  • no bs guide to gear and falling down on your skates.
    save time, money and effort by sticking with the essentials for safety gear. + a bonus about how to fall.
    falls suck, but they don't always have to be tragic and body awareness will go a long way!
    hope this helps!
    stay safe friends.

    Learning how to fall has so many applications too. I was diagnosed with a seizure disorder when I was 11, prior to that I was Roller skating almost before I could walk. I had learned how to take a fall during Roller skating lessons, so later when I had seizures and had warning, I could just roll into the fall. Recently I have wanted to take up skating again (as leisurely skating is a low impact way to stay fit), since I had brain surgery and no longer have seizures. I'm 45 so, this safety first video and other videos of yours have been a real boost to my confidence, and brought back to me all I learned in that skating class when I was a kid. Knee and Elbow pads are on my shopping list while I wait for my skates to arrive. I already have a helmet. 😉😉☺☺

    Another good tip, If you find yourself falling backward on your butt/back, it's wise to tuck your chin toward your chest. It'll help you from smacking your head, helmet or not! Learned this in martial arts, and it saved me a couple of times.

    I confess I needed convincing to get a helmet, because I thought I would find it annoying to wear... Turns out, it isn't annoying at all 😂 and I feel a lot safer. I skate on the streets, so I'm not just wearing my gear to protect me from falling, but also from, well, traffic.

    My sister and I just went roller skating this morning for the 1st time since the Fall (and we only did it like 2 times then). And, we had everything except I did not have a helmet, she did. I'll get one, promise! Luckily we didn't fall and just kept a slow pace, cause we're wobbly AF. This video was just so timely. Thank you for this, I'm gonna PICK A SIDE AND COMMIT!!

    I got rollerskates for my birthday last year and made the mistake of not wearing my wrist guards when I tried them out for the first time, I fell and damaged my wrist so I had to wear a brace for a couple of weeks. It scared me into not rollerskating again cause I thought I had broken my thumb, but this is encouraging me to try again and that falling doesn't have to be scary!

  • @DrSuzanne
    @DrSuzanne หลายเดือนก่อน

    I keep practicing new tricks since I picked up skating again, and I can't learn anything. It's because I'm too nervous to fall. I think if I buy gear and practice falling it'll help me a ton. Thanks for this video. I think it's going to be key for moving on to the next level.

  • @anjuanyourhero694

    Dasia i have never seen those thigh pad things before. Thats one piece of gear i didn't know existed. Interesting. I learned to fall but no matter how close i make sure i get low to the ground, i seem to still take slight damage on my wrists. so i now skate with wrists guards, and no i don't seem to hurt anything. so this is awesome! Thank you Dasia!

    YesYes get the gear.
    Listen to Dasia🙂
    It protects you more than you know and it gives you confidence to skate and learn tricks. I've read so many comments about broken and bruised. You have plenty of time to look cuter later. Right now focus on you and safety. Believe me I have all the gear head to butt😁, it really does help.
    I also have a playlist of some skaters I like with helpful tips for beginners to those who care to journey over💕
    🙂Happy skating 🛼💕🛼

    @Combinehuntsmanunit 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I personally have done fine with wearing baggy jeans or tracksuit pants with a thick jumper and hand warmers, it doesn’t make the impacts better but I have kept my skin on. Definitely invest in safety gear, it will make you so much more confident skating. It took my so long to figure everything out when I was terrified of falling but with some knee and elbow pads you will mostly avoid serious injuries. Also wear a helmet, I have hit my head so many times on the concrete and I think I have done damage so always wear a helmet unless your planning on skating on the grass
