Stopping on roller skates is an essential skill for skaters of all levels. Whether you’re just starting out or you’re a seasoned pro, it’s important to know how to stop safely and effectively.
There are a few different ways to stop on roller skates, but the most common and effective method is the T-stop. To perform a T-stop, simply extend one leg out to the side and drag the toe of your skate on the ground. This will create friction and slow you down. Once you’ve slowed down enough, you can put your other foot down to stop completely.
