I am 32 and I just started skating. There is so much to learn. I still struggle with stopping. I try the T-stop but my whole body turns around and I lose balance when I try it. I am hoping to get the game up soon. These videos definitely help. Thank you, Ricardo!!

Great video, really well done. Just want to note: I've been street blading since I was 12. 30yrs later, I can stop any of the ways shown, but mastering using the standard break is by far the most reliable and safest when are are at speed. Mastering using the break means your breaking skate is fully out in front of you and your trailing skate is 100% in line behind it acting like a rudder on a boat allowing you to choose if you want to put just a little or up to nearly all your weight on the break and still control your movement. Further, having one foot fully in front and one behind allows you to do this on very rough terrain without being pitched off balance... most street surfaces are a bit less than ideal. ;) Benefits: 1) You can still control trajectory (you can still alter your direction) 2) Your breaking surface is out in front of you meaning you can put more weight (nearly all of it) on the breaking surface allowing you to stop nearly as fast as the slide/power stop but with far less risk (especially on non-ideal surfaces) 3) You can use it on imperfect surfaces 4) You are not shredding your wheels 5) You have high control over the rate of breaking The result is you have a way to break at speed, on a hill, with no room to turn, relatively quickly, even if the ground sucks. Stepping plow is the next best choice as it still captures items 1, kinda-3 (depends on how big your wheels are and how bad the ground is), 4, and 5. When I'm not at speed (medium to slow), and there is a little room, I like the "spin" stop most (split legs one blade facing forward one facing back and carve out into a slight spin). It's elegant an fun. :) And again, because you have your feet spread relative to your direction you can still do it on relatively rough ground without getting pitched. Again, I really think this is a great video, and I love how you show the way to train into the different breaking methods. For someone without breaks I would have them master the stepping plow till they can do it in their sleep. If your skates have no break that usually means you have huge wheels (100+) so most terrain will be pretty smooth and stable for you (even on one foot, which is required for this), especially if you're on 4 wheels (long base extra stability). If all you can do is a T break and you have any real speed you will not be able to come to a stop in a reasonable amount of time. If you are on a rough surface with any real speed a slide/power stop is likely to end up with you on the ground. Both will shred expensive wheels vs. a cheap break block. Having said all that, my general advice is to roller blade like you would ride a motorcycle. Assume no one can see you; assume anyone will just go right in front of you at any time. If you are going too fast to stop in time, give yourself more room or slow down until it isn't a dice roll on if you could maneuver successfully. ~C PS, Pads and a helmet (you can pick up a pack of JBMs for cheap and they are pretty decent and in a variety of colors). Especially for someone learning; will let you focus more on what you're doing vs. being terrified of falling and scraping yourself up; even smooth concrete will shave your skin off at relatively low speeds. I haven't fallen in over a decade, but at some point I will and I'd rather be able to laugh it off. Plus when teaching my kids it just sets a good example so win/win for me.

Surprised you didn’t include the power slide, which seems to me to be the best of both worlds. Some of the stability of the first 5, but some of the style and quicker stopping power that the parallel slide. Some of us older guys don’t dig falling down if we don’t have to!

Great video and thank you for not cutting that fall on the slide stop. As a beginner, it helps me to remember that even experienced skaters end up on the ground sometimes.

I am 35 now and just started skating again after 17 years of break. I bought a pair of Seba FRX. Love them. i was a bit wobbly and shakey. I couldnt do powerslide, that I could do back then. Just the face that I can still skate makes me so happy. I am gonna get the game up soon.

i highly appreciate that you are wearing a helmet. 👍 thats what made me choose to watch your video over the others ones that showed up.

Thank you Ricardo! Super! Loved this one! Definitely needed this!

I roller bladed when i was a Teenager, and the people at the "Rink" I went to said the only way to really stop was the break or the T Stop. I never got into it enough to feel everything out like you showed in the video, but the pear and stepping pear look so easy to master. I used to do the splits just for kicks when roller blading ugh. Thank you for this basic and very well done video. I just ordered a new pair for the first time in 20+ years and am getting some learning in lol. Last time I skated I had a 56k Modem to 'Surf the Web.' By God I feel older than my 37 years lol.

I love the personality you put in your demonstrations. Your videos are presented very Friendly, yet Very matter of fact and full of good content. I really enjoyed watching How to stop. Some other online videos spend too much time with “fluff” to hold my interest. I will continue to watch your videos! I’m 64 and re-learned to skate at this time of my life wheeling a dog buggy with 3 older dogs for stability and security. They love their skating excursions! We all have a great time! Im now skating (half the time) without the buggy as security, and building confidence. Thank you again for your interesting videos. Please continue to make more!!! Best to you, T

Thank you so much.i am a new learning skating. This video very help me.

When I try to do a tstop I end up in the splits 😭

Thank you for the video, it helped me too much, even though i still don't have a rollerblade. I will have one only in my birthday, but i've seen this video to already know some ways to stop. I've already searched for many rollerblade breaking tutorial but, the most part wasn't too good as your video was. I will save the video to when i start skating, and hope it will help me too much. I think the best ways to stop for me would be the lemon-stop and the T-stop. Congratulations from Brazil!

I'm absolutely going to try that method of learning t-stops... that looks like a great way to learn it without any worry!!!

This is very helpful, I will definitely try them this weekend. Thank you Ricardo, cheers from Argentina

i like combining the t-stop with the normal brake, i also have my normal brake set up quite high so i can really lean back and brake fast

This was really useful ✨ thanks, im not a begginer but it was a good vid to watch, i learned 1 other way to brake

good tips. another method that people tend to forget is that you can bleed off excess speed simply by doing a series of tightish flicky turns in an S pattern, pushing the outside skate into the ground. essentially like the onion/plow method but without the problems of feet clattering into each other as each part of the S shape basically resets your stance before this happens whilst killing speed pretty effectively. this is also a good way of controlling your speed when going downhill, like a skier switching from edge to edge of the ski's

Awesome clear direction. Thank you

Great video quality and well-spoken descriptions.

gonna try it tomorrow. seems very usefull. thanks ricardo!

this is so great!!!👏🏼 thank you for making this video!

Thank you so much! this will really help me with my roller blading and my ice skating!

Really well demonstrated and explained thanks

Nice! You are an inspiration.

Thanks for the video dude. I just skated for the 4th or 5th time today. This was super helpful.

You´re a good teacher. Keep it up !

Excellent explanation with the compass as an example!

Best tutorial on stopping. Thanks!

Amazing instructions man! Thank you!

This was very helpful

I am 57yrs old and just getting back on them with son and grandson. I didn’t like that heel brake. I had no idea how to use it. My son took the brake off. I was currently using the method with feet pointing out and going in the circle. Because I’m just getting use to them again I was not comfortable with this method. My son sent me this link and I really found all of this helpful. I will not however use the last one. lol thank you!

brother thanks , am started to skating , now learning how to break. nice...

Thanks Ricardo. Thanks to you I am now aware I can actually stop. Tried out the lemon stop tonight and it works well.

You are amazing. Love it... Thank you for sharing

Thank you for teaching im 9 years old and I just bought inline skates

You did a good job Ricardo Lino

Thanks! A lot for teaching ♥️🙌

hey Ricardo, been watching your videos for the past month or so and you have inspired me to get back into Skating. Only problem now is to get over the feet cramping :)

Hey thanks man. I just got my skates today and you helped me from using parked cars and pedestrians as a way to stop.

Thankyou 😁 always enjoyable ... Love it 😊

I just got my inline skate, I can't wait to try it. I used to roller skate, but this is the first time that I have inline skate. Yayyy 😍

Really good video. I am going to buy one of your skates!

This really help me thank you!

I like that you kept it real 🤘

Very good video! Thanks

I used to play ice hockey all the time. I now try and walk/bike more often but I wanna get started rollerblading to *mostly* keep my hockey skills in check.

Slide to stop is the population.. The best way to stop and fast.. Thanks Lino.. 😊👍

Show de bola to aprendendo muito

Então vai, bora lá 🇧🇷❤️

Turning 33 and just got into skating. Wish me good luck! ❤

I have been following your advice.....good...

I wish I never stopped skating in the late 90's. K2 skates with shark skin was life.

thank you very much, it's very hopefull.

I use the compas version but also a t stop indoors. It is much more stable on floors that are too slippery or too grippy

Thank you sir for this video. I realy like this video and I am you're fan. I learn this video. Thank's for video.

So funny this video came up. I been skating most of my life aggressively. I road for Andy, and Geoff at one time so cessslides and stopping wasn't even thought of. Now with plates in my ankles and had ACL replacements, I ended up going too fast and I just couldn't cess slide, so I had to T stop... Felt so weird, like it wasn't 2nd nature anymore. Still was fun yet weird that this was never even on my mind ever lol

I have slide stopped quite a bit they are definitely harder to control because of the friction. I have also done pivots to inside to outside Mohawks which changes the direction that you are heded

i was on quads but i think i feel better with inline and want to do a lot of off road stuff, your videos are helpful. i love your boots and want something like that with bigger wheels. they look darn expensive though

As being a goon in hockey for all the years I played off and on, my only way of stopping was body checking 80% of the time other than a t-stop... Not gonna lie since I got back into skating after a several year hiatus I need to learn to powerslide or slide stop, especially on ice since I was never an edge skater. Appreciate the more depth into detail than some try to give, outside hockey players trying to give advice.

great tips! Thanks a lot :)

new skater here, wanted to lose weight, your and other's videos have been very helpful to inspire me to not be afraid and just buy some today. thank you :D

Great video

Thanks much appreciated!

It’s funny that even tho I’m not into rollerblading or ice skating I’ve always naturally used the T stop to slow down

Excelente profesor lml

So glad you have this video here. I needed to brush up on stopping since I just picked mine up again after 18 years 😂 I can go just fine. But I don't want to eat cr** trying to stop full speed ahead😊

thank you ! i was playing skate for too long time like 5y or something and now i learn how to stop lol

Thank you! 😊

Oh man, after seeing this video. I wanna buy inline skates. I know how to skate, I thought before those kinds of break styles are for show offs. Lol. But now I know why. Good job Sir teaching us how to break properly. Keep up the good work!

Very helpful

Yo your the man!

great video!

We like sir. Because you are giving us knowledge ❤❤❤❤❤❤

Lmao I’ve been skating for years but always relied on a break, today I bought a pair of endurance pro 125s and they’re hella quick lol, no break though, Hope your tips help! I’m off to practice in couple hrs haha Thanks bro!

If I need to stop fast, I jump 180 degrees backwards, then do a reverse T stop :) The only issue with this is, I can't use it on my speed skates as the risk of braking my ankle is real :) ( if there's too much grip :) ) It's been 5 year or so ago since I used my speed skates, watching you your channel makes me want to buy some urban skates once again. I love that PS is making use or torx now, I always destroyed the hex axles :)

Inspiring video.. ..as i want to become skating

That fall you did in the beginning literally JUST happened to me 😅

fantastic video

Skating inline for years now, used to doing indoor skating but I’ve progressed to outdoors in the years of late. I do a mixture of stopping depending on the situation I’m in. I like lemon, heel brake, and variations of curls (carving/turning). 😌I’m trying to learn t-stop but struggling with weight distribution. 😅 Still too nervous about speed increase to even reach a point where I need to attempt slide stopping 😂

I’m 26 and put my skates back on after 2 years to improve fitness. I wore out my heel brake, so it’s no good. This helped a ton

I never slide stop because the hockey style Powerslide stop gives me good breaking power with basically no chance of falling. But it definitely looks cool and Ii should practice it more.

My first skates since like....2000...are out for delivery right now (FR FR1s). I can't wait to be sore all over again! Thanks for the great content!

Thank you it helped a lot ^-^

Boss Man Ricardo Lino Yeah baby! Shout OUT from viva LAS VEGAS!!! WE ARE GLOBAL BABY!!!

As a new skater I started with slide/hockey stop but that stepping plow looks too scary to try!

Props for skating for so long, and for all the ways to stop. Started skating in the early 90's but never learned to stop well, gave it up in 2000's, I agree that stopping was one of the biggest reasons. Other reasons are, where do you put your skates when you get to the store, restaurant, work. Now I have to carry my shows with me, swap to them, and carry my skates with me.

That fall was great! Thanks for the laugh 🙏🏻

This was the best video

Good, thank u 👍👍

Thank you champ

Thanks for the great video Ricardo. Very helpful. What kind of skate boots and frames are you wearing? They look very nice!

Thank you:)

42, getting back in. Cheers!

Nice Video, I like that Boot, can you tell me which boot it is. I am looking for a new Boot at the Moment my favorite one is the Powerslide HC EVO 2021 do you have other recommandations?

Brilliant 👍🏻

Thankyouuuu

Sick

So awesome thank you!! I wish I saw this video like 15 years ago! Haha I never learned to stop, I just used objects to skate into lol. I guess that’s the 7th way 😜
