I broke my wrist. 

A broken wrist will never stop Sponsored skateboarder from the san francisco bay area Aaron Kyro

- Have healthy fear - Take Baby Steps - Build confidence - Push your limits

Gotta respect the fact that he’s so positive about this situation

Nah g, this ain’t just Aaron explaining how he broke his wrist. It’s Aaron hyping me up for vert, get well soon

I own a skateboard because of braille giving me the confidence that I can actually do it, despite starting at 27 years old. A lot of the time I worry about how I look, being older but very incompetent, but then I look at braille and how supportive they are of new skaters no matter who they are and it gives me the strength and courage to do it. Thanks Aaron, thank you all members of Braille, you have given me more than you think. I hope you can continue to do what you want to do for as long as you want.

Title: let me tell you how I broke my wrist Aaron: let me tell you about my whole childhood and also how the warehouse was made

I used to skate flat ground and street when I was a teenager. I learned how to skate vert for the first time when I was 15. One day, I was doing great all day. I broke my wrist on the last trick before I was about to leave. That stopped me from skating again at that time. Today, I’m 37 and just started skating for the first time since that day, 22 years ago. Your videos have inspired me to keep at it, and get back to where I was as a teenager. If I had only had these videos as a kid! You’re a great dude, Aaron keep it going. SEND IT!

braille army inspired and encouraged me to go down the quarter pipe and my hip still hurts but i’m determined

I broke my wrist when I was 10 by skateboarding. Note to self: Don’t go down a steep hill when your just learning how to stop-

That early JD footage is adorable AF. Also, Aaron Kyro is a gift to the world of skateboarding. Thank you for all of it.

I know several people that broke their neck playing football when they were a kid, then people have the nerve to tell me that skateboarding is to dangerous

People quit when they fall. I mean you fall a lot but you can stop for the day. I was longboarding and when i fell i hit my head and arm. I went to the ER room because my head was bleeding. I didn't quit skating or longboarding but i did stop for a week so I could heal. And that's ok to do. Just don't quit. Take time to heal but don't quit.

watching this footage here, of JD skating various bowls, he is even BETTER than what we have seen. the kid is the TOTAL package.

Been watching Braille since I got my board last week after returning to skating after a 10 year hiatus. Super excited to go to the park for the first time tonight

J.D. is such a well rounded kid , his parents keep him grounded , great Parenting . You guys at Braille don’t let your wile side rub off on him , ok maybe a little bit . Push him, encourage him , learn from him .

The vert skating is a HUGE reason I came back and started watching these videos again. Something super new and interesting. Stay strong and keep pushing skating!

I do have to admit this is the most determined I’ve seen Aaron in a long time

Aaron: “so here’s how I broke my wrist... MANY years ago, when I was 10, me and my operation Ivy shirt.....”

Loved the video Aaron! You have succeeded many times over at getting random people who never thought they would to skateboard, I'm one of them. Keep up the great work!

That is amazing Aaron! I am so happy you are learning something new and having so much fun with it! Extremely inspirational. You have inspired me a lot and it was amazing meeting you and the team in 2019. As a 35 yo it gives me a lot of courage. Hope you heal soon and wishing you the best of progress and success!! Best teacher ever!! 100%!!!

Aaron going over the bars on the one wheeler is such a funny clip

I started skating again because of you Aaron I started one year ago now I am 20 and progressing all because of you Aaron

Keep on keeping on aaron, every since you started your vert journey the content has been more skateboarding and less “we need to make a video” ideas and im grateful. Plus Gabe hasnt been yelling as much which im also thankful for

Man, watching your videos is so inspiring. I really wish there was a channel like your for blading.

dang. hang in there. keep pushing. really inspired by the vert videos

Wishing you a speedy recovery Aaron, but like a lot of people have been saying here, it might be time for ya'll to start "mastering" the tricks you have already learned. I don't think a brand new trick is required for road to vert, but maybe 3 rock and rolls in a row, getting more comfortable with backside air, aiming for 8 inches of backside air, etc. It may help you overcome some of the initial fear as well, feeling relaxed and comfortable is key in any high performance situation.

I absolutely love your passion! It's very inspiring to hear your point of view. I'm just getting into skateboarding for the first time ever. I'm a bit scared but I'm trying to be brave lol. Anyways, I sincerely wish you a speedy recovery! Get well soon!!

I love how motivating you are about everything. Keep up the great videos AK 😁

I’ve now broken both of my arms and your vids inspire me to keep skateboarding.

Skateboarding be like that sometimes 🙌

Very inspirational. Speedy recovery bro.

I recently started skating some vert and it is so much dang fun! Glad to hear you're not scared off!

when they introduced the vert ramp, i knew this was going to happen.

You guys got me skating again after at least 5 years. It's such a great experience skating

I just started skating on a cruiser a month ago, and I am still learning how to push and go fast, two weeks ago I fell and I have this two huge bruises on my legs and it pushed me back a little, but it is so nice to see a person that has skating his whole life saying they are still scared to hurt themselves and to do baby steps and take the time you feel you need to learn. This was very inspirational, thank you, Aaron.

I broke my hand a week ago, which was exactly a week after I bought my first skateboard! Seeing this and seeing you be so positive is really encouraging. I planned to keep going even after they told me it was broken but my mom and alot of other people said things like " I hope you learned your lesson" and " you started too late so youre just going to keep hurting yourself" and I was really discouraged, but watching you guys have so much fun and keep high hopes has made me feel so much better so thank you so much!!!

This was a great video, HEALTY FEAR!

Get well soon 👍

Bummer bro. Hope you recover soon. Godspeed! 🙏

Vert is a beautiful thing, it has been a couple decades since I rode a vert ramp but I'd love to get fully padded up again at 41 and try getting back the tricks I used to have on vert, we have a mini ramp in the village I live in but I find mini ramps hard to skate, I can't get any proper air out of the ramp because there is no vert on it at all. Heal up soon Aaron and get back to learning vert, I have been following this channel for years and always wanted to see a vert skater in the team, and now we have JD and a bunch of you actually pushing yourselves to learn tricks on the ramp, it's really amazing to watch, though I could be biased because vert is my favourite type of skating to watch. Keep it up man.

Don't let it stop you from skating. Get back and conquer that vert once you heal. I broke my arm on a blunt to fakie 15 years ago and I'm still shredding hard!

Wrist guards my friend. Mine can't take the punishment anymore and even though they look goofy, life saver.

Yo Braille is doing great and I’m super happy for you guys. Been watching for years and you guys have continued to progress and give give give back to skateboarding and constantly being creative. You could have easily fallen off and gotten stuck in a boring routine but Aaron at the core of this has done an amazing job and I’m proud of you guys

I love the story telling. This video is so cool. We need more story time type of videos like this

Noooo Aaron! Dude hope your ok.😁

Your positivity inspires me bye-

Man, when I saw this on Instagram and at the beginning of this video I was so afraid Aaron would give up skate vert. I love watch him at vert. So glad he's not quitting. Can't wait for this backside air 2 feet high!!!

Braille is doing gods work! When i was growing up skateboarding was looked down upon, braille is 1 of the reasons skating became excepted and mainstream. Love u guys!!❤️

hope you are okay bro as a vert aggressive skater I felt that fall.

Arron and JDs story is soooo cool.

This is the most inspirational video I have ever seen on youtube! Get well soon Aaron! I still have to use the snowskate where I live, but I'll make sure the skateboard is ready to go whenever the snow melts. :)

As I said in other vídeo, your vert series is really freakin' and inspiring. Always after the vídeo, I have the need of go out and go skating... Hope you are feeling well and keep going strong!!!

No... The best thing is that you don't have a leg... Get well faster ! !♥♥♥

Get well soon ak

Way to go aaron, you have the right attitude and you push other people to be their best 😊👍 you are a true inspiration bro 😎❤🔥👏 love braille and also want to shout out JD's dad and mom, thanks for being such cool parents and raising such a humble, respectful and talented son(appreciate him and his attitude so much 😊)

Loved the way you talked about learning vert like being a kid again. As a 58 year old who picked up skating again two years ago I get that a lot. I also never hit transitions without the usual gear, plus padded shorts, padded shirt, and of course wrist guards. At one time or another they have all saved me and allowed me skate another day.

You'll get that backside air! I feel like after a big bail or long break from sk8ing you come back stronger and more progressed then where you was when you was 100% .. its weird and I can't explain it. It's just that mental game that comes with sk8ing and the body finally syncs and you just do it!

dang i hope you get beter much love from tennessee

Hey Aaron, 28 year old lady here whose skateboard was largely sitting in her garage for several years picking up dust. You and Braille really helped me get hyped about skateboarding again, and it’s been such a great way to spend the summer of 2022! Thanks for the help and hope you recover quickly!

Aaron Kryo is a truly inspirational human being! Thank you for getting me into skating and continuing to push yourself! It helps me to continue my own journey❤️.

Its awesome that JDs dad was the one who convinced you to build the vert ramp. Dude really wants, no DEMANDS the best for his son. I respect that a lot.

Amazing Vid!!

I only have one skateboarding friend that I don’t really see that often, and I also don’t have really anything to practice on at home, so I feel like that really discouraged me very much. Past me would just give up, but now I got over that stage and any other beginners feel this stage too.

You are truly inspiring dude. I'm 32 and getting back into skating thanks to you.

Go on you have potential

I broke my dominant wrist twice, the first time was from back flipping off of a swing, and the second was when i started skateboarding and fell backwards when i hit a bump

Take it easy my friend

keep it up buddy - love your mindset

I’ve broken both my wrists like 5 times so I feel the your pain

My condolences🥺❤️✌🏽love your videos❤️❤️❤️❤️

Hi Adam all the way from Newcastle NSW Australia bro! 👋 Wishing you well and for a speedy recovery mate. I absolutely love watching you learn vert bro. What you have created there my friend is one of the best things I've found on the net! I used to skate passionately from 7-17....... Now im 48 this year and I find myself relearning vert after over 30 years off and thinking I was retired from sk8ing. So yeah im experiencing the fear factor and progressing through that slowly as you are. Lol SO Godspeed to ya Adam. Can't wait to see you get those backside airs real soon champion! Great to see Andy Mac's explanations and insights. Possibly see if the laid back characters of Stevoe Cab or Lance Mountain could come join in!? More older legendary rippers to inspire. Oh! And JD teaching Andy Indy's was excellent viewing! Seeing that 'AA' is human! and not some sort of a robot like Nyja. Lol We heard exactly WHY he finds vert so challenging? The whole Canadian non- vert thing........ Yep your surroundings most certainly shape your sk8ing style and direction. Just as much as the decade you started! ........ 1980 baby! ✊ As much as you enjoy motivating and teaching younger groms. I hope you also understand Adam? That your ALSO helping bring old dudes like me BACK to it! 💣💥 👌👍🙏 I find it all interesting and inspirational so I thank you all. Used to be Sk8 or die? Now I'm thinking it's Sk8 till ya die......... 🤘🥳😎🤙

i feel so bad dude, hpe you get better soon, love coming from texas 🧡🧡😪🙏🙏

Ist day skateboarding after 12 years I DID A WALLRIDE, TO TRANSFER OVER A WALL EDGE TO DROP IN, THEN A FRONTSIDE SLASH, ALL TO AVOID HITTING A ROLLERBLADER. THAT FELT SO AMAZING. IVE been skating for 6 months now, and still cant re do it.

This was refreshing.

Feel so bad bro hope you get better

Get well soon Aaron!!!

The irony is the fear is always about being in air, being on vert, hanging up or landing on flat.

And my comments to build a vert ramp for the last 2 years didn't matter? Thanks A aron

Had some heavy falls last week so this week feeling like I've got a cracked rib, weird swelling on my hip, back aching and feeling old. Did drop into to the 9ft quarter pipe at the local park for the first time though after being inspired by a 12 year old girl dropping in. Thanks for the encouragement to keep at it. Heal up dude, sending up a prayer for you 🙏

Null sweat, Kyro! Take your time and let that wrist heal up. You'll get those airs dialled and unlock a whole new level of confidence in the vert ramp in no-time.

Sorry to here Get well soon

Early gang my condolences for your wrist Aaron

Get well soon Braille😊

This is my new favorite Braille video.

if gabe was a true friend he would break his wrist dropping in just to show the solidarity.

Hi Aaron, I'm learning to longboard (slowly) at 53 and find your videos really inspiring. I am really a doctor, so if you want to send me a high-res scan of the x-ray, I can take a look for you. I should be clear, however, that my doctorate is in cultural studies, so my advice won't be worth s**t.

Aaron I love watching you guys you guys are the reason I started skating!😊

When tps2 came out I fell in love with skateboarding. When I moved out to LA to make movies I kinda forgot about it. But last Christmas my brother got me a new board from Brail and we finally went to a skatepark last Sunday (first time in almost 7 years!) . The legs were wobbly but remembered the form and I cant wait to go back. Love watching your videos and thanks for the inspiration!

always waiting if braille upload a new video

I’ve done that before, at Woodward I was skateing the F bowl with only a helmet I went really fast into the f bowl and went straight into the wall and hit my face and shoulder luckily made it out with a big hole in my elbow and knee, btw the first day at camp. Then the rest of Woodward everyday I got injured everyday, sprained my wrist, opened up my scabs from injuries, other stuff, but still Woodward was the best.

I remember a couple months ago when i bought my first board. I decided to go down this hill and i realized i wouldn't be able to turn so i bodied on the grass instead of the sidewalk thankfully. Fast forward 2 or 3 months and i think its nothing now. I can now comfortably go 15mph on my longboard but I'm decided to stop going faster once i can reach 17 or 18mph just to avoid any injuries or failures if my board slips out. Get well soon Aaron👍🏼

Heal quick dude, your commitment to learning new skills is inspiring.

DAYUM BRO!

Once you learned a trick you want more. Thank you for inspiring many of us included me that I don’t skate.

You are amazing, Aaron.

December i broke my elbow. I'm 42 and started to skate 2 months prior. I was practicing skating fakie. I'd roll up to a ramp and then come down fakie, trying to get used to that feeling. i did it about 10 times and was getting comfortable and the last time i was stiff legged. Hit a rock and got tossed, wasn't even going that fast. If i would have been faster i would have rolled over the rock. Because i was backwards and had no clue how to fall that way i put my arm out to brace myself and boom. I had wrist guards on so that saved my wrist, which would have been worse to break than an elbow. So i'm lucky there. I can't wait to get back on the board, the weather's getting nice so i'm getting the itch. This channel has always been an inspiration. : )

His street skating came into focus, because that's what you usually do when street skating..

Your Australian accent is getting better! 🤣

This is the earliest i've been and im so sorry to hear this

Love to mister Kyro! You really help me and other skaters that need some encourage
