Master these 3 Roller Skating Tricks
Roller skating is a great sport and hobby. It provides astonishing physical and mental health benefits! And you can easily amp up your roller-skating game with the following roller-skating tricks.
Here are 3 simple
roller-skating tricks you can learn this summer.
Roller Skates
Backward Skating
Practice makes
perfect and you too can learn to skate backward
with practice.
Begin at the wall
with your chest toward the ground. Tighten your abs and try to push off the
wall. Take small steps backward. Once you are comfortable with this step, push
off the wall again and take strides (not steps) backward. Let your hips help
you gain momentum. Once you are comfortable with this too, begin doing the same
without using the wall.
Jumping
Once you are skilled
in gliding and falling correctly, you can learn to jump. Take several powerful
glides to build the momentum. When you feel confident enough, bend your knees with
your feet close together. Push off the ground and jump straight up. Keep your
knees bent while coming back down for a correct landing. Continue gliding, when
you land. It not only makes you look super cool but also ensures a smooth
landing.
Spinning
Spinning while
skating is a super-impressive and fun trick. Begin by finding an open area
where others won’t bump into you. Take several gliding strides and act as if
you are making a tight turn. However, continue gliding while your skates are
turned instead of straightening out your roller skates. Pointing your feet
inward will help you stop when you want to.
Great skaters are
not born. It takes practice and perseverance to be one. So, grab your pair and
start developing these cool skills!
