Acid drop

[@LevelUpDaily434]

You're fking awesome for doing these vids. I'll happily pay you to teach me how to do tricks, but first I'm going to learn from all your basic vids as it's been 15 years for me since I been riding. Hilarious you said that in the vid too... Too perfect. I'll get the app once I get a bunch more practice in but thank you for adding these vids. Something has drawn me back to skating and I have felt amazing ever since I bought my new board and been out cruising again

[@LevelUpDaily434]

I'm roughly 3 weeks in, 30 miles ridden on board, I feel amazing. Can manual for a few seconds... Can almost manual in switch bro!! Can't thank you enough times for making these videos my friend, I am sooo super grateful for these videos. I am def going to surpass all of them, I can clearly see my improvements every single ride I am not kidding. So exciting man, a few years from now I'll be able to do so many tricks, I can feel it in my bones dude....

[@squishyxout]

You guys and the Powell-Peralta Team got me back into skating at the end of 2020. Been over a decade since I did any trick skating and will definitely follow this entire series and see if I can land my first ever kick flip! I have all the shove variations and even landed a heel flip long ago but never landed a kick flip and my goal is to land one before I turn 40. I'll be 39 this year so LET's GOOOO!!!!

[@brailleskateboarding]

We 100% are going to get you to land not just one but MANY kick flips before then. If you need help, DM us on IG, we do check those every day.

[@SoapworthyProductions]

@@brailleskateboarding that’s awesome. Super appreciate that!

[@smking_125]

How is it going? I was the same, couldn’t land a kick flip but could heel flip. I even landed a hard flip on carpet just on a deck no wheels xD. I don’t know if I could do all the shove-it’s. Maybe try practicing the kick flip in dry grass or even on carpet inside.

[@SoapworthyProductions]

@@smking_125 great advice! I will try that. Still haven’t landed one yet. I’ve seen holding onto a fence is really helpful too so I’ll find a spot with grass and a fence!

[@TheEmckay]

Just started skateboarding again recently. I'm 25 now and originally started skating when I was about 10 years old. I fell out of it over time as I got into high school and quit by the time I graduated. It's been at least 5 years since I've been on a board and you guys have inspired me to go back to my local skate shop, build a new complete with the shop deck and get back out to some of my favorite parks. Thank you so much Braille and huge shoutout from Kansas City, MO and our local shop, Escapist!

congrats on winning the super bowl lmao

Turning 43 on Thursday, my new complete will be here on Thursday, i’m jumping back in to skateboarding, haven’t done it on a daily basis since 1996, already warming up on a bunch of basic tricks on my stepsons board, can’t stop binge watching Braille 👊🏼😎

[@krisfitton7016]

So happy this series is out. I just started skating again after 15 years and decided I'd just hop on a board and go at it like I hadnt stopped. A silly slip and fall effed my leg up, then winter hit basically overnight. Watching these helped me realize "hey, maybe slow it down and realize your not as balanced as you used to be" and it's been helpful to find where I screwed up and how I can fix it haha. Thank you guys :)

You motivated me to go back to the basics with a regular skateboard. I used to skate a bit, mostly bowl riding (without mastering the basics actually) but I quit because I had big anxiety issues keeping me away from the park. A few monthes back I went back surfskating becaused I missed surfing a lot (I've moved out sadly away from the waves) and again I went back dropping in and carving the bowl but I saw videos of surfskaters landing regular skate tricks with their boards and watching most of your videos I told myself I need to grab my skate and go back from the beginning. So thank you a lot for the bootcamp I'll let you know when I land a kickflip 😂

[@bflippsytrance]

The leaning rule is basically lean towards the direction you're moving in, the steeper the angle, the more you lean. Bending the knees not only gives you more flex in your legs reacting to height differences and impacts, it will also keep you closer to the ground, something that takes away a lot of the fear of falling hard. Great beginner series, and definitely shows how to get started.
