I'm not done... the kickflip wont defeat me 

This is what skateboarding is about!!! Touching grass, making friends, building confidence, learning new things and progressing towards goals. Im hyped this all worked out and I got to know Maya. More fun soon :)

After the last kickflip video, Maya inspired me to no longer try new things. This time, she has inspired me to only try new things with direct professional guidance. Shout out to Ricky!

This guy is so nice and comforting. Skateboarding is HARD. But it will make you HARDER as well. Stay vigilant Maya.

Maya saying "are you having fun?" to the guy giving her lessons is such a mood

"You may roll a little bit after..." Maya: "uiihiihhhhhhh" **board gone**

Skateboarding: touch grass until you can touch concrete

Congrats on the shuvit Maya, love seeing the progression!!

This series made me go out and get a skateboard. I’m disabled and haven’t tried skateboarding since I was a kid. But for now I have pretty decent mobility so I decided to just get a cheap one to skate around a bit. Even if I won’t be able to do many tricks or even do it for long I’m having a lot of fun while I can! Thanks for getting me to try it!

maya being flabbergasted when the professional skater does a skate trick

when i was first learning how to ride a skateboard, i honestly just put on a helmet and borrowed my brother's skateboard. i fell many, many times, and i could not land a single trick. but to my surprise, a super nice person rode by on their bike, watched me fall and sit down in defeat, and they stopped and said, "keep going! you will get it!" i kept going and eventually i made some friends who helped me learn, and i got the hang of it. i'm so proud of you for not letting that kickflip defeat you, maya!

As a former sponsored skater and someone that has always had a passion for animal conservation, this hits a weird niche for me and I love it.

Maya getting hit in the shin and crying out "Riiiickkkyyyy!!" 😂 so good

The black hair really fits Mayas vibe. Could really see why people call her Aubrey plaza.

Im actually digging the super snappy and quick intro with directly calling us RU-vid🤣

Saw a chicken do this on reddit

video starts 0:00 30 six seconds into the vido 0:36 video ends 22:27

I love his positivity in teaching, and finding ways to keep you interested. Like taking turns doing a trick, or going and talking to the other skaters. You can tell he really loves the sport, and is filled with joy when someone else wants to learn.

This was so fun to watch, you’ll get it soon Maya!!

Maya, your tenacity is just insane! Favorite streamer !

i wish there was more of the friend making featured in this vid… it was so sweet😭😭

I love this series. Skateboarding is hard af, people don't appreciate the time (and pain) that people put into it. You'll get there Maya, just have to keep trying.

I haven't watched the video through yet, idk if you do a kickflip. But I wanted to say I'm glad you gave it another go- It's super inspiring and despite the pain you went through(especially the first time) you still had fun!! Maya you're genuinely super rad

These videos are fun for watching Maya struggle, but the sheer number of attempts she puts is honestly pretty inspiring. Patience & perseverance!

this was both so fun and inspiring! wants me to get back into skating. more videos with Ricky and skating please.

Maya, i adore this series! Ricky knowing how to make skateboarding content benefitted this episode so much

Okay this is really cool. Haven't really watched your content before but I saw the title. I just love seeing random fits of determination, on something that someone may not have ever had the urge to do before, but keeps at it and gain some respect for the craft. Well done and props to you

I've been skating for more than half my life and have only been able to kickflip like 3-4 times in that whole time, so no rush!!!! You can do it.

This is why RU-vid is the best. In my day...lol...they'd show the final win and not all the fails along the way. Love seeing how difficult these things are and how these folks are masters of their craft. Maya you crazy girl lol

This is such a fun and wholesome stream. Love it.

This is a crossover I never expected! Ricky is awesome

I love just how supportive he is.

LETS GO MAYA!!! Couldn't believe it when I read the title. I'm so happy to see you're getting into skateboarding, I got my first board in preschool and now I'm going on 27 and never looked back. I'm on the sidelines recovering from my first surgery, so thanks for the extra hype to get back on it!! I'll never forget how good the first kickflip felt, I ended up learning heelflips first for some reason though. Keep at it

Ricky is so nice + he is a badass skater

He is a really cool guy and such a great teacher and patient! He made this look fun!

This video just had me smiling all the way through. Loved how wholesome it was!

Absolutely love Ricky, seeing him come out here and have a great time teaching is so much fun.

This was a really fun video!

Loved this vid, ricky is way too good at skating!

was not expecting this mashup but it was lovely. been following ricky for a long time so i was genuinely surprised

My favorite Maya video ever !! I loved skating as kid, so this felt nostalgic in a way

This is my favorite collaboration ever. Ricky is from Braille skateboarding on RU-vid, and they have a ton of instructional and just all around good videos to watch if you’re interested in skateboarding in the slightest.

Maya has been putting out amazing content lately. Give her a follow on Twitch and watch live. Didn’t get the idea of watching live before but it’s been fun

I said it last time, and I mean it more this time, your determination is admirable as heck. To see a non-skater try so hard to get a kickflip is both validating (as a skater) and inspiring (as a skater or whoever else, I’d guess) good job! I’m happy I subscribed after your first kickflip video

keep going, skateboarding is fun as hell once you get the feeling. Learning a kickflip though takes some time. 20 minute adventure in and out. Ricky is also a genuinely insanely nice guy glad you guys have fun shredding

thumbnail goes hard, good job mayo

I've been watching Ricky since he moved to America to skate for Braille. Such an awesome dude and skateboarder.

This is sick don’t give up maya!

Yooo! Of all the colabs things not one I would have ever expected! Props maya and Ricky you brail boss

14:39: Best trick of the entire video

It’s always cool to see people like Ricky who are real artists at what they do.

love these videos from you

Yoooo Ricky is a beast. His attitude and positivity helps tenfold.. most of me learning skating is just willing to take those bruises and keep going and if you don’t have a positive mindset or support system it’s hard for anybody to learn anything.. keep up the hustle, both of you 🤙🏽

I love how encouraging he is!

The fact that he is so good he can mess up in the exact way to show her what she is doing wrong is insane

I really like how you have chaged, You seem so confident and it looks like you are enjoying life more! Happy for you :D

✊ These have been really great vids Maya. The footage of Ricky coordinating with Maya to land a trick over, and over, and over again quicky encapsulated visually what persistence is needed to accomplish something. That's needed for all sports, but for skateboarding especially... And also translates to life in general. It's always rad to see something cool take place, but I've always been especially interested in seeing the learning process and perseverance involved in achieving said radness. Thanks for sharing. ✌️

managed to catch part of this stream. great skate support session

I've watched so much Braille, this is such a meeting of the worlds right now. Love it

This was a rad video! Makes me want to try to pick up skating again in my old age.

Man.. these are just some nice ass people. Love seeing it ❤

Why did this turn into Ricky just showing off really hard tricks haha Luv you Ricky! Also I love seeing your progression Maya!

Good job on this video, it made me laugh a lot and I learned something about skateboarding. Thanks, Ricky, for helping her learn!

yesss great job! hope you keep skating

_[TL;DR - I loved every minute of this and hope you continue doing even more streams with Ricky! Please! ♥️]_ I watched that whole VoD, and the other three... I loved every minute, and I'm not even into skateboarding (aside from X-Games in the late-90s). The fact you and he managed to get you to land a trick _more than once_ is awesome and inspiring. I don't care that it was a Shuvit, because I noticed that was the trick you were almost managing DAY ONE (on *accident!* lol) I've said it on the VoD, I'll say it here: I really hope you and Ricky will continue to do skating collabs! (the fact you went out to meet him after the fact, gives me hope) Heck, maybe Ricky can even help with a donation drive stream in the future! 🤷‍♂️ But yea, I mirror everyone else's sentiments: Ricky is insanely nice, and watching you two was really uplifting. I intentionally watched that over a few days, just because it left me with a smile the whole time... and things that make me smile these days, are rare, so I wanted to savor it. 😊 Also, when the Wolves are established, please have Ricky AND Jenise come for a proper collab (now that Ricky is on Twitch). Hell, maybe have your new Skater Friend come one day, just for a quick tour like Ricky got. 😊

Awesome videooo! The "has fentanyl" cracked me up lol

this is 1000/10 content. I dont even skate, I did a little when younger and was big into skate culture stuff with my friend in middle school. so it's cool to see someone just stream them learning for hours a day.

lovin the skate content

This was a really cool stream

Well done on your commitment at least

You absolutely deserved that board. I was so impressed by how long you kept at it. You really are one of the best people :]

Never followed you because of the youtube drama sphere. Super dope to see you learning to skate. It's genuinely freeing and amazing and something I'm picking back up after a decade or so.

ricky is so nice omg 🥺🫶🏽

3 min in and im loving the editing. Maya is the crying animal from madagascar

Awesome. Please do more videos like this U guys had good chemistry too

The amount of support is so kind it makes me happy

What a super nice fella.

very good job mr editor. and maya too i guess.

This was awesome all around

This was awesome ❤

Dude is PRO!

SHE IS THE GOAT !!

A good teacher makes all the difference and this guy was amazing. Couldn't have asked for better. Really appreciate his patience and skill! Dope video 👍

Admire the dedication.

Maya looks so cool with the black hair

Half pipe at Alveus when?

Loved the outro 😊

This guy is awesome to be a pro yet still be this nice and patient teaching someone. Great video.

Dran bleiben! 👍🏼 Ich übe gerade mit meiner Nichte zusammen das Rollschuh fahren. 😅

Excellent Maya. Inspired I am....

Hope you keep at it!

My favorite vid you've done

YESSS FINALLY. DEFEAT WAS NEVER AN OPTION.

9:48 Me:”STEEZ”

I was so fucking hyped to see you conquer the shuvit. Took me weeks of brute force to learn that back in the day. Having a good teacher and support system makes a huuuge difference.

I love watching people learn new things. It makes me so happy for them.

Deltarune OST background music detected.

Now we just have to wait and see if Maya touches a skateboard again in her life

LETS GO. happy to see this

9:02 that's not a thing 9:08 what the actual fuck are you, mister Glaser... 😱

Yessss super proud stay awesome
