Roller Skaters Try Inline Skates (AKA Rollerblades) 

I have such serious pavement envy. I wish I lived somewhere that has huge smooth paths like that.

These videos make me want to buy pastel clothes, move to California, and just roller skate

Nobody: Not a soul: Pigeon: what’s an easy

Me, a rollerblader, "How do you turn in roller skates?!?!?! Witchcraft."

Aww the lady asking if y’all wanted her to take a picture of all of you.. bless her 💗

I have a video idea. How about a video on basic tools that should be in your skate bag or that all roller skaters should have. I love your videos Indie

When she said "i dont know how to stop on these" i was just like use the brake then i see oh wait...they dont have brakes lol wut

I’m a figure skater and tried rollerblading for the first time and I tried used my non existent toe picks to stop (I was barely moving and I wanted to stand still and fell on my face)

As a rollerblader, the first time I tried “normal” skates, I was soo confused. Its kinda hard to retrain your brain 6+ years of rollerblading and figure skating

**them talking about how weird the blades are and how small they are and that they’re stiff** Me: *laughs in figure skating*

I've been a blader since I was 9. I recently tried on a pair of roller skates last month and boy....WHAT A CHALLENGE! I almost ate shit a few times and just wasn't feeling it. I'll stick to my inlines for decades to come ❤

I’ve skated in both . When you girls where coming down the ramp, reminded me of when me and my siblins used to go down the incline streets in Mexico zigzagging our way down. Never knew how I didn’t get hurt 😂

I started learning to skate in roller blades, so when I tried learning how to roller skate it was really hard.

As someone who uses rollerblades it would’ve been easier to go down the ramp normally while holding on to the rail lol

Remember if you’re going from quads to rollerblade, you have to trust your wheels to hold when you lean to turn. Do not keep the blade straight up and down when turning. It can be a scary feeling at first to lean your skates with your body to turn.

As an inline skater, you guys were STRESSING ME OUT lol. You didn't have on helmets despite never really doing this, you didn't know how to stop, and you got insanely close to an edge at some point. I aged like 40 years XD

I think it's actually easier to draw a curve on inline skates.

This video could not have come at better time because I am an inline skater that is currently learning to roller skate! So far I feel roller skates are very hard to maneuver in and hurt my feet but I am hoping my feet just need to get used to it. With blades, the insole keeps my feet super comfy while in skates, everything is just hard all over. It's crazy how different they are. I want to be good at roller skating, tho! I noticed a lot of people choose one over the other and that's not going to be me. They are both fun! So if you're trying to figure out which one you should choose- I say why choose!? It's okay to enjoy more than one set of wheels. Thanks for another fun video

Them: Slips trying to stop Me in roller skates: Collapses trying to stop because im used to roller blades

I’m impressed that you did this with no heel stops and no helmets 😅

Weird that they don't have heel stops on them. When I go down hills on inline I just drag the heel stop.

I used to live in rollerblades when I was a teen!! I'm pretty sure I still have my Roces somewhere, actually... I wonder how they'd hold up now that they're about 25 years old. 🤔

I use to rollerblade a LOT in middle school it’ll be interesting to see how I am on roller skates as an adult😅

Me, an inline skater, seeing the title: oh this is gonna be FUN

“How do roller blades go down these” we just go 👁👄👁 we run into walls face plant and abt die BUT ITS FUN

hey indy, what happened at 5:15?

Indy: Look, I got Yeezy’s! Pigeon: What’s an easy? Us: That’s why we LOVE YOU PIGEON!

Doing a t-stop would be one way to slow yourself down. That’s how I do it at least.

I've always been a blader and I'm going to try skates for the first time soon and I'm so excited to see how I like them!

You guys transitioned so nicely, I started on quads when I was like 8 I think and then I hated it so a year later I got my first pair of rollerblades and I’ve been rollerblading for about 6 years now.

6:06 “Indy, MOVE!!” 😂😂❤️

I was born rollerskating, then I went ice skating in the galleria-it was easy to ice skate, then I had to go to rollerblading because at one time, that was all that was avail and before internet even existed. Now we can order rollerskates online. I hardly found any difference between the three. For rollerblading, I use the plow stop, turn around stop, or my version of on the ground powerslide, or just go into a cannonball. I did see the stairs, but if they are close together, you can skate stairs in rollerblades. to carve, skate on the edges of the wheels, inside/outside edges. Oh, one last tip from an idiot (me) never go straight down a ramp on the beach with sand at the bottom. I made that mistake in Galveston. I thought oh what is the big deal about falling on sand-a very big deal the lifeguards thought i was going to have to go to ER. Actually I learned carving from both of you.

Omg when you said "that episode of catfish with the medium" i know exactly what you're talking about. That was the freakiest thing ever and i still think about it all the time!

The fact I can only use blades makes me laugh 😂😂

I am so used to inlines from when I was 12. I decided to try quad skating and I am so glad I found your channel 😭 for some reason i having difficulties in doing stopping and turning. Thank you!!

Yah! Pidgeon! Representing us married chicks who don’t keep up with the new hype beast brands. Yeezies? Girl we have budgets now.

I would love to see you try out those rollerballs from the 90s that we’re just two big balls for wheels.

I love Pigeon so much!!!!!!! She literally told everyone on the internet that the day she carved hills and taught us how, she sexed Jacob!!! ICONIC

Tried my blades after a while skating on my quads and realised I do love the both types! You can really enjoy them both and there's absolutely no need to decide what type of roller skates is better! Also, I realised that any move or trick I learned on quads can be naturally transferred to inline skating. But the technique I learned on my blades isn't necessarily applicable to quads 🤷‍♀️

5:20 I thought my screen was broken

What's funny is that I started on Rollerblades, and so they're what I know and am used to. This year I'm hopefully getting a pair of Moxi Beach Bunnies as a graduation gift, so your difficulties with the rollerblades will be the mirror version of my struggles on skates!

I grew up with inlines and so I'm used to the brake being in the back. When I started using skates the brake being in the front was awful for me. Made me switch back to inlines

I’d love to try these! It seems like you could really get some speed on them. Also just wondering- when will Moxi Beach Bunnies be shipping out?

I cannot believe that they literally got use to them in a SECOND. It makes sense though

As an aggressive skater/blader I enjoyed watching this video. It's kind of refreshing seeing other people riding inlines and getting the hang of them instantly and just cruise around. As a kid I grew up with both Skates and Blades so I found that some techniques can translate to both, such as my personal favorite turning move that I found works on both, called the half-sail which I use for sharp turns and the full-sail which I use for wide turns. While I don't expect people to take a pair of quads to a skate park, the experience is totally different on quads rather than inlines. On quads I felt that I had little to no resistance and wobble effects after tricking and landing back on the ramp. Where as on blades I came close to falling 90% of the time.

Stop just speed up and swing ur feet to the side. Sooo, like when you do the stop in roller skates where u drag one foot, except kinda with two feet and really quick. I started on roller blades, but they make ur feet hurt much sooner. 😅😅 I'm glad you've used the Impala skates tho. They're so cute. Thank u

Pigeon I'm with you, I'm 21 and I don't know what a Yeezy is or if I'm even spelling it right lol

I really love your new vlog style of videos. This one made me laugh and I really needed it. It's also awesome so see you try inlines. I have all sorts of wheels now, artistic quads, moxi jacks, snow white inlines, aggressive inlines, trying to learn dancer longboard stuff. I feel the most confident on quads but its fun trying other stuff!

My dad is an amazing teacher and he reached me to roller skates I learned how to skate really fast

As a rollerblader this is the funniest thing I’ve seen today

Beautiful view... I have done them both. I like roller Blading more. The comfort of Rollerblading depends on the boot. I like a softer lightweight boot. Thanks for Sharing.

I want that shirt, Indie 😁 I keep checking the site for it. I skate both inline and quads. I prefer quads these days for sure 😃

I feel reminded of when I was riding horses which are very well trained and understand weight-shift cues, while others need strong leg-aids. Similarly, roller skates are so interesting to navigate because they react to any shifting of weight. Whenever I switch to blades (ice or inline) I miss that element. Back to quads again, I miss the speed. Let's take the best of both worlds.

Damn, I wish our roads are as safe as other countries. I live here in the Philippines and I'm really interested in rollerblading but if I do, I'll instantly die the moment I step onto the road 🤣

There’s something about you guys suffering trying to get good at these is just so *satisfying*

ive been rollerblading since I was 7, so its like second nature for me, but when I first tried out skates I was absolutely awful

I'll teach you girls to inline if you teach me to jam skate on quads 😂

I started on in-line and I found those easier. But I had already skied and figure skated for multiple years. I will say roller skating is a lot more fun

i've been inline skating for literally as long as i can remember, and just recently got a pair of quad skates and it makes me feel better better about how noobish i feel on quads seeing yall act the same way as i do but on inlines. which is not to say you're noobs, but that they're different skills sets and being good at one doesn't mean being good at the other ^^'

I'm also surprised that there's no heel-stop, which kind of makes more sense to me than toe-stop :D I rollerbladed as a kid, and tbh I felt more stable than on quads :D Because with rollerblades, you have a wheel in the front and in the back, so I feel like I have less chances to fall forwards or backwards (and in my mind, falling forwards like Pigeon described it would be really hard, because you can't turn your shoe that far to the front). I remember when I first tried quads, I fell on my back (bc I was used to stopping with my heel) and it hurt so much I couldn't speak. Now, about 26 years later, I started learning how to roller skate :D Where I live, there are barely any smooth surfaces to rollerblade (bc I feel like they're more about speed). So I decided to start roller skating, because I can do more in smaller spaces. Thank you for your vlog, it helps a lot!

When yall were talking about the raft, I felt so bad, I could only imagine the struggle! Looking into moxi skates, but my parents are hesitant, from the price and If i were to hurt my self , since I'm a cheerleader it would be hard on my body! In fact today I was supposed to go from cheerleading, but i went roller skating with friend a few days ago, and injured my knee very badly!😬😥 Still trying to convince!!

The look pigeon gave the camera when indy skated down the ramp, lol

I thought inline skate would of been just as simple as roller skates so I bought inline speed skates and I'm learning how to use them

Them saying they have to lift their feet up to turn me who just went onto a roller rink yesterday turning on a single foot-

I actually learned how to rollerblade before rollerskating which is crazy but I love both of them

Usually inline skates have a heel stop.

Those skates are SO CUTE. I tried learning to skate on quads when I was little and just never could do it. Don't know why. The minute I switched to rollerblades I could finally skate and still use them to this day.

You should do more rollerblading videos! I love you guys but put both skates and blades into videos!

i bought my fist par of skates because of your videos!! since i got them 3 weeks ago i’ve been skating everyday! thank you so much for your videos!!

I (currently 20 almost 21) started rollerblading when my oldest brother gave me some blades that didn't fit his gf(at the time) and so since I was younger I rollerbladed and 1 month ago I got blades and oh boy was I missing out. It's soooo much easier but I will always stay with my blades. But I will add that I busted my shit on the skates quite a few times lol

Ahhhh those inlines are so cute and stylish! (I haven't even watched the vid, but I've been ogling over the rollerblades since the preview you posted earlier!)

Watching this with my Depression and the Break up with my boyfriend in the Last two days.. this Video make me Smile.. Thank u🧡 I needed this positive vibes

I'd love if you did a comparison between these and roller skis!

Aah I can't wait that snow melts and spring comes so I can try rollerblading again after like.. 10years😌🥰

can you do a review of the inlines more so than inline vs quad as in on this brand of the impalas

Out of curiosity, the last time I checked, the Impala Inlines came with a brake you could add to the back of the skate. Was there a reason you didn't use it?

I used to skate with in lines but I honestly just switched cause I thought they looks ugly lol

I used to be so jealous because I felt so lame only being able to ride inline skates, and not be able to ride the quads. I just bought my first pair of quad skates, so here's to new hobbies. 💜

Lmao 😂 Watching y’all try to carve then quit to side step had me

The frames are called snow white frames. I cant skate inlines but when i master roller skates, imma get moxi skate boots with 70stiff snow white frames Edit: moxi ice skates with a stiffness of 70

So reading the comments I realized that I am not alone. A lot of others who only do inline or only learned to do inline find it really hard to learn how to roller skate with regular skates. I wonder if regular skates are actually harder to use because in the video it really didn't take long for them to figure it out whereas I don't even know how to move forward on roller skates. Or maybe they're just quick learners.

Imagine skateboarding on that pavement :O

I'm switching from inline to roller skates and it has been hard for me. I grew up figure skating so it felt more natural. But my inlines are in GA and I can't go them because of the pandemic. So figured I'd try something new.

I only learned in line skating so what you call roller blading, there are in line skates that have A stopper on the heel. I've only ever owned in line skates that had the stopper on the heel. Personally, I've always preferred inline skating as I'm terrible at roller skating in quad skates. But let's also state I love Ice skating, and just like how with inline skates they both have a straight line for where the contact point between this skate add the surface beneath it. So in line skates the wheels go in a straight line and then they contact with the floor, but with ice skates, the blades in a straight line and contact with the ice.

I recently bought inline and they were surprisingly easy you see I grew up in skating my parents did it and both my older sisters but they only did quad so I tried inline and I love both!

I'm an inline skater my whole life and just started quad skating so this is funny 😅

When you grew up with the lines instead of the quads, and now you’re starting to transition ;-;

When going down the rail or stairs you can sidestep so that the wheels are parallel or smt to the edge of the stairs or ground. It's quite safe if you do it slowly and correctly

I am going down a line and like all of your posts and videos , just because I love you guys and you are deserve the boost after all unfair comments on FB !

I found my mom’s childhood rollerblades, and I think im gonna stay with my roller skates 😬😅

You’re literally so underrated

5:57 she turns effortlessly after they talked about thinking you had to pick up your feet lol

Going from ice hockey skates to inlines was utterly terrifying until I found out about rockering (roughly - putting smaller wheels in a couple of positions). Helps enormously with feeling like there are edges and that you can lean to turn

I just want to say I LOVE pigeon’s name! I wish I had it!

It hurts my soul to see them pick up their feet to turn XP

11:52 You can get artistic inline frames as well. I'm gonna be getting a set soon with an Edea Overture boot and Snow White frames, and because they're meant for artistic skating, they have toe picks on the front Edit: And then you immediately mention Snow White frames XD

I'm in love with these inline skates!

going down ramps or steep inclines it's so easy to just carve back and forth like you are on ice skates to slow down or control the descent.

I used to love rollerblading when I was a kid! I sadly outgrew my blades and after the skating rink in my town closed I lost most of my skating skills. Can't wait for my new rollerskates to arrive so I can start fresh!

I'd been skating on quads forever, but I can't skate on inlines for whatever reason. Last time I used inlines I went too fast and ended up somersaulting onto someone's lawn to slow down. :D
