I’m 31 years old. I haven’t skated in over 15 years. Watching y’all makes me remember how’ me and my buddies would go skate every day. And even sneak out for night skates. Makes me wanna get back into it. Just to remember what it feels like. 👍 love all the videos.
I'm 36 and started again when the first COVID 19 lockdown began (~April 2020) after a break of 16 years. At the beginning it was crazy and I couldn't do the easiest tricks but after a couple of month I really improved and even learned a few new tricks. It IS possible!
I am 33 and I found out a new and first skateshop was open during the covid. So I walk into the shop and pick up a set of skateboard after 15 years off it. Feel so right to come back to the community.
I'm 44 years old..born in 76. I skated from the ages of 13 to 15 almost everyday. My Dad even built me a half pipe. Being from Manchester England in 1992 roller skating with wide Axel's became much more popular and skateboarding took a nose dive. I switched to roller skating until I was about 16. The roller rink in Wigan then got closed down. I then bought a mini and completely stopped all skating. College, uni, years go by. Now due to Covid, lockdown, boredom and your videos my daughter 11 son 13, son 18 and myself have all bought new boards and areskateboarding and I cannot believe 30 years later I can still Ollie. My daughter who is a fantastic gymnast learned how to Ollie in about 5 mins, it took me 5 weeks. We are having so much fun. A few things have changed, noone seems to use rails on their boards, dropping in seems way scarier and the trousers are skinny! Bring back the baggies I say!
When I was growing up couldn't skate in Manchester council banned it luckily I lived Middleton and my dad took me to Bolton Bones every Sunday then my second run I took myself to Manchester Central skatepark now in my third run I go Graystone in Salford
Hi thanks for the tutorial, when I try to do an Ollie on concrete the board go flying into from underneath me. I was wondering if there is any tips you have
My ollies are improving slowly, I can get it in the air but even after sliding my foot, I can't get it leveled in the air My main problem is that, I can't focus on both feet at the same time When my back foot does it properly, my front foot doesn't And when my front foot does it properly, my back foot doesn't
just graduated university finally getting back into skating after a 5 year hiatus. you guys came so far since i first started its given me the motivation to finally learn some actual tricks. almost landed my first heelflip today but had to come and watch this because im just not getting enough air time.
Thank you Braille Skateboard Company for teaching everyone like me. I can finally recall how I used to ollie bigger and better. Your tutorials are insanely awesome.
I keep losing balance before the ollie by leaning forwards or backwards like chest and back not tail and nose. Could it be because one of my bushings is cracked?
