1 Week Roller Skating - 7 Day Roller Skate Progression 

Were you wearing hand pad things?

where did you get these skates

@@Fatimaali-rf6fh impala is a good brand

@@christinaeoff5230 thanks 😊

@@Fatimaali-rf6fh mhm oc and if you want theres planet roller skate

Try a tennis court if they're open! The surface is so nice to skate and not many people use them during the week.

@@MsWarriorsfan1 Funny enough I just found a park with nice empty tennis courts!

Theres a nice empty lot a block away from my house. Definitely not private but I don’t have to worry about the peering eyes of the park kids lol. The surface is relatively smooth, as well. I just use any uneven surface for practicing how to prevent falling.

LA wow im jealous there is no were to skate were i live i live on a tropical island

Disa Dandelion me too!

I think she used to skate before probably was years ago now she's getting back into it

Dedication

Yea I don’t believe it and lying to lame

She could of also skii'd before, I just got skates and I am learning about as fast as she is - alot of things can carry over when learning a new skill (honestly people just learn at different rates and thats ok!)

I learned how to skate in 1 whole week

Same

And my roads are so bumpy full with rocks and cars come through too often not really safe lol

@@user-ul1lp5lk3x same the roads are too bumpy i can’t even skate

Well im glad that my roads are straight and safe

same

I'm telling you 😂

@@zoejoyblack and ur outsides matg ur sjates aaaah I'm so jelly!!

Hello

Really tho!!🤣 roller skating is superior transportation for me

YESS FR

it looks like a rave 🥰

@betsy She gets notifs for every like and comment.... she can't get to all of them, don't antagonize her 😐

Aww! You have no idea what that means to me! Thank you for being here!❤️❤️❤️❤️

Yes! I literally searched "roller-skating lessons black" bcs I just needed to see someone that looked like me. I'm so glad I found this video

Same and we live on a really steep hill so if you try to go down your gonna face plant the road 😭

@@hannahexe868 ouch😰

Yaaay! That’s amazing! You’re gonna have soo much fun! That’s a really great idea to replace the wheels, decent skates can be upgraded perfectly with good wheels ♥️

@@zoejoyblack I know! I did a lot of research (like you lol) and since I want to skate outdoors I can just buy outdoor wheels. Thanks so much! Keep up with great content. It's great to now go on this journey with you

What skates and wheels did you get?

@@olive5777 idk if this is where she got her skates but check this place out www.moxiskates.com/

Hi! I know you didn't ask, but

@@alexajones4662 LOLL i was commenting to encourage people im not hatin on anyone idk what ur comment is for

It took 1 month just to be able to stand in my skates and not fall!!! 7 days?? That seems crazy

@@wunmix5999 girl same, im a few months on and still no backwards. i barely just learned crossovers LMAO

@@wunmix5999 u think it’s cause most people have good leg muscles so they would learn faster on skates

Cause most people are scared to skate so like listening to music helps too

this lol. when i first started figure skating i would go with friends and I picked it up so quickly. we would spend the entire time just talking and cracking jokes. then when school started again and I started going by myself, I felt like I was thinking way too much about my every move and kept tripping. small distractions help so much!

she did say the hula hoop helped-for just one weel hula hooping WHILST roller skating is very impressive.

Hey, I saw the comment and intended to reply, then clicked on your channel and watched "Learning to draw is frustrating" video. :) Back to reply. You have the understanding of what it takes to learn a new skill and that's important. Zoey's progress is great, but keep in mind that it's all individual to how fast each of us is going to progress. I've seen people who pick it up in a mater of days and on the other side some who needed much longer to be comfortable on skates. Meaning go at your own pace but have some consistency in how often you practice and know your limits. Especially at the beginning, use protection as even scrapes from asphalt can put you off skates for a while not to mention sprains and that's one of the reasons why people give up before even starting. Your body will also take a while to get in shape and learn to use the new muscles. Focus on going forward/turning/stopping first as going backwards for a beginner can be sketchy and very dangerous. Once you learn the basics put down some mileage under those wheels, that's how you get confidence and feel the pleasure of skating. Once you get good enough and it becomes muscle memory it's a pure feeling of joy to be on wheels. Check "Slomo rollerblader" on new new your times channel for inspiration. :) Go out, have fun and practice, practice, practice. :p

@@PeckoBre Thank you so much for this response! It honestly is just what I needed! Skating is terrifying right now, but just seeing how freeing it looks once you get the hang of it is enough to keep the dream alive haha. Thanks for the advice! I literally screenshoted this, and will revisit it whenever I'm feeling discouraged 🥰

That sounds sooo cool, I’d love to skate somewhere like that!

Wishing you lots and lots of luck!!! ♥️♥️♥️

❤️❤️❤️😊

Haha I wish the closest thing to that are groin pads

Haha! I have seen butt pads, here’s a link m.lightinthebox.com/p/figure-skating-footed-tights-men-s-women-s-ice-skating-pants-trousers-sky-blue-peach-black-spandex-high-elasticity-practise-skating-wear_p6517948.html?currency=USD&litb_from=paid_adwords_shopping&sku=1_45%7C2_289&country_code=us&adword_mt=&adword_ct=461488093626&adword_kw=&adword_pos=&adword_pl=&adword_net=u&adword_tar=&adw_src_id=2907233386_11028445854_108454426695_pla-528896766380&gclid=CjwKCAjw_sn8BRBrEiwAnUGJDoPYq3ACbLk9VMGZoaCQ34MmjtYTtSV_HEXsJxvSuuFVErRQ2LdfSxoCEFkQAvD_BwE SEXY 🤣

@@zoejoyblack Nice concept, it just looks so bulky 😖

Lolllll I’m sorry but this was funny

actually, butt pads exist. though I recommend wearing baggy pants with them because they will make you look weird

🥰🥰🥰

That’s awesome!! Its natural to feel a little wobbly but you’ll do great! 😉

😂 sameeee

@@KunoichiL3e *high five* 😂

It’s my day 1 and I was so scared and kept falling when I got out of the carpet but then I became so good and now I’m like her day 3 when it’s my first day

i need an update on whether you’ve been able to progress since then bc that’s me rn 😭

Same oml

Omds girl, same! Lolll

Try doing bubbles it helps alot and when you've mastered it you can go back words like nothing and do it normally marching with toes pointing in I watched tutorials to learn it hasn't been long since i actually learned how

@@yaneliguillen1511 i've gotten pretty good at going backwards in the month since this comment and i can do 180 jumps and transitions now too :) I appreciate it tho

@@claudiat1948 how good are you now?!

hyde park-serpentine road,kensington garden-the broad walk.regents road or battersea park in london are good

@@optimisticrealismx5829 its always busy thats what I'm worried about haha

@@whosnatchedmyweave6213 true lol

Thank you, so sweet. You have to have at or least one pair of knee socks ☺️ the top is from my boutique ❤️

Thank you! Documenting the process is so worth it. When you feel like you aren’t making any progress, you can look back and see your growth. I’ll definitely check in to see your growth 💛🙏🏾

@@zoejoyblack Yes, you're so right! My skates came today, yay! Really hoping to see progression like yours but will be happy with whatever I can do I'm sure! 🙌🏻 and awww that would be lovely thank you so much, Zoe! 💖

Thank you 💛💕💕

Coool! 😊 I love ice skating, I’d imagine the move would be harder on ice skates. Learning it came with a sore bum but I can do it sometimes and other times I fall right down to the ground 😂
