@pwilll Жыл бұрын
One thing I found really helped me make my crossovers feel more natural once I was able to just step one foot over the other was to focus less on the leg crossing over and instead think about pushing the other leg underneath me. So like if my right foot is crossing over and hovering in the air, instead of stepping forward onto it, I push my left foot more underneath me so that I naturally want to place my weight on the waiting right foot. Hope this helps anyone else learning!

@@Dirtydeborahharry If you have Skate Mates (or could rig one up) and a tripod with bendable legs, you could attach the camera to one of those and have him wheel it around while filming the "whole rink" but still being able to do the close-ups to focus on you and the movement. I got my tripod on Amazon for only around $15! The legs are kind of short on mine, but it works. Not the most expensive thing, yet it has saved me from a lot of - what would have been - shaky videos.

This is how it starts! LOL I'm in Ohio, though...but 3 of my girls and I go every Saturday at the very least (though it's not surprising to see us out there 3 or 4 times a week). They've started inviting friends - some who know how to skate, some who've only been on skates a handful of times, and some who've never been on ANY type of skate in their life. We've spent many sessions helping those less steady. I started posting on Facebook when I was going. Our little group used to take up a small booth (4 people per booth, just me and my girls) - now, with the girls' friends AND mine coming - we need at least 2 tables (6 per table)...if not 3! LOL An old friend came with me...all of twice, remembered how much she loved it and promptly ordered her own skates...a friend of hers started coming....and my "middle" child's boyfriend likes to come, so this past Saturday, he convinced his mom to come (old speed skater from back in the 80's, like me), now she's already looking into skates for BOTH of them. One weekend, we had around 22 people show up! It's addicting. :)

This video was recommended to me and I'm glad it was. Last Saturday I attempted to do crossovers after seeing people at the rink doing so with ease. I tried three times. The first time I didn't get it and was just wobbly, the second time I fell, and the third time I did it but was very close to falling. Tuesday of this week, this video was recommended to me. Today, I went to the rink and followed the suggestions of this video and I got it immediately. In fact, on my third attempt I felt it click and how comfortable you're supposed to feel while doing a crossover. Thank you for your clear instruction and breaking everything down.

That is awesome! I was a freestyle and figure skater along with being a fulltime rink rat. As former "real" skaters, we never lose the passion and joy. Please continue forward on this journey and use the knowledge you have and teach others :)

Very helpful! After 60+ years of skating (and pins and screws in the back), I have forgotten how to do the crossovers. I speed skate every week. This will help! Now I got to find the follow-up video you recommended!

Thank you Deb!! Started skating last Nov, 2023 after being off of skates for about 50 years. It was rough going. Your lessons on how to stand and balancing on one leg with and without skates I didn't think of. And I used to be in skate dance competition back in the 1950's. Thank you so much for your help. Oh, by the way, I just turned 83. The reason I'm rickety on my skates is because my right knee is minus some cartilage. I favored it for so many years not realizing my legs were getting weak. I didn't realize how weak til I tried to skate for the first in 50 years and I fell a couple of times that took 6 weeks to heal. But, I decided not to give up. You helped me realize I needed some learning tools. Thank you for showing me what to do. Don

Really love your videos. Startet skating a few months ago at the age of 46 and it often feels very scary. But I found a society of artistic roller skaters in my hometown. Although I learn much slower then all the kids I really enjoy it and your videos often help me for not asking to dumb questions ;-). Still working on my balance. But with your help I am sure, that I will improve soon! Thank you so much!

I started skating again in February and I’m finally feeling confident to enough to practice these. What a great video. Can you do one on the sexy walk, frontwards and backwards next? 🙏🏽♥️ 🛼
