I've watched several of your videos and nobody breaks it down like you do. I have been skating without blocks while I save up for a pair and I almost never see anyone do tricks without them, let alone give a comparison of the difference. Also, your control is insane!
Thank you so much! Yes there is a lot you can do without blocks.
Where can I get blocks in Australia
Thank you for showing the side by side comparisons and the close-ups of the skate maneuvers! This was very helpful
Thank you for this comparison. I find most of the stall trick videos out there are all taught with skates with slide blocks. This has been so helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Im so glad your videos always pop up when I have a new question
Yay! If you have any questions I haven't covered let me know.
shorty i love you. thank you for compiling a bunch of combos we can do
Thank you! I'm glad you like the video!
Wow the skills behind all these stalls... insane :)
Thank you!
Wow. Just found your channel and two minutes this video the first video I watch if yours I subbed. I got some park stars last year and slowly getting my skills up so I can hit the park next year this channel will be very helpful I think!
Thanks for the sub!
So informative!!!! Thank you 🙏
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you , you’re the best 😊
You’re welcome
Thank you very much, this video is amazing! I didn't know if I could do these tricks without a slide block. Now I know the answer and how to do them. I'm very motivated and happy that I don't have to spend money to do these tricks now!
I'm glad it was helpful.
that backside 180 box stall was soooo cool! ive never seen anyone do that before, ill have to try!
Yeah it was fun! I wasn't sure about the name but it seemed appropriate.
Awesome! I thought I just couldn't do things with the coping since I don't have blocks!
You can do a lot on the coping it's just a different feeling!
This is super helpful!
I don't have slide blocks as I skate on my derby skates and don't have another option so it's really interesting to see the comparison
Happy to help!
THIS WAS SO HELPFUL THANK YOU!
I'm so glad!
Thanks for all the good tips !
You're welcome and thank you for the coffee!
Such a great comparison! Thank you for the detail!
Glad you enjoyed it!
super informative and thorough..thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
this is so helpful! thanks
Glad it was helpful!
This is the best video I have found explaining this, thank you so much💜🛼
Thank you!
Oh my gosh! This is so helpful ! I’ve been really struggling to understand the motion and posture of stalling without blocks and all the comparison videos are so helpful!
I really like how you show side view of the body position of a stall with and without blocks! I was think I was aiming to copy people with blocks and I didn’t know how I was supposed to get that far vertical! Now I know I need to push my hips forwards, but I’ll still be at more of an angle than those with blocks.
Im struggling to come off the coping after a forwards stall. It’s really hard to lift my feet to roll off the coping. I end up stepping off and then I’ll be on my toestop on the back wheel! I do have big 64mm wheels, and the shape is different from most park wheels I see. It has a right angled edge rather than a rounded one edges. Do you think the size is making it harder? Or should it still be doable? I get scared in the moment, whenever I’m on the coping. It feels like if I lift my wheels up that much Im just gonna fall backwards off the ramp onto my back!
Having larger wheels will make it a little harder as you will have to lift your front wheels more than if you were skating on skate park wheels which are around 58mm. But I think it should be doable.
An option could be to see if someone is able to skate beside you to hold your hand/ arm to help you balance and not fall back? Or you can attempt it on a small ramp with a gradual transition?
@@ShortysSkateSeries Thank you!!! I just bought some park wheels because I think they're needed in the long run, anyways! Thanks for all your no block trick ideas! I have so many goals to work towards once I get the hang of regular plate stalls! ^^
Oh, and can you stall and go over spines without blocks too?
I’ve never tried but I think it would have to be more roll/ step onto the front coping with your leading foot, step over the front coping and into the back coping with your back foot, so you can drop back in with your leading foot.
So detailed and clear! Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Hey Shorty, could you do an advanced stalls/grinds on ramps/ledges compilation video? For box, acid, mizou etc. with the names and the foot placements and maybe showing them like backside too? I'm trying to learn grinds with different foot placements but I don't know what to call them and it makes it hard for me to differentiate them 😅I could find a bit on inline grinds but not much at all for quads! Thanks!
Hi. I plan on making a video with my friend maybe later this month or early next with a lot of grind in slow-mo and trick names. I also forget grind names so a goal of mine is to make a tricktionary for quads.
@@ShortysSkateSeries sounds incredible already, can't wait!!
Awesome
Thank you!
you are so damn good , i learn a lot
Thank you!
Good job 👏
Thank you!
👍🏾🙏🏾
🙂
Hey shorty, do you have any tips for transitioning from no blocks to stalling with slide blocks? I currently added slide blocks to my skates and I’m having a difficult time adjusting.
I think take it slow. It's a totally different feeling so you just have to build up your muscle memory. Remember it's more a pivot motion now. Feel free to DM me on Instagram @shortstop.6 with some video and I can see if I have some specific tips
thanks so much for this shorty! do you have tips on fakie stalling/backside 180s/full cabs without blocks? i find it pretty scary because it feels like my body has to be leaning forward into the ramp quite a bit…
Start with getting used to the hooking feeling and the angle of your body with fakie stalls (remember to lift your heels as you hook on). This will be the end position (body and foot angle) for when landing your backside 180 and full cabs, so muscle memory will help with getting over the fear.
Amazing video! Could you do the same but for vert ramps?
You mean show the difference of blocks vs no blocks on a vert ramp? I don't think I would skate a vert ramp without blocks. 😅
@@ShortysSkateSeries exactly that 😂 I was trying to find out if I could vert without blocks, but if you can't do it I sure as hell can't hahaha
I’m sure skaters can drop in on vert without blocks but it’s too scary for me.
As an inline skater coming over to quads I find it so hard to skate without a block
Yes it would be. Having a slide block is similar feeling to a H block
Yay very useful! Which wheels are you using in this video?
Thanks
Those are Bont Park Flow wheels
Yes they are the Bont Park Flow 99a Wheels.

Yah!!
😀
Can such block fit to any rollerskate?
Roller skate plates have different degree of kingpins. eg the Bont Tracer/ Prodigy plate is 20 deg. So slide blocks are made to fit the degree of kingpin so some may not fit on different degree. However, most metal bars can be bent/ modify to fit if you have the tools or hand strength.
So which would you rather ... some or none
I prefer using slide blocks as I really like to sliding tricks.

Block party
Which slide blocks would you recommend for Bont Parkstar tracer?
In my videos I use the Bont prototype slide block that will be release soon (I hope). But I know the other skaters on the Bont Parkstar team use Discoblox, CIB and Wildbones.
When beginning to get good at stalls is it easier to use blocks or no blocks to get over the coping?
If you are looking to hold a stall on top of the deck then it's probably easier to practice stalling with blocks from the get go.
would yiu say stalls are harder with or without blocks?
Because I've done them for so long it's hard for me to remember (plus I have a bad memory) but I think without blocks give a solid lock on feeling so they could be the easier.. 🤷♀️
@@ShortysSkateSeries ok thanks i just got blocks for chirstmas so exited to use them
i wanted to get the bont ones but they sadly didn't fit my skate
Hey i love your videos :) quick question though, what skates would you recommend for the skatepark? I know the Bont skates are good but are there any others with a heel that are also good?
It depends on foot shape and personal preference. I haven't tried other brands so I can't really comment but I have seen skaters in Moxi and Chaya.
I love the support and athletic look of the Parkstars. So if you have any questions on them let me know.
@@ShortysSkateSeries I know this was like two months ago but i ended up getting bonts and i love them, best skates ever, love your videos theyre very helpful :)
Are those bont slide blocks available for purchase?
Not yet, but soon. These are prototypes.
@@ShortysSkateSeries great news, I WANT THEM TOO!
Woooo great all the same on this 687th Holy Apocalyptic day . Amen.
Peace
Have a nice day!
