I feel so heart broken from how the xgames purposely killed agressive inline skating a lot of people that did it professionally got hurt behind it.
You can't really say they killed it. They just didn't support it.
@@elliott8596 not supporting is killing...
A lot of the reason why we were dropped was because of our uncool status like Pro_fart said, but it also had to do with the fact that our saggin' pants and bullshit attitudes didn't help. As a collective, no one listened to instructions, and our formatting didn't really work for "run" style contests. Other sports resented the fact we existed (very much in the same way we look at scooters today).
And now we have flow skate😂
You cant blame xgames a dying sport. And you cant argue that it wasn’t dying. I was around back then and seen it fade away with my own eyes.
Bill: Lenses are pricey. - A few shots later: Bill has a new bruise on his leg, camera lens is cracked. :c
Right hahaha
doesn't look cracked, just scratched or if he's lucky it's just dirt ;)
Lots of time + effort go into making each BSS 🎥. Appreciate the extra blood + sweat that went into this one since you were skating on just 4 pebbles 💪.
Thanks C!! Haha, blood and sweat is very literal.
This is very entertaining. As someone that has skated long distance and crappy surfaces for years on aggressive small wheeled skates I love to watch others struggle! Feel my pain!
I just got some new aggressive boots but got 72mm frames and wheels to make my life a bit easier.
Does agressive wheels get used sooner if you skate around the city? I always thought it'a only for skate parks
@@RapIsDrug No, the breakdown is similar, or even slower than regular inline skate wheels due to the hardness. Aggressive wheels are just smaller and harder wheels, with that being said it can be a little more challenging in the city.
What do you mean by long distances? I've been looking to buy an aggressive skate but I'm not sure if it's worth it
@@WheelerKyle I meant 10-20 kilometres as a minimum for long distances. When I used to ride those distances and further on aggressive skates I was using them as transport from suburbia to the city and then skating in them when I got there before skating home.
Buying an aggressive skate is a great idea and their worth is really all about being able to do tricks with them you couldn't without them. They are super fun if you are into tricks like grinds and are built to take a lot more abuse than other skates.
But there is always a trade off. Honestly a great solution is owning multiple pairs of skates of different styles. Use one set for doing marathons and another at the skatepark.
@@WheelerKyle He means long distance as in a far away distance, which is set in a long period of time. I have done the same and managed to skate 4 hours long distance with my aggressive skates. What are you looking to get out of aggresive skates? Urban use, or good ol grinding and tricks?
Great video! im an intermediate skater and i found it really helps when using gloves it makes it so you take the impact and it will sting but from even some of my harder crashes it doesn't break the skin. to all beginners reading this wear gloves that cover your whole hand and have some rubber on them it makes you take a lot less damage and theres no downsides. i use gloves brand name "head" and ive had 5 hard crashes with them on and not even a scratch not to me nor the gloves.
Love that you showed the falls🙌🏿 not everyone's perfect. Thanks
That first fall reminds me of videos where a cat is getting ready to jump and then freezes and falls straight down 🙈
You're the only person I can watch who continually skates forward my bro you got powerful strides and your interactions with the environment are entertaining to watch man keep it up bill would love to skate with you someday 💯💯
I was on some 3x110s for a couple months having a blast when I went back to my aggressives. Excited to say that bombing down the driveway into the street produced the quickest slam I ever did. A bit more plastic than I remembered! Thanks for the great content. Love watching your videos and trying new things out that you do. I never enjoyed cruising around as much as I do now!
That looked like a session, Bill, I know I'd be feeling it the next day. Looking sharp in that skate park.
your voice over and video quality is awesome man, hope you get more views!
My worst idea: doing cross rolls in the street on the way home from the skatepark, definitely felt that fall.
Love the reference to The Grinder. I really liked that show a lot, but then again, I'm a Rob Lowe fan. Loved him in The Orville, too.
Your grinds already look so much smoother
I loved just listening to you calmly speak.. it was like an inline sk8 ASMR lol i loved it super relaxing just watching you skate and talk
He's got a Bob ROss thing going on haha
your voice is so smooth. i would love to have videos without the music. your voice makes me so calm and that feels so good since ive had a lot of anxiety lately. im going to order a pair of Aeons 60 Basic this week. i need to start skate again after 10-15 years. thank you so much for this
YOu should be using the Aeon 80's. That's a good aggressive skate also good for the street. I know you've already covered that before...but worth another mention.
I want those badly but they are out of stock everywhere.
Joshua Montgomery, I must have got mine in time but I had to order from the UK LOCO motion. They came really fast though to Taiwan, where I am now. Really comfortable skate. Almost like skating in my slippers.
I would like to see Bill in those, feels like it might suit him better
You're right, they're incredible skates. I should wear them more!
Are the Aeons comfortable?? Im thinking of getting them or something better if available.
i put on the rblades and i just want to go everywhere grind everything jump over anything ,, so normally i just planned to go to the park nearby but end up downtown or up in the city al bruised up of course but with a big smile . cool video bro .. exactly what i always think about when i go ride my k2 fatty s up the streets i always thought about putting up a brake in one of the rblades
Man these videos just be getting better n better
Love it! You fall over better than anyone else! That finger always sucked 🤣 great stuff Bill. I stick to my 3 x 110mm for street. So much smoother 👌
Love your devotion to blades, no matter of wheel count. Keep rollin!
"I have to be careful " ..... Then skates like a man possessed 😂😆👍 onya Bill 👍
I think this is the beginnings of Bill Stoppard becoming the king of boot down cess slides
Parabéns 🎈
Foi um belo percurso.
Estou começando a patinar, mas uso os protetores e capacete.
Have never even put on a pair of skates but I've just come across this channel and man it's awesome hahah.
Nice video. Every time I watch Brink, I wonder if it's realistic that they would use their aggressive skates for urban and racing scenes.
Brink's cool N all but Airborne all day
This video is so satisfying and m educative, I love the smooth talking while showing yourself skating through the city. I’m buying skates to go to my work, and I have been questioning if it’s really a good idea, Idk if they are meant to be for the streets but I’ll see. Thanks for the vid, really enjoyable.
Lol I’ve said the same thing after falling hard “ ok I’m going home I’m wilding out “
I think Bill has the voice and the posture for being the new James Bond
James bond is an Englishman right?
Nice grinding, Bill! When I shift from one type of blades to another, it’s terrible first couple of hours.
@10:50 tired... 2 seconds later... Sprint... 😅 👍🏻 Nice vid again! #no-more-finger-push-ups... 🤣🤙🏻
Nice shoutout to the Grinder, good show, and totally unexpected to hear you mention
Those are some awesome skills that you can do all that while holding that camera stick. I'm sure holding that camera stick has to throw off what you're doing a little bit.
Astute observation. I'm pretty comfy with it now, but it still inhibits my backward flow where arms are so helpful.
Finally a video where no one is clamoring to be first 😑. Thanks for this, I was actually wondering this recently!
Can you and Tiago French skater meet up it would be cool to see my favorite skaters to skate together plzzz🥺
YES!! So much so in fact that I'm thinking of getting a pair because I feel like my 2018 twister edges are too much for me, lol. See, I've had tendonitis in both knees when I gained weight years ago after college. Now at 45, I've lost considerable weight since then. I was 135lbs when I started skating at 19. My heaviest was 218lbs.....sluggish and many knee and back problems. Now, I'm a nimble 178lbs. Im working on going down to 170 so almost there! I skated for 5 years everyday on agressive skates so I know being low to the ground is what I miss.
such a humble badass. gotta love it. kickass class i guess we'll call it
I learnt the down hill one leg behind you 90 degrees pointing down on 1 wheel downhill speed pose before i finished my power stop! I can do a half decent power slide, i tried it and learnt it in one day, since during my botched power stop attempts my left skate was already transitioned 180 degrees backwards, now to learn it at higher speeds
The what?
@@NA-xp2cr The proper form for speed skating down hill, one foot skating with the other foot on 1 wheel behind you, as low as possible.
Bending fingers/thumb can be pain for months and though you can still skate.
Twisting a knee is bad, no more skate till better.
Put some UFS big wheel frame on that boot!
pebbles can almost trip me up with 80mm wheels if I am not expecting it. cannot imagine what smaller wheels will do. actually, thanks for giving me an imagination with this video.
You’re the don Gorgon men I want to skate like you one ☝️ day I hope.
Yes, if you have flat 72mm or higher. I got my Aeon 80s delivering supplies and having a blast. Surprised you did not mention them in this clip. Great content as always, Bill!
is there a mix between agressive and freestyle rollerblades ?
This video reminds me why I wear gloves
I'm oddly coming around to the glove idea.
@@BillStoppard I really like my Triple Eight Downhill Longboard Gloves. I have the Tie Dye version. I use my gloves in all types of weather. I never skate without them.
Love my Seba wrist guards, I barely realize I'm wearing 'em. Big enough to wear thin gloves inside 'em, and small enough to wear heavier gloves over 'em. The Seba knee pads are great, too. Bill recently inspired me to get some Powerslide protective shorts, which I'm loving. Can fit anything over 'em and I can scarcely tell I'm wearing 'em. Along with elbow pads and my Triple Eight helmet, I'm now fully padded up every time I skate, with confidence, now in my 33rd year of rollerblading.
@@fourcubed47 protective shorts?
when i was in toronto i stayed not far from that park, i believe the Hotel was called Hotel Alexandria or something like that near chinatown. Love the skate community in Toronto
edit: 8:13 i stayed right in that hotel
been waiting to see this video from you. I hit the streets of Toronto in aggressives and in some places it is just not fun for me but I try anyway. had wheels burn out on the hot cracks of queen street
also 3:56 I lived the first half of my life on that street, you went past my old place at 4:20
I didn't know Dunbat park was open to skate again, guess I'm going soon
You should try something like the USD aeon 60 for a nicer middlenground between small wheel anti rocker and fast city skate. The Aeon keeps things as low as possible while giving a slightly larger wheel and still some ability to grind. And running the larger 60mm wheels with 4 flat will help a LOT with the cracks and bumps.n
Do a video with USD Aeon 72 with a street skate and park skate
damn, this hurt to watch! Kudos Bill for showing that you are human.
This is like aggressive inline ASMR. Dude should narrate an Audible book.
been rollerblading for a month recently discovered your channel, amazing stuff ik this an old vid but damn bro good content
Haha, I like your rebellious experiments, unconventional attitude and urge for exploring the unknown.
Those falls remind me of the day I decided to try the Impalas outside, and kept getting tripped up by *the low hanging bolt on toestops* 😑🔥 (operation toe stop removal underway 🤣)
Oooooh removing a toestop from a quad? That doesn't sound fun.
N A it’s not hard, lol... it’s not like I need it. (can always plow, T or hockey stop 😄) *sigh* wheel base lowered when I switched the stock wheels to Bones ATF.
Congrats on the Royale on the rail. (I saw an earlier video where you were in your living room practicing with a square metal bar.)
Is wrist protection an option? That way you won't try landing on your fingers because you won't be afraid of messing up your wrists.
I personally don't see the appeal regarding inline grinding. They don't seem very aesthetically pleasing and seem to sap power from a flow.
Do they feel fun? I've never done them. But as a spectator they don't look fun. They remind me of soap shoes grinds... something I tried to like, but couldn't get into.
Love your stuff Bill, first time commenter, long time watcher of the channel. GC big or MEGA frames, I got 78mm on my GC bigs with valo boots for park. I love fitness size/shape wheels on aggressive style boots. Will never downplay fitness style boots/frames/wheels.
Aw I feel so bad for him for putting himself through this all in the name of science! Thank you for risking it!
So I have been skating through the city with my Agressive skates since I skated, which is quite long now,and it wanted to give my opinion.
Of course they aren't as effective because of their small wheels. Hockey stops are annoying but spin breaking is great. Long strides are compleatly ok with a bit of practice.
I have a flat setup with a tiny bit of rocker, which is a lot nicer than the shown antirocker setup. That makes them even heavier than they already are which definitely is annoying for longer trips. Still worth it.
So in general would I recommend skating through the city with aggressive skates? Yeah totally! Especially when having to look out for cars and pedestrians it doesn't make difference speedwise, is just as safe, and feels good. Especially when you just want to get to a skatepark.
Just wanted to say this gave me a lot of confidence in my purchase lol. I ordered some Aeons with 72mm wheels and was a bit nervous I should have went with a 3x110 but I think I'll be solid especially with the Flat 72 😯
@@AlmostLakai94 Yeah, I have aeon 60,that are worn down to be quite a bit smaller and they totally work for the city.
I have noticed that they wear down a bit more than normal wheels, but that is not a huge downsize. Of course, skating through the city on weird terrain is hard at first with all wheels, but I am confident, that you will manage even with small wheels.
@@myotiswii I'm really digging the way the Aeons feel so I'm glad I'll be able to get plenty of use out of them. I may even check out the 80s/60s whenever I can afford them depending on which would fit my needs lol. Appreciate the response 🙏🏽
@@myotiswii This is good to hear. I ordered some Aeon 60s for the flat setup, with the hopes of being able to skate both around town and aggressive, but after watching this video I was concerned that the wheels would be too small.
Body on point. My god I need to buy aggressive skates again. I destroy regular ones.
Bill, you recently got me back into skating and i thank you for that but i am realising i need better/bigger wheels because i have only ever used aggressive skates. So i am looking for some advice on where to go from here i guess. I am asking you because i respect your opinion, if it helps i like to skate long distances and smoothly glide about the place but i live in wales (uk) there is only hills here nothing else and the ground is rough and uneven mostly oh and i have a child on the way so budget is a thing unfortunately.. any advice at all will be greatly appreciated, i'm trying to get back to myself and this is the first step (wheel)
I was just wondering about this very topic!
I've only ever owned aggressive skates, but I only ever skated on the streets. Always found it really difficult - that was before I found out about non-aggressive skates. Silly me. Just ordered the 2020 GT Complete from Adapt. Can't wait to skate and get better. Also, love the American Beauty reference hah
Can you repeat the test with the Aeon 80s please?
this camera is very nice
Took a few for the team in this one!
2:01 was wheel bite from those aggressive inlines
I just begin watching this video and i am very tense because ive been doing the exact same thing for the past 4 years or so and from experience i can tell it is extremely dangerous, the small wheels can easily lock on rocks or cement joints, holes, imperfections and u name it. And i also know Bill likes going very fast. But all worked alright, things could've been much worse. Like in my case where i fell and were not wearing my helmet. I woke up in a hospital bed and the nurse told me i had suffered a concussion plus fractured my face in 3 places and also broke part of a tooth.. Not the best outcome to my many daily skating sessions because i use the skates as my main commute option.
That's some nice air your holding.
The feeling when you get back on regular frames after aggressive ones...
What's it like?
@@NA-xp2cr Like going from a cast to a running shoe.
@@BillStoppard Thanks for the analogy!
This would have been an absolute perfect video for me if you would have compared an agro boot with 80mm wheels fit for the streets and your normal rec skate. I’m curious if you can substitute
I'm still falling when I try to stop on aggressive skates, yesterday was one of those days where all tricks where 1st try and then I did fall when I stopped to put my shoes on.
Those last 2 falls, I feel like part of that could be attributed to fatigue. What are your thoughts?
I notice I'm much more prone to a fall when I tell myself “I'm tired but let me do one more before catching my breath”
Basically it reminds me of taking a set to failure when you know you should have racked the bar after the previous rep.
The first of the last was attempting boot slide; I knew falling was a possibility. The second was due to landing a ledge like I was wearing 8 wheels, forgot about the lack of middle wheels and landed on frame. My lame-ass sprint start was due to fatigue though!
Great vid👌🏽
Is throwing some 4x80 frames on aggressive skates good for city and free cruising?
Helo sir ,what type of aggre skates do you wear? I see it can go to the streets or rough road etc 😮😎
My struggle between aggressive and urban/free skates is that the aggressive skates have that, sleek, cool and minimalist look that i like plus some cool colorways. I'm not looking to grind, so there's almost no point in me getting them other than for the look of it. I'm struggling to find free skates that achieve the same look, so wondering if it makes sense to get aggressive flat skates (4 wheels instead of 2) with larger wheels
Yes, if you like 'skating' you must get 4 wheels. Anti Rocker is so prohibitive on the streets; no stairs, no easy curb rolls, no rolling speed bumps, bad in potholes. A skate with a huge gap (h-block) is made for parks/rails, but is miserable on the streets. 60mm and above can be perfectly skate-able. 70mm+ will give you full boot clearance on powerstops and crossovers.
Would the Aeon 60 with a flat 4 wheel 60mm setup work for skating around town? I unfortunately can’t fit the smallest Aeon 72 or 80 skates, but I fit the Aeon 60 perfectly. Would they work for urban skating or would it be no fun?
so i bought a pair of NJ skates aggressive inline skates. I cant tell if its me or the skates but i went to a metro park near me and the whole trail was just a bumpy ride. do i need better wheels? or do i need a whole new skate?
the stitch is visible, you should rotate camera 90 degrees so the stitch is vertical not horizontal
I hope you got better after falling down I feel bad
Great cardio
Take care bro😊👍👍❤️
You should make a 125 triiskate in the park video now.
💪
Really good Video, hope your fingers heal :D
Did you ever try the Powerslide Doops skates? You can waer them with your shoes on. Would like your opinion about them :)
I hate the idea of my inline skating affecting my shoes too; I lose enough pants as it is.
one tip! Wrist protection! (but you are probably not a piano player).
Where is the camera stick? I can see the shadow.
Oh, boy!
A mi parecer por lo que observo,patinabas como si no tuviera sentido salir a patinar por la diversión y la sensación de libertad.te lo digo porque a mi hay veces que me pasa.Y cuando eso sucede es cuándo me caigo mas...
Damn, im a beginner and i thought itll be easier using lower wheel like this aggressive skate on the road. I dont mind its slower, but it seems it tripped easily 😢
Is that better than urban skates when the frame is changed to an urban skate frame and wheels?
invisible stick
yeah that pinky always sucked!!!
Do you think with some practice they would be ok at least in the city?
Brad jackson hand glove
Moral of the story..
Leave aggressive skates in the skate park
I mean at least get a oysi frame 72 60 60 72 that’s a decent enough city aggressive skate watch the documentary streets of Lagos these guys are skating around the streets of Lagos Nigeria in Oysi frames
Hey im curious. How is your back pain? Do you experience any problems?
This was hilarious 😂
