      i liked skating but it demands too much perfection in one's surroundings
      try BMXing/mountain biking
      you won't get dropped by a pebble smaller than your pinkie nail which means you can concentrate on progressing

      boredomes there are skaters that skate with one or no legs. It’s really inspiring that despite their disabilities, they refuse to give up on the things they love. Skate on and don’t get discouraged from things you love!

    I just wanted to say that I started learning how to ride a skateboard less than a week ago. And sometimes I feel like I spent 2 hours, and didn’t learn anything. But it’s important to remember this.
    Sometimes it feels like you got even worse , when in reality, you just start spotting mistakes from yesterday.
    I’m 28, and I’m gonna keep pushing myself. Have fun 🤘

    Hi. I’m a 12-year-old girl who has vision loss. I first started skateboarding in Spring, 2019, after finally getting a skateboard for my 9th birthday. This video taught me how to skateboard, and I find it really funny that this channel is called BRAILLE Skateboarding! Braille is a way of reading and writing using dots popping out of a paper, for those who don’t know, and it’s used by blind/visually impaired people, and though I hate it, I use it too. So thank you for helping teach me how to skateboard!! :D
    Update in 2024: I no longer hate Braille. Credit for that to my awesome teachers :D

    I’m learning this now while still 16 so that when I go to college, I can travel via skateboard 🛹
    Edit: I’m too dumb for college so my mom returned the skateboard.
    Edit edit: 5-14-20.
    I’m 17 now, and I might be smart enough for community college so I just might invest in buying a skate board again! My mom doesn’t believe in me tho haha (laughing thro the pain helps).
    Anyways thanks for the likes and words of motivation!
    Y’all are gonna hate me for making another edit buuuut....
    I might not go to college after all. Ugh I really wanted to gooo. Why does it cost so much :\
    I’m sorry for getting any hopes up :-/
    Maybe I’ll make another edit if any thing changes. But for now, no college, no skateboarding. Stay safe during this covid-19!

      It's really just practice. I kept my board in my living room for months before I even started actually trying to learn. I would just stand on it and hold on to the back of my couch. I'd just play around and eventually, I didn't have to hold onto the couch, then I was able to actually push a little bit and move a super short distance lol. I brought it outside the second the snow melted and I still suck, but I can actually push and ride a little bit. I just get scared of going fast though, so I bail lol.

    day 1: pretty bad, im scared to move a lot because i dont wanna fall. i learned to push, but i cant move my foot sideways when im done pushing. i also found out i am a regular. skateboarding his fun, and i hope this will become a hobby, because i enjoy it a lot
    DAY 2: i got better at pushing and balancing and i fell a few times, but i didnt let that stop me from practicing. im not really that scared to fall anymore. when i was practicing i fell off my board and my skateboard hit my ankle. it hurt so bad that i had to stop practicing for the day. i can see im improvement.
    DAY 3: can definitely see improvevement. i went to the park with my siblings and skated and we played pokemon go . after working out i practiced ollies
    THREE WEEKS": its been a while lmao. ive learned to shuv it, cant do ollies but i feel very comfortable on my board, ive been riding it everyday since i first got it and i think i wont ever drop skating. falling is second nature to me lol its all i do, but thats apart of the learning experience. if you havent tried skating, then what are you doing?! try it out its amazing!

    I’m starting to learn to skateboard! I’ll update you on my progress
    Day 1: I practiced normal riding, can now ride sideways and make leaning turns going moderately fast. Downhill still scares me though
    Day 2: I learned a kick turn going at slow speeds
    Day 3: I’m starting to skate faster and went to a parking lot to practice skating better
    Day 4: got kick turns both ways
    Day 5: wanted to look cool while riding so I learned a running start and picking up the board cool
    Day 6: practicing riding around my neighborhood, really bad though
    Day 7: really really bad
    Month 1: Haven’t died yet
    Month 2: I’m still pretty bad, but can go down hills/tiny ramps and do a lot of things with kick turns. I learned the 180 both ways and can tic tack and walk the dog. I’m working on my manual and ollies currently
    Month 3: The weather is getting warmer so I’m hoping to skateboard more often. I went to a skatepark the other day and got cussed at by a little kid because I fell where they were skating 😂
    1 year: This summer I learned to some easy tricks on ramps. I can go down some larger ramps now and I can also Ollie up a curb and I am working on kick flips!

      Fuck em, they already know their shit so to make fun of someone whose just beginning or starting out means they only seen pro skaters on RUclips and aren't confident in their own abilities or it could also just be part of the "Newbie Hazing Ritual"
      It happens regardless what you do or start to do. People talk shit because they know their shit, shut them out and show them what's it's about!
      Plus I believe the way you ride regardless what board it is, it's an extension of you, learn on your own time the most important part is feeling confident on your board and learning with it, you build a bond with something that is carrying an essence of you, a tool for a very personal and descriptive form of expression.
      Aggressive riders will be more extreme with their talk and how they ride
      Peaceful riders tend to go with the flow and is traditionally the more cali skater hippie style
      But there are subcultures with in the skater community and you will run into all of them eventually.
      Let the aggressive skaters continue to be them and just be you.

  • @DartWinger

    Braille Team, You might wanna pin this one. Tips for people with no balance like me.
    For those looking to learn that have never stepped foot on a skateboard before, like myself a year ago, I have some things I did that helped me a ton even before getting the board really rolling. For me it was all about balance. Once I gained some balance it really became much easier.
    Any of these you can hold on to something to start with to assist you.
    1). Simply step on and off the board, you can start on carpet if you're worried about the board slipping out from under you. Work on just getting on the board, and also getting in "riding" position like you just pushed.
    2). Get in a small area like a 3 foot section in between a couch and a foot stool or your bed the wall and a pillow againat it or something and rock back in forth, weight on your toes, weight on your heels. Also shift your weight side to side. Again the idea is comfort if you're worried about slipping out.
    3). in that small 3foot area, stand one footed and try to balance yourself. You don't have to be able to hold it long but it will help you with balance. A lot.
    The key here is to gain balance, and some early muscle memory.
    It doesn't take much time before you adjust to the feel of the board under you and then off you go with more confidence when you start pushing and riding!
    Lastly, a very personal opinion of mine. Learn switch up front. I truly believe doing this early will only benefit you later in your progression and add a lot more fun instead of suffering trying to learn it later in the game. I learnt to push ride and stop using both sides right out of the gate last fall and I'm at the point now that I don't care what side I ride on. (tricks are a different matter however. lol) Even if it's within the first month or 2 I would recommend going for it.
    Hope this helps the balanced challenged!

    I just got my first skateboard for my bday. Didn't use it for a month because I was also moving to a new country. So I had to disassemble my board to get it on the plane.
    Didnt pay too much attention to how it was set up. So once I settled to my new place first thing I assembled the board. But I'm such a newbie that I just tightened everything to the max. Went for my first ride and I COULD NOT TURN AT ALL! Very stiff. That lean turning was nearly impossible. So had to look up videos and thanks for explaining that the trucks have to be a little loose for lean turning. As simple as that sounds...it might help a lot of us. Gracias!!!
