3:50 "Dumb little nose stalls" :( Broke my heart I practiced those for like 30 mins yesterday at the park! I am only 1 month in though. And I gotta mention I also practiced rock to fakie's on a 3 ft 1/4 ramp....that was my accomplishment for the day had to mention it cause I was feeling a little inadequate there from your comment. :P
Don’t feel discouraged over something someone said, everyone progresses at their own pace, those little nose stalls are a stepping stone into full on nose slides, so don’t worry :>
Keep progressing and you’ll get why he thinks they are “dumb little stalls”. I thought that comment was a bit untasteful as well, as they can be challenging for beginners still. Don’t let someone who’s further than you deter you, they also practiced hours at tricks they now consider dumb easy.
he is an experienced skater and so nose stalls are dumb to him because he’s been doing them for so long. This video isn’t for beginners so I think it was somewhat appropriate. But I hope you weren’t too discouraged. I wonder how you’re doing well now.
Refuse Dreamz I think it's easier to 180 out of boardslide because your body is already moving that way so it makes more sense to keep moving in the same direction than to try and pull it back to regular. Just my opinion though
You can use counter-rotation technique. When you are about to slide off the rail, you can twist your shoulders either direction, and your hips will turn the opposite direction. This way you can land very clean, to regular or fakie as you desire. For better understanding, just try jumping straight up (without a board) and do a late 180.
Love all your vids , I just started skatebord I'm 23 in 2 days ( just 2 h per day ) I can do an proper ollie but 1 time out of 5 or 10 haha anyway good job , and hey can you put the name of the song that starts in every video like in this one
Emil Billeskov Poloski I'd say it depends on where you live. If you have a lot of coarse asphalt I'd go with softer wheels. My 99s doesn't work for me at all outside a park where I live :)
A good soft wheel is anywhere from 87A to78a. Soft wheels help you to roll over rocks, pebble, and other small debris on the street. The bigger the wheel the easier it is to roll over things like cracks. It kinda depends where you live and what you want the wheels for. If you just want it for cruising, transportation, or bombing hills get a soft wheel that's around 56mm to 60mm and maybe lower then 85a. If you still want to be doing lots of tricks you can get a smaller wheel around 52mm-54mm and around 85a-95a. I recommend checking out OJ Wheels. They have a great wide selection on soft wheels. Spitfire, Bones, and Powell are other good companies to check out as well. But I think OJ has the best variation when it comes to soft wheels.
yeah, pretty much what the others have said. soft wheels are great for all terrain and rough ground but hard wheels are good for tech and most street skating situations. i personally like bones stf but i also hear spitfire formula 4 are great too
hey thats a good idea! my heelflip video is one of my least favorites haha. i'll have to get them down good again and then i'll try to make a new video for it. and fakie bigspin is a great idea, i will get to that one very soon. thanks for the suggestions!
The one thing I hate is winter. There are no indoor skate parks near me and a skate park is far away so I ist street skate but the snow is the worse lol spring is soon though ü
Good list, I like doing slappy nose picks. I haul ass towards the curb, put my front truck up on it and my speed pivots me around. Sometimes I'll make it to nose blunt, but have trouble getting out of it
Really helpful video, going out to try them now. Im a beginner to some degree and reckon this will give me more confidence, and add a few more tricks to my bag.
Bruhhhhhh. I was skating my penny board and for some odd reason I tried to do a pop-shove it.I landed bad and the board bounced up and hit me in the forehead.Had to get 5 damn stitches
