The forward stride is the most common move in skating.
It exists of three parts; the push, the glide and the recovery.
Here I'll explain the basics
#1 THE PUSH
The push must be sideways
Stay low and fully extend your pushing leg
The push ends with a toe flick
#2 THE GLIDE
Your balance now shifts over to the gliding skate
and you can keep on gliding for as long as feels natural
#3 THE RECOVERY
While one skate is gliding,
move the other skate back to its initial position
Put it down close to the gliding skate and a little bit behind
As you put one skate down, you push with the other one
And so the cycle all repeats
COMMON MISTAKES
#1 THE PUSH
Your natural instinct is to push backward as when you walk or run
For skating, that's wrong!
As you see, this does not work with inline skates
Make sure that your push is sideways so no energy is wasted
#2 THE GLIDE
If you cannot balance on one skate, the glide is cut short
and you'll waste energy and not gain any speed
Try to balance over one skate
Even if you keep it for half a second, that's a good start
Gradually you'll be able to balance for one full second, then two seconds and so on
If you cannot do it all, check if your skate is leaning inward
If it is, try to straighten your ancle
If it seems impossible, don't worry. I think it's an instinct to bend your skates inward
since it makes you feel safer and you're not yet that comfortable on skates
Just take your time, don't stress and before you know you'll get it
#3 THE RECOVERY
A very common beginner mistake is to keep the skates too far apart
Or lifting a skate too high
Or put it down in front of the other skate
Or maybe a combination of all three
Basically you want a long glide and that's
why you want to put the skate down close to the other and a little bit behind
so you can get that long smooth glide
COMMENTS
There's no such thing as a perfect stride
Even pros need to work on their strides
As you improve you'll learn the entire body is involved and almost all your muscle must work together
But that's not the scope of this video
I just want you to make you aware of the basic push, the glide and the recovery
Once you get it right, especially when you're able to keep the glide for longer
your skating will improve like tenfold
You'll be able to go as far and as fast and as efficient as with a bicycle
But then a new problem will occur. How to stop?
