This is the final ‘How To’ video that I’ve got created for all your roller derby folks out there in roller derby land. It’s not the most thrilling thing but something we all need to do every once and a while. Let me know what other ‘How To’ videos you would like me to produce in the comments section below and I’ll get right on them; At least I’ll take your comments under advisement.
It’s time for another installment in “Roller Derby 101 Gearexganza 2.0 on Ice!” I guess I’ve got no real name for these videos but this one is going to cover cleaning your bearings and I’m sure I’m going to get a lot of negative feedback about what I do wrong and to those people I say “BRING IT ON”.
… and with too much intro I bring your “How to clean your roller skate bearings”.
You just got your hands on a bearing press and you’re asking “How do I use this thing?” and I got your answer right here.
I know all you freshmeat out there are asking yourselves “How do I adjust my trucks?” so I made a quick video on just how to do that. This video cover only one type of plate but about 90% of all freshmeat skates will use this type of plate. Enjoy.

The second in my series of videos aimed at helping freshmeat become a better rollergirl. While changing your wheels might seem very straight forward to a seasoned veteran there can be a lot of questions from a newbie.

I did a series of short videos for the freshmeat out there a while back and I’m going to post them up here to live. This first video will walk you through all the parts of your skates so that you know what people are talking about when they refer to the plate of a roller skate. More to come shortly.
