    With tip 1 you say bring your weight over the center of the skates, but do you keep it there during the corners or do you bring it more to the back? Because I thought your skates would steer better when you are more on your back wheels when you are on a 200m track?

    • @JoeyMantiaOfficial
      @JoeyMantiaOfficial  Před 3 lety +82

      I always try to keep my weight in the middle of my skates and push there as well. If you can find a constant balance you will be able to manipulate your skates easily (turn them), but often times if that skill set isn't strong enough your weight will rock forward and back in your skates and it can feel like they simply won't turn and/or that you're not in control, in which case people tend to sit on their heels. This is probably because focusing on putting the weight on just the heel prevents that rocking motion, but puts stress on some wheels more than others as you skate. My thought process for targeting the middle of the skate is that distributing your weight evenly over all the wheels will both help you roll and grip better vs loading so heavily on just 1 or 2 wheels if you can manage to engage your core and control your body enough to find that balance.

      @@JoeyMantiaOfficial thank you for the great and clear respons. The reason is not instability but coaches with an ice skating background who always shout keep your weight on the back.

    57 years old. Haven’t been on inline skates in 20+ years. Bought a pair to get some much needed exercise. Grew up on hockey skates but never really got proficient on inlines. This video made SO MUCH SENSE and helped me to visualize how to inline skate better. Will be checking out your other videos as I get my skating-legs back in action. Thanks!!!

      Still skating, Jim? 62 here and just getting back into skating, hoping to get legs in shape for ski season. Pulled out old skates and got new wheels and bearings and it's just like riding a bicycle, you never forget. Did not forget the feeling when I ended up on my butt the second day, either.

    Man, thank you so much. Been skating for a year and just taking one session keeping these things in mind has greatly improved my skating. Its improved my speed and endurance a lot, but I didn't expect it to also help with balance and concentrating weight between legs. I'm finally able to start using my heel brake and t-stop. They still need a lot of work, but I just didn't have the balance to even start them before. Your tips about coming down softly with the other skate and about pushing to the side particularly helped with the balance issue.
