Super excited for these back to the basic videos. This is gonna help motivate so many people learning as well as give confidence to those who use to skate years ago. I really like the practice steps you mention to help build that muscle memory. Thanks again for everything you are doing!
Been skateboarding my whole life, and skateboarding is a repetitive practice. I love to go back to these kind of tricks to warm up, cause i dont get to skateboard all the time. Lets go!!!!
It's been a long time didn't watch any braille videos, and I'm back to watch. This video such a refreshing and made me want to play skateboard again. Aaron, your last speech in this video was 🫶🏻
Hey, just started skateboarding yesterday. We happened to have some type of longboard in our garage (in nice condition). It has a curve in the back, but is flat in the front. I was wondering if getting a standard skateboard would be better for when I eventually start learning tricks? Also, your videos are so helpful since I'm just learning how to turn and push.
I think what you have is called a cruiser. I never had one and haven't skateboarded in 10 years but I would recommend getting a skateboard because the curve up on the tail is important for popping
Yeah, assuming your longboard is heavier than a regular board it would definitely be better to get a regular popsicle shaped board when learning tricks. Have fun skating 😊
This page is definitely being bookmarked. Every Saturday I practice at my local. There are times when there is no progress, and I literally feel lost. Another Saturday, another no improvement. What got me out of the funk was: to write down my goals, and to use a clicker to count the number of times I attempt a trick. Repetition is key. The first time I tried this was with 50 backside turns on a quarter-pipe. Holy cow, when I got to 20 I was already smiling. Now my whole session is like this, although my repetition varies from 20 to 30, depending on the pucker factor. Even the warmup gets the clicker. The clicker is in one of my hands while I do the trick. I always leave room to just skate around afterward too. This is were the practice pays off. I'm pooped, but with a grin. As a side note, I rarely look at the clicker for progress. And I often find myself enjoying the "trick" so much that I end up clicking more tricks than what my goal was. Float on my friends.
okay this is way too advanced for me .. I’m 61 and my friend who is a bit older than me tried to get me on a board .. I just remembered falling off when I was a kid in the seventies .. how do I actually stay on the thing
Honest truth, to learn balance a long board would help. Its wider and longer giving you a bigger footprint to balance on. Itll coast or cruise longer between pushing. It wont help with the mechanics of pivots or utilizing the tail of a skateboard, but itll familiarize your stability muscles with being on a board. The bootcamp playlist is great aswell, i longboard so im familiar with a board but even still the first video taught me valuable fundamentals for a skateboard. No shame holding a wall or hand rail to play with balance points.
What foot do you kick a soccer ball with? Typically if you kick soccer ball with right foot you want your left foot forward on the board pumping with right foot
@@AnsemSenpai In that case, it would be my right foot forward... Really can't decide, it's like some tricks i prefer right foot, and then other, the left.
When I started learning shove it, I didn't notice that I was learning on the wrong foot, I learned the first step perfectly and realized that I couldn't do the second one. I have no idea how to do this trick on the right leg, it seems so unnatural to me 😭
1. I've heard you guys call it a popcorn so many times now that it's just a popcorn to me. I like my popcorn salted. No butter. lol 2. Caveman. I'm pretty sure an Acid Drop is what you are calling a "roll off" I call those Acid Drops. I used to do those from close to 6 feet high.
You guys ever just have a mental session? Been skating for 20 years my progression was slow. But if you see my stuff I post now im overly comfortable and I cant seem to push past this level. Like id love to backside air like jd does so crispy like… kid is half my age and getting second at tampa … congrats 🎊JD
@@brailleskateboarding like visualize myself doing tricks in my head “mental” lol ill be at the park and just visualize myself instead of pushing myself lol less broken bones this way lol I can skate decent enough but my progression is slumped. Then again I cant skate every day in wet northeastern indiana… lol
