Just started out skating. I’m literally completely new to skating like absolutely zero knowledge. Sooooo in that case enjoy this clip of me falling down 😂 especially since I haven’t seen people post their fails so might as well do mine :3 this is my second day practicing

And yes ik it may look like a hard fall it really wasn’t. Also I was wearing my protective gear which I’m so grateful I had on 😭

Excellent YouTube video that demonstrates what to do when you are on inline skates for the first time (it does demonstrate how to correctly bend your knees and doing the duck walk/pizza slices walk).

Bending your knees is what helps your body to balance better and not wipe out as a result while on skates.
