This film style has gotten absolutely ridiculous, amazing, love the fish eye lens effects and filming right on the floor to up above Wow! What a treat this is the best one yet. They were always good but now it’s pushed the limits of what is possible lol. Plus keeping the camera still while filming backwards and forward all around gee this takes takes the cake. I don’t comment on the videos much but this has gotten impressive, blown away keep up the great work. Guess I will have to get to this rink so many excellent skaters, you guys all rock!
You pretty much said all of what I was thinking! Plus The guy in the ripped jeans and the backward skating!!! Loved the energy💖You all skate like I dream of doing lolol..can't wait to watch more!
I’ve just ordered my skates at 49 I cannot wait it feels like Xmas ❤ I had the worst 3 years in my life . I adore skating as a teenager so I’m gonna start again 😂
Damn!!! I strapped on my first set of quads in 1974… worked as a floor guard for 8 years and when I wasn’t working there I was playing there… everyone is still like family… been living the quad life ever since, time permitting… About 9 years ago I discovered the adult retro nights and started skating on a regular basis… broke my femur 5 years ago (not skating) and after three surgeries including a hip replacement I am jammin out again to the 70s and 80s old school Funk and R&B… Your videos are awesome!! Dying to know how you are filming this… Makes me want to skate every day and makes me want to catch a plane and come skate with you! SO many good hearts in skating! Including my first boss of my first job ever at the Rollerdrome in Madison Wisconsin… he steered me into and helped me earn enough to buy my first pair of skates which were Ridell 220 boots and Sure Grip Century plates… I’m still skating them today after 48 years the leather is finally failing… I’m going to hang them on the wall and buy new… At 62, I hope I have a few good years of skating left!! So for all the old farts out there like me… GO FOR IT… I’m all smiles baby!! Keep On Skatin ❤❤
Will reach 62 this year. Have never skated before but at this moment, I've got a brand new pair of VNLA Freestyle Sunlite Fugitives waiting on any weather over 65 degrees to go out and begin to enjoy skating. And yeah, this video was awesome Roller King Once. Great people, great rink, great camara work. Keep Rolling.
@@michaelguzman7363 Just going to say... If you are just starting and you're 62, PLEASE get safety gear... Especially outside! Helmet, wrist guards, elbow and knee pads... You will thank me later... As a very experienced skater, whenever I skated outside I still wore safety gear.
I'm half white - so I can say this!! When white folks let their guard down.....They have JUST AS MUCH "flava" as any other race out there!! 🙌💯💪💪💪💪 This whole video is a complete VIBE!!! ❤❤ LOVE IT!!! 😊😊
I remember skating from my teen years back in the 70's. It didn't look anything like this. The energy, everyone dancing, rhythm, happy faces and lines of ppl in synch with each other. Not sure what qualifies as "shuffle", but I love the energy and the feel of this. I remember skating on a Saturday or Sunday session, music blasting, going a million miles an hour (in my head), but it did not have this energy. This makes me want to skate again at almost 60 years old; although, I think falling would hurt far worse and for a longer period of time this time around. Had no clue this existed. Love it. Love the music. Love seeing some of the same skaters in each video. The world needs more activities like this. Maybe we should get a few politicians on a pair of skates? Lol.
Same here, but in the 60s. I loved it but it wasn't like this - more about going fast, skating backwards and doing spins. Wish I could do it again but oh my back.
What’s old is “New”. Just ABSOLUTELY Amazed Skating is coming back. It’s been close to 5 Decades now for me since I had a pair on. Enjoy because we Certainly did.
Yea miss them days …..been 36yrs had a great time hanging out we had great times and this dam video reminded me how bad I miss it…… but handicapped now can’t do it
I have watched this video at least 30 times !!! And will watch it more :). Everyone is having fun and having a blast . Great camera work and music. Lady in Pink is a real talent and is having so much fun, do not ever stop ! Please do not ever stop posting videos like this with the great quality and style, and showing people having so much fun. I am glad there are still roller rinks like this around.
Just found your channel, it put a big smile on my face! The last time I had a my skates on was almost 45 years ago. I think in was in my mid 20’s. Everyone looks like they are having a great time. Sure wish we had a rink near my area, would love to skate again! Keep the videos coming, sure brings back some wonderful memories of all the fun I had in my younger years. The new cameras add a perspective of skating I never saw before. Very kool video!! 😊😊😊
Get some! After over 40 years, I got a pair, found a rink near me that does an “old school” adults only on Mondays, and that’s my Cardio for the day. It comes back, and is just as much fun as you remember.😊
@@adventurefuel5172 Thanks, I did find a rink near me but no Adults Only Night, but I am going to try it on a weekday evening and see how it goes. I may even buy my own skates again. I can't wait to hit the wood again. I'm sure I will have a blast!!! Thanks. 😁😁🛼🛼
I couldn't agree more David ! Just found this today and boy does it bring back some great memories of Fri. & Sat. nights at the local skating rink from about 35 years ago for me. Skating to all the great high energy music hits like Michael Jackson, ABBA, La Chic, Rod Stewart, BEE GEE's and everyone else ! Man, what great times for about $20. Enough for a burger, fries and a coke and a rental pair of skates. The rotating disco ball, the black lights, the flashing strobe lights, the couples skate, the d.j. taking song requests, hanging out with your friends, just all of it! I watch this video and I'm there reliving those great times !
This is so inspirational!! I am finally comfortable and fluid with my crossovers and have been practicing shuffle skating. I'm not the best at it but it is the most freeing feeling ever!
I am blown away. Just watched several of these skating videos and am totally amazed. These skaters are absolutely wonderful and so talented. Love it!!❤😂
Wow!!! Hey from South Africa. So nice. Brings back so many memories. Use to skate like this with my late brother in the late 80's. Miss him so much when I see this.
WOW! This really brings back the memories. I loved the adrenaline rush especially going to a new rink. I started skating seriously in my early 20's, went to the rink 2-3 times/week. Often skated at two different rinks in one night as there was a late night skate an hour away. We had a sync team of 6 that had a routine and basically we cleared the rink when we skated. I never got into speed skating but the speed that we went around the rink definitely left everyone else behind. I also loved to do the national dance skating. Never competed! Probably broke my coccyx more times that I could count. I, mostly, skated backwards as going forwards was too boring, We did shuffle skating too. This vid rocks. I had to give up skating when I developed arthritis in my 30's. My skating days were my most healthiest days of my life.
So cool to see people entertained by something other than the damn phones!!! Absolutely awesome to see people from all walks of life having a blast!!! Keep it up!!!
Basically born on skates, my parents and aunts and uncles would all go skating. While growing up with my cousins on skates. My dad met my mom at the roller rink. Now I'm the OG. Can't skate anymore. Can't risk falling. Rock on everyone. 🤘
I feel absolutely robbed that I didnt know about this entire skate culture until this last year. Yall having so much freaking fun out there! I just got back on skates for the first time in like 15+ years and Im absolutely in love. Im in awe of how many people come out, the only rink I ever went to was when I was a kid there was never more than like 10 people. I feel like i would crash into so many people 😅 Great video! Great song!
Your whole crew are amazing!! I've been practicing and learning the different shuffle moves outdoors and can't wait to hit the rink one of these nights. Keep the great videos coming. Thank you!!
At the risk of repeating myself and others, once again the person behind the camera has to be the best skater! Were any of the people holding phones and such devices recording for this channel? Any chance we will ever get to see THE ROLLER KING or did we and we don't realize it? The dancing on this one was not so creative but the speed and fluidity of motion were amazing! Oddly relaxing. The guy wearing the in-line skates (black t-shirt, tan coloured pants) was absolutely slick! Loved the music. Keep 'em coming!
The guy wearing the inline skates is Roller King Once.. LOL. that's me!! I am doing all the recording except when I let others hold the camera in selfie mode. once upon a time... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uFkDLeqwh6k.html
Thanking you guys for sharing your get togethers. It inspired me to get back to many things that I love, including skating. Ohhhhhh the joy it brings!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Absolutely love skating! My mama worked as an assistant manager in Hot Wheels Arena in Greeneville Tenn back in the 70s and we went every weekend. I'm still challenged by shuffle skating not sure why? I get the moves but start slowing down, need to find a video lesson. I need to find a skating rink I can go to even if I have to drive a bit. Absolutely love it and I'm 57 🥰💯🛼🛼❤️ thanks for great videos 🥰👍
Use to teach it, do it, and lived it. Carried my skates wIth Kriptonic wheels in my car everywhere. No rink, road, or path was safe the good old days before my knees left me Good Times , Great Memories and Better Music.😂
I need to build my confidence skating. I'm always so freaked out about people rolling in front of me or kids coming out of nowhere. I haven't mastered the swoop around people method😂 I just tense up like "Oh no here we go!"
LOL...I did this 44 years ago to "rock & roll"...every Saturday nite....had a blast! Graduated rink skating to bladding with poles with carbide tips practicing for Tele skiing.
Beautiful rink, awesome group of skaters, AMAZING video, & put to one of the greatest skating songs too? How did I hit the skating jackpot?!💜 I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but this is taking me back 40+ years! We were skating like this in 80’s & at 52 now (feeling younger than 25), I’m itching to skate so badly! To see everyone flying around the floor & doing the moves too brings me such joy! This kind of skating has slowed way down in Michigan, but these are my soul-skater peeps! Where is this rink? I wanna go! For those of us left, my old crew doesn't skate anymore except for the reunion skates. I miss it terribly! I have skated since I was 18 months old… my ONE perk of having teenage parents. I stopped skating 4 times a week, sometimes more, when I found out I was pregnant with my first child, but after my 4 were old enough, we skated weekly for a time. They took to it like ducks to water. That's probably because I met their dad, a national speedskating champion, at skating. He can skate really fast in a circle, but he couldn’t skate full speed AND do all the routines too even though he tried once we started dating. He’s always been a little miffed over that fact too. LOL! I had to put my skates away for a 10 year battle for my life, but it's time to go again! Thanks for the killer inspiration! Looking forward to more videos!😽💋 P.S. Even though I’m happy to have my life experiences pre-internet/technology so my point of reference was not through a cellphone/video recording device, I sometimes do wish we had this technology back in the day so I could show my kids & now the world through RU-vid just how huge our regular skating group was & how fast/in synch we were in rinks so packed that we would literally have to jump over skaters who would fall so we didn't end up falling too. Those were the days! And, just like having children, it's over way too fast! Thanks, again for an AWESOME video!💜💜💜
To my everlasting regret, I never learned to skate.😒😒 This was amazing though. This Michael Jackson remix is dope. It's good to see people having fun instead of being at each other's throat.
I attend many a kid birthday parties at the nicest rink in town. When I go, I’m 68, I put on my inline skates and tear it up. Im a bit surprised at how few in-line skates are out there. They are super fast skates with the right bearings. As a kid in the 60’s my neighbor owned a rink about 1/2 mi away. Every Saturday I would be there all day long.
My daughter is only 10 she loves watching the videos. She asked me to find all the videos that has the girl with the pink jam skates on, my daughter says she wants to learn how to skate like that so she can have that much fun too.
I just found your channel. I was listening to Pet Shop Boys. West End Girls. Every time I hear that sound. I think if Roller Skating. I miss being able to go skate. I Great video.
Lol, I said the same thing. The moves are in me 100%, I can feel how to do it. However my hips and knees are giving me the finger, so I am sure the actual performance will suck.
Wow, this is great, I am going to have to take a trip up there, just looked it up, Monday nite is adult skate ! We skate in Central Florida but travel occasionally. You are great ! looking forward to "trying" to keep up with you !
WOW! Talk about massive throwback time! I was doing all of that back in the 70's and 80's! I remember the excitement when my mom would let me go roller skating, renting skates, getting them on my feet was a bit of a hassle, and the music was GREAT. I recall the rush of getting out on the floor without getting run over by the speeders who stuck to the walls, then I was with them, speeding, shuffling, turning around, bouncing, and they were copying me and I was suddenly part of a whole herd of speed-shuffling skaters. It felt like flying. Blisters never mattered. What a time! THANK YOU FOR THIS!
I’m a happy guy but my nickname wasn’t smiley. I’ve maybe caught myself blissfully grinning twice in the past several years. I’m grinning like at loon at every one of these skating vids. I turn 70 in a few months and I picked up my new pair of skates this morning!
this is so much fun even to just watch Are there any tv shows like legendary that does this type of skating as a competition ? If not i reckon it would be huge Reminds me of that awesome film ROll Bounce Great video !!!! Im getting some skates Pronto !!! Who did the MJ remix used in this video ?
