the most crystal clear coaching ever. finally i can do transition after 2 hours non-stop practising, follow exactly step-by-step, the weight shifting, the head, the shoulder, the feet, as long as i follow everything, i'm good. keep it going & thank you..

Jerica does not contribute to my “hate” at all. Just sick of y’all’s whiney baby selfishness. Every single argument you’ve posted is all about you and not anyone else suffering due to the pandemic. It is your constitutional duty to provide for the good of the commonwealth and you are failing. My son died a hero. I’m not suffering a smidge of karma fuck you very much!

I quit derby because I couldn't transition and now I'm sitting here plotting how I can get back to the rink to try this. This was the CLEAREST explanation of weight shifting I've ever seen and now I want to try again!

I'm going tonight. Fractured tailbone and ulnar nerve damage can be quiet for a while. Bad fall on old skates with no upkeep. Lesson learned hard way. Anyway, have been binging on skating videos and you're the best. The others seem sweet and good people, but I can't concentrate on what's happening. TBI, as well as musician and tone,dynamics, mechanics all come into play. Your squeaks barely noticed but the street sounds weren't pleasant. Prolly won't do outside skating because of that. Anyway, my best friend is from California and it's her little granddaughter who I'm treating. She is 9 and in remission. She was allowed to pick her activity so I had to step up. You've helped so much, I just don't have the right words to express my gratitude. If I get to make the California trip, I've promised myself a visit to your rink. SC is ONLY a gazillion miles away huh? Take care and we be watching. Will let you know how tonight goes. Nofalldown nofalldown nofalldown

@Dirtydeborahharry 5 лет назад

Try to think of the turn as linear. You do not need to open up as much as you need to get the lead foot behind you and follow with the other. Think as if you are in a very tight hallway.

@lyndagruen2047 4 года назад

Dirty Deb, your instruction is excellent. Very clear, detailed, technical. A lot of us actually like that type of instruction - because if we pay attention and practice, we can then explain it to our kids and friends. I would generally recommend your instruction for inline skaters, too, so long as they take into account the differences between quads and inlines. (Even the toe stop isn't a huge issue when you have artistic inline skates, which likewise have some sort of stopper in the front. ; ) In our inline community, it's been tougher on average finding detailed, technical videos tutorials like this. Inline skating instructor Asha Kirby of Skatefresh teaches like you do; but she has to charge for most of her content, because that's probably her main or sole livelihood. I can respect that. When I have the money, I do what I can to support folks like you and her. = )

@Dirtydeborahharry 4 года назад

Thank you so much for this comment. I struggle with my videos every time I make them because I know that I will go long to explain the details. I lose viewers because they tend to only be able to focus for 5 minutes. I think I would be doing a disservice if I rushed to explain it all in less than 5. Alas I remain committed to the full video.

@rhiannonleigh5015 4 года назад

Your emphasis on only needing to lift your wheels a tiny bit is the key! Thats the biggest thing that helps me break my fear! You’re incredible at breaking things down and simplifying things!
