Over 50 here! Been skateboarding for almost 3 years now. I love it! Started learning with my son when he was 8. Now my 7 year old is starting to learn. Mad fun!
Noice!! 😄🤙
it's never to late to have fun😜
That's awesome! Glad you're having fun!
so skating made your son 4 years younger...
@@triokindo6042English not as strong as maths
47 and still skating strong. 50 is the new 30.
35 is the new 27
43 is the new 29
So true! Lets go 40 club
43 here and I still ride bmx, skateboard, and snowboard..... in my biking career I had 38 broken bones, hit by 3 cars, and wrecked 4 times at speeds over 45mph... in my years of skateboarding I've had many accidents including one that left me with 3 breaks in my left arm and 5 in my right hand, snowboarding hasn't been much different, torn rotator cuffs, back issues, sprains, etc... and just a part of being the human I am... 3 strokes, brain tumor, kidney disease, and RA. Despite all of that I ride as often as I can on anything I can. It turns out the heart and the mind are your strongest muscles. As long as my body holds out I'll be riding when I'm 90 😎
I recently just did my first ever handrail at age 37! Hope that inspires some people
🙌🙌🙌
sooo sick❤️❤️
Don't make the same mistake that I made. I am 49. Two years ago, I did not spend enough time reacquiring my balance and board control. I was able to do some decent ollies. So I tried to do a kickflip. Ended up going primo and falling down. This awkward landing on my board broke my foot at the arch. I had to use a knee scooter for 3 months and put no weight on my left foot. I will get back on someday soon. But I will take my time this go.
Get that balance and control first. Then slowly work your way up to tricks that involve any kind of jumping. That's just my two cents.
This is the stuff, why i started watching you guys. Love it!!!!! Saw your how to kick flip tutorial a thousand times the last 2 months and finally my 46 year old back foot lifted and landed a few of them last Saturday. Thank you for teaching the world to skate.
Awesome dude!!! Congrats on landing a kickflip!!! 🛹👊🏼
I'm still working on mine, hopefully someday soon I make it! Comments like yours are always great to see, inspire me to keep trying. So, THANK YOU
Dude, you gave me hope.. I can't wait to get that skill back
gotta give braille a huuuuge thank you, at 19 i decided to learn to skate and i tried to drop in a month ago but i was scared. u guys gave me the confidence i needed to sprain my ankle and both my wrists, get a concussion, puke, pass out, spit blood, and not be able to walk for 3 weeks
37 here. Was great in my teens. Got back into skating at 33. Fell hard thinking I could still do the same tricks and got bad elbow sprains. Learned real quick that you fall harder and take longer to heal in your 30s. Nice thing about skating in 30s is I wear a helmet and ankles braces and dont care what anyone thinks of me. While i cant do all the advanced tricks i used to do, still having a blast with what I’ve relearned. Great way to get exercise and decompress after a stressful day. Thank you for making videos like this for us older folks that need a different approach than a kid that can just “send it” and keep falling.
Strengthening during off times helped me. Some squats and regular stretching helps in the long run. Lets keep going till 70 😂
I'm 35 and have been at parks again because both my sons now started with riding scooters. I couldn't resist and got back on my board... Today I learned how twisting your knee hurts. I definitely need a more active lifestyle again and need to relearn a lot slower, what I once could do easily.
@tubeyoului everything is a process and everyday is progress. Lets get it.
@@intjtoph When you look at all the 70yo that are playing ice hockey, yes, it is very possible for us to skateboard in our 70s!
It’s a horrible, terrible idea to get “back into skating”. I injured myself enough in my teens and twenties, and I pay for it every morning. Start surfing, water is more forgiving than concrete and wood.
My 2 year old daughter saw my skateboard in storage and asked "wha dis dada?" When I said Skateboard she repeated it like 20 times we got out once last year before winter hit and just got back out this past weekend. It was so cool to have her ride with me and to hold her hand while she rides at almost 2 and a half....my old 7.75 ccs blank is sketching me out so I'm thinking it's time for an 8.75 to stay stable and dial in some ollies to be able to ride anywhere and everywhere. Definitely going to get her a 7.00 mini so we can ride together. I appreciate that you're not talking to me in this video but I'll be checking out the Ollie tips to relearn and clean up my rolling tricks. Thank you Aaron and Braille for keeping it simple and getting people skating. Make America Skate Again lol
I think 8.25 is absolutely wide enough. Wider boards are hard to kickflip.
I started 3 years ago at 27- I’m 30 now and can do 52+ flatground tricks, thanks to Braille!
I'm 27 at the moment that's pretty sick bro not gonna lie but instead of skateboarding I went to motorcycling haha
Nice! I’m 27 and I’m just getting started
Bro the Mr Rogers of skateboarding… thank you 🙏🏼 for getting back to the basics again.
I'm 33 years old. Seeing this video release finally convinced me to buy my first board. I roller bladed as a kid but have literally never even stepped on a skateboard. It came today and I'm following this video. Excited to work hard this weekend.
Let’s go!!!
How is it going? :)
what's up ?
Slow going but making progress. It rained a lot right after I started so my motivation got killed a little.
@@skybean Alright ! I'm 33 as well. Skated a bit as a teen. Getting back at it ! Let's do this 💪
This is exactly the type of video I need. I am turning 31 this year and I haven't stepped on my skateboard in years. I remember that I knew how to ollie and that is basically about it. So I would love to get in to it again. I get so inspired by watching your videos. I will definitely pick up my board again this summer and try.
Yes!!!! You got this!!
A new beginning! A new era! For braille and for me! ❤
Love this ❤️
I got my braille Golden Gate Bridge board last year. I skated most of my youth and never learned how to Ollie because they told me at the skate park. I can’t figure out how to Ollie that I can’t skate. I found your videos watch them for a year finally I got enough courage to get a braille board, and trying to learn how to Ollie again to say that after three days of practicing the basics, I finally got the board airborne! I can’t wait to get back out there and skate winter’s finally over skate parks finally not covered in ice and snow and you’re going back to the basics
I’m 32 years old and about to get to be 33 in less than 5 months!! 90’s people for life!!!😉👍🏼
Cant believe ive been watching you since 9th grade high school, glad to see the og tutorial vids coming out 🙏🏾 now im 25 starting to get back into it 💪🏽
I'm 33 and skated from 13 to 22 and stopped but I've been watching your videos for like 4-5 years now and I've been itching to get back to it.
NICE! Heading to 40!!! My Knees, Ankles, and lower back hurt. Run out of steam in 15 minutes and sweat like a wholly Mammoth. Flip tricks threaten my boys below and scare me. On my way to defeat by age, but I still love it!
46 here, been skating for 2 years now, it will get better, except for the running out of steam part. Skate or die dude.
Father time is undefeated
You are still out there shredding that's so that matters.
@@petergijsbrechts515444 and LOL your name sounds familiar , wonder why . Grtz from Belgium.
@@maikelvandeput7447 hahaha, greetings from Belgium right back at ya.
So glad to see you return to your passion for teaching. It's a noble endeavor.
Over 30 here! My daughter is 6 and just started skateboarding last week. I am learning with her! So scary but mostly fun! I love it:):) Thanks for the video. It was very helpful!
I'm 47, Found the Braille youtube channel about 6 months ago and its inspired me to get back on a skateboard 30 years after I got off the last one. Went to my first skatepark last week rolled down a steep bank twice, third time got bodied. Spent the next 45 mins battling that bank and could not commit, bailed every attempt. Videos like this provide real help to beginners. I'll head back to the park next week, knees bent weight forward.
Hey! I apreaciate that you didn't extravagate the tricks like you can Aaron, like that's how begginer tic-tacs looks like, like most people when show "easy tricks" they do them smooth like butter, without taking to consideration that person learning will struggle. I started skateing when I was 33 (sidenote - I wanted to do it since I was like 10 or 11, and unfortunatelly I kept pushing it for later), now I'm almost 39, pretty comfortable on the board and having fun learning tricks, but for sure there is a difference how we learn things when we get older and I think the most tutorials are aimed towards younger audition. The plan with the schedule is super important, as few shorter sessions work better than one long, as at least in my case muscle memory doesn't want to kick in as smoothly as in cas of my younger friends :P Also the point about spliting the progress on tiny bits work pretty well and give that satisfaction of learning something new, and maybe slow but - progression. And bending knees is IMPORTANT!
PS. That's the best kicturn for begginers I've ever saw :)
Thanks Aaron. 47 year tart here. Have restarted skateboarding here after a 30 year hiatus. You've been great help!
Just got back on a board on my 30th birthday and it’s all because of these guys that I can skate as well as I can already in just a few months went from just a sometimes Ollie to hitting boardslides and a small list of flip tricks
Over 30 and started Skating in January. Carefully followed all your beginners steps and now 4 month later im starting to get really comfortable. Small steps can take you far. Looking forward on anything ahead on this journey. ✨ Thanks Aaron! Gruesse aus Deutschland
This comment is very reassuring. I thought I could just jump back on my board after 20 years and was frustrated when I wasn't getting it right away. Knowing that it takes time but that you can get there by keeping at it is a real encouragement to keep trying and take my time.
@@tonymcawesome My pleasure. Sure your muscle memory will help a lot as soon as its readjusted to the 20y later bodyfeel. Be proud of every skill you unlock and keep on having fun skating. You got it, bro!
Loving the new content, Aaron! Getting back to your roots! ❤
More to come!
Skateboarding was my first great love before music took over. I put my board down when I was 12... picked up guitar/drum sticks. I'm 34 now and cannot wait to finally drop in!!! I am getting my sea legs back... If I can comfortably ride the board around the park, up and down on ramps, ollie, and maybe some curb grinding...I have fulfilled my dream. Anything more with the board is a bonus! This video gives me tons of confidence. You both are great teachers! Thank you!
been holding back on buying a board but this video is pushing me over the edge
Do it…
I don’t know who is attributed the following quote, but…
“We will all die; we don’t all live…”.
Do it and maybe start a channel and share the adventure so perhaps you’ll encourage others to do the same.
44 here, with Parkinson’s disease and arthritis in back! I skated street in the 90s in LA. Now I’m in Phoenix learning transition. It’s very different!
I wish you all the best!!!❤
Skated from age 9 to 24 then stopped when I fell off a ladder and hurt my back. I started back skating on a long board at 40 and had some fun for a while. I'm now 47 and my 4 year old son wants to learn to skate so I'm picking it up again. I am so glad I found your videos so I can get myself back on the board and teach my boy the correct way to skate. Invaluable stuff here. Thank you. ❤
Except i'll be 71. Haven't been on a board since mid '60s. Found a discarded Kryptonics board last month and have been furtively rolling around the house to the amusement of my dog (who seems to hate skateboards on the street, but he'll put forepaws up on this one?). anyhow, got a 12x18 polished concrete pad out back waiting for me to get PPE before putting your fine lesson to the test.
Omg, the video preview already blew my mind, I love it
Yooo! 29 here, turning 30 this summer. Havent skated since highschool and have been getting the urge to get back into it. These type of videos are def the move! Thanks Aaron
Yes! You already know I love the beginner videos aimed at us older skaters. If you’re getting older and thinking about getting back on a board or getting on for the first time, do it! There’s no time like the present. Plus skateboarding is such a great thing you can do for yourself physically and mentally. Let’s go! 👍
Loving these new videos. Great vibes I feel from watching this bro. Keep up whatever you’re doing because it’s pleasantly radiant.
Appreciate that
I am 49. I skateboarded for many years in the 1980s. Today my younger son (9) asked me about the board. Tomorrow we're going to the store. Life is beautiful. Greetings from Poland.
Going back to the roots. Love to see it.
I'm 35 and have tried to skateboard for almost 3 years straight in my very early teens. I struggled to just ride the board, and honestly never got it. I've never been able to Ollie. I was able to pop shuvit, and no joke I could flatland Casper varial flip on demand. That is it. I became so discouraged after 3 years with absolutely no progression, I gave it up. It would honestly be a dream come true to actually get a board and really progress. I'm extremely interested in getting a board and giving a serious effort at a second chance. If you want to help me, or think I may be a beneficial project to the channel, please let me know, and or help me. Thank you. I've always been a fan of skateboarding and your channel.
Came back with tutorials and the perfect one at that.
33 years old here. I needed this video! My 8 year old has been getting into skating. I haven’t touched a board in 15 years. This has given me some confidence to get back into it! Gonna try ripping it with the kid! Thanks for this!
You are so welcome
I’m back on my board again at 38, and it’s so much fun, thanks Braille! One thing I needed to relearn was how to fall/bail, it’s definitely it’s own skill.
Thank you! The perfect video at the perfect time! ❤
A lot of these principles remind me of climbing, please put out many more of these, A full series of tutorials would be awesome, best wishes!
Bro this video was absolutely needed. Great content
Yep that's me! I'm 31 and just started skating again after a 10 year break. I never learned Fronside or backside 180s or front shove. I also learned to kickflip wrong and was super inconsistent. Now I am learning correctly and I'm so much more consistent with my basic tricks than I ever was before! This video rocks!! Thanks for supporting us older skaters. I'm teaching my little one to skate with your videos as well. We are having fun!
Thanks Aaron, i am already 32, and I am starting skating after your videos. So much fun to realise i can do this inspite of age!
Aaron, I’m 36. I’ve been watching you guys for a while now. You guys got my old man bones on a board again. Let’s skate!!!
You’ve caught my attention! Welcome back! 👏👏👏
this is a better type of braille, it feels like they are growing the channel up in content. I don't feel like a child anymore or embarrassed while watching this video. it feels great keep up the hard work Aaron!!!!
I remember going to the skatepark at age 19 when I was was first learning to ride, with some younger guys. This one dude is like "Just drop in on this bowl" and I'm like... "Okay" and hurt my wrist. It's so true, don't let experiences like that stop you. Skateboarding has pain that comes with it but it's pretty worth it.
Love it. Keep pushing
I’m 43. My daughter started skating classes about 9 weeks ago, after a long agonising decision process, i started skating at the local park 2 weeks later. I’m now going to the park every day. I’m going down some pretty steep banks, getting kick turns on the slopes (sometimes even getting a full 180 in one go) I can do a tiny Ollie standing still. I feel pretty comfortable skating around the streets. Still got heaps to learn, but I love it so much. I’ve lost weight and I feel strong. It’s easily the most addictive exercise I’ve ever tried. Wish I’d started 20 years ago !
such a great video idea!
33 and just got back into it a few weeks ago. Been progressing really well since finding the Braille channel.
I turned 30 in November, wanted to get into skating when I was younger but fell into the trap of my parents buying me one of the cheap Amazon style boards so could never pop it and gave up.
Made a proper board a few years ago, main barrier I've found in the UK is the weather and how bad the roads are suited to skating. Will definitely be revisiting this in the summer when the weather gets a bit nicer, my aim is to learn to kickflip in the next year!
Thank you so much Aaron and Nigel, this was definitely a video I needed to see. I used to skate a lot in middle/high school and recently decided I wanted to pick it up again at 37. I'm a lot heavier now than I was back then and I used to skate mongo so trying to get back to skating and trying to re-learn proper technique has been hard. I picked up Andy Anderson's board hoping it would better handle my weight and it has been frustrating trying to even stand on the board without getting in my head and freaked out about it. I need to take your advice, slow down, re-learn the basics, and eventually I can work my way back up to doing some of the stuff I used to 20 years ago. Thanks again Braille!
Great video, thank you Aaron! I’m 53 and my 10 year old son has gotten into skateboarding so that means I’m now learning as well. Your videos are a great help for both of us - cheers!
I just started skating at 42 - it's the most fun, terrifying and humiliating thing I've done in years. Am hoping to be able to tic tac by my 43rd birthday in May. Thank you for this video!
Killing it as always! great video
nice to see these Braille
> 30 y/o and torn cruciate ligament from skating (shove-it 😄) here. Hopefully I will get back on track. Thanks for this video, the warmup part is definitely recommended!
Do more of the fun stuff like challenges,floor is lava,spin the wheel,weird boards,visiting/rating skateparks,street skating,games of skate,tournaments,persistences,etc.
Being 42 I needed this video
I’m 62 start learning skate boarding.thanks for your trick I love it .
That is awesome!
🤣🤣🤣 I’m 62 as well. Just started learning !
I'm 35 and started going to the skate park with my son. So far most of the 12 year olds can outskate me. But I have been having a blast just watching myself get better slowly. Getting over the fear is probably the best part, it's like you are unlocking things you never thought possible.
all the beginner pointers in one video, nice one! And Nigel can't say it enough, lean towards the direction you're moving to. Doing the things in the video is all you need to get comfortable on a board. Tictacking is a very low energy and gratifying way of moving forward, and when you get hold of it you can actually gain a lot of speed with it. After all of these years I still have a lot of problems switching to fakey, I can go from fakey to normal no sweat rolling back from a ramp, but normal to fakey I fail consistently. It's something I really feel I need to get over, my monster walk is terrible and I don't feel the same forces attempting it stationary. Not sure if I'm one of the few with this issue, but if you have some pointers on that in a future instruction video it would be great. I know I need to swing my upper body first but I just instantly feel out of balance when I lift my back wheels to switch, something I don't feel at all doing fakey to normal.
Great vid idea, never seen no one talk about it, Aaron with the W
Picked up a skateboard for the first time in 20 years yesterday because my son (8yo) wanted to give it a try. This showed me how I was too focused on tricks. Really looking forward to just learning to cruise around together. Thanks
Learned to downhill longboard 13 years ago. Gave it up after a year when I came home from college. Picked up a popsicle board last year. 32 and I’ve got a few decent Ollie’s and close to getting nose slides! Your videos definitely inspired me to get on a board again!
Hey Aron, I just picked up skateboarding again for the first time in well over 24 years. Im currently 30, started skateboarding again last year, and am excited to keep progressing in my skateboarding with you and the braille team. 😊
Great video!
I needed this after suffering a nasty fall a couple of years ago skating and now slowly getting back into it! I bombed a nice mile-long hill that was like a bunny slope. Felt great!
I bought a board when i turned 30, never really got into it the way I planned due to relationship issues. Now, 3 years later, I'm picking it back up, learning the basics, tried some tic tacs, almost died (not really, it just felt like it when i lost balance for half a second), just learning to ride, and it feels great. And in part, this is all because I discovered this channel.
Great tips
Dynamic stretching 🙃 love you guys!!
Love that you ran with the idea😁
Also would be cool to see some beginner stuff based around a curb. I don’t have a park nearby but everywhere has a curb!
Yeah, "that's me" - I stopped skating for eighteen years after doing it for maybe two and the only trick I was able to land was a very basic ollie (not even over an obstacle). Now I'm back in the game while being 34, beginning to feel comfortable landing my shuv-its and pop shuv-its and really feeling much more in control when learning the very basics properly thanks to your videos. Keep it real Aaron ✌🏻
Much love! Lets get it 🔥
Please make this a series
👍 also liked Nigels inputs 👍
This video is beauty in its purest form
Awesome video, Aaron! I'm 32 and haven't skated since my teens, but this type of video truly makes me want to grab my board again. I even bought new bearings for the wheels but still haven't got to change them, just gotta take that first step!
Now, regarding this video in particular, you should check with the cameraman (I guess it must be Derek) regarding the shaking of the camera. It's pretty noticeable. I know Gabe used to film on the Onewheel and that helped a lot to the smoothness of the filiming. Maybe you guys could consider using something like that.
What!! You did not just upload this!! I’m turning 30 and I want to get back into skating!! Lol!! What a perfect video!! Yay!!
✌️❤️
39 year old goofy foot here, just started up again a couple weeks ago and been having so much fun. So many more parks than when I was a teenager.
started because of y’all at 22-23 and although i feel ancient near all the new 10 year olds skating, it’s still super fun
So good
I'm 28 years old and picked skating back up in 2021 after not skating for like 15 years. I was doing well for a few months taking it slow, but then I hit a crack in the pavement JUST the wrong way and fell on my back. I hurt my tailbone pretty bad and thought i broke it, but x-rays showed it was just bruising. I haven't been back on the board since. Trying to build my courage back up!
Just started again after a break of about 45 years, and back then in the late 70's it was my form of transport, didn't have a bike so it was my board that I rode everywhere. So although I can ride it OK I never learnt any tricks, so just recently I have been to a couple of skate parks and they are so daunting for an old bloke. So I am taking very small baby steps, but it is so enjoyable and loving it every time.
I'm 32 and have been wanting to skate since I was 6 or 7 and saw Rocket Power for the first time on Nickelodeon. It became my favorite thing but I'm so uncoordinated and have balance issues I was always scared to try, you've inspired me over the passed few years to really give it a shot for real. I know its gonna take a while, maybe even a few years, but my ultimate goal is to be able to drop in and air out. If I can get to that point I will be so incredibly happy. It just looks like so much fun. I'd love it if you guys did a new vert focused series. Maybe a new road to vert or something like that. Seriously, you guys rock, and Aaron...thank you so much. If I hadn't found you and Braille I never would have even tried.
Im 35 and im starting to learn for about a month now, and riding and getting comfortable in my is one of the assignments our group leader gave me,
Great
I was getting the same back pain when i started at 39. Found doing the horse stance 3x a day helped alot
Love the move back the your roots have been watching you guys forever the my first video was the second time you taught jd keep going strong! Sadly I haven't skated in years
perfect!
Bro, yes, this is the Braille I miss. I skated in hs, i'm 40 this yr. I have a board I bought 2 years ago now that I've since used for a total of 10 minutes lol. But maybe now I can slowly relearn, and the right way!
34 year old here love this topic might get me to skate .... Hey braille feel like sending a board to the Navajo Nation ! Lol
I'm 32 and been learning for almost a year because of Aaron. His tips work wonders, I'm actually teaching several others to skate currently. All over 25 too.
Going back to the roots!
60 here. Started skating at 9. Skating again after a long absence. Building a small half pipe inside my barn (7 foot radius, 5 feet tall--shout out to Billy Rohan's mini ramp build video from 2010). Thanks for all the help, Aaron and Nigel!
You posted this at exactly the right time, I'm 40 now, and my little girl got a skateboard for Christmas, and I just didn't feel like she was getting the right help while my partner and I were both on foot, so I ended up getting a skateboard too! Your video has helped me get started, and already I can see the improvement using some of the tips in this video. So, thankyou, and here's to months and months of practice to get at least semi decent!
Awesome! Ill make more of these videos. Im aiming to make beginner and intermediate intermediate tutorials each week. Stay tuned
Love it. 35 here and I've been watching your videos for many years now, but I've never actually tried to skate.. but I plan to.
hey man, I just ordered my new skateboard yesterday to get back into it. Im now over 30 and have been skating in my teens and early twenties alot, but then completely stoped. Due to a chronical illness my fitness level is at an all time low, but I hope that with skating I can get abit healthier again. I really enjoy the video, please keep it up, Im looking forward to more. Subbed
