I'm 41, skating everyday with my 13yo son. Was showing off my shuvits to my family and primo'd for the first time ever, almost (died!) put my head through a glass cabinet. Love The Giger Man!
You're a beast and learning from you feels like such a privilege. i really like the way you explain things to beginners, it made it very clear to me! Looking forward to learning more beginner tricks from you :)
Back in the late 80's/ early 90's when I was skating you'd lay out a small fortune on a magazine and it would have a page with three or four photos and about one paragraph telling you how to do a trick. I'd have killed for this level of help. Great work.
The most frustrating thing when learning to skate is how easy these tricks look but they're incredibly hard at the beginning and some days it feels like I will never land one. The first few weeks/months are definitely the toughest both physically and mentally.
I havent touched a skateboard in a few years but after watching this i feel like i could get back on and have a better pop shuvit than when i last was skating
for frontside shuvs i put my back foot in the bottom pocket with my front foot similar to a heelflip but more straightened, then do the opposite of a pop shuvit (front foot goes back, back foot goes forward) and i got them consistently doing it that way. if anyone decides to try this let me know if it helps 👍🏼
Your advice about putting your back more in the centre of the tail really helped me last night and stopped the board from flipping! Landed more consistent ones than I have ever! Thank you
Thanks for the great video! I'm 34 and haven't skated in 15 years. Found your videos and they actually made me want to start skating again. Used to to know a good amount of tricks but unfortunately skating is not like riding a bike. After 15 years I lost all my muscle memory and my body is different (damn aging joints!) so it feels like starting all over again. I tried to do an advanced trick too early and sprained my elbow really bad, 6 months to heal completely. So now I'm taking it slow. Luckily I am able to get these tricks back fairly easily by watching your videos to help build that muscle memory back quickly. Thanks!
I use to be the master of them , was my favorite trick for years till I found 360 flips , I loved how I could catch them in the air and bone it out . Very important trick to learn because it helps you learn other flick tricks
Thank you so much for these tutorial videos, Jonny! I'm starting here in honor of Elaine Shallcross at shuvitcancer; I picked up a skateboard for the first time in my life at 36 and am working to get a shov down by July 10.
@@heyyou7536 Unfortunately not yet, I had to pivot to helping a few friends and family members out during the lockdown and can't risk any ankle or knee injuries for a bit. I've been cruising on my longboard, and hope to get back to the shuvits soon.
Yo really liking these videos Jonny! And I appreciate the fact that u go over things for the more advanced skaters. I've been able to pop shuv for a long time but recently been working on popping them as high as possible. Thanks great tips!
word of advice for anyone starting, you will go primo a lot. You will die a lot. On every trick. If you actually want to skate and improve you need to accept the fears that come with it. It is hard and you will get hurt.
Johnny worked a lots and lots on his basics. Thats what most people forget ,,,,dont rush tricks give time to perfect them all... a deep respect for Jonny from holy city varanasi 🙏
Love u Jonny u have helped me so much I started skating when the lockdown happened and because of u I can already ollie, shoving, pop shovit, ollie onto curb. U are an amazing teacher man keep doing what ur doing! Much love homie ❤🛹
This is really helpful in relearning everything. Even back 10 years ago when my flatground was good and I was able to skate staircases and handrails my foot placement was wrong. Just hoping I can get my flatground and ledges back again. Thanks for these tutorials they're helping me get back into skateboarding! Can't wait to buy your pro model once I'm more comfortable learning on the 10 year old relic I'm using to relearn skating
Great work Jonny, I really enjoy your videos. I wish I had RU-vid & your instructional videos when I was first skating back in 1990. As a mature skater of 43, you're really inspiring me to get back into it and tidy up my technique. Thanks again and big-love from Australia!
Jonny, thanks for the Pop Shove It tip about the back foot placement. I have been learning a lot from you, (thank you!) Your skateboarding is a awesome you are a great pro!
I just started skating again this past week after about 15 years and this and your kick flip video has helped gain the confidence and showed me a super easy way to do these tricks. Thank you man!
I found it super useful to consciously think about pushing my front foot counter when doing it. The push down and scoop are gentle, but the front foot really helped with moving it in front of me and catching the board too.
Thank you soo much. Really good video. I started skating again after 9 years pause. Skated every day for hours when I stopped. Pop shove it was my best trick pop wise. I could do it higher than my waist high. Today I made some good progress relearning how to pop my tricks this high.
Jonny, i miss so much your tutorials! They are so clear and easy to understand. Maybe this time FS Pop Shuv it? FS or BS 180? I'm beginner, so this could help me a lot :)
This is literally the most informative video on this trick. I've never seen anyone explain how differently the pop and shuvit footwork is. Using your front foot to get the board around on a shuvit and putting your foot slightly on the side. And with the pop shuvit moving your foot towards the center so it doesn't pressure flip. Pretty much all the videos I saw say the same foot position for both.
I don't skate, but watching jonny explain tricks and what goes on feet and technic wise, is really informative and on point, facts and tips for free for everyone - I'm sure a lot of shove it will be popped higher and better in the next time! stay healthy!
These tutorials are great, they will no doubt become classics of this genre on RU-vid. It's only because I believe this and I'm a long time supporter that I'm going to annoyingly point this out, 'still standing' means you were standing before and remain standing. 'standing still' means you are standing and not moving. We all know what you mean, it reminds me of how skateboard bruh thought POV stood for 'position of view.' Looking forward to more of these!
The thing with "high" tricks: You just gotta pop & jump just hard enough with the RIGHT timing. Also Jonny makes sure his front foot goes straight to the bolts and stops the board from rotating and makes it easier to land on your board with your back foot too. btw, great vid as always Jonny!
THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUU !!! Watching Ur videos all of them, and (i'm a french guy) you ride me to keep back my skate (anyway i've gotta buy a new one 'cause i've only a good cruiser "firefly" and a shit of skate with hard plastic wheels....) soooo wanna start over from zero and that's why i thank u as u're a pro but u help beginners too and that's all thanks to U that a lot of people goes back to skate
Dude, i just set upmy board with tensor mag lights after riding nothing but indys at any point in my life and i love the pop but i couldnt consistently land shuv its....either my board was flipping or i was over shooting the landing spot. Finally started to get them but it was really discouraging and when i was missing i was thinking where is the giger tutorial on shuvits since he has done them on other rudimentary tricks, clearly a fortuitous thought lol. Awesome video as usual, and as ive said before say thank you so much for inspiring me to start skating again after over a decade of not skating.
I’ve known to Ollie and just learned front 180s. I had no motivation to learn pop shuvs, but the way Johnny pops them so high makes me really wanna learn them
thank you so much for teaching me how to pop shuvit high!!! thank you so much I love your channel!!!! I have created my channel to track my skateboarding progress and improve my skills
