Anyone ever just sit down and write out a little bit about all the different rhythm skate styles? I did 😂 I will put some here and please join in and add things that I have missed! NY/NY - seems based in house music. Lots of pivots, trains and trios, figure 8’s, footwork on the 2,4,6 and 8 beat. Chicago- JB or James Brown. Footwork. Four corners, Big Wheel, Buckey Walk. ATL - real swaggy, ryding. Leg crossing, claps and stomps on the beat. Seems faster than the other rhythm styles except for …. Philly - Fast backwards looking over their left shoulder is their claim to fame. Cleveland - jumps! Stomping on beat (literally mesmerizing), group skating. Striding. Detroit - high kicks, intricate footwork using their toe stops, group formations. Cali - LA based. Sliding on fibers. Smooth. I like how they customize dress shoes into skates. St Louis - couple and ballroom skating. G slide DMV area - snappin. 180 degree pivots on one leg. Footwork. Like how there is someone else skating with them to support the “snap”. What’s your favorite style???

Ordered new skates about a month ago and they arrived wayyyyy earlier than expected. Beyond happy with the design and feel. Can’t wait to take my skating to the next level. On my way to the rink right now 🥳🥳🥳

Hello everyone's am new here

Hi everyone...I'm going to practice at home since it's cold out. What should I work on?

Yall I paid the wood tax last week. I been trying to learn how to do turns both ways in traffic. Cuz just doing moves off on the practice side isn’t gonna cut it. Well..I did one and actually stuck it but then fell down anyway LOL! My coach was like “what happened? You had it and were going straight”. Idk I think I just got nervous. But now I’m not nervous anymore 😂 He told me that he is happy that I’m progressing to doing other things and one guy gave me a high five. Seriously though, I think the fall almost unlocked something in me. I’ll be back at it today.
