      Age is a state of mind. Old man here as well. Been skating since the mid/late 80s. My problem is I skated half pipes and pools for the longest time, so when I eventually went to earn street tricks, I was like damn this is hard. Still can't do more than a few basic flips but still work on them when when I get the urge.

      Hey, keep going!
      I'm a beginner too and just getting consistent with my ollies. I keep rotating backwards and i've fallen off the board so many times at this point. But the automn has come and there's less and less time to skate for me because of constant raining and temperature going down every week. But I go out and skate whenever I get a chance.
      Just keep going, baby stepping even! And have fun while doing it! Because that's what matters!

    • @whmozart
      @whmozart 7 лет назад +4

      Hey I've been at it for a year and I'm 40. up until now I pretty much only practiced my basic tricks stand still. Started hitting the pavement recently (pretty much in the literal sense) and falling all the time.
      I do it for the fun though, and the key to that is to be alright if it doesn't work out. It's alright not to skate when you don't feel like it. As long as you want it you'll get it. Don't make it a competition. In skateboarding you don't have to.

    • @JedKurtzer
      @JedKurtzer 7 лет назад +1

      Yellow Gamer Hey man I was the same. I've been skating for around 4 years but I was really casual about it and progressed really slow. The last couple months I got completely bummed out by skating and thought of quiting. But you can't. You can't give up. Like VL said, take a break when you need it, but don't give up. Even if you only skate once or twice a month, as long as you enjoy that time, then you're enjoying skateboarding.

    • @whmozart
      @whmozart 7 лет назад +1

      Yeah Jed I agree. There are few things I enjoy doing in life (besides skating) I like playing music and painting, but as soon as the things you love become a responsibility or you're being pressured into doing it, no matter how much you love it you will hate it in the end after a surprisingly short amount of time.
      It's the same for skating. If you force yourself and make it feel like a job you will hate it. This is all my own personal experience/opinion though, but I found if I skate only when I feel like it then I do much better than when I said I HAVE TO PRACTICE. And those callings come much more often if you let them happen organically too.
      Bottom line is: Skate for yourself and no one else. Also, the skateboarding community is the most understanding and respectful community of that philosophy than any other field.
      props to you guys that shred it, never made me feel bad about being old and a beginner, never.

    I’m learning to skate, and I’m also a dancer so I like to look at tricks as choreography. You practice a bunch of times until you get it right and ingrained in your muscles, then you compete. And tricks in skating are similar to tricks in dance. It took me forever to get my splits and I had to work really hard and I got frustrated so often and now that I can do it, I do it all the time to keep it in my mind. If I can progress like I have in dance, I can definitely progress in skating.

    I've been watching a lot of skate vids recently cause I'm trying to get back into skating. I skated back when I was like 7 years old, and now I'm 18 and I forgot how much fun it was. Granted I never learned any tricks cause I was a child, but we'll see what I can do now.

I bought a shiny new one and rode it for few meters. Feeling was awesome. Now I am going through these videos to regain some theory before jumping on it again. I am turning 31 in september.

This was great because it's not that I am getting discouraged but I need to push myself a little harder and commit to learning to ollie. I can ollie a little holding onto a railing(gotta start somewhere)but need to start going for it! Your vids on that subject are great too. Thanks again and keep 'em coming!
