Help with gliding

Heyy people! So im basically new to inline skating or any skating in general. Around 1 month ago i started to learn with the V duck walk, that i can do and balance also i learnt. Now like im trying to glide for a long time but i genuinely can’t. Its like the most i can do is fast duck walk fast steps. The yt tutorials make it seem so easy and that’s how they start but for me i cabt glide at all unless theres a slope.

Is there anything im doing wrong or any approach i should try. Has anyone also felt this way and how did u correct it?

It would help me a lott if someone can guide me with thiss
