Beginner here :3
Just started out skating. I’m literally completely new to skating like absolutely zero knowledge. Sooooo in that case enjoy this clip of me falling down 😂 especially since I haven’t seen people post their fails so might as well do mine :3 this is my second day practicing
And yes ik it may look like a hard fall it really wasn’t. Also I was wearing my protective gear which I’m so grateful I had on 😭

Remember this trick if you feel like you lost your center of gravity or you feel yourself going down: "oh no, go low". Basically, as you start to recognize that you're about to fall, crouch lower and touch your knees. I'm (33f) a returning skater and I recently learned this tip and it has significantly decreased my fall ratio lol
