i actually want to get into judo just because i've taken slams at like 20+ MPH and *mostly* walked them off, so why not learn another martial art that's even lower impact than concrete & asphalt and will teach me to roll even better?
The only thing that has to be modified is the back-break fall. If you slap the concrete with your hands you can break your hand. I almost did it turning my hand black from the bruising. It's safer to slap the ground with your triceps at the same time, similar to a pro-wrestling "bump" rather than a judo breakfall.
I just took a gnarly fall from a rock while riding from the parking lot to the skatepark. The roll he demonstrates saved me from serious injury. I'm back to say thanks, and to encourage others to ROLL.
sometimes you can get so focused and sweaty on a trick that just taking a shirt off isnt enough. gotta do a backside flip with those balls swinging for momentum y'know.
I felt unstable riding on transition once, so I stepped off and rolled my ankle so hard I broke my leg. Even though I've regularly practiced falling as a skater and a rock climber, I've had a hard time trusting myself to fall safely since my accident.
Same. I fell and broke three lumbar vertebrae. Nothing too serious, had to wait for it to heal naturally, like broken ribs. I'll be able to go back skating in 2 days, but now I'm EXTREMELY scared of falling. I think I dodged a big bullet last time, but I don't want to stop skating, so I'll be extra careful and start for scratch
I really appreciate your channel, specifically how well you explain things by referring to elements that aren't just tangible. Using little 3d models really helps me to understand. Thanks a bunch, definitely subscribing.
Thanks for the tips! My best falls is when the side of my body plops down like a bodyslam, but not my first instinct. I stick out my hand to fall, and I'm heavy. Taking a little break at the moment. My thumb was hurting so bad in the fleshy part under the joint. I couldn't hold a barre chord on a guitar without it feeling pretty gross. My wrist pain left after using a d30 double-sided wrist band for a while. But some injuries aren't obvious until it gets bad. You can skate with a bad wrist or shoulder til you fall on it and cry for five minutes, so do try to let injuries heal correctly, too.
The same thing applies to motorcycling. When a car suddenly blocks your path, you need to either gradually apply brake pressure or swerve to escape the collision. This can be done by practicing said options and staying alert to your surroundings.
i would love to see a in depth observation of grind tricks on ledges vs rail and just overall weight distribution between different tricks. I think it would be very interesting. I'm glad you're still doing content keep it up !
Just got back from the hospital with a cast on my leg from a badly sprained ankle while doing a shuvit. I was already scared of doing them before because i broke a rib on a fakie shuvit. Now I'll probably avoid them altogether. I'll probably stick to ollies / miniramp from now on 😂
so that's why sometimes I don't even pop when trying something scary. This has kept me away from doing any big drops as one time I didn't pop, straightened out my legs and slid like a pencil.
Thanks for the video! I'm a very beginner but everytime I lose my balance, I manage to not fall and land on my two feet or one foot but don't hit the floor , which is scary. I fell only 2x. Learning to fall and not get all beat up is a great skill because its not a matter of if, its a matter of when. I also did some jitsu and judo, body been throw zillions of times. Never got hurt. Tuck your chin, rock your back.
three things that helps me not get hurt skating 1 go to the gym, train legs. 2. do yoga 3. do gymnastics all that flexibility and flailing really helps keep you safe
i new to roll but the hand placements seems right but sometimes i don't roll and put my hands out in front of me and this gave the idea to try to have them sideways and start to roll more but id pretty much take all the impact in my arms to catch myself
that "dont stick out your thumb when landing on forearms" advice wouldve really saved me a while ago. I fell forward on a mini ramp when trying to do a rock to fakie about 4 months ago and snapped my radius bone in half and probably even broke my wrist. I still can't even do a push up because my wrist hurts so bad when i bend my arm its horrible 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I count that as a trick these days cause I am so consistent with it. Its even worse in fakie when the front foot comes off with the back foot still on the tail, gets you a free credit card
so far the accidents that happen to me during a skate sessions have been off the skateboard something so stupid like running straight into a fence i didn't see, slipping while walking down some stairs, etc. i think i got it the wrong way around 😭
the thing about these kind of tutorials is that they always show how to avoid injury when you fall off your board on flat ground medium speed and conviniently both feet off the board. None of these would apply to my recent fall when i fell off the side of the quarter pipe and my sketeboard ended under one of my feet
My problem is not falling as such, but getting off the board safely. When I realise that the grind is getting too tight, I try to jump off the board. but sometimes I get my front foot caught on the griptape, which creates a pretty dangerous situation because the fall suddenly becomes uncontrolled or I can't control that I don't step on the board uncontrollably with my standing leg. Any tips?
The only time you actually get hurt is when you least expect it. Boom pebble skrrrrts and before you can even react your hip is bruised and you have a sprained wrist.
I broke the two radial bones of my right hand with a terrible displacement twice, a year apart, after the second fracture I didn’t skate for four years due to doctors’ ban, now I’m on the board and I’m afraid of flips, I can’t put my other leg, although thanks to muscle memory I I remember how to do everything, I just can’t put my other foot on the board.
How do you fall safely while trying to drop in on a quarter pipe but you don't push down hard enough and just fall instead? Lol hurt my hand pretty bad
there is a lot of truth in this video but i do feel like you shouldn't get of the board if you ever get uncomfortable because you will never truly be comfortable on the board doing tricks until you have actually landed it a couple times before
I cracked my tailbone on a hubba last time I went out because I did not account for 2 or 3 years of no practice. There was no way to roll out, just remember to clench your cheeks before impact.
This is the first thing taught in judo and I always thought it should be taught in skateboarding too!
i actually want to get into judo just because i've taken slams at like 20+ MPH and *mostly* walked them off, so why not learn another martial art that's even lower impact than concrete & asphalt and will teach me to roll even better?
The art of the fall is as pivotal as the ollie
Same but I learned it in Bjj

yea same in judo we learned rolls and how to fall in every direction it was the firt thing you learn

why does there need to be a "do not be naked" sign?
it's a city-owned place, so...
sometimes you can get so focused and sweaty on a trick that just taking a shirt off isnt enough.
gotta do a backside flip with those balls swinging for momentum y'know.
I sometimes go out naked. It's nice of them to inform me of places where I can't do that.
i gotta look like a caveman while doin caveman
@@bassyeyThe worst part is being told off when I'm at a skatepark with no warnings. Like, put a sign up if you don't want me nude! Smh
What an awesome video. I'm 34 and I just got my first skateboard today and was looking for exactly this kind of content
I appreciate it!
4:00 that layup hurt me more than any skate trick has
ghost defense was too good lol
It almost looks like he’s running some sort of dumb drill.
maybe he was trying to alley oop a ghost lol
Perfect video I get hurt a lot but I’ve also been very lucky because I follow a lot of these to the T without even noticing
I felt unstable riding on transition once, so I stepped off and rolled my ankle so hard I broke my leg. Even though I've regularly practiced falling as a skater and a rock climber, I've had a hard time trusting myself to fall safely since my accident.
There are ankle braces

Oddly good timing, I’m watching videos before my skateboard has shipped to me. Thanks
That's the first video you need to watch before trying to skate) Thanks

4:55 yeah i did that, which is why im icing my elbow and watching this video
haha, you have something more interesting to watch when you are injured. get well soon.

Remember to use a helmet. Brain damage sucks.
true.
Not only a helmet
@@Str8representingwell armor for your body/limbs is good but you can heal your body more, you can't really heal brain damage
its so fun to understand the phsyics and psychological side of skating with your videos. thanks!
i would love to see a in depth observation of grind tricks on ledges vs rail and just overall weight distribution between different tricks. I think it would be very interesting. I'm glad you're still doing content keep it up !
Dude i needed this, I bought my first skate, two weeks later I fall and my ankle is destroyed for the next two weeks.
my first day i rolled my ankle and i can’t even run right now, let alone pushoff 😭
I've never seen the wrist slide approach, that's definitely viable too. Thanks
I used it once, almost broke my hand,would not reccomend. Rolls are better
@@fekigrejps7859 Good to know, thanks
Just got back from the hospital with a cast on my leg from a badly sprained ankle while doing a shuvit. I was already scared of doing them before because i broke a rib on a fakie shuvit. Now I'll probably avoid them altogether. I'll probably stick to ollies / miniramp from now on 😂
That’s what I call commitment. Get well soon!
@@whythetrick thanks!
Hey bro! Wanted to commend you on this video. I love how you know basic human anatomy and physiology, and referenced them for this video. Great job!
When i get hurt its usually on an easy trick, i just get distracted and face plant. Not usually on new tricks or bigger stairs
We jump fences and roofs in Philly so you learn to fall before you learn to skate
Thts wild 🔥
6:38 omg you skate at Miyashita Park?! Sickkk
This is true skateboard therapy for me
Broke both of my hands, because I fell stupid hate the fact. My right hand is now fucked for ever.
Did you wear protection?
so that's why sometimes I don't even pop when trying something scary. This has kept me away from doing any big drops as one time I didn't pop, straightened out my legs and slid like a pencil.
man i couldnt have been recommended this 4 days ago not me here in a wrist braces loaded on muscle relaxers XD

That “do not be naked” sign is a total buzzkill lol. Love the content though. Thanks for sharing helpful info!
the detail in this video is amazing haha it's so well thought out great job
Just flew on my chest and hands when I was cruising so gotta watch this before I go again
Love your videos man. Thank you
Thank u for this vid. Only if i known sooner 😢
Great video! Thank you for making it :-)
Thank you ❤😊
-I really like this video.
three things that helps me not get hurt skating 1 go to the gym, train legs. 2. do yoga 3. do gymnastics
all that flexibility and flailing really helps keep you safe
True.
Best tip
Can you recommend specific gymnastics exercises with biggest benefits for skaters?
2:06 I refuse to believe he hurt himself for footage for this video, this must've just been a fortunate mistake
That might have been a light roll without spraining anything from the looks of it, but I agree with you!
SHONAZ?!
I landed on my arm super awkward on the weekend. Kind of ironic/funny this video comes up now xD
i needed this earlier i just sprained my wrist this morning😭
i new to roll but the hand placements seems right but sometimes i don't roll and put my hands out in front of me and this gave the idea to try to have them sideways and start to roll more but id pretty much take all the impact in my arms to catch myself
great video
thank you for that great video, and good tipps, love your videos❤🔥
Glad you like it!
Youre awesome man
Well explained thanx
Nice man
i broke my elbow 24 hours before getting this recommended to me
Having done Judo at young age definitely helps me falling learning to skate
so good!
you're awesome
I been saying spin to win is the way

勉強になりました(^^♪ありがとうございます！！👍
you should do an analysis of nakel smith falling technique
I wish I knew these things back in the 80s and 90s… would definitely have saved me from torn ligaments, fractures and stuff lol
the worst thing is when you land one foot on the board and the other one on the floor while moving 💀
true.
I count that as a trick these days cause I am so consistent with it. Its even worse in fakie when the front foot comes off with the back foot still on the tail, gets you a free credit card
And then you sprain something like your hip and it hurts for a few days
so far the accidents that happen to me during a skate sessions have been off the skateboard
something so stupid like running straight into a fence i didn't see, slipping while walking down some stairs, etc.
i think i got it the wrong way around 😭

You know what, that's what we all are scared of. I was not brave enough to replicate it in this video haha.
Just ate shit while skating for the first time today and 4h later this video gets released feels kinda targeted haha
Which wristguard do you use? Looks good
It says "Soared Armguard" on its label.
@@whythetrick This was the first tutorial I've seen for using wrist guards. Thank you so much.
I had knee surgery so it’s the fear of feeling pain now 😂
0:54 got a stroke in the left brain hemisphere 🥴
ohhh, so that's what the little black area means?

I scratched the palms of my hands 2 times after I fell backwards
Tuck n roll.
I broke the two radial bones of my right hand with a terrible displacement twice, a year apart, after the second fracture I didn’t skate for four years due to doctors’ ban, now I’m on the board and I’m afraid of flips, I can’t put my other leg, although thanks to muscle memory I I remember how to do everything, I just can’t put my other foot on the board.
2:08. Real twisted ankle..
Hahaha: "Do not be naked" @ 0:13 felt so off in this video. Why would I be naked and falling?
Sometimes you can’t fall safely, let’s just acknowledge that
I smell an engineer
Whenever I'm about to fall I usually do a dio pose
What skate park you is this? I just moved to Japan for school but I haven’t seen anyone skating I thought maybe it’s not a popular sport here
In Tokyo by the way so it’s crowded I’ve not seen anyone skating skate parks when I explore
it's Tamachi. Looking forward to seeing you there!
I actually accidentally did that but i used my arm as a cusion for the fall
Not me seeing this after I broke my collarbone back in April
yeah... I've never had any chance, but breaking a collarbone always looks painful...
Nah i prefer to become a meat crayon at 25mph
When I fell I locked my elbow and it broke, got 2 plates and ~13 screws 💀
Got on a board for the first time in 8 years and ate s**t in the first 30 seconds I had to walk back to the shop to buy a helmet
How do you fall safely while trying to drop in on a quarter pipe but you don't push down hard enough and just fall instead? Lol hurt my hand pretty bad
Try nosegrab and wearing a helmet. Safety first!
bruh I fell and broke my forefinger it won't bend. Bones grow wrong :(
Why is do not be naked a rule? It worries me that they need to tell people not to be almost like someone has...
Класс
Why is there a dont be naked sign on the background 💀
some person decided to be naked and scared all the kids im guessing
Why is this tagged AI?
The system at the end uses an AI engine.
Haha you said a 3D animation according to the video
Your pivot cups are squeaky 😠
Rule #1 Helmet
there is a lot of truth in this video but i do feel like you shouldn't get of the board if you ever get uncomfortable because you will never truly be comfortable on the board doing tricks until you have actually landed it a couple times before
Sorry
Don't worry about it.
I can't understand a word you're saying.
I feel sorry.
@Mr. whythetrick I think you have become my favorite Chinese person
oh, I like chinese people, too.
I cracked my tailbone on a hubba last time I went out because I did not account for 2 or 3 years of no practice. There was no way to roll out, just remember to clench your cheeks before impact.
Thank you 🙏
