5 MAJOR TIPS on Skating Stairs

[@SKATEHACKS]

Btw I didn't mention shoes but having great shock absorbing insoles is going to help you tremendously.

[@danedalton]

Do you think you could make a video about shoes? As in what you look for in them, and some good vegan options that are also durable? I’m new to skating and don’t have them money to go through tons of shoes that don’t last very long.

[@dragonblaze3419]

Do you have any suggestions for good insoles ?

[@envidygaming3990]

@@dragonblaze3419 From what I've seen FP make some amazing ones but never knew somebody who tested them.

[@SKATEHACKS]

Footprint insoles are some of the best. Also emerica and vans have good gel insoles on a lot of their pro model shoes.

[@prodchronic]

Bro I just got some insoles and my confidence boosted tremendously. I never realized how much it was impacting me

[@NoseBleedrummer]

Flutter in tummy is the same feeling I get when I'm ready to commit too. Usually for my skating it's a curb, not a 10 stair.

[@lyftx8049]

a curb????

[@chrismitchell4752]

A curb, five stair or a 4 block. It doesn't matter. You can do it, you just don't think you can. But in the back of your head you know all you have to do is just commit. I can't say anymore. Just commit

[@pootypunt69]

Lyft x slappys maybe

[@roybatty4578]

The whole point is to have fun, not focus on getting better lol

[@goofy-goon8518]

[@burntwash7]

That back 3 kickflip was mind blowing.

[@matthew3496]

Watched that beauty back in extra slo-mo. Such a sick trick.

[@chaytonhua4841]

Bruh, people really have no clue how hard fakie or nollieing ANYTHING is. You're a shredder fr man. You really came with a perspective and a legitimate run down when it comes to trying to skate bigger sets. Awesome video dude !

[@AbandonAllArt]

He should change he title to "the secret to landing any trick" - because that part about "toying around with the idea of landing it" is what I see so often at the park. People throwing tricks up banks that they aren't consistent with on flat, and becoming frustrated. I feel like they would have so much more fun not trying to impress people. Of course I'm guilty of this too. I'm way more impressed by the guy landing every kickflip than I am by the guy who has been throwing tres all day and the board is just flying away.

[@KC-dg9pu]

I had a friend years ago who idolized Stevie Williams style. I don't think I ever saw him land anything ever. He would go up to a ledge, pop and the board would go out of control. He would roll back to us saying something like "yea i was trying nollie hardflip nosegrind".

[@sneezymcgee]

these tips apply to more than just skating stairs, thank you for this 🙏🏻

[@suffocatingdaily]

Omg I Needed this, When u get to a 4 stair it starts to get a little more serious

[@curvela5268]

u dont even need to ollie when u skate 4 strairs

[@f.ttg535]

nope 4 stair is super small

[@suffocatingdaily]

You don’t know how much I needed this video, thank you 🙏

[@henrymatthews2253]

would love to see some tips on holding tailslides and noseslides! loving the content :)

[@AlecKeaneDUB]

My buddy noticed that I was kind of crouching a lot in noseslides so I started reminding myself to stand up on the ledge with my legs more straight and that's definitely helped me hold them longer

[@ratat0ui11e9]

I put my front foot in kickflip position but jus do a Ollie on fs nose and it’s helped me hold them

[@levay2338]

*breaks foot on a 5 stair* The day after: “HoW To SkAtE StAiRs”

[@colemanlewis5080]

The tip about knowing when to stop is a great one! I am coming off a very long recovery in which I had to get surgery and stuff. It is important to know your limits!

[@godownondebbygang3456]

Your definitely the sickest youtube channel skater. Inspiring for real

[@isabellavillarente460]

This video was so helpful!! I was trying to do a bigspin boneless down a 2 stair for 2hrs & 30min with only a few breaks & it got real toxic. Now i know to limit my tries & take more breaks so skating is more fun. Thank you! ❤️

[@Nkwenkl18]

Dude you’re hella good. I love your steez.

[@obediahgarcia1321]

i really enjoyed this video. as a 30yrold getting back into skating and just BOMBIN IT, ive hurt myself, but also had a lot of reward being fearless and randomly landing the trick first try. i try to be intentional with my foot placement and body mechanics. i love how you worded that. great vid!! BE INTENTIONAL!!!!

[@timonraccoon]

Perfect time I got recommended this vid, I was trying to ollie this 6 stair and I just couldn’t do it, it was just getting to my head that if I was to fall and break a bone or clip the end and fall on my face, so I decided to take a break from it and practice my ollies, the bailing tips were really good advice

[@OpenSanity_prd]

Damn .. your tutorials always make thee most sense ... U are giving us first hand info on proper shedding .. I really respect that

[@ETorres0311]

Hey brother this might be lengthy, but I gotta say that the way you explain the mental processes and how important it is to have consistency is something not everyone thinks about. when I was younger skating with my homies we’d all just fuck around and throw tricks down without the intent of anything. May be in the hopes of landing it by a struck of luck. You have put into words what I couldn’t pin down as a feeling “doing it with intent/with purpose.” I can’t tell you how many times I stuck a trick because I was better at bailing than committing to it. At one point one of my homies called me the “Stick King” couldn’t land big tricks for the life of me. Every now and then I’d get lucky and land a kickflip down a 9 stair or something but it never felt intentional. I’m 26 now and I’ve been skating on and off for about 13 years (life gets in the way, but I always want to come back to it) but I swear this past month I’ve been back it feels completely different in a good way, and your videos are helping me think about skating in a totally different aspect. Thank you for this bro! You’re awesome!!

[@godeaterskye]

This is such an underrated video

[@subzSauria]

Bruh you are so good and have massive style. By far my favorite channel for tips.

[@Reidy1107]

Man you are absolutely amazing on a skateboard i could watch you skate for hours! Beast! I appreciate the time you put into these videos helping fellow skaters out thanks man 🤙

[@PotatoGod69]

I could listen to this... Orrr I could just keep trying the 5 stair before even trying a curb

[@nathanwilliams9695]

Great fall properly I’ve only done like half a step in 38 been skating/surfing fairly well often for 4 years, but I intend to do steps which is a challenge because I broke my ankle skating and the pain is still bad but tbh a good thing to say is that I’m not letting that stop me.

[@Player-bs1pm]

Best video on stairs. I only skate ledges and this is very helpful .

[@samuelhenry4839]

damn I just realized he lives in Texas. He's skating at my favorite skate park in this clip- 4:15 Now I need to keep an eye out for him when I'm skating there.

[@فورتنيتغامر]

Ok elon

[@shaneedwardhinson]

House park is fun

[@MrWickedsouls]

Thank you so much for the tips. Do you have any videos how to start skating handrails? I feel like you have one attempt for that and if you fail, its over. How do you start with that and how do you progress, learn how to fall?

[@MrCeezh]

3:00 i see those gaps all time around town , that is my goal to clear those. Tre was sickkkk roll away

[@quincypinetree]

i needed this video, before i was able to ollie a 4 stair consistently then one day i got a massive mental block and ultimately became scared to ollie a 4. I can do a 3 stair but when it comes to 4's its just something i need to get consistent with 3's before i can go back to the 4

[@Artimus_]

Very helpful tip I’ve been trying to skate this big gap that I know I can do I just can’t commit and I appreciate these tips

[@miguelvielma895]

Just wanted to say thanks for the years of videos and tips, keep it up bro!

[@ImBlackIvy]

Lol “playing around with a 10 stair” my knees can’t be playing wit that

[@therongustafson]

squat

[@MrBiggysmalls87]

Biggest stairset I ever ollied was a ten. Almost kickflipped the ghetto banks gap. Kinda landed it. That’s like a ten. Reynolds Nollie back 180d it and fakie flipped it. Such a sick spot. North philly. I highly recommend skating there. It is so choice. 👌

[@ImBlackIvy]

Y’all make it sound easy , everytime I hail stairs it hurts a lot so I’m good

[@keithelliott2296]

Just kickflipped my first two stair perfect timing

[@MarkPuke13]

Thank you I’m 31 and skating stairs hurt also do you got online part somewhere your style is amazing

[@ImBlackIvy]

puke13 29 turning 30 here lol. I know what you mean, us older guys trying to learn stairset tricks and handrails is way harder.

[@Manuel-rl4lz]

the only thing that messes me up is that im not too comfortable being in the air and i get air foot. i can ollie off decent drops but as soon as stairs are in the equation i cant keep the board under me. what should i do?

[@mfscriptz2647]

Practice ollieing everything, especially flat ollies try getting them longer and longer. If you can ollie a sewer cover then you can ollie a 4 stair

[@charo703]

Practice ollies going fast

[@scottliebowitz4605]

Just commut

[@ro-lk1qe]

Don’t jump as much just kind of pop lightly but already be falling to the ground by then so that the force of your feet from falling make the board stick to ur feet

[@Kennethlally124]

I only skate quarters and flat bars for tje most part. Banks, mini ramps and boxes/ledges too so man i gotta do this

[@theprismaticsystem2833]

Hi inline skater here, trying to learn rolling down stairs and was curious what y'all do with them with skate boards, that advice seems surprisingly still applicable lol.

[@zombie-ix1qs]

Whenever I got to 4 stairs I feel like it’s a mental game cause going up to it is scary so you don’t think and go fast is it a mental game

[@napoo454]

Skateboarding is all mental bro, just remember YOU control the board, the board doesn’t control you, and progression, not perfection

[@Mr.8point5]

wish more videos like this were around before I started skating stairs 13 years ago ,thenrails and then surgery lol good video.

[@asawolfe_]

So true the flutters are real but thats why we do action sports for the flutters! Great video skate hacks keep killing it!

[@inmyspl1ff]

good old san marcos skatepark. i knew ive seen you before lol can’t believe i randomly found your channel

[@RazyOsa]

dude thank u for this video man it helps to hear in others words those tips you said

[@antoniopina2829]

I would also say that finding your speed is a big part in skating stairs as well finding what speed is comfortable instead of just going as fast as possible

[@hugohugohugohugo4800]

[@Rufusdos]

I'd love to hear the names of the pros you've seen who approached it with that impressive intention.

[@bkellum89]

Kyle Walker and Evan Smith look like they approach nearly everything with the intent on landing it first try.

[@chrismitchell4752]

I taught a guy to Ollie in minutes. He landed a couple on flat and then went straight to a five set. He landed on second try. His secret hack is called commitment.

[@lucastafoya8313]

Can you do a video on how to know the speed for any set without trying it first and also how to commit to your feet comming off and back on the board for stairs and drops?

[@SKATEHACKS]

Certain things can’t be taught. Use your intuition. After a point, you gotta remove the training wheels and go for it because knowledge only takes you so far. Experience is needed. You only gain it by getting out there.

[@Kddddd961]

Let’s see one on Nollie front Noseslide. I always hit the ledge on the way up. Same with Nollie front board

[@Chriskary1]

I actually respect that you can do the tricks! There’s this other guy on KZbin who talks just about skateboarding and he can’t even kickflip. Then he try’s to teach others and give them advice and he sucks and is teaching the kids the wrong things!
