  • Skating Ramps For Beginners
    Getting into transition skating can be a ton of fun but also a little daunting at first. I've tried to put together some of the most basic things that you should learn on transition before getting into learning tricks or anything fancy. I'm not the best ramp skater in the world but it always feels awesome to just carve around a bowl or drop in and go super fast. Hopefully some of these tips will help you out or at the very least entertain you!
    Main talking points:
    Basics
    Pumping
    Dropping In
    How To Drop In: • How To Drop In On A Sk...
    As always, thank you for watching and I will see you next time! :D

    As an old person, skate in both your natural and your switch stance from the very beginning. Also get comfortable skating with just your front foot, whether regular or switch..... This will help you push, over sketchy ground, make it way easier to bail from your board. ..... But skate in both stances..... This will save you so much time later.

It’s very different to flat which is what I’ve been doing for the whole time I’ve skated, THANK YOU!!! You’re actually the RUclips that motivated me to skate!!!

    Okay, pumping is a weird thing to explain. You think of your crouching and uncrouching as a jump instead of as independent movements. At the bottom of the ramp, you want to "jump" to the top of the ramp. This is so you lose less speed going up the ramp, and thus gain more going back down. When you're at the top of the ramp (the peak of your height) you "jump" down the ramp to accelerate rapidly. As you "land", you push off the ramp in order to build even more speed. This is the force VLSkate mentions.
    It's also a weird thing because sometimes it's beneficial to pump earlier or later depending on your trick. A later pump might make you flyout the ramp higher, which is one of my favorite tricks. An earlier pump might have you land squarely on the coping, good for stalls. Just play with it a bit once you get the basic concept.

    • @hotpinkfryingpan7615
      @hotpinkfryingpan7615 2 года назад

      I don't mean to say the video is bad, it's just that explaining pumping to someone who is just learning to roll up ramps is difficult, especially because unlike a kickflip where you see what's happening wrong when the board flips a certain way, bad pumping still looks like skating. Good work as always
