Aggressive inline skating (referred to by participants as rollerblading, blading, skating, street skating, rolling, roller freestyle or freestyle rolling) is a sub discipline of inline skating in the action sports canon. Aggressive inline skates are specially modified to accommodate grinds and jumps. Aggressive skating can take place on found street obstacles or at skate parks.
In 1980, a group of ice hockey players in Minnesota were looking for a way to practice during the summer.[1] Scott and Brennan Olson formed the company Rollerblade, Inc., to sell skates with four polyurethane wheels arranged in a straight line on the bottom of a padded boot.[1] In 1988, Rollerblade introduced the first aggressive inline skate, the Rollerblade Lightning TRS. Aggressive inline skating developed as an organized sport in the early 1990s.[2] In 1994 the National Inline Skate Series, better known as NISS was launched as the first aggressive skating competition series. Promoters Rick Stark and Mark Billik sold Taco Bell on sponsoring the series for $150,000 and a six stop series was born. NISS, went strong for 5 years holding contests in Los Angeles, New York, Rome and Brazil. NISS was the first series to put aggressive inline on television with an ESPN deal for the 1994 series and later moving the competition series to PRIME TICKET-Fox Sports. The Aggressive Skaters Association (ASA) was formed by a number of aggressive inline skaters in 1995 as a forum to develop rules governing competitions and equipment.[2] The sport was included in the first ESPN X-Games in 1995 and included vertical ramp and street event competitions.[3] It reached its height in popularity in the late 90s, with mainstream movies like Disney's Brink! and other films. The brand "Senate", run by Arlo Eisenberg and several other prominent skaters, enjoyed mainstream popularity during the 1990s.
Founded by company owners/skating legends Brian Shima, Jon Julio, and Kato Mateu and supported by all major skate companies, the World Rolling Series (WRS) links together the best skaters, event organizers, retailers and skate parks and aims to "create a tighter knit community, increase overall awareness and set a higher standard for aggressive rollerblading." The WRS circuit started in 2009 with 10 established professional contests in France, Netherlands, England, Spain, Argentina, Australia and the United States. In 2012, WRS included 100+ amateurs and professional events in over 20 countries.[4]

@alexferrier5732 Год назад

Accurate summary. Another thing I would like to add in my experience as a free skater and agreessive skater, is to embrace the falls and learning how to fall to minimize damage. I have seen begginers trying to avoid a fall at all cost which often gives the opposite result and ends in a nasty uncontrolled fall. In some cases when you know you fucked up is better to just prepare and take the fall with technique and control with minimal damage. I feel like knowing how to fall is an underlooked part of the sport, but is an essential part of It, an important part.

@FernandoGraeff Год назад

I agree. Most of the people tend to be ashame of falling, then try to avoid it of any cost when, sometimes, it is better fall safely than try to save and fall wrong and injure yourself. A friend of mine told me once "if you are not falling in aggressive skating, you aren't learning anything", so, if falls are inevitable, learn how to fall.

@arodOTG Год назад

100% agree. I've avoided some really nasty injuries simply because I had technique and could influence my fall. An overlooked and underrated skill for sure 👌🏽

@apexpredator_jku Год назад

100% agree! Falling is a part of the game. No risk, no reward. Avoidance of falling at all costs is a detriment to progress.

@adeadlyfart13 Год назад

Totally, I certainly think in any extreme sport there is an art to falling. With inline skating I think it is even more imperative, as you can NOT bail from your skates as if you would with; a skateboard, bike, or scooter. With rollerblading or any kind of skating, you don't exactly have the option to "bail" and recover with your feet, only options are to use your body.

I did agressive inline for 3 or 4 years when younger and am now coming back at 34. I never rotated my knee like that in 90 degree grinds unless I want to do top grinds or was on round rails. I'm gonna try to incline my knee in flat surfaces to see the difference. Thank you!

@richskater Год назад

Try to be like McFly & Tri and slide your grinds to a stop, hold the balance as long as possible. It's usually disheartening when you don't have enough speed to make the obstacle, but it's a great test of balance, maybe carry a little less speed on purpose once in awhile.

@aldolega Год назад

@AtongAndal Год назад

On point! The learning how to roll is the best one! I've noticed few of the fella bladers here learned how to grind off the bat without fully mastering the roll. Thought they was way ahead than other beginners but the issue suddenly surfaced when learning new grinds which requires a good approach. Ended up realizing that it should have been started with the basics and there's no other way than that.

@busyboxst7 Год назад

3 thoughts, caveats. 1) Lean forward when very first beginning but at some point good style (and safer for your back) involves learning to “lean back” in a sense (namely do most of the squatting and shock absorbing with legs not hips! It’s kinda rookie style to land and bend at the hips as if trying to do a toe touch stretch. Really common thing to see and it makes people trip if leaned too far forward. But the other issue, besides back health and style, is leaning too far forward = knee falls. Knees break much easier than butts… won’t see many pros falling to knees unless they skate vert and wear knee pads always.. and by style I mean “good style” often involves someone looking relaxed almost as if walking (usually leaned back more than like a beginner at the roller rink… again, a matter of progression tho, depends how far along the skater is). 2) There are a few grinds I would actually say looking 100% behind you, opposite of where you’re grinding, actually makes the lock on work better and helps slide it longer. True spin mizu (spelling?) is a good example. But in general where you look also is affected by how you plan to spin out or land it I think. If you get too twisted around it can cause the grind to slip off early. 3) Just another thing I think can help, some tricks are much easier to learn to slide without falling off, or easier to learn good form by either landing fakie (backwsrds) (or in some cases by not coming out fakie). Example, royales and back royales will naturally get more perpendicular to the ledge if someone commits to finishing the rotation and landing backward. Backside farfs this really helps on. Front farfs might be the opposite tho, come out forward (but conversely gotta make sure the torqued foot isn’t almost fishbrain angle).

@jordanjoestar76 7 месяцев назад

First tip makes so much sense. No wonder I get slow down more than other skaters. I partly disagree with the foundation bc the very VERY basics of rollerblading are enough to do many tricks safely. I personally feel most of the intermediate stuff is really just for comfort/preference. GREAT TIPS OVERALL! 👏👏👏

@TheGingerBeef Год назад

The first tip is probably what I've been trying to figure out on ledges for a couple decades at least...Thanks!

@j4nk3n Год назад

It's kinda vital for ledge skating, if I get skates I haven't owned before I always put my soul on a ledge and lean my foot over and see how much I can lean over while still feeling stable, also for topsides I see how little I can get away with bending my knee while also not letting my wheels of my soul foot touch the ledge, because when I first started I had this self imposed rule in my head that topsides had to always be perfectly boot down 90° which isn't necessarily great for balance or your ankles

@tightpantsmachine Год назад

Also, (maybe not so much for round coping) leaning over on a 90 degree ledge will have less surface area contact, so you will slide even faster.

@Back2NatureZeroHero Год назад

Man I came across your channel right after I bought USD Sway Team 4 blades because I decided to start rollerblading again. I am over 40's and I don't want to stop again. I remember back in the good old days when we were skating there were an old man over 70's who was enjoying like crazy fitness skates. We called him the Yellow knight because his skates were yellow. Now I want to become the White knight with this Sway blades. 😁 Thanks for you inspirational videos. Don't give up the blading! 🙃

@arodOTG Год назад

"suscribirse", love it 😂 definitely a foundational list of mistakes I find to be common. One thing I still struggle with to THIS day is following through on my grinds..you hit it on the head, drive your knee OVER the obstacle and stay on TOP. Always look forward to your videos 🤙🏽

@shingweima Год назад

Definitely agree with learning to be a rollerblader first. I'm getting back into skating (like many mid/late-30s people) and I have to keep checking myself to wanting to learn grinding until I can master skating fakie, powerstop and jumping/landing. Would also add learning to fall/bail out of tricks.

@dos7956 Год назад

I look straight down to my feet while "grinding" andddd yes... i guess i need to trust my feet more

@busyboxst7 Год назад

Either look ahead like Ben said OR for some grinds, look behind (if your body is naturally positioned totally backward on the rail/ledge, sometimes looking backward actually works better in my opinion. Certain alley oop and blind tricks.. especially if spinning out. It’s both about you lean where you’re looking but also if you have to twist too much to look where you’re going it can cause you to slip off a grind.

@gwendallkessler840 Год назад

Okay, great vid and great recomandations, personally i would like to add one conseil : go step by step, i've seen a lot of skater that are really proud to do a complicated grind without even mastering the easiers, so not only they will have to go back to these simple grinds later but also their posture on the hardest grind are not so well because of a lack of experience on skates. It's normal to start by little tricks and it's only if you take some time to do them that you'll be able to progress someday.

Im back again, after 27 years, and I lean back instantly......😛🤣 Just sitting around and chilling my bu** wasnt the best warmup. Nice tips !! thank you but Since this is a video for the target group of beginners I miss the reference to protective equipment. I drive relatively safely, and years ago I also drove in the aggressive range But after a 27-year break, I recently ended up on the ground 4 times in the park. and it's not like it used to be, you feel like you're falling deeper, and above all you have to learn how to fall "correctly" again. What I want to say: You're bound to fall as a beginner, so you should wear protective gear.

@apexpredator_jku Год назад

Learning to roll 1st & foremost should definitely be #1. It's like learning to crawl before you walk. I've seen people pick up a new pair of blades who've never bladed a day in their life & they're watching TS Miz tutorials

@busyboxst7 Год назад

Super agree with the comment here about leaning how to fall well.. , practice falling is key especially if you’re older. I broke my hand, worst wreck ever, simply because my muscle memory was lax cause I hadn’t skated in a long time and I failed to simply put my hand parallel to the ground when I fell, like just fell too quickly and didn’t react fast enough. Painful mistake. Btw, wrist guards with plastic in the back are a bad idea (instead of getting a minor fracture in the wrist, it’s possible to snap your forearm instead or possibly hand bones (metacarpals). Wrist guards with slick plastic on the palm are also a dangerous idea. Somewhat grippy is safer. Can’t say how many times I’ve seen someone fall to their palms on a slick surface, hands slide out and they slam their face or head down.

@soyale360 Год назад

I hear people say "snap your forearm" a lot, but is there any evidence to support that other than anecdotal?

@busyboxst7 Год назад

@@soyale360 Conversely, is there any real reason to have the back splint in a wrist guard? What's it doing that's necessary? Have you ever fallen at an angle that the splint would protect you from something? ... Just thinking out loud. Doesn't seem that a wrist needs to be immobilized. Seems the greater need is for palm padding just to lessen impact.

@larryjonn9451 2 месяца назад

Any proof? Because I use wrist guards and I feel like they've saved me from breaking my wrists many times

@stephenhudson4526 2 месяца назад

Proof of the sliding out? Going to any wood made skate park for enough years is proof, people hitting their face or teeth is not entirely unheard of… As for the *back* brace in the wrist guard, what good does it do anyway? It’s not absorbing shock, all it does is immobilize your wrist more, but you’d have to have a freak accident fall or bizarre luck to need more than the front one. I think a wrap with padding in the palm is about as good as it gets unless you’re jumping insanely huge gaps then maybe you need something more - but if so, you’re probably not watching this video anyway or reading this comment.

@busyboxst7 Год назад

Oh, and wrist guards *can* be a mistake! Plastic splints in the back can take a minor fracture in the wrist to a snapped forearm (rare but it happens). More often tho, slick plastic on the palm side causes someone to slip out and smack their face or teeth, worse than just not having wrist guards. Point is ones that have some grip like normal skin are probably safer so you have some control when you fall and aren’t just sliding around uncontrollably.
