How To: Inline skate for beginners

In this Outdoor Recreation video tutorial you will learn how to inline skate for beginners. Patrick Eaves, adventure sports guide and instructor, presents this video. First, you should have the right gear. Go to the local retail store or to a skating rink where you can take guidance from experts. Start off by practicing balancing on your legs. Legs should be shoulder length apart, knees slightly bent, body is bent a little forward and hands are in front of you. This is called the ready position. Practice baby steps by walking on your skates and taking support of a fence or something like that. Now do the forward glide. For this, put your skates at an outward angle, put all your weight on one leg and push so that the other leg will move forward. You can now watch the video for the full instructions.
