JMK Freeskate Tutorial - How I learned to freeskate 

Great video!

Great job! Fantastic details given!

Fun watching the journey. I have a sloping street in front of my house, so that helped. I was most excited when I could pump hard enough to go up a moderate hill. I'm trying to learn switch now and it's like starting all over again. You were right about how good it feels to accomplish goals as you learn.

Nice! This is a great video for new skaters to watch

Super helpful video. Thank you

haha I also had the thumbs with scratches and damaged, and never realized it was because of taking wrong the skates

Thank you for sharing! 😊

All the best 😄 and enjoy .

Thank you so much for the video! I just started a week ago and your vid reflects a lot of my own progress. My inner thighs are currently killing me right now! Here's to getting better!

Joanna, I loved the video. I think I can do it now. love Mom

Thanks for sharing! I've been riding mine for about a month at this point and feel like, while I have pumping down pretty well, there's a lot to improve at and learn still. That first week definitely got pretty frustrating at times. Some multi-day breaks helped me come back to it with a refreshed perspective and rejuvenated muscles.

This video was very helpful. Thank you. On day 5 and was feeling frustrated. Looking forward to going out and trying the S turns now.

Thanks

so cute

Thank you so much!! I got my freeskates yesterday. Today 2 day of learning. You give me motivations😭

Cool video! I got my freeskates 1 month ago but since it's winter and it's raining a lot I was only able to do 6 half hour long sessions up until now. My process was faster, I would say I looked like your day 10 by session number 5. I think I found better tutorials since 2 year have passed, and also I immediately practiced on a long slope. Can't wait to get back on them and see what my day 10 looks like!

I just got my skates, and I can relate the pain on the inner thighs

One thing a lot of tutorials never mention is the burning on your inner thighs 🤧

Ah thts cool. You should post an quick short lil update video!

I really appreciate these learing videos. They show that it doesn't happen quickly. Some of the tutorials I've watched make it seem like you learn in like 20 minutes which is really unrealistic. Have you progressed to any tricks yet or are you focussed on using them for transportation?

I just got mine today... this video is perfectttttt... I just can't manage to get any speed or the motion all that good yet

Thats a beautiful journal. Im like 90mins .. Cant wait to pump!

Damn, it took me almost 3 months before I finally execute the pumping properly. I learned pumping without using a slope and it was so difficult. I was practicing on a textured tile floor hall. I am to afraid to practice outside because the road was too steep; I might get injured. My town doesnt have a proper sidewalk too.

Im at day 5 basically, where the S movement seems just out of reach and frustrating. Im glad to see it will just come as long as i keep trying and dont give up.

Any new progress? And could you convince my 45 year old mom to try them?

This was informative! Are you still riding your Freeskates?

what do you mean there werent detailed tutorials there tons

On my day 4 right now, the hardest thing for me is recovery of muscle. I can't even attempt to pump because my inner thigh hurts a lot :(

I been practicing for about 2 weeks and still not much progress as I can't have the momentum of moving my feet. So frustrating. Wondering its my problem or my inline as mine is made in China cheap skate products

I feel this . The S motion is harder than rocket science .

Your back leg needs to more work, front leg is doing everything.
