30 Days of Roller Skating 

Check the description box for links to my gear!

OH MY GOODNESS! How cool was this video?! Beyond inspiring to see this documentation of what dedication can do. Also loved seeing blips of this subculture of roller skating that I had no idea about. I can't wait to join you on the roller rink one day. Keep your elbow, knee, and butt pads for meeee!

I love how everyone that tries roller skating mentions how it brings out their inner child again ☺️

Not me squealing because you mentioned me 🥺 your progress is INCREDIBLE, Sophia!! Would love to skate with you some day 🤍

SOPHIA YOU ARE SO GOOD AT SKATING YOU ARE MY PERMANENT IDOL PLZ TAKE ME WITH YOU

You improved SO FAST 😱😱😱

Sophia is one of those people who chooses a new skill and becomes a pro at it

I wouldn't be surprised if the streets of LA started filling up with girls on skates. You make skating look so approachable and fun!

you've accomplished more in 30 days on skates than I have in my whole life on roller blades. keep up the good work!

I literally paused in the middle of your video and made my sister go to the roller rink with me 😭😭😭. I haven’t gone in so long it was so fun!!!!

Idk how these girls make roller skating look so elegant & graceful! 👀🤣 I remember when I went to the roller skating rink a few years ago, I put those skates on and couldn’t believe how heavy they were! 🤯😭 My ass was falling everywhere 😂

As a former aggressive speed skater, this was too freaking cool to watch. You are bomb.

I turned 50 last December. Haven't roller skated since I was a teenager. Didn't realize how out-of-practice I'd become.... but I'm loving the renewed interest in roller skating in recent years. Got too heavy and out of shape, decided to pick it back up this week. Sophia -- thank you for the inspiration.

You did amazing! All I’m saying is that “no background” in skating can’t be entirely true because no one hops on skates the first day and is able to skate forward, backward, and do tight spins/turns like you did.

Can we just take a second to talk about what an angel Hannah is?? How sweet of her to teach you that little dance routine, her energy totally shines outwards 🌞

Bought skates last year and practiced on them twice... you've inspired me to pick them up again and also reminded me that practice makes perfect!

I’m getting back into skating and literally am obsessed watching other peoples’ journey skating right now and I cannot wait for my skates to get here! Love the way you did the video! *side note - you have literally the best place to practice before going out!

This is was inspiring to watch 🤩🤩🤩 I hope others who see this remembers to never give up and that practice makes progress 🥰🥰🥰

Totally saw you as a skater! You picked it up quick because of your impeccable shuffling ability! ☺️

I LOVE the way you documented. I LOVE the way you had fun. I LOVE the amount of commitment you had. I LOVE everything about this video! Thank you for the inspiration!

First of all, huge kudos to you Sophia! You are truly amazing, and your skating is alread very beautiful in a very short time period! I've been practicing the exact same moves for every single day for 16 months and sadly, I'm still nowhere near to the progress you got in just 30 days. I would just like to acknowledge what a natural you are and you've very lucky roller skating talent has been gifted to you. NGL, this video was essentially heartbreaking because I'm still struggling with all of these fundamentals after tirelessly working on dance skating and rhythm skating daily for over 1 year and my progress has been excruciatingly slow. But, anyone else who's still struggling with basics after 30 days, please don't give up! Skating is an amazing journey that is fun and rewarding, and it's definitely not a linear skill, so don't give up if you're a slow learner like I am. I started my journey extremely out of shape, overweight and I've always been clumsy and uncoordinated. Don't let that be an excuse if you're struggling or not sure if it's right for you. Skating is for everyone!!!! You are amazing just being you and try not to worry about how others are progressing, you can do this💖💖💖

You are so adorable! Thank you for sharing your journey! It was really amazing watching your progress! You are a beautiful skater!! I’m 52 & started skating a few months ago. It has been many decades since I have skated. My youngest daughter(25) decided she was going to get skates some months back. It immediately made me want them too. I have been skating as much as I can every since. I feel like a kid again & doesn’t even feel like exercise! Feels like a good time & I can’t wait to do it again! Thank you for all of you who upload videos! They’ve helped me so much!

I’ve been off of skates for a month due to tearing a ligament and this just made me miss it so much more! I’m so glad you found skating! There’s a sense of freedom and joy it brings me as well as so many other people!

You're such an elegant skater! Love how you documented and shared this process. A+ music choices. xx

So excited you’re sort of the roller skating community! Love seeing your journey and how much it brings you the same feelings I had when I started 🥰🤗🙃🛼

You did amazing!!! I started skating again a few years ago but since quarantine, I started again. More serious about it now and love that it's so much more popular again. But you are doing great!!!

I've finally been practicing on my skates semi-consistently (like every couple of days) and started upgrading my equipment since I know I'm invested now. Your skate instructor's legs were so inspirational, I can feel myself getting stronger and love seeing professional skaters do their thing. This video was great, thank you for sharing your journey.

Ohhhhh!! I enjoyed this video so much! We always see people already mastering something cool... but to see that it takes a lot of effort, dedication and time to do so, is soooo encouraging! Love this type of content! Thanks Sophie 🌱

I’m 61 in may. I haven’t skated since high school and when my kids were young back in my 20s. But I have grandkids now so I picked it up again to bond with them, they love 💕 it. But you can’t be afraid of falling in order to stay with it.

Honestly Sophia, this is so inspiring and I am just in awe of your commitment/dedication to learning. I'm almost speechless! I'm glad you found something you enjoyed. I'm going to commit myself to learning a skill/something in 30 days

Soph, you are GLOWING! So encouraging to see you tune into PLAY ✨✨✨

I really admire how much perseverance you have and am so happy for you that you've grown to love this new hobby.Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I personally love to skate and you've really inspired me to try doing it consistently and learn new maneuvers. Thank you for always inspiring me to grow ❤️❤️❤️

You are awesome!!! Just got my skates and starting my journey! This is so inspiring 💜 thank you so much for sharing!!!!

All of my favorite content creators starting to roller skate has brought me so much joy!! Best thing to come out of lockdown/the pandemic!!

I watched this about a week ago and I’m not sure why I felt the need to come back and talk about how I felt. I watch all of Sophia’s videos, but when I saw the title of this one when it was posted, I instinctively avoided it and didn’t know why. Until I saw it recommended again weeks later and realised that what I felt was jealousy. Probably because the snippets of her roller skating I’ve seen from previous vlogs looked so fun, but I never considered that I could do it because where I live it’s not much of a thing (or so I think?). But after finally watching this video, it hit me that *nothing is stopping me from trying to skate*. Maybe there’s not much of a skating community here, but should that matter? I’m already stuck at home, and have a small but workable space to practice in, _and_ I can afford the equipment. It’s a splurge, no question, but why should I be bitter about something that I can do something about? So anyway, I’m getting my skates today and I could not be more excited :) I felt like sharing this on the off chance someone is actually in the same position as me. Take the leap and just go for it!

This was so inspiring to watch! Thank you for putting together this beautiful documentation of your journey!

This looks so fun!! I loved watching the process, and it really inspires me to pick up a new hobby and practice consistently this way!

The padded shorts is the most genius thing I have ever seen.

This was so fun to watch I love it Sophie! Please continue to inspire all of us to try something new and get out of our comfort zone!

Funny you thought skating would be out of character ! This is the most Sophia sport ever ! So fun and lighthearted while being tough as hell. This video is a testament to your dedication and hardworking nature !! Thank you so much for sharing.

AHHH I LITERALLY STARTED A WEEK AGO, SO THIS ON MY FEED MADE ME SO EXCITED haha our shuffler is now a skater too, youre a natural

I completely enjoyed this video. I love all your videos but man this was so refreshing!!

This video was sooo enjoyable and inspiring to watch.. I think as we grow older we forget to learn and do things just for the sake of having fun with it. After watching this I feel so inspired to just try something new and keep at it. 🛼🥰 thank you Sophie!

Soph this vid was so inspiring!! I totally resonated with never really having a hobby that I've picked up & really ran with and loved, and this totally inspired me to try roller skating for myself!! serious congrats on your progress & commitment to it, can't wait to see more!! 🤍😊

This video was truly refreshing! The joy and dedication in your new hobby rekindled my love for the hobbies I neglected!! Also the scene @19:32 is hilarious. Have a good day!

Does anyone else feel like skating after watching this? 🤩 This is amazing! I love seeing how you just picked up the new hobby and stuck to it, documenting each step of the way. I don't think I would've been able to achieve as much as you did within 30 days hahaha

Your perseverance is so admirable Soph! Keep it up you're doing amazing!! 🤗

You’ve learned and improved so quickly while looking so smooth and elegant! You go girl!

As a child I skated up and down the driveway for hours on end and that used to make me so happy. This video inspired me to buy some skates to honor my inner child. Thank you.

Well Done Sophia! It is amazing that you started a new hobby and clearly you are loving it. I hope that you have recovered fully from your injury. Stay safe and well x 👑💖🎊🎉💐

Loved this video!!! You improved so quickly, practice really does make perfect. Glad you found a new hobby you love!

Bringing me back to MTV MADE days... such nostalgia! I love the commitment and dedication!

I used to rollerblade all of the time, some years back. It was truly one of the happiest times of my life. It's difficult to describe how much joy it brings. Watching your video truly makes me miss it and makes me want to get back into it again. This video was such a joy to watch. Probably my fav. video of yours to date. I can't wait to see more!! xox

This was so fun to watch! I'm learning how to ride a bike this June (I grew up rollerblading) so that I can take advantage of bike riding to/around the beach, and this was really encouraging & inspiring to watch. Keep it up!

love seeing a hobby manifest, its the most inspiring thing ever

This is amazing ! Now I want to start roller skating again. It’s been years but now I feel encouraged. Thank you ☺️

I’ve been wanting to learn for so long but I was worried I’d embarrass myself because skaters always seem so balanced and graceful. You got so good, so quickly and you seem to be having so much fun. You’ve deffo inspired me to be brave, even if I don’t have your coordination. 😅

Omg how inspiring 😭 I can’t wait to try this too

Sophia I LOVE LOVE LOVE this! I’m so excited for you and this is so inspiring to try out something new! Good for you and this looks so fun! 😂😊

Loved this Sophie!!! You did sooo great!! 👏🏻👏🏻❤️

I picked up a pair a couple if weeks ago and this was so informative and inspiring! Thank you for the motivation 💜

thanks sophia for motivating me to keep making videos and living life to the fullest!!! sending love and good energy from LA💖💖💖

You made me want to start roller skating! Its so fun and I could see how dedicated you are with this new hobby.

Another benefit: you made new friends and are now a member of the skating community. Rollerblades became more & more populare due to Covid here in Germany as well :)

Good for you on picking up a new hobby and sticking to learning it through. It’s very inspiring to watch 💕

Awesome video 🥰 you go girl !!!! I just ordered my skates yesterday and I'm so anxious to get them. I haven't skated since I was a child. Thanks for your motivation, hope you feel better too

I loved the introduction montage! It beautifully showed your progress and the editing was so perfect

I love you Sophie, your vlogs make me smile every single time!

The choreography section is beautiful. It looked like you guys enjoyed it and it made me so happy!!

LOVEEEE THIS NEVER STOP GROWING AND GLOWING ✨

I am not sure why am I crying... I just feel sooo proud of you. I am learning, I have been on my skates for 5 days now, sometimes it is frustrating but I believe, one day, I will be able to moooove smoothly 🙌🏾👑thank you for showing us your progress

Loved watching your progress! Super inspiring.

Way to go Soph!! 💕 So incredible to watch roller gals find their way 👌🏼

This is so great! I've been wanting skates since last year. You've inspired me to buy some and get out there and skate. Such amazing progress!

This was so fun and inspiring and oh my god! What a difference 30 days made! Incredible to see what doing something every day does, it actually kind a blew my mind. Amazing video, thanks for sharing! An absolute blast

loved this so much, you're such an inspiring student of life! this video was so invigorating and educational

I love this idea soooo much! It inspired me so much to try out new things in life. Thank you so much❤❤

Damn you improved soooo fast, you had a great routine and didn't drop it just because it was difficult !!! Now I wanna start on learning a new skills myself thanks to you 😃

Ahhh I was so excited when I saw that you uploaded this! I just picked up roller skating and watching you improve so quickly has inspired me to do more and get better! It’d be so cool if you had a skate meet up once it’s 100% safe to do! I can’t wait to see your skate journey 🥰

So inspired by you and this video, Sophie! It looks like SO much fun and your dedication to skating is making me want to pick up a pair of skates!!

i’ve been hesitant for months to buy skates but as soon as i saw this video i ordered a pair😭😭😌

You are an inspiration!!! I just got some and stumbled on this video. I am now going to buy the ones you got. They look so much more flexible than the ones I got. You are doing amazing!!!

Absolutely amazing!! I just got some skates so I'm super inspired by your progress!! Thanks for sharing 🤗

If I could, I’d like this video 1,000x! Love the content, the editing and your progress. Congrats on your new passion, Sophia! So inspiring!

Skating along the beach alone with headphones is everything!!🥰🧡

I seriously love you! You're so motivating and inspiring to try something new 💖 Annnnd you look amazing doing it girl 😍😘

This was so fun to watch! I haven't been on skates since I was little and never got the hang of it back then. This makes me want to give it another try as an adult. Love the feel-good vibe of this whole video 😁✨ your progress is incredible from start to end! Thank you for putting this out there and inspiring others to try something new!

This was super inspiring! I am going to try this 30 day challenge 🥰 thank you for documenting your journey!

Having gladbladder remover in a few days your videos helped a lot. Loving that you skate too cause skating has changed my life and i hate that this pain gets in the way of my skating. Excited to progress in skating of this surgery helps

your progress in one month is amazing! will be taking notes since my sister and i have been practicing every day

YaaaassssSophieeeee! I’m so impatient when it comes to your uploads but I should’ve know it would be worth it! Loveee this video and appreciate always putting in the work with your editing! You look so fly skating girl!👌🏾

This video was SO refreshing and INSPIRING 🤍

This is an older video so you might know this already but it's safer to fall knees, elbows then hands if you have to. You always want to avoid landing on your wrists because they're the most likely to get injured. Aim to fall forwards (we all fall, it's just part of it) but falling forwards is so much safer. 💙

Loved seeing your journey Sophie! I’ve been at it with skating for months and I’m still getting the hang of the basics lol you’re a doll and an true inspo! Would love to skate with ya one day 🥰💖

I'm beyond impressed with how quickly you improved!! For me, you are already an absolute pro, girl ♥

I just started skating and picked up my new skates in the beginning of the month. Can’t wait to be as good as you!

Awesome video thanks for sharing good luck on your skating journey! I’m just starting out mines still waiting on my new roller skates to be delivered this week 😁😁😁 so excited 🤪

I'm 40 and getting back into it. My daughter is 18 and just starting. She had rollerblades as a kid. We're excited to see so many people getting into it. Just nice to see people getting out and having simple fun❤.

Wow! Loved watching your progress Sophia

I just recently got a pair of inline skates! I used to skate a lot when I was younger and I'm excited to pick it up again. I wanna get some safety gear before I start up again. Gotta be safe! I'm so happy to see more people skating again 🥰
