    Man it's crazy to think I was watching these videos in the summer of 2016, not even able to stand on my new board but excited to learn and now I can ride like it's second nature and learned so many tricks from your videos. There's so much nostalgia in hearing the chill background music and seeing all of the skate spots you used to film in. If you're new and are really struggling to pick skating up, that's normal! Just keep at it and have fun, I'd give anything to be back in those days again

      How long did it take you to learn

    • @b0neless437
      @b0neless437 3 месяца назад +1

      @Sillyxslushy to learn which part? To the best of my memory, learning the first few stages (total beginner to ollie), it went something like:
      Basic riding took me about 3 months of constant practice to get the hang of. Faster and more controlled movement took me an extra few months, during which I picked up one or two super simple tricks. I then spent the better part of 9 months learning to do a really basic ollie whilst rolling slowly, but eventually (I guess over the course of a year or so), I could ollie pretty well. I didn't think I'd ever get that far lol. Took me a while to get there but the level of control gained from all of that practice is so rewarding.
      Hope that helps!

    I don’t even skate much anymore, I haven’t found the time in years. But i remember watching all your trick guides years ago and being so excited to go to the park with my friends and try them out. You‘re one of the reasons I spent so much time out there, connecting with friends and having fun. I miss it, i don’t know anyone who skates anymore. But the fact that you still make these videos makes me so happy. I know another generation of skaters will be well looked after.

      Pick it up again man. I skated hard from 14-18, then quit to work more. My girlfriend became a wife. Apartment became a house. Hourly job turned salaried. NONE of those things have brought me as much personal fulfillment as picking up skating again in the last year at 34yo. I felt like such a drone. Always doing what I needed to do, and almost never doing anything I wanted to do.
      Don't only focus on what you have to.
      Focus on something because you want to.

    Best first day skating tutorial so far! Nobody talks about one footed balance for pushing / stopping or why one should use both legs to lift the end of the board. Monster Walk is also useful to get comfortable on the board.

      Then you suck at skateboarding. If you own that thing for a month and you still have no balance and can't even ride that thing freely around town, then it's best for you to either start practicing or just throw it out. If you spend your entire day on the pc and now practicing now and then, what is the point of that thing? Idiots these days...

    @ovecboy Год назад +26

    IMO the best way to figure out your stance is thinking about how you slide on ice naturally. You kniw that when you are fooling around on ice in regular shoes. You run for it, and start sliding as it feels natural. Now that will also be your skateboarding stance. At least I got this advice, and it worked right away for me

I am a big fan and I thank you for the beginner friendly content you have provided until now!

    As with anything in life, you just need thousands of hours at any task to become good. Pilots are required to have at least 1000 hours in a specific plane, same for boat captains. Gymnastic spend hours, same for ice skaters, any athletes in any field. Same for those fast asian food workers. Skateboard instructors tell you to just ride it until you've become 1 with it. That's when you can attempt tricks.
