Learn How to Rollerblade! Kids Young and Old! Free Rollerblading Video Lessons
On a stage in 18th Century London, Britons watched rollerskating for the first recorded time in history; no one knows now who invented the skate but today roller skating is known throughout the world. Rollerblading or inline skating began in the 1960's and gained rapid popularity in the early nineties. Rollerblades allow for greater maneuverability than side by side roller skates and are not too difficult to learn to use.
Learn how to rollerblade from Adam Silverstein, inline skating instructor at Compo Beach Skate Park in Westport Connecticut. Adam has been teaching for more than three years and roller blading for more than seven and in this video series of inline skating lessons he demonstrates tips, and techniques including: how to properly fit your rollerblades, standing up in your rollerblades, balancing, pushing off, controlling speed, stopping, turning, the cross over turn, weaving through obstacles, skating backwards, skating backwards to forwards, jumping on and off an elevated surface, the one footed glide, and the bicycle move.
