Discover practical tips and tricks to elevate your jam, rhythm, and roller skating, using a practical setup with a short grip boot, competitor seven plate, and star pro two wheels.
Keep In Step2:52
Keep in step guides skaters to rhythm and pace while skating solo or in groups. Use a steady right-left count to stay synchronized through spins, pauses, and turns.
Stops3:43
Master various stopping techniques to control speed, change direction, and switch moves, using toe and side stops to maintain balance and flow.

Side-to-side Push1:56
Learn to stop on both sides and add a side-to-side shuffle that crosses the feet, forming a combined stop-and-shuffle motion you practice.
Misdirection4:01
Explore misdirection in roller skating by weaving turns, circle skating, and direction changes to make the rhythm unpredictable while keeping forward and backward movements flowing.
Fakes4:08
Master fakes in roller skating by using misdirection and fluid body freezing to predict moves, add flavor, and keep rhythm while staying in step.
Spins4:38
Learn roller skating spins, including heel toe and top spins, with a strong core and balanced arms. Speed up by bringing hands together while keeping knees bent and torso steady.
Roll into Heel Spin2:40
Learn to roll on your heels and turn that position into a spin by pulling your skates and stepping out onto your heel, then control and exit the spin.
Smooth Walk Forward2:56
Learn a smooth forward walk on toe steps in roller skating set to slower music, mastering a creeping cross-foot pattern with a continuous roll forward.
Cool Walk Backward2:27
Master the cool walk backward on your skates by stepping back while rolling on your toes, swinging your arms, and relaxing between moves for smooth skating transitions.
Triangle Creep2:30
roller skating magic presents triangle creep, a rhythm-driven micro move that transforms footwork into a triangle of steps, weaving toes and heels through changing directions to the music.
Side Wheels Roll2:46
Master the side wheels roll, a basic move using fakes and misdirection to break up a routine. Glide on the side of your wheels and keep your skates straight.
Turns & Pivots3:29
Master turns and pivot turns in jam, rhythm, and New York–influenced skating by learning crossovers, toe-to-heel transitions, weight shifts, and controlled pivots to navigate circles.

The Sidewinder3:27
Taps3:12
Learn the heel-toe tap, a tap-dancing skating move that keeps you on beat with a one-two-three cadence, kick your knee up, and transition into a spin.
Heel Toe Rolls1:34
Learn how to perform huge toe rolls as an alternative to heel toe taps, using core balance to switch gears and add a new move to your skating arsenal.
The Roller Twist3:28
Explore the roller twist, a classic 1980s move inspired by New York skaters and Crown Kings, featuring a two-heel kick sequence left then right and a cross-back flow.
