Naemi and Alena Stump are twin skating witches who perform coordinated stunts. The Swiss twins have been inline skating since they were eight. Their parents have posted videos of the girls on TikTok since 2022 and Instagram since 2020. They are 14 years old and a notch above your backyard skater. Please do not try these tricks at home.

Dressed as witches, the skating twins performed a halfpipe synchronized routine to ring in the Halloween season. The routine begins with the girls dropping off the edge into a halfpipe bowl. They skillfully ride their brooms, model “Broom 3000 Pro Soft Plus,” as they navigate the halfpipe.
They perform a perfectly timed spin at the top of the arc and head into the bowl again. The girls gain some air on the next leap and spin again to return to the tube. They reversed at the top of the next arc, skating backward into the bowl again. When they reached the top, the skating witches did a perfect backflip to continue backward down the bowl. Using their brooms to “sweep” the halfpipe, they resumed skating forward at the top of the arc.
It’s not all work with no rewards. Guinness World Records recently recognized the twins for their skating prowess. The twins broke records for the most synchronized tricks on inline skates, completing 11 tricks in 30 seconds and 21 tricks in one minute. During the interview with GWR, Naomi said, “Alena kept forgetting the order of the tricks.” Both sisters told GWR that learning the routines resulted from many weeks of repetitive practice.
These Skating Witches Deserve Recognition
What makes the girls even more phenomenal is that Alena has memory problems stemming from a brain tumor that was diagnosed when the girls were two. They did a similar skating routine last year and also dressed as witches. These tricks aren’t easy to perform on inline skates, so the girls practice many hours with their Creative Director, Rahel.
Kudos to the twins for their dedication to the sport. Most people can’t even stand up on inline skates, and they make it look easy. The girls work under the supervision of professionals and their parents. They perform these tricks under safe conditions before attempting them on the unforgiving halfpipe. You can check out many of their practice videos on TikTok and Instagram. They truly put in the work and have a passion for skating, even when they aren’t dressed as witches.
The only thing that might be cuter on the internet is these floofy cows. Please share if these synchronized twins made you smile.
