Forward Roller Skating - CRUISE!!!! 

I hope the music is loud! So no one hears me say! Down with the But! Up with the Gut😣

"so what we're gonna do-" *DOES A TURN AND STARTS TO SKATE BACKWARDS* me at home: well, that's just crazy. i can't do all that right now. *shovels popcorn into mouth*

I went to my skate rink and tried this for the first time as a beginner skater and my thighs hurt for a week haha! A great workout for my legs! Im saving up for my own skates so i can practice more often

I've wanted to learn how to skate since i was like 7- but i was always afraid of falling, because i was terrible at walking as it was. I just dug out my mom's skates at 1'30 am, strapped em on, and practiced standing in my room, it might not seem like a lot, but it is to me, because i've been scared to even put skates on! but now that ive discovered this video im confident i can learn to skate fairly quickly.

A tip for those working on bubbles!! To make yourself use the right muscles, I time my breathing. Out when pushing your feet out, and breathe in when bringing your feet in! Makes you bring your gut up :)

Your explanations are always on point and very clear, I can't wait till you upload more videos!

This is the ONLY tutorial I understood about braiding/crossing over/cruising like this!!!! Thanks Dirty Deb 🙏

I love her! Because she's thick on skates! She has hips like me! Which proves u don't have to be a size 2 to skate well!!!! U r soooooo beautiful 👍🍭⚘❤😊👌😁

i love this she makes it looks so easy i rlly want skates

This channel is iconic I’m mad I’m just now finding it 😍

You are such an excellent teacher. Love the way you break the steps down, and make beginners feel good about not being able to skate perfectly when they first start skating.

In some type of way i love hearing her skate roll around the rink. It soothing

Um, how do you stop sweating? You're just so effortless and amazing. Can you do a tutorial on how to stop sweating?

I have been searching all over for this basic skate move. I see it everywhere but didnt know what it's called. Cruising!!!!😊 At 54 going to practice a ton! Thanks again!

You taught me how to do that!! I do it all the time now! FUN✌🏼

Love your tutorials!I got outside & tried “cruising” & fell 3 times 🤦🏾‍♀️. I looked down! You were right; don’t look down.🙅🏾‍♀️Thanks

People at the only skating rink near me are very rude. I've tried my best to make friends with them but they won't even give me the time of day since they already have all their little cliches. Thank you for the video though! I've been trying these out for a while but I've learned some new tips!

I'm 50 in London where there are no classes because of lockdown and teaching myself to skate and yours are the best videos I have found by a mile. lOVE 💖 and love your personality 😊

This has to be the most used step (skate) I used both on floor and trails. Its relaxing and I can dance to my music without much effort (kinda of resting mode yet keep with the beat...cruising)

Best skating tutorials on RU-vid!

I must say that I practiced this last weekend at the skater park and I caught myself having a "Dirty Deborah" voice in my head telling me "don't look at your feet", "snack area TIGHT", "down with the butt up with the gut" hahaha :D But IT WORKED!!! Thank you!!! :) Can you make a video on how to skate downhill? It really scares me because I don't feel that I can stop. I am practicing my transitions but the area here isn't very flat so there are tons of small up-and-downs.

I love how you try to harvest skaters with style, that’s reason I started roller skating!

I practice every weekend for a couple of hours if the weather is ok. In the last two weeks I have begun to skate backwards with confidence, do crossovers both ways (a bit messy the ‘ wrong’ way, but not awful), cruised and even managed a few very tentative transitions! When I feel unsure about my skating I watch Deborah’s videos and reassure myself that practice is the key and is in fact what we are always doing! Thank you from a skater reborn.

Thanks your videos got me skating so much better than I use to.

Gurl you gained one follower from Italy. Just bought my skates and ready to learn and rock the streets.

Hi Deborah! Thank you! I returned to skating with my kids. We all love it. After a month my kids were still "walking" on their skates. We watched your videos, They were practicing ✂️ and skating well in a day. Your vocab and process of breaking it down is just what we needed. Now we practice by wearing our skates all day while we homeschool. And we pick a new skill to focus on from your videos. We skate outdoors along the beach. We are at the rink once a week with other homeschool families! We have been telling them all about you, now I am teaching homeschool Kids how to skate at the park. Thank you! We could not do it without you! Brisbane, Australia fan club!

The way how you explain step by step what need to be done to achieve the goal is absolutely amazing. 🙌🏻 It's motivating and encouraging. Thank you.

I just went to a skating rink today with my family for the first time in 6 years. I have to admit... I was a total noob again lol; I had to re-teach myself how to skate again. This was super helpful and useful!!! I love your enthusiasm and how you explained every step! After watching this video.. im super hyped for this next time I'm going skating again; can't wait to try all these new tricks.

You are so great! I am learning to skate at 33 all by myself and I had no idea how stuff works and what to do with which part of my body. But you explain it so well that I not only know that I have to practice, but HOW I have to practice. I am already making progress thanks to you. Thank yooooou! Sending love from Vienna, Austria.

I learned so much in a month I just realized I learned this on my own to get comfortable with crossovers. Front and back dont forget people.

Dang i miss doing this back in the day 😊 we used to add the trucking move to go around the turns. Best times of my life. To the beat of the music is the most important part, its not just willy nilly

I just want to let you know how much I appreciate this videos. No roller skate culture in my country, no roller rink, but I love it and practise it alone on outside concrete floor. You are the only teacher I have access to so I hope you will continue filming this type of videos!

Deborah! Thank you so much, again!!!! You are the BEST!!! Hugs!! I'm practicing!!🙏♥️🛼

I took a cruise, but it wasn't on skates! It was on a boat. You really have to master crossovers before you cruise. It makes it much easier. Dirty Deborah is an excellent teacher. She really is!!

You’re a life saver thank youuuu. Been dying to know how to do this and you broke it down really well. Learning to skate while quarantining is keeping me sane!

Thank you for these videos Dirty. They are so helpful in teaching people how to skate.

Thank u SO MUCH! I’ve been skating the beginners way sense I was 10, but over time I’ve seen others flying around the rink doing other styles, this was one I wanted to learn. Now I’m going to go practice.

dirty deb!!!! bless my sweet little infant skater soul with some of your knowledge PLS because this is the most elegant thing i've ever seen. i watched this video because my mind was blown in your outdoor video and it just confuses the heck out of me?! i feel like i've watched tons of outdoor, beginner skate videos and no one else has really taught it this way?! i love it, i'm just at a loss about how to go about doing it!

I have been wanting to learn how to do that. Thank you.

The scissors looked so hard and now I understand it! Can’t wait till my skates come in!

Best Rollerskating videos on yt! Thanks! 🙏🏽

there’s not a lot of skaters on youtube, you’re so helpful!! been watching for a while and been skating since september of 2018, these videos have helped tremendously!

Please don’t ever stop making these videos. They are detailed and super helpful ❣️

You're a great teacher. Really. As someone who teaches, you make this exciting to learn. Will subscribe. Thank you! ❤🎉

I lost all confidence when you turned around while talking! 😂

I'm back. I had to get my skates out of the garage. 😁 Cute shirt. Thank one for sharing.

I can’t help but enjoy every moment of your charisma🌼

That’s one of the best looking skating rinks I have ever seen

Now I realize what I've been doing wrong, finally! 🤣 What I think I was doing wrong is not putting enough weight on my skating leg and then definitely not putting just my heel of the free leg down. I think I was putting tie down and then getting squirrelly. So I'm gonna try it your way tomorrow! Thanks for such great instructions.

Love these videos! Please explain the shuffle, thanks

Idk why but these vids are awesome. She shows you what youre learning and shows you them. I always love the beginning when she slides in XD.

I'm back at 42 and skating again... Beat memories from being a kid are at the rink. Thanks for these awesome videos!

This is exactly what I wanted to learn how to do. Had no idea what it was even called glad I watched all your videos. I never realized two wheels were up in the front.

I love the new and improved! Thank you!

Amazing teaching skills and fun.I subscribed within seconds.Getting my first pair of roller skates in two weeks.Very happy I found your channel.

Awesome tutorial Debbie Debs!👌🏽👌🏽 Your techniques are flawless! You are my inspiration! Thank you for sharing. 🏅🏅🙏🏽🙏🏽

Your explaining is awesome! I practiced and now I really can do this! In the beginning I always lost speed but then I got the right feeling. Thank you so much!

This is the video i've been waiting for, thank you! I kind of puzzled it out on my own but it's good to know I was on the right track

Been practicing with your outdoors skating video and could not get it until I watched this one to teach me how to scissor/cruise! I get it now, lol!

I watched this before I went out tonight and spent an hour and a half at the rink working on getting it...and it worked! Thank you so much! I haven’t been able to figure out how to get my feet to crossover until today. It’s starting to feel more natural and have a better flow because of this video and I can see how many other things I’m working on will benefit! Thank you💕

Great video. I’m definitely going to practice this today.

YAAY! I totally understand this technique now! Thank you for sharing. 😁

Down with the but, up with the gut! Legend, you are the best D!

THE best teacher !!!!

This is great! Its something I've been practising on my own - i practice in an empty parking lot with outdoor wheels. I love my bubbles/scissors. Haven't been able to practice for a few days so hope i havent lost anything!

Thank you so much!! I’m going to take all your advice. Please don’t stop your teachings❤️

You look super cool on roller skates! Many years of working hard. I’m waiting for my wheels to come in the mail. Really scared but wanna start the journey this summer 😦.

I'm still a beginner, but I think I have seen all of your tutorials and making tons of progress! And I did teach a friend just three days ago how to skate forward! Thanks!

Thank you so much for the videos! I just picked up skates again for the first time since I was a kid. While I cruised all over the neighborhood back then, I realized I would have to relearn it all as an adult! Your videos have helped me get back to skating with confidence in no time at all! I look forward to all your future videos!

I love the DJ at fountain Valley!!

Thank you for this, I can’t wait to try it! 🙏🏽💜

I've been skating for 42 years now. Just got new Atoms on my boots yesterday. I have to admit, I clicked on this video because you're pretty damn fine, DD...but I did actually learn something. Thank you! Keep rollin', girlie!

Finally buying myself some skates after more than a decade!! Thank you for your videos, I can’t wait to groove n cruise 😍

One of my fave videos. The way you break it down. Watched this one a few times. Thanks Debbie

I’m so eager for the next video!!😁❤️
