Overcoming Plateaus in Roller Skating

When I first hit a plateau in skating, it felt awful. Moves that used to be easy suddenly became hard, and I couldn’t stop comparing myself to others. It felt like I was falling behind, but eventually, I pushed through.

Over time, I realized that plateaus are just part of the journey. While they’re frustrating at first, you learn to just roll through them. I’m currently hitting another wall due to an injury, and it’s tough not being able to skate like I used to. My body needs rest, and accepting that is hard, especially when I can’t do my favorite tricks like jumping.

It’s easy to fall back into comparing yourself to other skaters, but I’ve learned to focus on appreciating others’ talents instead of letting negativity take over. If social media makes me feel worse, I take a break from it.

When you hit a plateau, try doing what works best for you. Switch up your routine, practice old skills, or try something new. Sometimes, just skating without focusing on improvement helps clear your mind. It’s also important to take breaks when needed, especially if you’re injured.

The key to overcoming plateaus isn’t to fight them—it’s to ride them out. Focus on what makes you happy about skating, and remember that progress isn’t always a straight line!
