I've been skating for 10 years now, and throughout that entire time, I never bothered to learn switch because it was way too hard. So don't make that same mistake people. If you're starting now, learn switch while you are learning regular. It's like a brick wall to me and I still have pretty big doubts that I'll ever learn switch tricks. It sucks, so practice your switch early!

Aww man good vid. After being a completely lefty in skateboarding, I now find that sometimes I feel stuck when doing something with my left side on rollerblades. I've been working on my sucky left crossovers and stops. Sometimes it gets repetitive and irritating. Just like when I first started skateboarding. My number one tip no matter what you do for fun or to be active, is to never give up. Even if you bust your butt in front of people or get hurt, just take a break, then grab a drink and cool off. Then, later, when the wether is right, you're clam and dressed for success, take your headphones and shove them on and blast some music while focusing on your goal. When I was first learning to kick flip I did the same thing I did when first learning to do crossovers, I did them early morn and late night when it was quiet and I could focus better and I was hidden so it gave me confidence to push further. I now do new stuff in the bright of day in front of anyone. Sometimes weird methods like that help too.

when I first started skateing me and my friend were like 12. he decided to learn kickflip first and I was goin to learn heelflip. it took us like a year straight of riding around Ollie up curbs every day then we finaly got it then we got confident and started learning pretty quick. skate boarding is all about confidence and and commitment. you can do any trick you want its just a matter of when you learn you it and how bad you want it

Sometimes I think I'll never be able to do it, and I expected that I would learn it really fast like a ton of people said they did. You wouldn't know how happy it made me, when you said that it took you a year to learn to ollie. You're my favorite skater, and because you said that I realized that even if it's taken me a long time, if I stick to it I could have a chance to be as good as you are.

I liked that one tip and it's one I used with an old buddy of mine and he wasn't even that great,but he was very impressive for how long he had been skating and his size. You could say I certainly underestimated his potential because he had learned moves while skating with me that I never thought that I'd ever catch him doing,but even then that kept inspiring me to push it even further despite my higher level of experience and skill. What I think Chris Chan was talking about is the idea of what's known as a friendly yet competitive rivalry as a means to boost your progress and your rival's progress as well. You actually want your rival to progress as well in his own way or otherwise he want be able to motivate you as hard as you motivate him. Also,skateboarding is different for everyone and it's good to be inspired to learn different moves as well as the same because not all skaters are equally as capable or good at doing all the same moves,just like how I could tre flip and my friend couldn't,but he could hardflip,but I never could make that work,so sometimes you can learn different moves from your rival,so long as the difficulty level wasn't much different. Sometimes it would be more about commitment to a certain move rather than actual skill and just having the guts to go for it when otherwise it would be about impossible to merely do certain tricks on your own without this sort of motivation.

A few tricks that have been helping me recently: 1. With almost all tricks, you have to make sure you are not leaning forward too much. You really have to support your body with your quads/hamstrings like you're doing a squat. For those of you like me, who learned how to skate with bad posture, it's extra hard to do this, and you really have to think about it every time you do a trick. 2. Stay light on your board and make sure your weight comes off of it before you do the tech part of the trick. This allows the board to pop higher/rotate unrestricted. 3. Think about landing it before you even do the trick. Then follow the board with your eyes and feet mid air. This is real helpful if you can do the trick but you're having trouble landing from over rotating or whatever. Oh and try going out and skating til you get frustrated/tired/un-motivated/worse at what you're trying, then come back inside and watch a few videos of pros or trick tips. Then go back out and skate more. Keep doing this for hours if you can. Shit helps.

I really liked the part about how to level up tricks. Setting small goals and repetition then bigger goals that build on the previous level. Also, agree with part of the fun of skateboarding is progression and I believe that the desire for progression separates skaters from regular people atleast on the board. It took me 3 months to learn to kickflip when I really hunkered down to do it. I was 21 years old. I'm 36 years old now and I still skate and still learn new tricks once in a while. Would like to progress more in the years I have left. The last thing I'll say is the part about focusing on one thing. It is easy to go to a skatepark and get distracted. A lot of my learning has come on flat ground by myself with no distractions where I practiced the same trick over and over. Good video. I think the tips are good and you made valid points in regard to skateboarding and progression.

5:30-5:36 Definitely the best part. That is just pure motivation. If it wasn't raining I would have left and skated that second.

The amount of judgement at skateparks is unreal. Its almost like parks are only for novice skaters when really thats where noobs NEED to be to learn and get good.

Man you got the PMA(positive mental attitude)!!! You should be a motivational speaker. Seriously!!! Skating has come a long way and progressed so far. Like the tips at the end of the video. Man one thing I wish I did back in the late 80's early 90's when I tricked a lot was learning switch more. Great advice!!!

The tips were really helpful, keep up the good work! I know I'm going to be a good skater sometime, even though I live in a country where it's almost always raining. The key to success is to not give up and just practice, practice, practice! Get the basics really done - especially the ollie, which I'm actually working on, getting that super good helps you make a solid foundation for all of your future tricks and getting you up to that advanced level like he said

this is a great vid and tip...the only thing is keeping other ppl out of your head because ppl will talk about you if they see you doing the same thing over 100 times and not landing it and then they are quick to judge not knowing what your trying to do and accomplish, while they do their comfort tricks and always landing everything scared to try something new

When I get comfortable with a new trick I break it out into three parts: cold, warmed up, cooling off. Basically I work at it until I'm able to do the trick consistently regardless of how I feel, and it corresponds directly to where I'm at in a session. When I started learning back crooks I could only get a few in after I'd be skating for a while warmed up. Over time I could just roll into the park and back crooking the rail there was like saying "what's up". Eventually I could basically just do the trick on command regardless of how short or long I've been skating for. Another trick is to use your most consistent tricks as benchmarks when trying to step up new tricks on obstacles. If you have a go to trick, do it first on a new obstacle. It builds confidence in that 1) you can get something on this obstacle, 2) takes the edge off skating something you otherwise wouldn't be comfortable with, and 3) lets you learn the idiosyncrasies of the obstacle (too sticky, need to adjust balance, etc.).

4:00 is for sure. When I was learning, I couldn't do front pop shuvits or back 180s for my life and my friends would always get me with them in skate. Every time I skated I would warm up by practicing those tricks. Now they are both my absolute go to tricks, first tricks I would take down a set of stairs

honestly, the best way to get better is just not to be afraid to try something new. obviously don't try something if you don't want to but if you feel like you can do it then you should definitely try it. skateboarding isn't a safe sport but if you stay in your comfort zone then you wont see any progression.

It also helps to write down all the tricks you want to learn and arrange them in an order to learn them based on how comfortable you are with tricks you already know (like learning a fakie ollie switch 5-0 after you already have nose grinds)
