Learn to skate with YouTube’s most experienced skate instructor and save yourself time & effort. Check the Free Lessons at https://skatefresh.comThis is a controversial topic removing the heel brake becomes the norm in inline skating (but the disadvantages of doing so for beginner skaters are really not worth it).Learn to use the heel brake correctly so you can stop anywhere, any time on your skates. NOTHING will create smooth and confident progress than having a reliable stop as a beginner.Beginners, you shouldn’t be doing crossovers yet, they are an intermediate level move. Get your A-frame turn, Parallel turns and maybe Lunge Turns happening BEFORE you get into the much riskier crossovers.Who is Asha Skatefresh?
