HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 июн 2024
- My challenge for this skating progress video was learning to skateboard in seven days! I tried learning how to ollie for beginners and LOTS more beginner skateboarding tricks. I gave myself one week to learn as many skate tricks including a half Caspar flip, half board flip, ollies, tactics, monster walking, primo flip, 180 degree turn and more :) Hope you guys enjoy and as always if there is anything you want to see me try then GO AHEAD AND LET ME KNOW ON INSTAGRAM
My instagram got lots more fun ;)

It is normal for skaters to put their left foot forwards and push with their right foot. It's called the "regular" stance and it's the most common. Skating with the right foot in front and left behind is called "goofy" stance, not because people who do it are goofy, but because it's a reference to the Mickey Mouse character Goofy who surfed like that in the old cartoons. I'm a right handed person and I actually skate goofy myself because I feel like I can do the tricks better with my right foot, but it's all about whatever feels best.
Same !
you're the best istg thanks !
I didn't know the goofy fact!
I’m goofy footed
Exactly what I thought but apparently only 56% of people are regular-footed even though 90% of people are right-handed. Interesting but who knows how accurate data on that will ever be.
As for possible reasons why, I think it's because you have more pushing power with your right foot. Your left foot just needs to stand there.
I have a tip for you, and any other beginners. Helmets and learning how to fall right can help confidence in skating. Before I started wearing a helmet, I was scared to do most things. 3 months later and I am skating 3 stairs and small gaps.

yes!! totally agree with this!!
@@repentofyoursinsandbelieve629 huh
@@repentofyoursinsandbelieve629 do you read any other books?
HOW TO FIX ROCKET OLLIES:
1. Move your front foot closer to the front bolts (not exactly on them). I know you heard it some where that placing your front foot at the center of the board makes your ollies higher. That tip only applies if you already know how to ollie.
2. Actually lift off your back leg. Before attempting to ollie try jumping without the board and try to lift your thighs as close as you can get to your chest (or actually hit your chest). It's for you to feel/visualize how you should really be jumping while doing ollie.
3. Shift your weight. It seems like all your weight is on your back leg. That's why you keep falling backwards. Straight body, bend down, then jump as high as you can. ACTUALLY JUMP LIKE REALLY TRY TO LIFT OF YOUR THIGHS CLOSE TO YOUR CHEST.
anyways that's all I can give lol it took me months to learn to do an ollie, most people take weeks. As long as you don't give up you'll learn it. Thanks for making hilarious skate videos I haven't skated in years if I put up a skate video on my channel it's because I got inspired from you ahaha. Gracias!
LEGEND thank you!!!!

Cosign all of this
ive been skateboarding for about a year now, and i havent progressed much because of your same fear of falling and embarrassing myself. Girl skaters have so much more pressure cuz its considered being a poser if you bad when your really just beginning. But uve inspired me to not gaf and to continue to skate again and hopefulley i can land my first kickflip!! GL on ur journey too!!
Trust me people don't think you're a poser if you just started out. Everyone started somewhere. If anything other skaters only want to help you learn if you ask them. I'm not a beginner by a long shot, but I actually rather skate with people who are just learning more. But I still like to skate by myself. Just stick with it and learn how to ride the board and get comfy with that. Then work your way up slowly. It most likely will take at least 5 years to be really good. By then it is a lot easier. You have to build up certain muscles in your feet, toes, legs etc for a few years. I mean skating is scary and skaters know how hard it is, so don't feel shy around other skaters. I can understand how most normal people think everyone skates like tony hawk but in reality that just isn't true. The only way you're a poser is if you say you skate and don't skate like at all, like at any level. Like if I said I skate but I actually had never done it before. Or you wear only skate cloths and never skated before or cared about it, but skaters themselves don't care about this. The more money and popularity a company has is better for skaters. Because they can release more products etc, like look at vans. I don't care that they're mainstream, I don't care if non skaters wear them at all. More money for vans, more new shoes come out that help me skate better. Just my 2 cents. Just give it some time and take it slowly with skating, don't rush into tricks until you know you're ready. Realistically kickflips will take a year or 2 to land. Learn how to ollie first, manuals, do those for a few months and move up to more. etc. Most skaters didn't learn kickflips in a week. In the 80s skating died because it had a boom and then kids quit because they realized how hard it was.
How is there more pressure for girl skaters? If beginners in general are considered posers?
For ollie advice, it looks pretty good so far. There are just a few small things to adjust and you'll have it in no time. First, move your front foot forward so it sits just behind the front truck screws with the toe of your shoe in line with the side of the board. That'll make sure you can level out the board quickly in the air before you land to fix the straight up rocket. For a moving ollie, you're not only jumping up, but also forwards just a bit so you'll carry your momentum into your board. Otherwise, the board will just shoot out in front of you before you can land on it. What helped me is to think about my front foot kicking the nose of the skateboard. It should catch right on the little dip before the nose bends upward. That's what gives skateboarders the ability to control their ollies in the air. It's all in control of that front foot. The back foot should just bend at the knee and lift up to where the board should level out to. The last tip is just practice a little bit every day. There are right techniques to the ollie, but even if you know it in your head, your body has to try it many times before you get the hang of it. When I learned it took about two weeks of daily practice to land a good moving ollie, and another month before I could ollie over stuff without falling down. It's better to practice for a little bit every day as it'll be much harder to learn if you try while tired and sore.
THIS IS EXACTLY THE ADVICE I NEED THANKS SO MUCH!!
@@HeglaRUclips Also, foot lower on the board does not mean higher ollie. Generally controlled low ollies are better than high sketchy uncontrolled ones.
Dude you don’t even skateboard all you do is play video games
@@geekerboy2324 do you think he’s gonna upload his skateboarding on RUclips?
As someone who skated as a kid, and every other summer or so decide to pick it up again, I'll say that Teacp127's comment is on point. Focus on predicting your jump a bit forward, depending on how fast you're going (I kinda sabotaged myself as a kid by practicing too much standing still and/or on grass). Also, I find having your backfoot really centered (or wherever isn't making your bord flip in any way) and towards the back of the kick gets increasingly important for control. No sideway motions wanted for this particular trick. All of the power goes through your back foot so having it even a little off the sweetspot can mess up the cleanliness of the ollie, as they get higher. Good luck to you and everyone else practicing this! Have fun!
this progression was actually insane!! you advanced a fuck ton in 7 days. can’t wait until your next skate video
ARE YOU SERIOUS!! thats such a compliment wow :D

Amazing video!! It seriously took me by surprise; everything you tried out really made you shine as a beginner, in my opinion. Your point of view helps to see a side of skateboarding that is less calculated and more about trials and having fun; no stressing pressure. People watching one during their first pushes is awkward and scary; but honestly, you are able to bring hope to those people that can't bring themselves to get better on skateboarding.
I'm not kidding; you are doing SO well; you have better balance than I do because I'm a touch chubby. Your body is just fit for skateboarding, and the things you tried in the seven days -and the total of how the seven days ended - are worth hanging the mouth for (to me, at least). You're doing great!! And I am personally enjoying the path you're going through! 💪💪✨

Love this video! Nice to hear and see a true beginner learning experience! Glad to see that I am not alone when it comes to skill progression and feeling stressed/awkward with people watching/walking by!

I love these skateboarding videos sooo much
Thanky you YT algorithm for suggesting this video. Really enjoyable and calming video + Hegla is super relatable.
Btw even though you think you didnt get as many tricks as you wanted, you still pushed through some scary moments for beginners on a skateboard and that matters a lot more then just getting the trick. 🔝
i’m so glad you’ve posted again! especially a skating video i love them
AHH THANK YOU!! glad someone looks forward to them dude
I know the struggle of thinking everyone is judging you, and this makes learning new things alone so hard. You either have to learn it with a friend or do it overnight. I mostly learned to rollerblade at night, now I'm rollerblading every Friday night with 30-40 people. Because since I moved to a busier city, I can't find a safe place at night to practice. I don't know if it's because I'm an introvert or anxiety, probably both :)
Either way, great video ! Always worth the wait.
I did the same with roller skating at night! Glad to know I'm not the only one :')
This video has inspired me so much. I feel so motivated to pick up my skateboard and start learning to skate again! Thank you 😭
This video is awesomeee, I laughed so much, with you, not at you, but mainly, it really shows me which tricks I can learn and in which order and that I can actually do them if I commit and keep on practising. So thank you for sharing this, it's motivating!! Keep up the good work!
Hey lad, that's a great video. I started skating about 2 months ago now and hell, I pretty much had the exact same experience over the first week as you had. Including the fear of concrete in the start and especially the stopping a trick, midst bypasser. Hope this gives you enough of a confidence boost as your Video just did to me. Appreciate it and keep skating
I have been skating for a month now, and I liked knowing that I am not the only person who freaks out when people are around 😅 it gets so akward in my head. I sometimes do skate in crowded places but I only cruise when this happens, when I want to learn tricks I just wake up really early before anyone does.
good luck with your skating journey!
I got my skateboard about a year ago and I think this is such good progress! You’re not afraid to try new things and it’s really cool to see :))
I love your videos, they make me feel more courageous. You're awesome
Hello ! Im new here but im so glad i found you 💖 I just started skateboarding 3 days ago and im so thankful to stumble across this vid !! Thank you so much for sharing your process 💕 u are amazin amazing i love your energy and mind set. You have inspired me to be brave and careless tomorrow i’ll try to do ollie on the pavement !!!
BRO LET ME KNOW HOW IT GOES!! (comment made my day btw. Glad I could help in any way)
This is great I see a lot of beginner learning Ollie’s then going the other Harding tricks like kick flips heel flips etc it’s gonna help u a lot as a skater focusing on the basics
Omg I’m so excited for a new video!!! I tried learning how to skateboard during covid but I got boarded of it. You can def get really good though!
I bet you can too ;) probably better than me
Nicely done! Good to see you keeping at it so diligently.
Your skating videos actually inspired me too pull the trigger on buying a board and It's a blast
GET ONE!!! I'm so glad I could inspire you to finally do it :D
Hey hegla! Great video!! I honestly feel the same the way I started to skateboard, but here is a special magic tip!! Any time you try to push, hop or go down any hills on you're skateboard, make sure to bend those knees!! Standing straight will make things harder :(, plus It gives you perfect balance overall and it'll sure make learning tricks a whole lot simpler!! You got this hegla!!
Most people have a slightly different way of learning to ollie, however I think that most would agree that the outside of your front foot should at least be at the half way mark (literally mark your griptape if it helps), anywhere up to just behind the front trucks. Then with the sweeping motion, I would practice without a board first, and basically it's like if you were doing a big sideways skip over a imaginary rope, with a little flying kick at the end as if you were trying to kick a leprechaun in the head (preferable to a child, as leprechauns are already imaginary), and then see how you go from there.
I’m getting a board this week and I’m super excited, thanks for this vid! Would love to see more, possibly you learning flip tricks!
For sure will be making that video soon :D Once I can actually ollie
good luck on your skateboarding jurney

@@repentofyoursinsandbelieve629 nah lmao, you can piss off
Amazing video Hegla 😍
You’re doing great! The best way to improve=never stop trying. Don’t bother with what others might think. Just focus on yourself and the board. People get successful not by being perfect from the get go but by tenacity and grit, by not seeing failure as something fixed and final but as an opportunity to grow - and your improvements show that. Be fierce!
Can’t wait to see this I love seeing progression videos only because I tried skating got it down was able to do an Ollie then gave up after that and lost motivation
omg you got better than me then! I recon you can do it again once you've learned it once :)
Your skating tutorial really helped me tysm!
So glad I wcould help even if I don't know what im doing :'')
I started thinking about learning to skate and RUclips recommend your old videos, i am glad you are still making videos after a long pause.
Hopefully we don't have to wait another 6 months for another upload.
Ahhh me too!! I'm hoping when I can finally do an ollie i'll make another video :D
Finallyy😭😭😭😭I had been waiting for days to watch ur videos
I LOVES THE VIDEOS HEGLA ;-; PLEASE MAKE MORE!!!
NEW VIDEO COMING SO SOON DW
best beginner video! someone actually taking it seriously instead of trying to look cool buying a board. great progress too 🙌
I'm only 6mins in and I haven't stopped laughing!!! I'm literally going through this pain on a longboard, yet, no way near as daring! Well done gurl!
You have inspired me to start skating again! ty for the motivation and funny videos
This video was so fun to watch!
My board comes tomorrow and I have a jack in name and personality, so excited!
Your vids always inspire me without making me feel inadequate
oml thats so sweet I'm so glad
finally new video . love it !
I was trying to find channels that do some skateboarding and you’re probably the best and you motivated me to skateboard!!!
The next video im hoping you can do a drop in!
Learn the wrap around.
I learnt this in 15min very easy.
Best bit of advice I can give is find someone to skate with, this honestly will help progression and you won't care about anyone walking by or even just watching.
At 45 I've not skated for 25yrs at all. I was the same, didn't want to try tricks incase someone was watching and a fear of falling incase I was laughed at.
I went to the local skatepark and within 5 minutes I had 3 teens offering to help or give advice. Made me feel so much more relaxed and no one's laughing at me for bailing.
All this started again because my 11yr old son asked me to teach him how to ride a board so I'm relearning to skate 👊
OOO ill try that next
A new video after so many days
I was waiting for this moment for months😅
I KNOW SORRY! But thanks for waiting bestie ;)
Omg im so glad youre back
Been waiting for you to upload ^-^
This is awesome. Ur progression even faster than me. But tysm this is actually really helpful
I love the fancy opera music in the backround
For your stand still ollie - I think the reason your board is going more rocket is because your front foot is a little low on the board. I would suggest moving the front foot higher up on the board a bit. Skateboarding is so tough but so rewarding - you're not bad after only 7 days!
Your channel is amazing. I learn from you every day. I hope you teach us and give us tips for the sket board
I liked watching you get good, it’s inspiring
I love your outfits sooo much!
Keep going man. Doing pretty well videos cool
ive been start skating just this year and babe i can really relate to your situation
Was here at premiere. Great video Hegla!
Im so happy you’re skating!
I’ve never ridden a skateboard, mine is coming in the 3rd of January, but I have been watching lots of beginner videos and the foot you put forward is completely to your preference so yes, you are normal
Dayum girl u brave, I just started and fel, and that hurts, I was this close to give up until watching this vid, thanks
New sub. Still at 69k. I love that skateboarding is making a comeback. Cheers
I'm the beginner, dude, you learn so fast~ I feel encourage, thank you very much
Yayyy ur back :)
are u kidding me? it took me a hole year to do a proper ollie. u r doin'g great!!! keep goin!!!
Thanks girll cool video makes me want to practise more in public ! 💖💖
Thanks for speaking of the discomfort of people seeing you struggling, that’s exacting the feeling I have and stop me to just enjoy and ride as I want into my city. Seems like I’m not alone 😅 12:58
when i watch your progression videos i feel like a proud mom for some reason
I like your vids no lie 💕
nice video, you remind me when i was starting in this
I overthink with little tricks too and still cant mannual but this video motivates me to just go for it!!
YES SAME BESTIE!! glad it could motivate you
Godddd look at the landscape😍🕸
I got a very pretty hometown :D
This is so good, great job! Fun video!
I also just started like 3 months ago haha, got two giant bloody shinners matching on both sides... muay thai fighters got nothing on skater shins lmao
This entire video is such a fucking mood. Only just started skating and this actually helps a lot. I can't get a Jack though, I'm already a Jack. There can be only one.
this is awesome!!!
THANKS BRO
Your editing is really nice
love this, good progression, mad pretty btw
9:53 - That's all that skateboarding is, really. It's a mental game; neither the board nor the ground is your enemy---it's just yourself. It's not enough to believe that it can be done, you have to also believe that it can be done by you. That's all it is---visualization and believing in oneself. And that's so beautifully positive You're a skater, you're a zen master.
it took me 3 weeks to get down a ollie and go down a ramp, nice job :)
You have a lovely personality!
YOU ARE SO SWEET DAMN!!
You’re my new hero. You’re getting more air than me with you ollies. (GANGSTA)
AHAAHA LEGENDDD thank you
@@HeglaRUclips heading out this morning to conquer my ollies…. Or break my neck! 😂
Hii! I just watched your video and you’ve made really good progress in 7 days! Just a little tip I would recommend if you wanna skate faster try leaning forward and thrusting your hand in-font of yourself when you take your next step to push of (if that’s makes sense?) 😅
This vid was nice and inspiring
FINALLY A NEW VIDEO
these are way better beginner tricks to learn than the ollie. good job.
The dominant foot seems to work best as the back foot because when you pivot and turn you use the back foot for leverage. Like when you kick a ball you use the right foot for power if you’re dominant in that foot. But with skating and board sports anything goes and it’s usually what feels good.
YOO
CONGRATS ON 69K SUBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THANKS YOU A REAL ONE
I really relate with the outro and I just wanted to let you know that your not the only one who deals with social anxiety
I dabled in a little bit of skateboard back in highschool, if you want a "trick" that feels neat to do while not being complicated at all is to drop down ledges while riding. like a sidewalk ledge and then bigger. trick is to keep your knees bent (but nott too much) and to have enough speed. then when you get the ollie down, you can mix the two together and gap stuff. It's just scary at first, especially since I also had the same issue of overthinking and fearing pain.
Keep it up though!
But hey, you're doing pretty good for a beginner! Nailing it🤝🔥
THANKS!!!
Advice for the ollie. Position your front foot just behind the bolts of your leading foot and also lift your back foot when you ollie I had the same issue where my ollies just went straight up but the fix was just lifting our bending your back leg after flicking the board up. Good luck on your journey!
Keep going, keep practicing. It is hard you know.... but you learn. Being able to ride it comfortably is the first goal. Being able to ride it anywhere, maybe down curbs aswell. Then practice ollie, until you can ride up and down the curb (sidewalk and curb) when you can do that, you can work on higher ollies, since this will make it easier to do tricks (more hang time "air time")
Well done both of you 👍
Compared to me(been skating for almost 2 years) your braver than me (i cant do good ollies) so your progress is amazing!
Okay so I have started skateboarding recently and we have very few girls who do skateboarding and at first I felt so embarrassing to practice or to fall down infront of many other skater guys some even said it's not easy for girls to learn skateboarding and today I saw your video and made me feel so confident and your efforts and all made me feel that I should do hardwork and practice again and again this video was really helpful thanks alot ❤️
OMG OMG OMG. YOURE BACK!!😄
I AM AHAHA
Amazing video, you are such a nice person and this video helped me so much to stop feeling like failure xd
THAT MADE MY DAY!!!
Loved the way you talk so much 😆 btw i liked practicing alone too
Ayy, you're back!
There from day 1 I appreciate to :)
If y want advice with ur ollie's
1.Put ur front foot closer to the bolls
2.Really put ur weight in ur front foot before popping
3.Bend down a bit more
Nice progress bro😄
THANKS SO MUCH!!
I love your videos so much! I've just found your channel today, and I'm literally loving seeing your videos (you have a new subscriber). Hopefully you see this ❤❤
3:35 the way you looked around to see if anyone saw, is something I would definitely do 😂😂
Also, its normal to have your strong leg at the back. I do that as well with my longboard, having my weak led in front of my strong one. 😁
5:18 yes it's normalormal. I personally am right handed and used to ride comfortably goofy, when I got back into skateboarding many years later, 3 years ago when I turned 18, I realized I did stationary ollies so well with my left foot forward as a when I was a kid but I couldn't push the board with my left foot forward let alone do and ollie with my dominantleg which is my right foot (goofy). So when I got back into skating, I forced myself to ride in the position that felt comfortable learning tricks on. Now I use my off leg (left foot) to do flicking and sliding since it feels more loose and less heavy than my dominant leg. I started skating as a goofy rider and made the permanent transition to regular, because of that some habits linger such as popping the board to my right hand with my right foot instead of my left side.
I loved it
hegla ur so gud at this stuff ! i cant wait to do this myself , im getting skateboard soon , just one request , when ur done learning skateboard , can u please try learning to ice skate , since u already learned roller skating i dont think u need to 'learn' much , pls just a request from a subscriber
I am new skater myself trying to perfect the basic as well like you plus I am purchasing a second board
