I love to hear that my video helped you!

That is great to hear. Thank you. I haven’t released a video in a while, but I am working on some new stuff. I hope you continue to find value in this channel.

#becauseonedayitmaymatter :)

You know, I have to give some credit to the camera for motivating me. The way I just popped right up, kept skating, and even landed my trick afterwards despite my fear? Yeah, I was playing cool for the camera. I’m pretty sure that I would have called it a day if not for that, lol.

Very true

Yes indeed.

Thanks. I had to take some time off for a couple months, but I am, G-d willing, starting up again soon.

@@baertheblader9402 🙏🏽🤞🏽

Please come back and let me know if you land it. I’m rooting for you.

Checking in on you, Pawketz. Have you landed the frontside stall yet?

@@baertheblader9402 I did it! Thanks for remembering! I just posted a quick video of the first one I landed that day! Your chest behind the line tip helped me get over my overshooting the coping. My next hurdle became the fear of letting gravity take me backwards off the coping naturally. I intrinsically kept trying to jump off the ramp a bit as I went down but it caused me to fall forwards like the first attempt in my video. Once I got over the fear of rolling backward using gravity it was very success! The next goal is backside stalls!

@@Pawketz just watched. Great Job!

At least.

Oh yeah, that helmet was a lifesaver. Thank G-D I walked away from that without a scratch.

@@baertheblader9402 big facts. Thank god u are ok!

Smart

I did replace that helmet right after this with a really nice, thick one from S1. It admittedly shook me up pretty good. If I didn’t have the pressure of making the video, I don’t know if I would have gotten back up and landed the trick right after, but I am glad I did. I haven’t skated in over a year now due to knee issues and then the summer heat, but suddenly these video are getting comments again and I am thinking of getting out there again.

Yes, it can be. That’s why I never skate without my pads. My new helmet is also much better than the one I’m wearing in this video. I now use S1. It’s just way more padded.

I have wide feet. Lengthwise, I am probably closer to an 11 US Men’s, but I generally wear 11.5. My skates are the 11-12 shell Aeons with Reign V3 liners.

@@baertheblader9402 thanks I wear a 13 in men's shoes so I was thinking of going with the 12.5 mesmer John Bolino skates

USD Aeon 60

@@baertheblader9402thank you, it’s a shame they don’t build a size 13

Thanks. I’m doing good. I bought myself an S1 helmet after this which you can see in my later videos. It’s a lot bulkier, but it is certified for multiple uses. I was lucky that I did not get a concussion or anything considering this was a non-certified helmet. Just a bit dazed.

Au contraire, I very much CAN fall. I do it all the time 😉. In fact, my T-Rex flexibility only aids me in achieving some of my most spectacular falls. Thanks for the feedback 😃👍.

@@baertheblader9402 dude its so weird cuz ur a bit better than me but you just look so funky while doin it like i can only do one grind but i can make it look good

@@zelt22 Hey, that’s ok. I know several skaters just like you who love doing the same trick over and over until it’s just right. Other skaters like to learn new tricks every session. Everyone has their own approach. Keep at it, and I am sure more tricks will come. I wouldn’t worry about it too much as long as you are out there having fun. Inline skating is a visual sport after all, so style can be just as important as technical skill. If you don’t mind me asking, which grind is it that you like to do?

Sometimes you just can't help how you fall. I've seen pros fall like this before.
