I can just imagine someone zooming down a really long hill, getting their phone out and looking up this video while panicking on their board
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Microsoft Foot broke my arm cuz I was zooming down a really long hill and didn't know how to stop :(
Microsoft Foot so far I don't know how to slide or brake so me and my friend have had to practice downhill by only bombing the hill and hope for the best
Microsoft Foot dood, that was me fucking 2 hours ago before I broke my leg
That was me two weeks ago except I broke my front teeth and badly scraped my chin. Luckily I had a helmet on or else I might not have been alive :')
i just carry a anchor and a rope in my pocket, and when i need to stop i just throw it at a tree and pray it crabs a hold on something.
What about the speed 'chute that you can launch from your backpack? If it works for racecars, why the hell not??? I'll be checking out my kites now to see if I can mod them for this...
😂
Grappling hooks FTW!

I’ve learnt my lesson, Never jump of your board and start running.
Unless there's a flock of scooter kids behind you.
Yeah, I learned that the hard way. That's why I'm watching this vid.
All the likes you got likely mean, that everyone did it at least once.
I did and although I got rather lucky, I still learned my lesson.
yet that's how they tell you to stop a ripsurf
Fatelvis2 family member of mine shattered his tibia on one of those
I didn't expect a tutorial about breaking on a longboard would have such a hilarious comment section
Lol same
I got my board 3 days ago. I decided to test turns in my neighborhood. My neighborhood has a lot of hills. I went zoom zoom without knowing how to slow down. Needless to say, I ate it
4 years later and now I'm in this exact situation
today i drove down a hill and my board started to wobble....even my footbreaking didnt worked well :D it turned out that i jumped off...almost fell down and i ran after my board xD people in the car were laughing at me i think.....but im lucky that i didnt fell. thats how i got here....thanks for the useful tutorial.
JuFa94 tighten your getting speed wobbles just tighten your trucks till you get use to them then loosen them and so on
@@emileenoelle1382 crying doesn't make you a pussy.
forget the crying its the concussion you have to worry about were you wearing a helmet?
nay they were thinking he is living balls out and I am in a sedan
that happened to me years ago and i had ot judo roll onto some grass. was pretty boss but i had a decent headache after
Currently on here after eating s*** like 4 times. Another really effective way to stop is to jump and roll, trust me I know.
Bro I speed wobbled so hard and ate massive shit earlier thought I had a concussion then came here
Me laying in bed while waiting for my longboard i bought online;-;
Omg thats me😅
LMAO SAMEEEE
On god if this ain’t a fact
Literally me right now in my dorm
Same
What if i like my shoes?
you use shoes that you dont.
I,m using my ass to stop.
Y u don't like your ass?
its too nice and juicy
Tough luck buddy
I’ve been foot braking on shopping carts since forever 😂
Ha! I hadn't even realized, but that makes me a veteran foot braker I suppose.
this is enormously beyond my skillset. but I'm not giving up!
coolBiblekid It's been two months, how'ya doing?
I scraped HARD once and got discouraged, but I got some elbow pads and I am going to get back into it! I was going about 40 MPH down hill the first time I crashed and lost a lot of skin off of my elbows and scared my wife half to death, but this last time I spilled, I was barely moving and it was like the board was ripped out from under me. I have been hesitant to get back on because of those two, but I have a nice board so I want to get rolling again! I have a Sector 9 pintail! lol... thanks for asking bro!
Are you still alive?
You good?
Where u iz?
Me and my friend couldn’t figure this out for the life of us, but with your video we got it under control in less than 30 minutes hahah thanks!
That's awesome! Glad it helped!
Same!!!
@@user-qb4ke6gm5b I’m imiim
This was really really easy to follow. Always takes a special person to be really good at something and still be able to dumb it down for others. You were very clear and it was a great video. Thank you!! (P.S. I'm still limping almost a week later of jumping off the board a couple times last week because I was too afraid to try the foot brakes... Tsk tsk tsk. Going to get an x-ray tomorrow, I hope that I will have a second chance to do things the right way!).
Same iv been jumping off my board because i was also too afraid of doing the foot brake and almost messed up my leg but im sure im fine just have a bit of a pinch nerve in my thy
PS great tutorial it help me out so much 👍
“Dumb it down”, lol just say explaining things precisely 🤡
@@Ibroketherubber Precisely but also in simple terms
were you okay?
Precise and right on. Knowing how to control a run with carving is essential to still be longboarding a year from now. Knowing how to do shut downs is just as important.
Goofy Mongo what are shut downs?
Vlad Vostok An extreme slide that brings you to a complete stop
Speed checks
I Always wanted to try longboarding, getting into it at 28yrs old. Never too late I guess! Had to look up how to stop properly after shooting my board into the street twice already. Thanks for the tips
Bro I just started yesterday and I'm 40, never too old
28yrs old here just started yesterday! Hope you're still going at it!
I thought i could foot break until 2 days ago when i slammed my face into the pavement and got a big ass split lip... so now i’m doing all the research i can lol
I bought a break pad and lever that attaches onto your skateboard. My beautiful carver board now has 3 holes, I nearly broke my neck and I still can’t break.
This vid makes it look so easy! My carver board gains so much speed on just the tinniest slope and it’s holding me back.
man today i was going downhill and started to wobble and thought i’ll just jump off and nope as soon as i touched the ground i just flew forward
Spent a long time today just practicing foot breaks and it’s way harder than it looks! Realized my balance it’s as great as I thought either... definitely going to have work on this for awhile.
Can agree friend, I about ate it making the mistake he mentioned. I need to learn how to slow down on sidewalks with no room to carve??
Really well explained. I never thought foot braking is similar to pushing and have always been shit and scared at foot braking ig the speed is anything like fast. Going to practice with this kind of thinking. Other things too.
Yo dude, your tutorials are super well done and help a lot for beginners like me. With your videos, a gif from Reddit, and one more video from another creator I've learned to really longboard in a few hours a day over the course of 3 days! I had never been able to even stand up on a board without falling or grabbing something before starting, and I think I've come pretty far in not much time. Thanks so much and keep it up!
Dude .. thanks for these tutorials you are helping an old man take to the hills, respect
Thanks for the video. You've prevented this old man from faceplanting. You should include a link to those gloves.
I just got back into long boarding after a few years of not having a board, and this was really helpful. Thanks ^^
I just got my first board a couple of days ago and it's my second day of learning how to skate for the first time. I'm able to push off well now and I'm able to push off when I'm moving too. I just need to learn how to stop, this is where this video comes in. I'll have to work on riding the board with one foot because I'm not entirely used to that yet, so I'll have to work on it and then do what you said in this video. My confidence is building up
Finally someone explaining why I stumble instead of gradually stopping! Thank you so much!
Thanks a bunch! My confidence and fun factor went up thanks to this video
PLEASEEEE I JUST JUMP OFF LAST MINUTE WHILE PRAYING BECAUSE IDK HOW TO STOP-
thanks for the video. i’ve been jumping off and flying across the gound:)
I always had issues with foot braking. I was using too much of my front foot and had the issues you mentioned. 👍
this by far the best tut i've seen thanks!
I only needed the foot braking tip, well instructed, cheers dude
Your tutorials are great! I learned how to longboard in 1 day.
Great video dude. I start learning today your video helps a lot. 🤙🏽
I'm only finding this video in 2020 but I hope you're still active ! You're cool man I subscribed even though I'm still not sure weather I'll buy a longboard or a freebor atm ! Thanks for your help on foot breaking though I'm usually "kicking" the ground to brake which hurts a bit and is a bit unsafe I actually never thought of using this technique thanks for the tip ! =)
Thanks for putting this very helpful introduction to longboards.
Foot-brake: done
Advanced carving: done (very pleasant as well)
Sliding: missing (I'll work on that)
Did you get sliding?
@@aine1694 unfortunately not, health problems made it impossible for me to continue skating
@@Nessunego oof sorry
Dude~ I love these videos. Very informative, thanks for making them. However, I’ll be 54 in May and will pass on to earning to slide. Thanks for explaining how to put my foot down to stop though. I’ve been running off my board! LOL
I haven’t been able to do a single foot stop. I watched so many tutorials on RUclips and they very briefly mention to just put back foot next to front foot to slow down and unless I’m going super slow, it catches every time. I have to try putting my heel down first and slowly put down my entire foot but it sounds like a helpful suggestion.
Wish I watched this earlier 😂 icing my knee as I watch because it ate pavement trying to stop. Will be working on this tomorrow!
This is a really professional explanation, thanks!
Thanks for this video Spencer!
I swear I go faster when I try carving. I'm on my third day. I tried foot breaking but I'm still getting used to it. Then I tried carving and I needed a really big space to make my turns
...Same
I'm only just starting as well, though I'm finding I can turn a lot tighter than I thought I could, it's just about getting comfortable on the board and throwing more weight into it--though I do think I need to loosen my trucks a bit.
Try loosening your trucks so you can make tighter curves, if you feel comfortable with it!
Thanks for the informative video! Stay safe A and have fun!
I am like a sensei in footbraking now, sliding of carving won't top my foot brake.
One year later, you still think so? I believe you regret this comment
Thanks allot for this. I got addicted to snowboarding last year and want to keep it going. Learning on my own with no instruction is fun, but i couldnt ever stop, so thanks, ill look forward to viewing more of your instructional vids✌😎🏂
Hey man - excellent video. You do an excellent job of explaining things. I looked for a video such as yours because I'm learning how to use a longboard because I think it might help me with balance in snowboarding. Anyway, I've become comfortable with the longboard, but have no stopping skills. Hoping the foot-braking will help me some. By the way, I'm 55, so the bending to do the hand-brake thing simply isn't gonna work. Thanks again though.
The BEST Teacher EVER❣️❣️❣️
thanks for a well done and informative video.
Very nice video, well explained, good job!
Great videos, thank you for the tips!
Thanks for the videos! Helped me out!
Hey dude! Love this video! I’ve been longboarding only 3 or 4 months now, but think I’ve picked it up pretty well - your video definitely helped for sure. I was just wondering what board you have please? 🤙🏻
Well explained, thanks!
That was a great fn video, thanks for the close up demonstrations
Jus subscribed. Great info!
I bought one of these boards the other day, they are great
it took me a day to be able to comfortably ride my longboard. It's going on a week learning to footbrake but I finally think I made progress yesterday where I can feel the weight shift needed to brake. I can't go at high speeds and expect to brake but I'm mainly commuting now so I'm not going that fast anyway.
This guy is a pure enthusiast.
Im really going to try this, my goal is to so really big hills, but even the smallest ones i go really fast haha. I have to start somewhere. Thank you
these videos are really profesional and informative
Awesome tutorial. On my first day, I bombed down a bridge and was scared out of my mind. I survived.
one thing i had to figure out that no one talks about for footbraking, is that you want to index your foot with your board, put your foot right up to your board so that your ankle is touching it, that way its less likely to catch and be more consistent...kinda like how you index your heel on the floor when your using the gas pedal of a car so that your able to know how much pressure to put down
Good tutorial helped me a lot !
This was very helpful, thank you!
After about 4 weeks of getting my first longboard, I was hopeless at foot breaking. For the past week and a half, I've spent many hours riding my longboard one footed. I have a regular stance, so I've been focusing on riding goofy and balancing on my right foot (and my left foot to a lesser extent). Doing this has really improved my balance and foot breaking ability, and now I'm almost as good at riding switch as I am at riding regular.
I really want to learn how to slide (I'm interested in downhill), but I'm afraid of falling. I haven't fallen yet, despite skating down some hills (which was terrifying at times) and not being able to foot break. I'm also concerned about wearing down my wheels too quickly. I wish I knew, as a complete beginner, how to start practicing slides. I have a helmet, wristguards, and safety pads for my elbows and knees.
What ive been doing is just practicing little toeside kicks with my back foot at slow speeds while in a carve. you can actually slide alot this way if you decompress correctly. Basically, go into a hard toeside carve (even slow) with your back toe slightly off the toe side of the board. Decompress (go from low and knees bent and stand up still with knees bent) and then kick out the back with your toe side of your back foot. I've done a few around 90 degrees even at very slow speeds. It's gonna feel wierd at first but it's a safe option to get the feel of sliding and how your wheels will react.
My friend, YOU just taught me how to stop :)
yes
Very informative , thanks!
Third day out on my longboard. 42 year old long time snowboarder but never skater. I feel pretty comfortable making turns and balancing, but I still can't get foot braking!! When I start to get a bit more speed than I'm comfortable with, I tend to put my whole foot down. Definitely need more practice.
Went out with a friend today and board decided it didn't want me riding it while going down a hill. Part of it was not breaking correctly but also need stiffer bushings. Can't wait to hit the streets (hopefully not literally anymore) again soon!
Getting a new board soon for the 1st time trial. I know carving with snowboard. Looks like that feeling is similar in skateboard
You are so helpful dude
I live next to a looong stretched hill.
I drove all the way down and as I was going,
I soon realized: I was fast...
Very fast and I almost reached my house...
Well my only solution was to jump of,
start running,
falling down
cause my feet couldnt catch up with my current speed,
and slid 1 and a half meter on the road...
I still have a bruise after two years now (its just a slight discoloration if you compare it to the main color of my arm.
it's like a little pinkish patch.
It won't go away.
Well I came to my conclusion that I will never drive downhill with my longboard any time soon...not without slowing down.
Thank you so much for that advice
Lol lesson learned two days after flying off my board lol good times. Still alive!
Thank you this was very helpful
nice work man
Love this guy
When breaking at high speeds change your mentality from snowboarding to skiing: Dont slam, but try to get your foot on the ground as fast as possible to be able to stand on both again - dont be afraid of breaking just because you cant stand on one foot, you dont have to ^^
Edit: My balance gets up very high once the foot touches the ground even lightly, at a point where i dont even break - but i can start putting on more pressure from the point.
What kind of wheels should you have for sliding?
Awesome class! Thank you!
Nice video!
great video, thank you....is it a difference if you slide with a "normal" longboard or with a pintail ?
Thanks for the Pointers Bruddah😎👍 instant SUBSCRIBE
Thank You!
Great video. Any other recommendations for when using a penny board? I’m going to practice the foot breaking. Is advanced carving possible on a penny board?
I was the 10,000th like D:
This has never happened !! And thank you so much for the video and tips :)
@Jesse G...adjust your trucks until they're just about too much play in them...itll fix the sharp turn damper
Great video, thanks. :)
I have some soft wheels (arbor mosh), which are very smooth to go on. Is it also doable to slide them or are they too soft for that? Sometimes I don‘t have enough space to curve around a lot and also I am too fast for a foot brake. Kinda lost in space then :D
It’s a easy but good explaining
What board is that? I really like the look of it
Been longboarding a few weeks now. Can carve and footbrake (at very moderate speeds). Not really interested in downhill longboarding, but where I live it is so hilly, thinking of learning the Coleman slide just as a safety mechanism.
I love it, but why only 4 Tutorials i am sure we all could learn much more about sliding from you!
Do the next episode!!!!!!
Nice vid rly helpful thanks!
started out today and i literally just jumped off the board whenever i started to lose control. this is what i needed
Brigid Flanagan same i just got mine yesterday
Good video bro
do i need specific wheels to slide, and in your opinion what are the best wheels i can buy
Good video. What deck is that?
Nice thanks.
1:02 and that is how you ruin shoes in a week
At least in America where hospital bills are expensive af, I'd much rather go through some cheap shoes than break half my body because I couldn't slow down
FallenDust are you new to skating?
@@karmajaden2577 i don't really "skate" per say but I can ride a longboard
