My 2 cents ..dude that said your front foot is a little too wide is correct. I used to ride tight trucks until a few years ago, switched to loose (as in two threads showing on the kingpin or less). Wish i had loosened them decades ago. Loose allows you to carve instead of having to tic tac, way more fun, and requires less energy. You can also turn much faster at higher speed without tic tacking. If you are getting wheel bite, you need smaller wheels, and or risers/shock pads. Also, don't be afraid to come back in fakie. It gets comfortable with practice, and becomes much easier and nore efficient than a kick turn. You definitely aren't going to regret padding up 👍
@MidlifeSk8r
Ай бұрын
Awesome, thanks for the tips! I was mostly doing tic tacs because I hadn’t done them in many years and needed the practice, plus it was easier to gain speed that taking my foot off the board and kicking because I am still learning how to balance in the board. There’s a method to my meyhem 😆 I practiced fakies this past week, I’ll upload the videos soon. Thanks again for the tips!

Don't worry about ollies. Just keep doing what you're doing: rolling around. Don't make it about tricks. I'm in Augusta, 56; we had a park in the 70s, we now have a park that looks like yours - with an 11' bowl. I tried getting back into it, but made the mistake of having the 80s mindset of "gotta be rad", fell to the flat from about 6' up in the bowl. ...when, as a 12 year old in the 70s, it was about carving around, not about getting to the coping and whatever accomplishment. Learning to have fun without the need to constantly push the limit is the hardest thing of all.

It's just like when I am lifting weight, I do it for health reasons and not for competition so there's no need to get crazy and try and lift as much as I can every time! Thanks for the advice!!!

I'm only 23 and skating for 3 years (rode around at 14). You've skated before I was even born. I feel like skateboarding is in my blood till I die now. An odd compliment but you were such a great explainer that you left almost no questions for me to ask - other than: do you feel as though skating is in *your* blood now, too? You're gonna progress quicker than you think, I reckon. A 180 kickturn on a bank is honestly no small feat! Kickturning as well as you are tells me you just have a feeling for the balance on the board. I try teaching kids near me but they often give up before they can kickturn well. Really small manuals might be a logical thing to try next, as they can help when rolling off of a curb. Just try to do a small manual but focus on landing back on all 4 wheels. I will offer help with ollies if you want - obviously a big next step. I have a teaching method different to nearly all videos I've seen but it works for nearly everyone I've explained it to. I so look forward to whatever you upload next. Watching people progress in skating is so wholesome to me. Wish you all the best!

For ollying, I suggest getting a large piece (6x6' or larger) of burbur (office) carpet or similar and just practicing on that. That's how I learned. Basically a spot where you can jump and feel safe and practice the foot sliding, etc with the board without sinking in (grass) or slipping out (concrete). It's a good way to just feel comfortable on the board and test ideas, weight distribution, without feeling like it's going to slip out, etc. I practiced in my basement on the carpet with clean wheels, so that also works if you can.

I just bought myself a 9.25 Santa Cruz also to skate with my 14 yr old niece because her skate friend moved out of her neighborhood and she has no one to skate with. I can say this, jumping back on a board is not the same as jumping back on a bike. I'm still learning to balance all over again. I told her how we all used to build our own ramps in our back yards back in the day and her eyes lit up like that was unbelievable.

What makes me more happy is that my daughter likes to skate and she has been learning how to skate. Very rad. Yes, for all you say you are too old, you will be old. Get off your butt, get a board and just have fun and session. You won't look back.

@@MidlifeSk8r nothing too crazy planned for me either except I do want to get comfortable riding around a bowl. I had an unplanned moment the other week learning to roll back down a quarter pipe in fakie. My front wheels went over the coping when I went up the ramp and I panic bailed and almost wrecked my shoulder. It was a good learning moment though. Taught me that I really need to practice falling to my knee pads because it's not a built in reaction to fall straight to your knees.

I’m 40 and just picked up skating again too after about 25 years. I actually built a cruiser board that has an 80s shape (I always skated popsicle boards but thought it was cool), cruiser board with big soft OJ Super Juice wheels. My goal is to be able to navigate the streets cruising like they did in the Bones Brigade days, just skating rough terrain doing basic tricks for fun. I’m kinda always uneasy about going out by myself and being awkward but I think we get a pass at our age so we can gear up and actually have fun without the elitism and intimidation of only doing the new hardcore tricks or risk being a poser. We can have fun and it is good exercise. Good seeing you doing the same, keep it up, stay safe.

DO IT BRO! I'm 45 and just started again about 10 months ago, after a 20+ year break. It has sparked a fire in my life that I didn't realize I was missing. It really is the fountain of youth. I think the most important piece of advice that I have to offer, is spend the money on some nicer knee pads, and learn how to knee slide. 187 Killer Pads Pro knee pads are expensive, but are (in my opinion) the best you can get, and you can buy replacement caps for them for 20 bucks. Also, if your knees are bad and prone to pain and swelling, get some Old Bones Therapy compression knee sleeves. They have been an absolute game changer for me. Also... I wouldn't stress the "ollie". Enjoy flowing up and down the banks, and if you are fortunate enough to have a bowl... start rolling around in the bottom and learning to carve turn.

That's awesome! I recently turned 52 and bought an E-board. Hadn't touched a skateboard since I was a teen. I was never good at or interested in tricks, just love cruising and carving around my big neighborhood and that's why an electric skateboard (longboard) made sense. Took a bad fall last month and lost a lot of skin. E-boards can get up to speed fast and I had to upgrade to motocross style pads. Glad to see you're wearing pads.

When I graduated high school I thought we were supposed to grow up, quit skating and get a wife and job and bills. I quit for 13 years and then one Xmas my wife got me a wallmart board. When I asked why she stated “every time someone brings a skateboard over you ride it better than them”. I rode almost ten feet hit a pebble and flat spotted a wheel. By days end a truck was bent. I replaced the broken pieces and slowly destroyed the deck. When friends started going snowboarding they had me coach them and supervise a halfpipe construction. They went boarding a couple years and then decided their revenge was to put me on a snowboard. Air the pipe on my second day and through the mogals like a ballroom dancer on my first day and my boys wanted no more. Lol surf, skate, skim, knee, bogie, longboard, 8 wheeler, scooter…. I even ride cardboard, food treys, milk crates, soaps …. What’s that thing where you stand on two horses? I don’t do that. I learned to Ollie by watching Natas Copas in slow motion (he uses the top of his foot. Turns his foot upside down pushing down on the deck bottom of his shoe pointing up. Hook the board and fling or pull the board up) over and over. Every day and going to a pull up bar. I grab the bar overhead….ollie….if you fail your arms catch you…..succeed and you land it and you are holding a bar overhead. Maybe rig up a chingas….parallel bars work as well. I don’t do no kick flips or shove it but going across town I might pop up a curb crossing a street. Most people say it’s 2024 (it’s been 2024 years since Julious Cesar became king) but I say it’s the year 40 A.U. (After Urethane). In 1973 the first urethane skateboard wheels were made and I quit being a surfer (although I didn’t quit) and became a Skater. Everything changed instantly and then we changed everything. The Z boys were the guys in the magazines but everyone skated. We all rode banks, ditches and pools and pipes. Get your family out there like you said….motivation plus you’re not ditching on fam to ride. Baby steps! We taught bike skills by doing formations riding. The entire family out for the afternoon bike ride and someone shouts “diamond” or chevron or…..and the group forms a diamond….you know, around mom….she’s just riding straight. Lol kids love it, mom loves it and we can always get drunk and beat the kids another day….if were not sk8’n
