it's so common. Here's one of them. Hope it helps you if it's continuing.

I'm starting off with 4x110mm wish me luck!!
I have speed laces on mine so I don't have to worry. I just pull up on the laces and then it's tight. just roll up the laces and then tuck them in the slot at the top.
Beautiful
Could've used this vid before I went skating recently. hahaha, the number of scares I went through.
Hi just one question wheel size for beginners.
I started inline skating last month my skates have
84mm 82a wheels .do you recommend a smaller wheel ? I seem to be doing ok ,but I am sure I could do better. Also any suggestions on skating over small twigs, as our park has very smooth surfaces but becomes littered with leaves etc.
Oh , by the way I am 75 next week but have done a fair amount of ice skating 👍I find inline challenging
84mm is fine for a new skater, you don't need to go smaller.
Advice for twigs? AVOID them or pick them up in your skate area before you then practice. I spend 20 mins picking up all debris on the ground before my classes to protect my students and myself from tripping in class. It's a good practice for every skater unless you are on a trail skating distances.
I would like to see you in México. Preety soon.
What is the realistic progression time frame to go from absolute beginner to being comfortable skating in the park/street? I'm quite tall and 40+
In the sissor position can you have either foot in front? Except when you want to use the heel brake then the right foot would be in front.
after already 20 years of driving im still far away from mastering breaking, there are even some stops (parallel slide / powerstop and Magic Slide) I'm still not able doing.....
So yea. It definitely needs more Time than driving. I can finally Drive on Any Surface really high speed and so on, Im finally at least a good stoper, but still Skating is a endless travel ...
i have bad balance on inline skates so i keep falling if i try glide/ skate tips?
