What I learned after riding a Revel kit for 700 miles: 1. Careful with the acceleration (sprained my right ankle bad) 2. Watch out for potholes (scrapped hands and ripped pants) 3. Wear a helmet (I probably wouldn't be alive after landing on my head) 4. Other people on the road are idiots (they will cause you to swerve or crash)

SUPER glad you made this video Ronnie! You really cover the bases. Learning to fall and the importance of pads are paramount when I show a newbie eskates for the 1st time: the run off is 1st, then know how to roll (& practice until it’s just in the nervous system) then know how to slide on hands/knees. 3 essential techniques for various speed blowouts. Also, in my experience, people damage hands & wrists 1st when they go down. Wrist guards have prevented multiple broken/sprained wrists since I started eskating. Keep up the good work man!

I have to disagree with bouncing up before a bump. I used to do this and it works on small bumps sometimes but nothing more. The much more effective method is to drop down as you're going over anything (bumps, drops, rocks). I've gone over bumps I fully expected to take the board out from under me. Even just already having a pronounced bend in your knees will save you more than trying to bounce up. It also requires much less precision. I would add in purchasing a board with hub motors with any expectation of it lasting. Buy it knowing you will replace it in short order because it is cheap and you don't know if you will ride much yet.

Its not like your going to be going top speed after a day if its your first time. I think it took me about a year to work up to the fastest setting. Just keep trying and you can be an amazing rider.

hi i would be very grateful if you gave me some advice.I am a total beginner and I am unsure which board to get. I was thinking to get longboard as its said to be easier for beginners to learn, smoother on sidewalks etc and more stable as it has more surface area, but then cruiser is much more portable and easier to navigate, and maybe safer?. Also whichever I get Im unsure of the size- i found a crusier on sale that is 28" in length and 7.25" wide but idk if thats too small? But then eg. a longboard i found thats 41" seems too big ?

Haven't gotten any broken bones and i started riding at age 30, one thing i'll say is, don't get cocky always wear your helmet. For me i got so cocky and i ride extra careful so i don't need it to my commute, but knee pads and elbow pads are more useful for me cuz of bumpy roads or when it rains when i get out of work. Had a couple of scraps on the dumbest bumps and sidewalks and knee pads and elbow pads would've came in clutch. Helmet did save me once when i turned a corner with my weight wrong when i was starting, but overall i don't get too cocky on my speed, i feel comfortable going 15-20 going 25+ down a hill is my limit and i def wouldn't do that without full gear.

I saw an eBoard a few yrs ago and thought real life Scaletrix! 😂 eBoardin is my first Real experience of skatin long term and now I wanna get good at "real" skatin, longboard, kick-pushin and footbrakin. As soon as I got into esk8, I took the time to learn everythin apart from foot brakin and slidin lol - how to tackle bumps, cracks, potholes, youtube skate videos are great tools. A lot of people in esk8 don't even learn what tightenin trucks do, or how any of the skate parts work 😭😭 I got an eBoard for All the good things of skatin without the borin bit of kick-pushin I thought 😂 I was wrong, pushin is great. Still all about ride feel for me, not torque, power etc. I do love range though.
