@Maryellen Cronin my warm up after I stretch is normally a song or 2. 30 min to an hour if incorporating a new move just to get the basics of it. once i can do it then thats the end of that session. My next 2 or 3 session would be always a warm up then no more then 30 min working on the same move. By then i have it down enough to add it to my warm. Then i just allow my warm ups to make my skating smooth over time. I do this 2 to 3 times a week depending on how i feel. with maybe 1 extra day where all I do is skate for fun.

@Rai Baker lunges, toe touches, primal squat hold, i dont know a name for it but I stand on jam plugs/ toe stops hold on to something and point my feet, ankle rolls, butterfly ( single leg at a time), standing elevated hamstring stretch, standing quad stretch. All done with skates on. For a warm i start with one foot blance holds for 20 seconds per edge (ex. Outside left, inside left ), one foot look behind holds 20 seconds per leg, these things i call edge rocks on one leg it where i turn on a song and rock on an outside edge then return to center, then to an inside edge then return to center to the rhythm of the beat( be sure not to felx your foot onto the edge transfer your weight) eagle spreads, skating on my toes ( not toe manuals), then just free skate for a song or 2 ( any move you know or working on done in a sequence).

When to tighten/ loosen your trucks vs needing harder/ softer cushions. More In depth videos on how to incorporate edges with moves for intermediate skaters. More importantly skate placement according to skill set (ex. I learned dribbles from your videos but the learning curve was hard for me because I just figured out i was extending to far)

@Jonathan Beckford try changing to a wheel with a harder core when outside ex. Radar varsity plus. They are 101s with an aluminum rim. What i noticed is when at the rink your wheels have a more consistent felx under you , causing a much quicker roll with less effort then when outside. Why so because of wheel compression. When outside use wheels with a rim on them or when inside tighten them a Little more to slow the roll down so that you can compensate with the unstable sensation you are experiencing. Im am 100% sure you will notice a significant difference with the transition. L

@Marisa Sa ok, so i think something called speed wobble is happening. I read on reddit that when you use a harder wheel; and you dont have the proper weight distribution the grooves in the floor can cause your wheel to bounce under you causing the wobbling. Sorta like when a motorcyclists goes into a death wobble. Does this sound likely, because for the most part I would consider myself to have a strong base.

@Carrie Morgan thanks this helped!

Download the sizing chart from riedell, its free. It's a video on YouTube, on measuring your self with it. Once you get your size read some reviews on which skate you would like, to see if it runs big or small. As far as what skate, depends on what is it your trying to do with it. Ex. Footwork you want a skate that doesn't have as much support for more mobility. For spins and pivots you want you skate to be more supportive , but still has some flex (most leather boots will give you this feeling). If your going strictly outdoors look into more of an roller hockey skate, like they use in London. (maximum support no flex at all).
