I'm curious, how many of these tricks can you land already?! And which one do you think looks the coolest?

[@DJCoop1]

Justin Lauria First video I've been able to land every trick, woohoo! Wrap around barely. I think standing rail stand flip looks coolest. Thanks Justin, keep 'em coming! 🤘🏄💨

[@NeverStopImprovingSB]

Nice man! I almost fully agree with you, but there's just something about the nose stall to fakie caveman that makes me a little bit happier haha. Great to hear from you btw!

[@nachou1454]

what shoes do you use? i started skating around two moths ago, you are so inspiring, keep doing this type of videos.

[@NeverStopImprovingSB]

Those are the Nike SB Dunk Highs! My second favorite shoe of all time, second to the Adio Kenny Anderson V2 which is no longer in production :( They're designed like basketball shoes, so they have a good amount of padding and provide really good stability (near impossible to roll your ankle in these shoes). Drawbacks for some people: they're heavy and lack board-feel. I'm so glad you picked up skateboarding! You're going to have a blast :) I will keep making videos like this (in fact, I'm working on one right now that is quite similar and it will be my next upload!) Peace out!

[@bryanflores942]

I think the nose stall is the best

I’m entering an actual depression because I can’t ollie. Everybody says it’s so easy and to be a real skater you have to ollie. And it’s not even the ollie it’s than I can pop up while on my board

Use skater trainers if you still haven’t learned it

[@destroyakira]

I feel you ive been trying curb jumps but I literally can't land like my left foot always leaves the board before I leave and I hate it

[@dylanleeke1253]

I was kinda like that and than deadass landed my first one today, I recommend really focus on slamming the tail as hard as you can to practice the motion, because the tail flying up is what kicks the board in the air

[@justintv6274]

Tbh, when i practiced ollies on concrete i fell 3 times so hard on my fricking ellbows, if you land incorrectly the board just rapidly flys away. How am I supposed to learn it without falling so often? I am stuck

[@richarddiasribeiro429]

“No ollie required” For this trick you should know how to kickflip

[@dtarrant99]

Ollie's are frickin scary man

[@dtarrant99]

And also yeah

[@jack-ey3ce]

@@dtarrant99 I mean when you start they can be scary, but after practicing hella you’ll get the hang of it. I’m good at ollies cause I started ollieing onto my driveway up a curb so I had to pop harder. So if you struggle try that lol

[@dtarrant99]

I think its cuz I'm learning on a cruiser board instead of like a definition skateboard

[@dtarrant99]

Whenever I try to get airborne I feel WILDLY out of control

[@steezenuts7242]

Manuals are actually hard asf why are they on this list

[@elDragonos]

Maybe because it's the most important thing for a beginner to first learn how to balance, to feel deck better. Training manuals is the way to feel more confident on a skateboard.

[@steezenuts7242]

elDragonos yea that’s true

[@2_572]

You will build core muscles better too.

[@anzaeria]

I'm noticing so many new skaters are obsessed with learning the ollie as their first trick. Some even want to get into skateboarding just so that they can ollie. Always good to learn some basic tricks first. When I first started skating in the mid 1980s, I wasn't even aware of the ollie. I started skating because it looked like fun, not to obsess over learning a particular trick. Ollies came later.

[@hellstrikers3967]

I skated for a year. And. Still a noob 🤣. But. I’ll try the tricks so I can improve. Gotta start some where

[@NeverStopImprovingSB]

Exactly, man. Everyone makes progression look easier than it is on their social media or whatever, but it really does just take time/dedication. You got this!

[@djcovee4864]

Love your videos man really helping me get on the board everyday with my young son learning to ride together. Keep up the good work.

[@cionheart]

Nice video 👍 But we'll have to discuss the meaning of the word "beginner" 😁

[@shatterpointgames]

Lol these are beginner, they can be all be figured out within a few hours by anyone who is comfortable riding around on their board. If you find these to be too hard just practice ridding around.

[@jjay8693]

fluxx 😂

[@riplol3148]

if you only just started skating, it will take you a while to be able to start learning simple tricks. I skated for around 4 months before I could do simple tricks, by beginner it means starting to learn tricks and comfortable cruising on the streets

[@vvalimaki]

These are tricks for people who are beginners at tricks. If you are a " trying to stay on the damn board" - beginner, then maybe you are watching the wrong videos..

[@sportsfreak4614]

These tricks not that hard, just practice them if u want and you’ll get better

[@NeverStopImprovingSB]

So glad to hear the positive feedback Nick! 💪 Thank you!

[@weirdoskating9660]

For anyone who sees this and can’t Ollie here’s some tips: first, don’t practice on concrete first. Find something that slows you down on landing but can still roll if you actively push the board. This will give you a better landing but still a semi-natural landing. I would recommend cutting open tennis balls and putting them on your wheels. Skater trainers are OK also but it makes you come to a dead stop, so wouldn’t really recommend. Also, be comfortable riding on your board. Board control is key. Then be able to jump on your board with a good landing. Then transition to the Ollie position and be able to jump from there. If you’re having trouble with sliding your foot up, first just jump with your front foot up first, then transition to a slide. Once you get it down then transition to concrete, then to rolling. Hope this helps! Edit: also practice popping your tail, it will give your back wheel a little more encouraging (is that the right word?) to get air

[@NeverStopImprovingSB]

Great tips! 🛹

[@lmaoaoa211]

I really like each one of his video’s because there is a lot of motivation! good job

A moving wrap around is a “strawberry milkshake”

[@sophiacolon1732]

no that's when you have your foot on the grip tape over the 2nd truck on the side and flip it

[@whiteout475]

sophia colon You lost me lmaoo

[@alexi2978]

@@whiteout475 with a strawberry milkshake you'd be standing perpendicular to your board, not parallel, and your back foot would be at the tail while your front foot would be on the other side of the board. but the motion's similar, just a slight difference in back foot position cause it'd be flat along the board instead of at 90 degrees like in a wraparound.

These are really cool, I'm going to start practicing these. My nephew is always wanting me to take him to the skate park so we can learn but he won't skateboard unless I am too. But I'm 26 and just starting out and it's so embarrassing! There are all these other adults who are really good and they skate all around and I don't know where we can practice without getting in their way. I keep telling him maybe I should get better by practicing elsewhere first -- our skateparks aren't as spacious as the one you filmed at and everyone seems to utilize every part of it. Probably parking lots and curbs would be better until I know what I'm doing. Idk, just gotta start riding more I guess

Get as light on your feet while still maintaining your grip on the board and let your shoulders guide it. Hard wheels are better, too.
