Skateboarding looks a looooot easier on the internet than it is in reality. When I bought my first board and tried to stand on it, I was terrified and humbled, it wasn't as easy as it looks. But I didn't get discouraged and after about an hour of riding I felt much better, I was able to gain some speed and make larger circles and turns. Learn to drive in large squares, where there are no cars or streets nearby, then you will become even more confident and safe. And always wear a helmet, gloves and protectors. It'll be all right. 35 YO boyo here, just starterd to learning how to ride.
I started half may, not having the time to practice every day I learnt how to put the second leg on the longboard in like 2 weeks! It was not easy at all to overcome the fear. But now I'm enjoing some progress finally; 36y old mom of 3 😅 useless to say, my 7y old son has much more confidence on the board😅
@@not_you_i_dont_even_know_you Might depend on which type of shoes you are using. I am flat footed and I use a Zero drop shoe. It hurt at first but just had to strengthen my Ankles. Hope this helps
That part of the video in the end! 😂 Love your channel. Just got back from skating after 25 years hiatus. From trick board to longboard. Turning 40 and bombing hills 🔥
I'm 73 ! The drop board long board looks very inviting because it's so close to the ground....about to purchase but I windsurfed for 15 years and skateboarded for a few years eons ago. Gentle slopes and gentle carving will be fine for me !
Hi! Would love your guidance on what longgboard I should go for... I'm over 30 and would LOVE to learn longboarding just for cruising. Length and width of board, wheel diameter, brand, style all that info would be super helpful. For bad road riding haha.
I would look into a “double-drop” longboard. They take the least effort to ride (great for cruising) and are the most compatible with bigger wheels for bad roads. Examples: Landyachtz Switchblade, Pantheon Trip, Arbor Dropcruiser, etc.
Wow the first board the double drop one is sweet, May i ask what the name is on the board? 😃👌🏻 im 41 year Old and looking for my first board an that board looks awesome 😃
I clicked this video accidentally and right after you're talking even without seeing your face i know it's daniel, you sound so familiar, are you retired from riding the batteries board? 😂

37 year old first time longboarder. Learning to push and use those muscles is crazy!! And I work out pretty regularly. So it just takes time
Omg my ANKLES help. I'm 35 and messed around on skateboards 20 years ago but just bought a longboard.

42 - starting today. Tried it a few times 20yrs ago
How was it? I just started too .. slammed pretty hard and pulled a muscle in my knee xD
Found a board diving. Took it home and refinished it. Started learning today at 57. Thanks for posting this!
I'm 47 and just started today too 🎉
Yes, just what I needed🙏I just got a board at age 39. Have to wait for summer to be able to skate but these are great tutorials
How's it going?? I just bought one at a yard sale as a 35 yr old and my ankles are so tired 😂
I just picked up a used longboard to start out on (first time boarder), but this type of board seems like it would be easier to learn on.
