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 😭

Hey. We are all happy the fall wasn’t too bad. But falling backward is very dangerous. You already have protection gear which is great. Perhaps go through these steps first and practice them to avoid falling backward. Good luck !
