How to brake roller skates

The braking method of roller skates is as follows:

First, the "eight" stop method

After getting a certain forward sliding speed, stand with your feet parallel and apart, then press your feet to the ground with your toes inward, bend your legs, lean forward slightly, squat down your hips, stretch your arms forward to maintain balance, and then gradually slow down to a stop.

Practice method:

1. When sliding forward, stand with your feet parallel and apart. First turn your right toe inward, gently press the ground with the inner wheel, and move your body center of gravity slightly to the left, and complete the action according to the above posture.

2. On the basis of the above actions, practice according to the "eight" stop method of internal skill. The speed can be from slow to fast, step by step.

Second, the "T" stop method

When one foot begins to slide forward, after the floating foot is T-shaped at the heel of the sliding foot, slowly put the floating foot on the ground, and gently press the ground with the inner wheel to slow down the forward sliding speed until it stops.

Practice method:

1. Stand with your left foot in front and your right foot in a T-shape. Push the right foot on the ground with the inner wheel, slide the left foot forward, and then stop the right foot at the back of the left heel in a T shape. You can start slowly, so that you can experience the action.

2. On the basis of the above actions, accelerate the forward sliding speed and press "T" to stop the action practice.

Third, stop your feet.

When sliding forward, both feet turn sharply clockwise (or counterclockwise) at the same time, and the left foot and right foot press the ground at an angle of 90 degrees with the sliding direction. At the same time, the body turns sharply to the right, the center of gravity shifts to the right leg, the knees bend, and the arms extend forward to stop the body.

Practice method

1. Stand in the same place with your feet parallel and separated, practice in turn according to the above actions, and then complete the actions by sliding forward at a low speed.

2. Keep a certain forward sliding speed, slide your feet forward in parallel, and make an emergency stop with your feet. After mastering it skillfully, you can use your feet to stop at will.

Four, backward sliding stop method

The stopping method of backward sliding, because the front end of figure skating is equipped with a brake, can be stopped immediately as long as the heel is lifted and the ground is rubbed with the brake of the foot during backward sliding. When stopping, lean forward slightly and raise your arms to the side to maintain balance.

Practice method:

1, hold the railing or with the support of your partner, lift your heel in place, lean forward slightly, and stand with the brakes.

2. When slowly sliding backwards, stand with your feet sliding in parallel, then lift your heels and press the ground with the brakes until it stops.
