Watch this video to learn the everyone's favourite Wizard move. The Back Open Gazelle.
Skates: Wizard NR100 Complete
A Gazelle is a two foot, three turn. A three turn is a transition from back to front or front to back while changing edges and traveling around the arc of a circle.
The Gazelle is unique because it has two added variations - Open and Closed. Therefore the Gazelle can be done 4 different ways.
Forward Closed Gazelle
Back Closed Gazelle
Forward Open Gazelle
Back Open Gazelle
In this video we focus the Back Open Gazelle. To get yourself ready for the Gazelle there are a few steps to follow.
Predator - Gliding with feet slightly scissored, hands out and head up. With weight placement on the third wheel while rolling forward and second wheel while rolling backwards
Slalom - Slaloming helps with the with edge to edge weight transfer. Practise slaloming forward and back, make sure you are using corresponding edges.
Push + Pull - Push half of the forward slalom practised around the arc of a circle. Pull is the backward slalom practised around the arc of a circle.
Rotation with Push + Pull - The turning of your upper body timed with the push and pull movement
Now you can Gazelle!!!!! Yeah!!!!!

Thanks brother, for taking the time to put this together. Us mortals, really appreciate it! 👍

@bernsahr 4 года назад

You will probably not read it because the video is 4 Years old, but i love your very systematic approach where you cut it down into small, easy steps which can be trained separately. The ice on the cake would be, after naming the 4 variations of the gazelle to show them all to give us visual feedback :)

@pabloc.moreira7165 7 лет назад

I'm really impressed with how you make your videos and how do you explain the drills. It requires much time and effort to include as much information, but it helps a lot. You make it look easy to do. So, thank you very much for take your time. Regards from Spain.

My pleasure. I love to skate and I want to share the love.

@jamesrose2312 2 года назад

Quality, just quality. You are a great teacher, exemplify safety and control, and promote skating as a practice. Just subscribed, thank you for your work.

@subtlegroove9867 Год назад

Asha demonstrates the techniques perfectly, like she's explaining to a 5 year old. That's where you learn the moves from A to Z in a proper fashion. Then you move onto Shaun. He takes you deep into every move, makes you get immersed in the steps and lets you "internalize" the entire sequence even before you put the skates on.. I admire this guy deeply!

I had the distinct pleasure of attending one of Colin and Leon's instructional sessions. It was life altering. I do forget it all after a while though, and it's great to have this video for reference too!

Wauw man, I picked up skating after 20 years, (did aggressive). Now I am skating some urban and trying out a bit freestyle and I really love your video's . Truly inspiring. I think it's very cool the way you translate your love for skating in (scientifical) tecnique tutorials like this. Also really had to laugh at 12:28 where you said you are biting your tong to not say anything but still you talk, because you really want the people to understand it and it truly shows your passion :) Keep on rocking with those awesome vids! Greetings from The Netherlands.

@infinityphotorob 8 месяцев назад

I just started ice skating with hockey skates and really feel the rocker now. I have been using a lot of the wizard skating ideas learning my turns and edges. Sounds funny but it is very much translating across. It makes me realize how much I need to upgrade my inline setup for next summer.

@TIJEY-BEG 3 года назад

I saw this move in another video of yours. It looks amazing! I watch your video over and over again, practice it over and over again, until I master it.

@dhack1 7 лет назад

I've been wondering how to think about and visualize these 3 turns (since your last video on them) and this video really opens it up. Thank you.

@FlowSkate 7 лет назад

Excellent. This is my first attempt at properly breakdown the Gazelle into learnable components. Glad is helps.

@Zer0IN28 5 лет назад

I have found, that I love to hate you! Hahaha! I got back into skating inline at 38 years old. No matter how many instructional videos I find. I often find myself coming back to watch you. Even in my better days, I would not have said I broke novice level. Nor would I say I have yet. Sometimes, watching how detailed and meticulous you are about any instructional you deliver, can be painstaking at times. But, I have truly come to appreciate your breakdowns that come in fine tuned detail. If I did not care about the way that I skate, I certainly would not watch you LOL! Thanks for all that you do! I also love the shirt, I'm a big fan of all of the Four Horsemen! You, Stoppard, Tiago, and Lino!

@johnnycboi 6 лет назад

Thanks for the video. I recognized this trick from one of your older videos. I have always wanted to do this. I’ve been working on 3-turns for a while, unrelated, and this trick looks like a 2-foot parallel 3-turn. I realize I already can do this but have never recognized it. Skating is amazing in how many people find different paths to the same movement. I love the discovery of skating. Keep up the awesome videos.

@mariosalamone Год назад

Great video. I can’t wait to try it

@dotmatrix6593 5 лет назад

@funkypencil898 7 лет назад

Oh wow...really great tutorial Shawn! I've been wondering how you guys do this. Do you need a rockered set up for this to work? I skate Xsjado's with a Kizer powerblade/72mm wheel flat set up. No probs doing slaloming crossovers etc - just gets 'sticky' when transitioning.

@FlowSkate 7 лет назад

I have GC Bigs with 72mm and I can do Gazelles. Gazelles are easier on a Natural Rocker but they can be done on any set up other than anti rocker. The biggest difference I find when doing Gazelles on 72mm wheels is the edging. I can not edge as much with smaller wheels.

@funkypencil898 7 лет назад

Thanks Shawn, I'll definitely give it a go!

@nadster76 3 года назад

What is the reggae song at the start of this video?? I love it! I'd love it in my headphones when I skate. When I Shazam it, it goes to some random song that is nothing like it haha 😂 anyone know it?

@zhangwei525 Год назад

Cool. Is this can be done on the stock frame which is the flat setup?

@jaa2472 3 года назад

love the amount of detail here, on another note what skates and frames are u using in this video and is that a flat or rockered setup?

@fathomfreedive 3 года назад

so,,, we have to be on rockered set up to turn the blades quickly like this yes? my setup is flat right now

@kuemagecollector 2 года назад

I don't know any wizard moves yet. Is this a good move to learn 1st? tnx!

@bassmania84 3 года назад

hey man is this all doable on a kizer 90 frame in 5th elements? its my setup and im kinda struggling , not sure if its this special rocker you have?

@FordOrama 7 лет назад

Great as aways! Q. : The "pole" position its like a way to remove your weight from the wheels? as you stand up the skate becomes a little bit lighter so you can change direction more easily? and again thanks for take time and effort into your great vids. namaste, from Brasil!

@tobiasfreyer3540 5 лет назад

Hey Shaun, Thank you for your inspiring videos. They motivate a lot and it's cool that you take the time to explain and explain again :-) You wrote its possible to do this on any setup. Especially on a three wheels setup? I'm asking myself if three wheels could perform this. I'm thinking about to buy a pair of these. Would be great hearing from you :-) Greetings from Germany!

@SKITZR 2 года назад

Thank you Shawn, this video is helping me learn the moves. Not a shameless plug. But I am uploading progress, if you're curious to check it out.

@not.deannasky3637 4 года назад

i bought kids blades and im not sure if u can EASILY crossover using them what am i saying

@krisrezulski9621 7 лет назад

Can it be performed on an anti rocker setup? Ive tried it few times and i keep doing that fakie 180 spin which comes naturally for me. Gazelle looks so steezy though. Any tips?

@FlowSkate 7 лет назад

Gazelles and 3 turns are very difficult on anti rocker. You usually pivot on the middle two wheels. Without the middle wheels you end up pivoting on the front and back wheels which has a different effect.

@kyy281unit15 5 лет назад

Attempting this highlights a consistent tendency with my skating: my weight always seems centered on my rear two wheels. It feels like I'm skating around on my heels. I've tried adjusting the cuff to a forward tilt, but that doesn't seem to help... any other ideas? Keep up the terrific videos! Many thanks from Oklahoma City Skates: Seba FRX; experience: novice

@Ricky-tu9qn 5 лет назад

Can you do this stuff on a hi lo setup? Im planning on buying some high light v2s anyway but for a few weeks ill have my hockey hi los

@Royklein2011 7 лет назад

been trying the gazalle for a few months now from watching you, no real success so far. i'll take your video with me tonight on the streets, and see how it goes... just to make sure, its possible without a rockered setup, right? (skating on fr1's)

@FlowSkate 7 лет назад

Yes it is. You can do it.

@ericmichaud2549 7 лет назад

Thanks for the video dude! The 4 turns are tripping me out. I am comfortable with forward closed and backwards closed (with an illusion spin). The other two don't feel natural or make sense to me.

@FlowSkate 7 лет назад

Crazy. I struggle with the back closed. I was never any good at illusion spins. Usually ended with me smashing my shins on the rail.

@evgeniy_moscow_gooner 7 лет назад

Dear Shaun, please, make a tutorial on skating down stairs. Maybe facing the stairs and backwards and in your video you skated them sideways. I would love to skate the stairs sideways btw because I think it very stable and you can see better than when going backwards.

@FlowSkate 7 лет назад

I have comment on stair riding in a few other videos. I will be sure make a complete stair riding video. I also like skating stairs sideways. A fun and safer way to get down the stairs.

@FlowSkate 7 лет назад

It is one of the those skate moves that seem like magic. I am sure you could do it.

@jerseyboynaz 7 лет назад

Great video. I have asked before but your never broke it down. Your rocker setup. Please what is the rocker set at. Low high high low. Or Low high low low. Your moves are very artistic so I assume similar rockker setup. Please clarify. Thanks

@FlowSkate 7 лет назад

My skate has a Natural Rocker set up. Natural Rocker is a 1mm rocker on the first and last wheel on a slanted UFS frame. UFS is the universal frame system the standard for aggressive skates. UFS frames are flat. Traditional frames have a raised heel. The slant of the Natural Rocker allows me to more freely pivot on the third and second wheel. You can develop a natural rocker on any skate by rotating your wheels 1 to 1, 2 to 2, 3 to 3 and 4 to 4. The natural wear of you wheels will create a natural rocker.
