Pros and cons of Skate Lessons Intermediate app for iPhone and iPad
Skate Lessons Intermediate app good for
INCREDIBLE!!! Ive watched both the beginner and intermediate videos a thousand
times and my skills have increased exponentially.Your emphasis on technique is amazing. Congrats on a wonderful
compilation of training that will help inline skaters around the globe!!
I bought the beginner and intermediate apps and it’s the best money I’ve ever spent. These are great and have really helped me progress in my skating. Can’t recommend these enough.
Some bad moments
I have been skating consistently for over 3 years. In fact, I have competed in 6 inline skating marathon events... However, I never learned how to t-stop, or how to perform a lunge turn or crossovers. This app really explained each lesson in such a way that it gradually allowed me to master each skill. I am still learning, but I have made so much progress... Much more and better than anything else I found on the web. Thank you so much for your effort and putting this together for people like myself... Looking forward to additional lesson on how to perform the double push.
Thank you Asha for your wonderful apps. I downloaded all of them a while back and I must say they are priceless. I mastered everything in the beginner app and am working on the intermediate app lessons now. Id like to tell everyone that these go into great detail and will teach the maneuvers in small steps that build upon each other making it as easy as possible to learn.
The other day I was at my local skate rink and one of their instructors came up to me and told me to lose my heel brake because itll get in my way while crossing over. I laughed and told him Ill be fine with it on. I knew Id be fine because you taught me a specific step in this intermediate app on how to crossover without hitting the heel brake. Thanks again Asha!
Im 46, never skated before, but decided to take it up after a knee injury kept me from running. These apps are absolutely wonderful in the very careful, clear and concise explanation that makes a bite sized approach to learning skating techniques possible. I downloaded all three and Ive moved through the first one in about 4 months of practice of about 2-3 times per week 20 to 30 min per session. These are the apps to buy if you want to learn to inline skate properly.
Im so happy to say that finally we have a nice skating app! The lessons are easy to understand and practice. ;) Maybe its a good idea to launch an iPad version... ;) Congratulations!
Thanks Asha for these apps. There is nothing else like this in the App Store. I have purchased ice skating apps to learn fundamentals of both sports but they have very little instruction and no sound. These are well worth the $$ if you love skating. I hope to see an advanced or intermediate 2, or one that teaches some basic figure skating. Nicely done SkateFresh!
If you want to improve your skating this app is the key . Its out standing . I highly recommend it. Its worth every penny I paid for it .
