"Your friend laying in the ground" 😂😂
+Mildred Shearer Thats one of my favourites. Ive jumped several students before lying down next to each other.....very closely
+SkatefreshAsha wow😂 u should do a video showing us how you do it!😱
Hahaha.. I read the comment before Asha said that.. I wandered whats that about. Then when she said it, lmao, I bursted in laughter 🤣
"Windmill of death" 😂😂😂 i love this definition
I'm just love the way you explain the lessons. Simplicity, elegance and charm!
thank you, you helped me a lot I used to always do "the windmill of death"😃
I love these videos! I never learned to rollerblade or rollerskate as a kid so now I'm 29 trying to learn how to rollerblade. These videos really help me understand the mechanics of the movements/ actions
I love her humor! I will never forget that phrase, “the windmill of death” 😂. As always amazing tutorial! Thank you for sharing🙏.
Glad you like my little phrases. Hopefully if you ever do the dreaded arm swing on a jump you'll immediately know about it and correct it. It his THE cause of falls on jumps. Control this and you'll be jumping with ease.
I don't know how to express my love for you and your videos, super helpful. I remember few months ago your video made skate for the first time in my life. Big love from Nigeria 🇳🇬
thank you so much for the tips
Thanks, you are my teacher, I've learned so much from you
Thanks for making such helpful videos
Very cool, Asha! Super useful technique.
Thanks, glad it was helpful. For more stuff than I post here, sign up on my website www.skatefresh.com where I can then share more.
No kidding. I usually fall backwards and bruise my tailbone when I try even small jumps. I'll give this method a try.
Thanks for your information
Great lesson!
ASHA it’s me shanti u helped me a lot I watched this 10 times
nice move i am impressed .thanks for the lessons

im here because i tried jumping yesterday and fell on my tailbone really bad. the name windmill of death really suits it lol
thank you
Thank you :)
Thanks Asha :-)
Cartwheel of death 🤣🤣🤣 brilliant tutorial, I’ll give it a go 👍🏻🙏🏻
I love Asha
just found out skatefresh is based in the uk ! and here i was searching all over the net for lessons and only finding really hard prices and places really far from me , then i was searching up skating in gladstone park to see if i could skate in the park and i found skatefresh am so thrilled the prices are fair too!
We aim to please. Have you come for a class yet? Hope we can get you booked in soon.
Did you come to class? I don't recognise your name form my past students....
Hi Asha, great tutorial thanks. I’ve tried to download your Apps here in Ireland but it states they aren’t available in this region maybe you could check the availability setting please?
Hi. This is Sergio from Team Skatefresh. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. The apps are not there anymore, they have been converted into online courses you can take through a web browser, without using device storage. You can find them here inlineskatecourse.com/courses/ Besides, there are courses for quads at skatefresh.com/all-quads-courses/
Very informative 👍👍👍
Glad it was helpful!
I wonder what if someone watched this on mute without subtitles, saw asha do the windmill of death and went, "cool, i am going to practice my jumps now". A lot of ifs but it could happen 🤣
Love it thanks a lot. From Dubai
Hi Jeany. Do you know I'll be in Dubai and Bu Dhabi the weekend after next on 2nd and 3rd November? Why don't you coe to a class and learn from me personally. It's going to be amazing fun to skate in UAE! Check out the details on my world Tour page;

What if I jump over the buckle always broken ?
Ty❤💚💛
I am biggener so I have not any comfortable place I can do only skating on road so plz tell me that I am get which states plz
Hi Asha, I’m getting older and falling heavy if I lose my balance. Suffered a severely bruised hip which was swollen. Could you recommend any good crash shorts to help me please?
I'm afraid I can't recommend any because i have never bought any. Hip and coccyx protection is best.
I recommend more than anything learning completely properly from scratch. Try my Beginner app which is designed for complete adult beginners and covers EVERYTHING you need to know. Even my CZcams vids are short, incomplete and missing huge amounts of essential information. Here's the apps page on my site, choose Apple or GooglePlay;
www.skatefresh.com/apps/
great. where did you get the brake for these that you use in another video? is there a shop in rio or sao Paulo?
Yes Rolling Sports is in Sap Paulo and also online throughout Brasil.
Sweet. Nowhere in uk seems to have it in stock until next year
Asha, this is a great video. There are several roller rinks in my city, and the other day there was a guy who was trying to jump and touch this decoration which was hanging from the ceiling. Of course he flailed and landed on his butt! He also was doing something that you touch upon in many of your videos: 'Skating as fast as he can with ZERO ability to stop!' Peace to you, Asha! ;)
Ahhhh you can spot them too! Stay very far away from them. They will plough into you as a stopping method and then apologise as you are on the ground. Learning to skate (and stop) proerly is not just for your safety but for all those people around you. Let's all just get our basics nailed so we dont kill ourselves or eachother (or our butts).
@@SkatefreshVideos :)
I jumped for the first time today 💖💫
Great well done you! Arms and hands down I hope!
I noticed, many people using these "new" skates with 3 wheels. What would you say are pros and cons of 3 big wheel design?
+PeckoBre Pros: faster, lighter, smoother over bumps and bad surfaces, holds speed longer, reaches higher max speeds, good technique is rewarded. Cons; faster (you must have your stopping methods honed properly obviously). That's it, I think they are great and Im sure they are the future of inline skating. In 5 years everyone will be on 3 wheels I predict....
SkatefreshAsha currently I'm practicing my stops on four wheels and I can't wait to hop on some triskates
I want to use my skates as a transportation means and I'm sure three wheels give the smoothness and speed that I want
I really enjoy your videos. Could you post a review on which rollerblades to buy for a man. I went to my local store and they pushed Alkaline hockey skates on me but I really disliked them...
I have a 40 page ebook which I wrote on this subject and it was available for free on ym website for the last year. i changed the free gift now to video tutorial packs. If you send me an email on my contacts page on skatefresh.com I can send you the book for free. It will answer most of your questions.
Hello Apu Skating I have been learning for a month but I have no idea how to figure it out. How to figure out how to figure out how to make a short video will give me a chance to watch it. Your videos are very beautiful so please make a video for me how to catch a break so Fazlul Haque
u r awesome rollerblade teacher > I've learned from u backward crisscross but I failed when I try normal backward by make it back V> i'm from Egypt so I don't think there is a center for teaching some technics

See you there!
Ma'am I'm learning skating nowadays and ur vdos are really helping me alott..!!! Thank you so much for your guidance. Love from India.
2019, 29th March. Imma try and practice this literally right now.
How did it go?
@@SkatefreshVideos OH MY GOD YOU REPLIED !!!!!! I just want to say how much I LOVE your videos. I bought my roller blades recently and I keep watching tutorials to learn from there. Anyways my practicing on rough surface made my whole body vibrate so much and I actually tried it on the road as I really want to inline skate on the road and just move around but the place I live in now has really rough roads so I had a lot of vibration along my entire body and my roller blades kept stopping by themselves because the surface was extremely rough.
Cant wait to get my k2s and try some grinds again and for those days my wife has the car and i need to get home from work. I jus started back skateboarding again but ima fruit booter at heart lol
hey ya, im a newbie skater from indonesia and i wanna ask something
does size of the wheels greatly affect our style of the jump? i mean, what is the best wheels to jump? small size or big size, im using 68mm (if im not forgot my wheels size)
The answer is "it depends what kind of jumps you re doing?".... In skate park with ramps? Flat to flat? Over obstacles? Bigger wheels are harder to land as the wheel is taller so more margin for error. Smaller wheels best for jumping yours seem super small, but fine up to 80mm.
For more skate advice, sign up on www.skatefresh.com.
oops, sorry for the size, today i check the box and its written over there 84mm. i train to jump flat to flat on a road. i always do that wind of death :(
84mm is fine for jumping on the flat. But you really have to focus on your arms not going in a circle behind your back. Keep them in view infant of you.
Hint! if when you got safety into your jumps...grabs or shifty helps air awareness...and you do a fist of fury less...
Verry good
+Niels Sams Thanks Niels, glad you like it. Come and get more stuff direct from me by signing up on my email list at www.skatefresh.com. You'll receive a free gift when you do.
hey asha, how do you find skate venues wherever you're going?
lof yr videos :)
I ask local skaters where they skate! Usually I'm lucky and people take me and show me the best places.
Is it easier to jump on skates than without? I stink at jumping in general, but I see all these urban skaters effortlessly jumping & I wonder if the fast forward momentum makes it easier to get off the ground? I want to jump , but I’m afraid of falling because I am 50 & don’t want to get hurt (I am currently healing a shoulder injury, yeaaa) 😦
Its harder, because you cant use your feet and ankles as much to generate power. You mostly rely on core strength, your arms, and knees. Inline skates have a flat skating surface and it makes jumping harder. Try standing on the ground, and jump without lifting your heels as preparation. Thats kinda the feel of it. If you look at figure skates used on ice, notica that they have curved blades which help to generate more power, which somewhat imitates the way you use your feet when you jump.
nice
woow i really love the way you turn,..its still my main issue
I'm using the Lunge Turn here. Why don't you let me teach you (for FREE) using my Online Video Course where the Lunge Turn is the free giveaway lesson. You'll see this is much more detailed than anything you'll find on CZcams and just like being in class with me.

The windmill of dead...hahaha
Hi Asha, what inline skate brands did you wear ? is it recomend for beginner like me ? thx .. :)
+lckyantn2008 In this video Im wearing Powerslide Hardcore Evo 2016 boot with 3x110 frame (243) and Matter Maxg wheels. A divine set up.
hmm, charming .. i'm using a pair hardbooth inline skate. But my ankle is get a quick sore as long as i'm playing. Do you had suggestions to overcome and heal in my feet ? thx.
Hi Asha, your frames are Powerslide Pleasure tool 3x110mm or another model? Thank you.
Yup, the Pleasure Tool 3x110.
thx Asha .. (y)
I would wish for more of a breakdown on a jump itself - e.g. the fact that you have to jump with flat feet. That is really difficult for me and I keep falling on any landing.
Hi. This is Sergio from Team Skatefresh. There is more about that in the Advanced online course by Asha here skatefresh.com/product/how-to-skate-advanced-level-full-course/ If you keep falling that's probably because you are placing more weight forwards or backwards when you land. Practice jumps on grass hundreds of times until you feel confident, do it on the same spot, not trying to cover a distance. Focus on the fact that your body needs to go vertical, not forwards, you go up and go down in a vertical motion.
❤
She's look asome 😊
I’ve been skating for 8 mos and is it normal that I’m still scared to attempt or learn to jump?
Hi. This is Sergio from Team Skatefresh. Yes, it's pretty normal. Some people need more time, that's it. Try to do it on grass but without rolling, practice 5 min. each time you go out, ideally at the beginning of your session because this may demand quite a bit of energy (depending on age). Practicing on grass will make you gain confidence. Once you feel comfortable enough you go to the tarmac and do the same but again without rolling. Finally one day when you are not scared anymore you try it rolling. That's how you should learn, progressively. And don't need to start with a jump, just a hop.
@@SkatefreshVideos Thank you very much. I will try this technique.❤️
You sound like my art teacher 😮
hi asha
can you set up lesson to skate backwards for beginners
+Issa Nejirvan I will add that to the list. Basically turn your toes in and march up ad down then cruise with both skates parallel, thats the basic drill when you FIRST start. Good luck! Come to my website skatefresh.com and sign up for even more free tips and access.
What park are you at
Hi. This is Sergio from Team Skatefresh. She said it in the video: Villa-Lobos Park, São Paulo, Brazil.
Did the windmill of death yesterday... I’m not dead but pretty hurt 😂😂😂
Ola,
Boa noite Asha, tudo bem? espero que sim
Estou com saudades dos seus videos em português.
Desde já agradeço o retorna
Se ela fizer os vídeos em Inglês ela pode alcançar um público muito maior. É o que eu faria!
Esses videos novos e grandes nao podia gravar em 3 línguas, demora muito tempo, então as legendas deixe tudo posivel. Melhor com legendas do que sem video acho.... Os curtos de normal, vou continuar fazer nas 3 línguas, mas também demora porque agora estou no verão europeo e tenho muito trabalho nesses meses..... vou tentar
Voce e membro de minha comunidade online?
Se estiver vai receber mais recursos gratuitos de mim (comencando com varios videos hoje) e também ser notificado quando os videos e artigos novos lançam.
See you there!

How did it go? Feel more secure?
If you want to be taught several other jumping combinations and methods there's a jumps lesson included within the 'How to Skate Advanced' online course. Check out the other content skills. You can also test drive one lesson from that course to see the format.

"Your friend lying on the ground"...😄😄😄
Your trusting friend ahahah
When I land, is it preferably to land in ready position or with a slight scissor? Once I learn this, I will try to jump over some of my friends. LOL
Hi. This is Sergio from Team Skatefresh. A slight scissor is ok.

I did the windmill of death even when not jumping. Lol
Bless you. Yes our weight can go into our heels any time we shift our butts back or straighten our knees (or both). But noticing the cartwheel of death is important as you can then reach forwards and stop it! Otherwise it's backwards fall and that's always risky.
You jumping and skating how i
I should have watched this before the attempt. 😅
Better late than never.... Now you know.
And land with staggered feet which you're doing but didn't say out loud during your tutorial part.
Yes a slight scissor position is good but not too long.
nice player skate in Gaza
Well, it's also a snow angel of broken elbows.
well anywhere has better skate venues than cornwall haha
5 years and people still fall doing "windmill". Yeah yeah, that's me
YOU DID NOT WEAR THE ELBOW THING
No I've never worn elbow pads as they give me a rash on my skin.
See how many times she say's....Ok 🤣
My "OK"s and "Yeah"s are out of control. Shows I'm not a natural on-camera person. But still practicing....
Oh Darling I'm sorry ......only poking 😘
I love your videos....really helped me.
I'm 2 weeks in now just got my concrete grip wheels and sorted out the proper camber,
I'm spinning and going backwards ,
Thanks to you 😍
P.s I'm 50 in December.....last time I had skates on was over 40 years ago 🤣😂🤣🙄
And this is my dads account
*"I really like falling on the back of my head or my ass"* Wow, Asha, you do like swearing!
?
fruit full
Hi! Where do you get your thighs?? Thanks
Hi. This is Sergio from Team Skatefresh. You can find them here www.k-deer.com/
Yeah going over backwards is the worst. Did it twice before realizing proper weight and stance. Stay low
Ouch, hope you didn't hurt yourself. Many people 'stay low' but still have their weight on the heels and still fall back so it's often a more subtle distinction. How's it going with your new online course? Let me know what you think of www.InlineSkateCourse.com
Yeah I guess I should say stay low and torwards the toes. I still find myself going on the heels when I'm cruising in scissors. It's tough. Been doing lots of squats and lunges trying to build the muscles in my legs. My weight and stance builds with every session. It's a beautiful process.
For anyone reading this try Asha's inline skate courses. They are so thorough and in depth and go way beyond any youtube video. They are worth every penny if you wanna learn to skate easily with the correct techniques and progress very quickly.
