I love that she is openly talking about sobriety and therapy. HUGE!! Skating is the only thing I've ever done that is 100% for me and i owe this happiness to Michelle and to that Bones video.

Skating saved my life and everything estro said was so SPOT ON. I’ve become sober recently and it’s given me so much clarity and adding that to the clarity that roller skating gives me has changed me completely. I’m also so glad someone finally talked about the narcissism in the community and the ulterior motives and clout chasing. Skate for therapy and love

Estro: “I don’t want to be bombarded with ads” KZfaq: *ad plays immediately* lol

I feel the exact same! I don’t feel good and then I realize I haven’t skated. I definitely feel like I need to skate to move energy, to stay on this earth, and to feel good. Well said Michelle!

I admire Estro so much; she is an inspiration. Much love to Estro Jen!

Thank you, Ricardo, for bringing Michelle's voice to us today. I was wondering what she was up to lately and concerned for her regarding change in the affiliation of her brand with the Long Beach shop. I am even more inspired, now, knowing she is a sober person like me! Keep on vlogging and skating!

Nice video! I agree I hate being bombarded by advertising, I prefer more rollerskating videos, and competition isn’t really that cool. It was because of estrogen and Indy jamma Jones rollerskating videos with the background music that got me inspired to start rollerskating and trying new stuff. I wish there was more

Thankyou for giving us skaters that are new to sobriety so much hope...skating has giving me an outlet to get out of my self and find happiness I sobriety...god bless lino and estro.. I needed to hear this.

She's a complete badass in every sense of the word! Skater who teaches others for free and is a pioneer in the world of a sport that despite being around for decades it is still largely underground. And she's sober too!! Super positive and I dig it! Thanks Michelle!

I love this! I started with roller derby but quickly realised that I liked skating more than derby. So I looked around online to see if any other women were doing other skate things and found the Bones video. And that started me off. I’m not the worlds fastest learner but skating gives me that liberating feeling that Michelle talks about. I love learning too and trying to overcome personal hurdles that get in the way of skating.

Haha, my two favorite KZfaq skating spheres collide! Love it. Both the Moxi skaters and Ricardo/Shoptask have been huge motivators for me.

What a beautiful person inside & out 💜

Michelle is awesome. I love how she expresses the feeling of what skating is! I hope she remembers me teaching her grapevine in Stratford, London a couple of years ago! See you at SkateLove!

Estro didn't mention what a big sweetheart she is, and always has been ❤️ Super talented and a nice person on top of it!!

We love you Michelle! :) Thank you for creating Moxi! I grew up roller skating using my mom's skates & now I feel like a community has started to develop around skating & that makes my heart happy

The bones video was the reason I started skating! Endlessly grateful

I love your clarity and sense of purpose! Go! Go! Go!

That ending was perfect! "How old am i?", ending 😂

So awesome, I needed to hear this

Thank you for making this!

Thank you for this 🙏🏼

I love skating with rollerskaters, here in Jax FL there’s a group of rollers that I’ll sometimes see at the skateparks and it adds a different flavor and freshens up the jam when we skate together and I enjoy that very much. 🤘🏼cheers to all you rollerskaters especially the chicks in bowls for their style and energy 🔥💪

this is amazing, great work from you both ricardo and michelle!

This is fantastic! She's a pioneer

congrats on your sobriety...as a skater as well i would like to see it be less stigmatized for men. Men tend to shame other males who pout on quads in my experience and its bullshit

Super inspiring insight into a master of their human movement device. Thank you Lino and Michelle.

I'm 13, she has been my inspiration sence 9 years old. The moxie skate team got me going, pigeon and indy git me up off my bruised butt every time and estro reminds me I'm not alone in my skating journey. In eternally greatful for estrogen, I wouldn't be who I am without her

Yaaassssssaaaa!! I was so meant to find this!! 🤩

Estro is such a huge inspiration to me, they have made me realize that in order to get better at skating I have to be fearless/ take lots of risks. Estro is such a powerful and strong human being and I’m so grateful for all they have done for roller skating and just in general💓 I love you estro!

Awesome! Thank you so much for sharing this. Love hearing your thoughts and background. I can relate sooooo hard on a lot of what you had to say. Come to New England this summah! Let’s shred! Keep up the good work and authenticity. Also, yoga fucking rules.

Grow, grow, grow. Keep the flow 😇

I WOULD LOVE TO SEE SKATE PARTS LIVE @ shops like skateboard shops have skate premieres for new videos. That’s what I wanna see in roller skating that’d be sick and a way to bring more skaters together!

Love the positive message! I've also done a lot of self reflection and right now I'm being much more inspired by roller skating that blading. The dancing and the different moves definitely widen my perspective! I'm glad we have leaders like Estrojen in the industry pushing and inspiring more ladies to roll. The more creativity and positive work being put in, the more we expand and reach new heights!! 🔥🔥🔥

Agree 100%. More skating less words. Love you! ❤

Thank you estro for your love for roller skate ❤️

You inspired me to buy my first skates. Hopefully Monday in the mail! Keep being great 🙂

I would love roller skates to be my "shoes of the future", but street skating or skating to commute around where I live is not great due to erratic and bumpy pavements. :( For a future with roller skates, pavements need to be skate-friendly, then I'd happily wear my skates all the time

would love to see an updated interview with estrojen!! things must have changed a bunch for them and for moxi after the big bump in interest in rollerskating during and post pandemic

I love her shes an inspiration, skatings coming back 2020

4.55 you dont want to compete with skaters, You enjoy skating, So You co-operate, with skaters = significant resonance with This. Love IT ! Totally and Specifically Agree !!! :) One Love ! peace. Love and Light. TO You MiChelle !

I'm scrolling through comments and finding repeats on the exact same sentiment I have about skating and Estrojen. Though not original, here's my two cents: practiced roller derby for a couple of years, loved the practice of learning skills on skates, but I could never say my heart was "into" the sport of roller derby. Then I bailed on derby. Shortly after purchasing my first pair of Moxi's, the Bones video came out. That RENEWED my interest and subsequent LOVE of rolling on pavement! I still play the Bones video on occasion to pump myself up before heading out on a roll. It's meditative, healing, and healthy! I do it foremost for myself, but Estrojen gets ALL my heart and credit for the inspiration. 😍 I luff you Estro!

I was riding my skateboard at a local park and these girls turned up on their rollerskates and the way they moved was free and elegant and just beautifull and it looked realy fun and the colours they inspired me

hell yes!!! i really wna gather all the rollerskaters in san antonio to make a huge street skate/park skate video! im even more inspired to do it now

It was cool to learn more about her. Rollerbladeing is lucky to have fabiola in are game. Keep up the good work lino. Bay fam🌉

In my opinion, Fabiola is right up there in legend status with the Yasutoko's

I skate as well, but only like 2 months every year. The weather here is so bad that we just can’t....

I bought my first pair of skates today! So excited for them to come in!

Thanks for this, Ricardo! Very insightful and very well-produced. Nice shot, good sound and the editing was on point. Maybe you should pursue the quad world a little more? Could be great for both worlds.

😮 when she said Fabiola... *Yay, another Fabi fan!!* 🤔... Then I started wondering.... 😶❓ 🤣 that ending, though, lol.

Great video, Lino! Thank you for this! @estrojen

She is an athletic, talented, straight forward thinking entrepeneur skater. Cool.

I align with her so much😭 love u Michelle!!

Thank you for being such a spearhead for roklers8rs and thank you for my dope moxi sk8s 😎

Skating got me off drugs! So I totally feel ya there girl! Michelle is a total bombshell!

I am a male, but you inspired me to get roller skating

Hehe, I had a pair of those spring-shoe things when I was a kid too - I think they were called "spring heel jacks" here in the UK (but don't quote me). They didn't last long, and I'm surprised I didn't break my ankles - just the sort of dangerous trash that kids got to play with in those days - it seems like a miracle any of us survived our childhood! XD

Nice!

Hi, I finally managed to get the right size of Moxi Pineapple Lollies! I absolutely love them. Could you help me cos they are brand new and the letters on the wheels are already fading away and the tongue tends to slip down on one side.. Do you have some hacks to prevent these to things to happen? I thought I could put some transparent polish nail on the letters to stop fading away ? But how to handle the tongue... Thank you!!

Love you, EstroJen. Thanks for sharing your skating and worldly wisdom. Let's add Fitness Skating to all the options open to all of us.

“The shoes of the future…” SHE IS WONDERFUL.

We girls and women should focus on bringing each other further than focusing on men 💯💯💯💪

These a neural connection to skating. Whether it be on a boat or roller skates/blades

Da queeeeeeen! 🙌🏼

Also side note to everyone: estro goes by they/them! 💕💕💕

I love skating and music, and the sun rollerskate (or rollerblade or skateboard-I do all three).

RollerDerby s 2000 my first inline skates :) '90

We need a massive gathering of skaters when the quarantine is over. Bill Stoppard said about as much for the Toronto area. I know if anyone can get that done, Ricardo can. Surely someone will fund it...

I also like to skate for fun and fitness I’ll try to do some video and start my own crew and have skate names but just for fun. I m 47 and I want to skate until I die

She was so right that roller skating is growing so big!

Thank you for the interview! my girlfriend skates Moxies❤

I like the idea if shameless skating. Im 15 and ive been skating for a year and a half after i got my own skates because i got inspired by roller derby, planet roller skate and moxi. Today i had a job interview at 5 and no way to go from school to home then to the interview so i empty out my back pack and only put the papers and books i need and my skates in my backpack. I skated from 2:30 to 6:00 today. I went to my job interview like that because i gave my shoes to my boyfriend to hold on to and we left them at his house on accident. I went to the grocery store and the post office and acted like i belonged because being on wheels flying through downtown and modestly but confident in a krogers on my skates feels right. It felt awkward at first going into a post office -a place that is so professional and public- on rollerskates but why should anyone else care about something i know is good for me. I love the freedom of my skates and the shamlessness of me being in public on wheels doung regular things that are done in foot.

Lol!!! Funny. I love skateboarding too, but not great. Roller skating is my jam

An Amazing Woman that does what is Humanly Skatable! Love You EstroJenn!

I found my dad's nunchucks. I should have kept them because he chucked 'em.

Roller skating is very interesting across both genders. As a male I've experienced the reverse judgment. I grew up in an era where boys weren't allowed to figure skate or quad skate without being judged. If a boy falls, they too are called derogatory names. I think most boys just learn to let it slide off their backs. I've heard other boys cursing like sailors, so I think boys in general are conditioned to not give a shit, when we're called derogatory names, which leads to toxic masculinity, until we find our mate in life, to set us straight. Just the other day, I've been getting the entire family into quad skating. Some juvenile delinquents rolled by on their bikes, and said, that looks gay, as if we even asked for their opinion. It kind of offended me. I saw my son just allow it to roll off his back. I was more pissed, because as a father, you want to protect your child from this bull shit. I also hear Pigeon, EstroJen, Rebel and shove saying, "are you skating for others, or are you skating for yourself?" And it allows me to not be as angry, and be proud that I'm raising my child to be a stronger person. So, it really does go both ways.

Oh I forgot to mention that my family own 2 moxi pairs

Shout out Fabiola, EstroJen, Ricardo and yourself🙌

Ricardo, you have skated this style of skating and make it look fun too. Is it harder or just different? I see more and more people coming to skate parks on these type of skates, could the past be the future? It does look fun mind.

I'd be willing to do videos and inspire my community in the town I live but I'm not that good yet😅😅😅 eventually I'll get better with practice💯💯💪 BTW she is fucken awesome 😍😍😍😍❤

Little did she know that boom would soon come up that summer

It's funny how she talks about "other peoples" tutorial videos in youtube and she's doing exactly the same 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Omg...I'm taking her classes at home!! I did not know she was that nice...shame on me....

Just wish they made bigger sizes. Dont wanna pay all the extra money to get a set that fits me. There are loads of us 6ft tall plus girls will big feet.

Urban is life......🇧🇷😍

I SERIOUSLY CANT WAIT UNTIL I HAVE THE MONEY FOR MY SKATES. 60$/400$ FOR THE SKATES AND SAFTEY !!

My research says she is 36-years old.

I like watching girls skate!

So... how old is she?

More video projects you say? Bet.

Who is she?!?! BITCH she’s my idol. If I ever met her I’d literally start crying and then hug tf out of jer

Dont you just hate it when your girl friend has your top on .x

I make skate videos

Being Nonbinary, i really respect Michelle. Shes absolutely someone to look up to
