- Welcome to my beginner to confident video. Here you will see a montage of footage showing my skating from when I was an absolute beginner to two years later when I have become a far more confident inline skater.
I hope this video will show anybody learning inline skating that with practice and persistence you can improve as a skater.
I still have many more things to learn but my journey so far has been a lot of fun and very rewarding.
Get out there and get skating! - Sport

I have been doing freestyle for 2 years now and met some of my favorite people and now I'm transitioning into street skating
I hope you enjoy street skating. It's my favourite thing to do on skates.
I'm 24 and just got my first pair of inline skates and I'm surprised at how easy they are to balance compares to quad skates! Only thing is, I've been sticking to my apartment's basement this whole time and I'm kind of socially awkward even still at this age haha...I really want to meet new people this way, but most of the skate parks near me are mostly skateboarders and kids with blades on weekends. Any advice you might have would be helpful!
Fine You are my hero I just start (couple months ago) I am 53 years and very inspired me to not give up ... I have a big problems with knee but I learn crying for pain and I am sick when I can not roll when is raining . I roll every day usually 2 times .. cheers
Don't give up. Keep going. Skating is such a great sport to do at any age. I'm so glad you like skating. Sorry about the pain in your knee.
good on ya buddy , i have to take it slow these days andits a shame , but at least your still rolling
Awesome buddy! good work. it's exciting and addictive to start a new journey learning something, i know. i just started skating myself 34yrs old.
i hope to skate to work starting this spring, i'm in the UK too.
i'm a bit worried about falling due to some twigs or branchs on my route though. it's a good pedestrian path that follows a river for 3 miles but has lots of trees near by.

That's awesome you have started skating. Like you say it's great to have something new to learn!
Twigs are an accupational hazard! Just take it steady and keep your eyes peeled. Good luck with all your skating.
@@whittyskater8854 thanks for the reply bruv! :D subbed!
Your skating was already looking decent just a couple months in but woah the progress is awesome! Thank you for taking us through that 2 year journey. Very inspiring stuff. Had I not just got back from a session this video would have gotten me out there.
Thanks very much for your nice comments. Much appreciated. Your channel inspires me to get out there so we must be doing something right!
What.. Stair bashing after 7 months also? What.. I've been skating for little over a year and I'm very scared to do many of these things.. Looks like you got 0 fear man haha
I've got fear! But I try to build up to things slowly. I've still hurt myself plenty though! But just get back up and have another go.
definetely !
Now in CZcams, there is a trend that everybody like to say they achieving some level in a very short time, it’s possible, they just didn’t tell you how often and how long they devote on this.
Dude what.. That is the most insane progression I've ever seen.. You were doing backwards on 2 months in.. And 360 after 7 months!?!?!? WHAT! Thets dope dude! Inlining takes me so long I feel haha.. GOna keep at it though!
Thanks for watching buddy! Good luck with your skating. You'll soon be doing all the things I did. Just a bit of practice.
I think it’s also about practicing “smart” instead of just practicing hard! I learned how to ski backwards after maybe less than 7 days on the mountain, just because I was focusing on learning it and looking up tutorials and stuff!
Ive been skating for two months...almost daily...and today i have my first fall. It was frustrating, it makes me angry and yes...it hurts. And it hppens just when i was feeling more confident with the strides and the downhill part....the dificult part of it is to accept the fall...to accept the pain...
I like your videos. Thanks for sharing your experience. Greetings from México
Unfortunately falling over is part of learning to skate. I hope you are ok. Just keep practicing again and your confidence will start to come back. Don't give up! All the best with your skating.
Thank you for watching my videos!
You know how many times I have fallen and will I stop hell to the no I’ll keep going falling is a part of skating don’t gave up on me you got this
I fall countless
In six months I have fallen more than the numbers of years since Jesus came to earth 😂. My wrist is is pain most of the time. I feel like I’m enjoying the falls
You wanna tell me that in your first 2 months of skating you haven't fallen at all? Jesus how?
this is a great motivational video. started skating 5 days ago. hopefuly i can work hard enough to match your progress. i have subbed. thanks, need to support UK skaters.
Wow. That's great you have just started. Good luck. I know you will enjoy it. If you have any questions feel free to ask. Thanks for the sub. Much appreciated.
Hows it going? :)
Have you matched his two years?
After 2 years, how it going ?
@@mramcreative Its pretty good. Weather has been so bad the last 6 months that i have hardly been out. I got some aggressive skates that i am still waiting to use for the first time.
Thanks for asking.
All the best.
thanks for tracking your journey. super inspiring to see someone commit to a long term approach and really enjoy the activity. i rollerbladed as a kid (when the movie brink came out and a lot of kids my age were blading 😄) and am now 32 and want to pick it up again to meet my commuting needs. i’m excited about taking the time to learn and enjoyjng the ride now after watching some videos. thanks again for sharing
Great progression! I started skating since mid-January; so about 4-5 months of skating now. Everyone tells me I'm excelling for my short time, but I always feel like I could be doing better. My backwards crossovers are quite fast and I can do some nifty tricks. I guess I should start uploading videos to show my progress, huh?
Anyways, thanks for sharing! I may have to start doing the same as well. Cheers!
Thank you! That's great you are progressing so quickly. You must have natural ability for skating which is awesome.
For sure upload some vids. The more inline skating on CZcams the better.
Good luck with your skating!
Same for me, 4-5 months in, ppl r like woah yur a boss. And I'm like um nooooooo I'm still a beginner, or I feel like I am. I want to learn more and practice everyday but I also don't have the money to replace worn down wheels right now so I skate every other day or every 2 days so they last a bit longer b4 I have to start rotating them.
Dude you got this! Been skating since I was 9, I am 33 in November this year. It’s the best sport on earth! Keep rolling brother and much respect from Northern California
Cheers buddy.
I started rollerblading 5 days ago and I’m just learning how to brake. I’ve been practicing everyday so I hope I can keep my motivation to keep practicing and keep going like you.
Awesome to hear you have just started. Good luck.
The over-confident part was awesome!!! Lol..... No matter how long it passes one fighting gravity will always be attracted to the ground....
Absolutely, gravity will always win! Thanks for watching.
Very inspirational video! Thanks for posting it.
Great video, man!
I like seeing the chronological progression and you also gave the best piece of advice which is to simply get out and have fun with it.
Once you've figured out the absolute basics then the rest follows as skating is surprisingly intuitive.
Cheers dude. Totally agree that once you get the basics down new stuff starts to come quite naturally.
i only know how to move around, very confortably. I’ve never learned tricks but i would absolutely love it
I started skating like 4 weeks ago, and I’m in love with it, Im fortunate that a new skating place has opened up near where I live (I live in a small town and the original one closed) so I can go skating there on the weekends.
Glad to hear you are enjoying it so much.
You're an inspiration! I've been doing it for a bout two years and I haven't gotten to the stage where you're at. Looking forward to your next progression.
Thank you very much. It's very kind of you to say I'm an inspiration. Thanks for watching. Happy skating!
Thank you for the video! 3 years later of this video and it has inspired me! Thank you so much!!
That's a very impressive progression. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work!
Thank you!
Love this! Thanks for posting! I just recently started inline skating one week ago, after at least 15 years of not skating. It's really cool to see your progression and how far you've come after just two years!
Thanks for watching! Good luck skating again.
this was so awesome to see! I started about 2-3 years ago but haven't focused on improving all that much. seeing your progression is really inspirational and makes me wanna get better!
Keep enjoying your skating!
Nice progress and cool to be able to see it in your video! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
You’re doing great! Thanks for the inspiration. I’m a beginner. I need this motivation. 👍☮️
No worries. Just keep going!
Great job! This video was very inspiring and fun to watch, thank you for sharing it
Thank you for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed it. 👍
Very cool! Inspirational.....🇧🇷👏👏👏
This is awesome! I needed this kind of motivation
I hope to get my skates within a week. Im a begginer so thank you for motivating me and i pray that one day i become as good as you.Thank You!
That's very exciting you are getting your first skates soon. Good luck! I'm sure you will love it. Thank you for watching my video!
So cool I inspired to learn inline skating every time I watch your videos.
That's awesome, thankyou. 🙏
this was really inspiring! thank you so much :)
You were so comfortable at 2 months already
Thanks for sharing your progression, that's really stimulating !
I bought my own pair a month ago and I roll as often as often as possible; btw I'm sixteen and I hope I'll do my own video like this one day, to encourage people to skate like you did :D
Cheers from France x)
Bonjour! Thank you for watching. That's great you have bought some skates. I'm sure you will love it. We need more people to post videos as it helps spread the word about inline skating, so yes go for it someday!
Great progress! You’ve got a great bunch of vids on here. Great inspiration...keep them coming!
Thanks alot. Cheers for watching. More videos are on the way.
Thank you so much for your tutorials; I’m forty and just starting out now!
Glad they can help.
Ive been skating for 2 months and i feel like im making the same progress as you so this video gave me some excitement for whats to come! You rock
Glad you are enjoying it
Great improvement, congrats!
Amazing progress! I still can even STAND UP in my inliners! 🤣
Good video man! Really love skating aswell and for me its always been really easy cause ive been playing hockey for so many years. Its definitely not the same as skating on ice but still kinda same so it helps me a lot
Awesome dude . It's really cool to see your progression. Keep at it my dude
Thanks alot. I certainly will keep going!
Very inspiring, thanks for sharing! Currently 3 months in and can barely do what you could at the month mark, but definitely seeing progress. Thanks again
Keep going! Have fun
Wow! That is a lot of progress in just 2 years. I'm inspired.
Thank you. I'm really happy it inspired you!
I finally bought some blades a few years ago because I always wanted to blade through the city. The number 1 tip I learned from all the CZcams people I took tips from is keeping the knees bent.. Once it became natural without thinking it made my experience and learning soo much better and faster
i been skating for almost 4 years and its I seen many people give up trying to learn skating, but its good to see someone for once actually putting effort into skating and trying to become the best that they can be. Great job!
Btw I only ever skate in a skating rink lol so I don't really mess with the outdoors lol
Thanks for watching. It's a shame some people give up so soon but it's great to hear you have been skating four years!
Thanks for your video, very inspiring. Today was my first day in-line skating.
Have fun with it.
Thanks this is very inspirational!
Thank you
Woow so inspiring
congratulations.... amazing...👏
I purchased my first pair of skates just two days ago. Your two-month progress is aspirational for me in my current stage of learning.
Thanks for this video - was very motivational.
Good luck skating. Go for it!
Amazing your progress, your improvement in only 2 years! Unbelievable, but true.
Thank you
Great video, thank you vey much. I'm a beginner, I skate for 3 month and I skate almost every day, when it is not raining! Your videos are very helpful, and they really inspire me, thank you for that!
Thank you for watching. Good luck with your skating.
Wow! You give me courage to try this! Thank you 😀
Go for it!
you are amazing!!! i just started skating for the first time since i was a kid... it's been about a month and a half, and even though i'm nowhere near where i *want* to be, i can glide, turn, and (sort of) stop pretty comfortably... i can even do that serpentine-crossover-looking move (whatever it's called). stoked to be on stakes and keep improving!
Sounds like you are doing really well. Have fun!
You've learned fast bro, nice one!
Cool. Thank one for sharing.
Thanks for watching
Very nice, I am heading out tonight to the sea front for a little skate. I injured myself in the gym so I have no been able to skate for the last two months which isnt ideal as I have just started to learn how to skate but I am going to take it easy, get my balance, practise some stops and turns, enjoy it and have some fun!
Hope the session went well. It's always crappy getting injured. It's frustrating not being able to do what you want. Glad you are able to get back out there though now.
Fantastic progress. Well done
Thank you
@@whittyskater8854 which skates do you use?
Very noticeable improvement. I'm progressing slower because I keep getting minor injuries that take time to heal. Oh well, that's life, but I keep at it. Thanks for posting.
Well done brother I found two pairs of inline skates and at nearly 39 years of age im gonna start to practice for some reason I always liked the look of skating since I watch an old film years a go it seems so much fun
Go for it buddy!
@@whittyskater8854 thank you it seems more fun than BMX and skate boarding it's like a dopamine heaven flying without wings Lolo see you around brother
Great talent. I am 2 years in and not even close in skills, however I am sure that I enjoy it at equal level!
Thank you. As long as you are enjoying it and having fun it doesn't matter what level you are at. Happy skating!
Well you’ve learned more than I have in 3 years haha. Nice job :)
Holy.. I've only just begun learning to skate, but I cannot wait to get this good!
You soon will. Enjoy!
Thanks for this video dude....i have quit figure skate cuz an accident and nowdays i try roller blade, tbh i find it pretty hard since i last time see ice 1 years ago lol, even tho i'm a figure skater for 5 years, i need literally 3 days to get used to it lol, this video literally made me want to feel the freedom again...even when i can't move that free, i still want to try and keep doin' it, thanks dude🥰
Nice! You got those transitions down pretty quick! I'm not even there yet.. And is that a backwards crossover I saw? Awesome progress.
I've not been inline skating two years yet but if I make the same progress I'll be happy enough
Cheers Johro. I think they count as backward crossovers! Watching your vids your own progress seems really good to me.
Johro - you're doing good too. Nice stair rolls! Where are you based?
Simon Evans I'm in Co Wexford, Ireland. I live in the sticks, gotta travel to find some decent skating surfaces! Roads around here are awful..
In the latter part of your video, are you doing those spins/turns on flat or rockered setup?
Flat setup but as my wheels wear i try to set them up to provide a bit of a natural rocker if i can as it helps turns.
4:19 - nice jump! Thanks for the video
I’ve just started skating and if I ever get to where you were at 2 months I’ll be so chuffed!
Welcome to skating
Back to this video again. And it won't be my last time watching it, since it is for me an inspiration even though I know for sure I will never skate the way you do. But I still enjoy being able to skate the way I do, which is the important thing.
Absolutely. It's all about enjoying what you can do!
Very inspirational video, thanks for posting. I’m gonna go slap on my blades and get to practicing ⛸👍🏾
Thanks for watching!
I'm only a year in so I have some time but you are highly impressive.
I'm about to head out to my skate park to learn some things if I can
Thank you. Hope you had a good session at the skatepark!
Amazing progress! This is just the motivation I need. Sadly, the only surfaces my FR1s have tasted since I got them is the carpet and floorboard lol.
Hopefully you can get out on them soon!
just revisited this video now 5 weeks in my skating life. saw this video in a totally different light to before. i know what you are doing now, what to aim for. been working on crossovers and powerstop this week. still afraid to try backwards though let alone backwards crossovers. weather permitting that will be next week (maybe) all the best.
Sounds to me like you are making great progress. The more you practice the more confidence you will gain. I'm sure you will be awesome at backwards. Good luck!
So how good are you on skates now? How has it gone so far?
Update
@@supervlogs3352 Just recovering from Covid. Need to get out and skating. starting to move into aggressive too now.
@@klisher perfect man hope you continue
I am about three days in and I am STRUGGLING! Foot pain on my arch is the culprit for me having to stop after heading once around my block. Balance is a problem too. I’m trying to maintain some consistency and also have signed up for a 8 week gym training session to hopefully expedite my progress. YOUR VIDS ARE INSPIRATION BUD! Thank you.
Keep going! Some foot pain is pretty normal when you start out. It takes a while for the feet to adjust. Balance will also soon improve. Just kerp practicing but allow time to rest the body until it gets used to skating. Good luck!
WHITTYskater Thanks for the encouragement!!
i have started skating by yesterday. I Bought freestyle skates. damn its rly hard at the first time. Have already learned how to move forward but have no idea how to stop. For now grass and walls are best for stopping :D who thought skating be so fun, and so hard. probably need pracise allooooottt... btw good video. i hope make a good progress like you do.
Hello and welcome to skating. You will have so much fun! Skating can be a bit difficult to start with but once you learn some of the basics you will be just fine. I have done a stopping tutorial so please check that out if you want.
super cool
your voice kinda soothing. like it
I used to skate back in my teen years honestly i was a pro at i was all into aggressive skating. Its been 15 years last time i skated snd now i feel motivated going back to skating. I hope i still have at least some of the skating techniques or else i have to start from zero.
I'm sure you will be fine getting back in to skating. You will still have muscle memory. You'll be flying around in no time! Best of luck with it!
@@whittyskater8854 Well, I have not been skating for about 15 years too, when I tried skating again, man I can tell you, I was just slightly better than a beginner, the balancing part is difficult, but since the skill is there already, you just need to relearn the balancing part, especially when you change to a low friction skate.
Once you've got your balance back things will be alot better. Welcome back!
What an inspiration lol thanks
Thank you
Thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching
Everyone is way more ambitious than I am lol I am hoping by around 7-8 months being able to just skate backwards maybe if I can make it seamless looking I would be positively glowing! I'm not big on jumps or anything else just want to be able to look like I'm gliding lol I just got my skates and did day one and I'm starting at ground zero, I'm working on balancing on one skate with one shoe right now and switching legs after I get the hang of it, I plan to do left leg, then right leg and keep switching till I'm confident on the carpet enough where I can then transition outside but it will be awhile! Your progress is amazing! It was cool to see the stops! I have no idea how to even change direction I tried it and well it wasn't good my foot just went every direction despite my foot fitting pretty well and I do need insoles but it will get there :D
Yeah you should be happy with that level of progression mate, good job. I actually used to skate aggressive inline for like a decade throughout the 90s and it’s good to see it coming back, there’s a joy you get whilst skating that’s hard to convey until you try it yourself. Nice to see others experience it.
Quick question, do you mind if I ask where that skate park was, looks dope.
Cirencester
Very nice video.
Thank you for watching!
Cool video. My brother and I are getting back into it after 20 years.. we've been at it for 3 months now!! I'll try to send you a video
Welcome back to skating buddy!
I used to skate when I was a teenager but I never had someone show me anything really.. Now I'm trying to get back to it, I've only managed to do some curbs and hadn't even imagined half of the things you show! Really inspiring :)
Good luck getting back into it. Thanks for watching.
Im turning 40 this March..Just started to rolled the skates😅😅..Thank you for sharing this video..Peace✌😘
That's great that you just started. Good luck. I hope you have fun! If you have any questions please just ask. 👍
daexcutioners um yeah,maybe dont use that much emojis...
That's neat, I used to skate that when I was younger, about fifteen years ago probably. I just picked it back up the other week. Movement is pretty confident forward and turning is okay. Just starting to learn how to go backwards now oh, still don't really have any stops down except for gently slowing down
Welcome back to skating!
TY for this video! Im 43 yo .I practice a lot of sports in my life - from waterpolo and swimming ,cycling , football ,volleyball kite surfing ,diving etc .For the last 10 years i dont do any exercise .I just bye pair of playlife bronxII ,but for the week i own them i start to doubt myself .I fairly out of shape ,and im not sure i'l be able to hold a balance , maybe if i fall will be to hard (i'm about 103 kg atm ) I was starting to thing i make a mistake for choosing rolerblades .But after watching this i thing i will give it a try this weekend .Wish me luck ! :) Greetings from Bulgaria !
Good luck my friend! Have fun!
You've learned pretty quick, I've been skating for around four months now and still can't do transitions.
Just keep practicing, you will get it. There are some great channels on you tube that provide tutorials. Have you heard of skatefresh asha? I watched her vids alot when I was starting out.
WHITTYskater Yes I watched all of her videos, but when I try it doesn't work but I will definitely keep trying
Amazing progress. I staryed 2 days ago and i can do 3/4 of the styles of the 2 month progress cause i am a pro ice skater
should've started recording since day 1 but dope video and certainly a motivation for me!
Thanks for watching
Looking good bro =)
Cheers buddy!
Ur voiceovers r kinda brilliant. 😂 It's like ur commentating on someone u don't know and I love it
Thanks!
I've been watching your videos for inspiration, watching the skaters that have been skating since they were 10 years old is one thing, but it's interesting to see the progression of someone who started later in life ... I bought my skates a year ago, but after months of just being frozen on the carpet in fear I hired a pro skater to help me get going- I'm now a month into lessons and I've just ventured off the high friction surface and practice every night after the kiddos bedtime on the hardwood, going back and forth... did you take lessons, or have someone assist you with the techniques or did you just pick them up yourself... ? Nice skating, looking forward to seeing more.
Hey there. I'm really happy you have found someone to give you lessons and you are now starting to skate and get some confidence. Keep it up! I just taught myself. I watched lots of YT videos and tried to learn from there. I would love to have some proper lessons though. Thanks for watching, more videos on the way.
The most favourite part when im rollerblading is when i can do the whole thing smoothly
I bought a pair of urban freestyle skates, started inline skating on rockered frames first, like 4-5 months ago. I bought a flat frame (PSNext) 4×90s.
Now I can skate cross overs,backwards, transition forward n backwards like a hockey player, and a few criss crosses and jumps. I'm not 100%confident, but getting there.
Awesome to hear
Looks fun man
Thank you
Just started inline skating yesterday. Today was day 2 and this video gives me so much hope that I can do cool stuff like that too!! Did you learn by yourself? Watching others? Or did you have someone instruct you? Thanks for all your vids gonna keep watching and putting into practice as I progress in my inline skating journey :)
Welcome to skating! I taught myself using videos from CZcams.
Inspiring.
Thank you
your 2months progression already too good for me
This is great fella.. I'm 37 and just bought a pair of aggressive skates.. I used to blade all the time and was really good as a nipper.. But now at 37 I'm bambie on ice haha
Have fun getting back into it buddy
I DID SKATE FOR A MONTHS WHEN I WAS 7YRS OLD. AND THEN I STOPPED IT BCAUSE I GOT BORED. AND THEN I AM NOW 17, MY COUSIN BOUGHT ME A ROLLER SKATE. I THOUGHT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE IT ANYMORE. BUT THE MOMENT I STAND UP WHILE WEARING IT, I CAN STILL SKATE😂I DON'T KNOW HOW. WE ALL KNOW THAT ROLLER SKATE IS VERY HARD SO I AM REALLY SURPRISED😆. AND NOW I AM WATCHING SOME AMATUERS IN THE WORLD OF ROLLER SKATING TO LEARN SOME TRICKS AND TO KNOW HOW TO USE IT THE RIGHT WAY. ❤️🙏
Wow! That's awesome! Thanks for showing these turns, jumps and others, now I can learn them 😍😊
But please weare helmet, even if you are advanced, you never know what happened. It can safe your life! 🙏👍
Thanks for watching
Nice gratz
Thanks for watching.
