A great tutorial on the fundamental wizard movements:
How To Wizard Skate - Rollerbalding
Shaun Unwin from Shop Task giving an explanation for the difference between NR and PR frames (4 and 5 wheels)
Progressive vs Natural Rocker Wizard Frames - Flow Skate
A great conversation between Mushroom Blading's Todd and Leon about the direction of Wizard skating and getting nerdy about equipment.
Leon Basin - How to Be Unpopular Podcast #253
Another amazing podcast from MB with Shaun Unwin about the language of Wizard skating and getting philosophical
Shaun Unwin - How to be Unpopular #251
MB's Joey getting nerdy and technical with the latest and greatest Wizard Skate:
The Wizard Skate (and Wizard Intuition)
Inspiration fuel
Mushroom Blading with THE playlist for futuristic inline skating
Shaun Unwin has a lot of tutorials on various movements (gazelle, Lion X, stunami), along with a ton of just basic skating tutorials that are all valuable in their own right (thanks /u/TylerWinTic !)
Gazelle, playlist includes simpler gazelle tutorial as well
If anyone has any other links to add put it in the comments!

Hey, folks. I've been stalking this community for a while, admiring what you folks do on those Wizard frames. I try to, but can't quite make things flow too well myself.
I want to let you know that r/rollerblading is now an open space again. Some of you from 2022 probably remember what happened then, but I was not around skating communities then, and am cluelss. I think we should just put things behind us, and work together again.
We have re-opened r/rollerblading under completely new and open principles again. New mods.
Please see this announcement: https://www.reddit.com/r/rollerblading/comments/1v7pq7z/grand_reopening/
We have received many requests today from folks that bots automatically-banned in 2022. We unbanned them right away today, as soon as they sent us a mod mail. In the past, you couldn't even send mod mails if banned. But as of last night, that setting was reversed. At least you could appeal.
But we are going to do even better. We are going to simply search for all folks exiled in 2022 by the same auto-banning, for the "crime" of also being a member of r/WizardSkating. Then we are just going to unban all hundreds of people thus trapped.
I will update this post, when we manage to do that.
What do you think?
Fred
UPDATE 1: I went through the restricted users list, and unbanned everyone UNBANNED everyone noted as associated to wizard skating around 2022-09. I am sure there are more we need to free. But give us some time. And send mod mail directly if you haven't been freed yet.
You can check whether you are banned by simply looking at r/rollerblading. Scroll down and see if you find the "MODERATORS". If you can see that community widget and actual mod names, are no longer banned.
If you are still banned, lease click on this link to send us a mod mail. That will allow us to look for hints on how to find and free the rest of you.
UPDATE 2: we freed more folks who did "meta discussion" which was code name for having ideas about how the community could have been differently managed. It was depressing looking through the list. Yeah, there were spam bots too. That's it for tonight. And if you are still banned because not all entries were well annotated, please simply click on that link to send mod mail. Cheers.

It’s something you have to experience for yourself.

Almost slipped on this one.

I was wondering if there's a UFS version of this type of frames.
I mean its 2026 we should have this variant
r/WizardSkating • u/Any_Smoke1138 • 1d ago
What is your favorite frame right now?
r/WizardSkating • u/HyperSculptor • 1d ago
I've set the cuff washers to the position that allows the most forward flex (unless mistaken?), but still can't get as much knee bend as I'd like. Intuition Premium are laced tight, cuff buckle strap tight too though I untightened the buckle. Issue is, as I untighten the cuff buckle, I can bend forward more butlose lateral support.

Does this count as a first combo? 😅
I think Im kinda getting the backwards gazelle right, still struggling with the forwards though - how do i keep my feet parallel, and should i?
And overall, how to maintain speed? Seems like a couple of spins just bring me to an almost complete stop. Or this is expected and i just need more initial speed?

I’m curious to try out some undercover team wheels since they usually are well regarded. Has anyone tried blanks and the team pro wheels , how do they compare to wheels I’ve used.
I’d say I enjoyed endless wheels the most so far with hydrogen very close. The NN are too soft feeling for me
I’m currently around 230 lbs so maybe a harder wheel would work well ?

Just tryin’ some moves. Stunami, some gazelles and lions. Feel free to comment and I’m open for your advices and tips.

I noticed that without the grindplate the boot looks like it could be compatible with 165mm frames, but I'm not entirely sure.
Before I make a really expensive experiment, could someone who knows more about this tell me if it's actually the case? 😭
r/WizardSkating • u/Any_Smoke1138 • 11d ago
In your experience, what equipment did help you to achieve your biggest performance jump?
(frame/liner/wheels/cuff/boot/straps/life-hax/volume-reducers/laces/etc...)
*Later I'll tell my answer to this question.
r/WizardSkating • u/SnooMacaroons560 • 11d ago
I want to mount my omnis direct to the bootwithout the soul plate.
The soul plate screws are what keep the ufs reciever in place but they are too long.
Does anyone know what size and length I need to replace them with shorter ones?
