I love how you don’t clickbait your videos with “secrets” and “hacks”. There is no cheating in skateboarding, you just have to put the work in and not take the easy route

[@SKATEiQ]

glad you noticed that. trying to give people the tools but there are no shortcuts thats for sure

[@burger1113]

​@@SKATEiQ that's funny because your content has acted as a hack and secret for a lot of things I've had trouble with or what I felt out of reach lol Of course, it still takes practice, dealing with fear, and all that. Way way less of them, though!

[@cstpa1]

right this is completely clickbait free and i love it. no goofy hacks or "trends"

[@jguth6]

@@SKATEiQi swear your videos are so good they feel like shortcuts. I'm learning again at 33 and I've learned more at 33 with your videos than I ever did when I was younger without anything to follow when I was 15

[@Sno7373anon]

Same her 35 and loving getting back into it. Just got home from riding at the indoor park in Seattle.​@@jguth6

[@fademusic1980]

I still cant believe mitchie brusco is teaching us how to skate. He's so good yet he takes the time to make these videos and train the groms IRL. Seriously hats off dude, you are a credit to skateboarding as a whole

[@SKATEiQ]

Thank you! it means a lot. We love making these videos and were always trying to improve. glad you liked it

[@labelkilled]

Awesome delivery. You’re the best at breaking it down into digestible parts.

[@SKATEiQ]

thank you!

[@ferdinandsuwandi6179]

Thanks Mitchie. I just skate again at 48 after 30 years of brake. Still struggles with cornering in a bowl, and your videos help. Regards from jakarta.

[@louie1944]

I've almost exclusively been skating bowls as a beginner, and every few days I'll re-watch your previous video to solidify the points in my mind. I'm so glad you've released another one, and I can already tell how much this will help me. Thanks mate 🤙🏽

[@navyplumberboy8274]

I saw you at jackalope yesterday giving the kids some pointers. I miss skateboarding. I think i capped out on progressing at age 26. I'm now 29 and i just couldn't get better. So now I'm skydiving. I was with the skydivers yesterday.

[@trapperjohn77]

For me at 46 getting back into skating who always did street and never carved in a bowl, this is golden stuff. Thx

[@thornite]

Totally. I'm similar, mostly a straights and hills rider. Coming back in, amd so many years later, this is the stuff I'm hoping to do now. These vids are really cool.

[@phildapunk70]

Thanks Mitchie for another great video. I’ve never thought about the bowl designer, putting in features to help me in the bowl. I always thought I have to adapt to this new bowl. Thanks for the change in perspective

[@SKATEiQ]

Awesome! thats great to hear. Thanks for the support

[@JustWhateverSk8]

I love that sk8 Charleston bowl!

[@MrR0bert0o]

As someone of solely skates transition but doesn't have access to a vert ramp, this is gold! Love the videos. I hope we get to see more like this in the future.

[@coborin]

There are very few videos on ball rides and verticals in Japan. I'm grateful that you showed me this video. What I want to know about ball rides is that you can reach the very edge of the coping, but you can't grind. Also, backside is relatively easy, but frontside feels very difficult. Please continue to show videos of ball rides and verticals. My goal is to be able to do backside airs and grinds. How do you move your eyes to get to the backside air? How do you move your arms to get to the backside air? I'm looking forward to your videos. I'm cheering for you from Japan. Thank you.

[@user-vp4fq1iu8p]

I just wanna thank you for these videos. It’s insane how I can just catch onto what you’re saying as if im on the board as you speak. I hope you keep it up man!

[@natooo8312]

Man this is really aweome, thanks for sharing. Ive been really struggling with a wee bowl with only a 6ft deep and 3ft shallow. I think ive got to use the hips more and try stay high through the shallow. Also the greyed out espresso pull cracked me up!

[@SKATEiQ]

haha we dont joke about bad coffee. glad you enjoyed the video!

[@yocoachfred9932]

Mitchie brings a storm wherever he goes, literally and figuratively. It's either so cold you can see his breath or windy af but he always shows up and delivers.

[@SKATEiQ]

hahaha the subtitles were a must for this video. wind was whipping

[@danielgron8954]

I wish you had a spot or a representative site in Vegas. The way you eloquently and intrinsically describe every aspect of what you're trying to convey is truly what's missing from the skateboard community. If there were more people and entities that had this level of passion, knowledge, ability to convey complex ideas and techniques, as well as being hands on and in the mix; the world of skateboarding would quickly develop amd florist even more so than we've seen in the last decade. God bless.

[@SKATEiQ]

thank you Daniel! hopefully we will make it to Vegas one day. we hope this will have a big impact on skateboarding over the next decade, appreciate the support

[@ChantzPeterson]

What a real one he doesn't look down at all when skating real g

[@clayrock78]

I love your skateboarding, coaching style, tips, ALL OF IT ! Thank you for blessing us with this content.

[@thezetes]

I feel I am becoming a better skater just watching your videos!

[@tristinlloyd10]

Man your videos are so chill yet so informative! Thank you for what you do and teaching us your knowledge

[@chown-r]

How do you not have more subs? your teaching style is amazing and your delivery is perfect. I am a total beginner still wobbly on flat ground but your vids are what has inspired me to try transiton/bowls and very when i start to get my balance.

[@SKATEiQ]

Hopefully we just keep growing!

[@burtmcgurt3584]

You deserve every follower you get. If I had this in the 1990's who knows how good I would be!

[@cleveeakin2351]

Mitchie as always you explain things so well, and it makes total sense. thank you mate

[@His-Soldier]

'Deep dive into double dipping in the deep end' 😂 That is Will Ferrel tier comedy

[@RadicalizeLeft]

[@user-uu5of8rd1n]

[@user-eo5lz7nn1n]

Amazing videos bro! Form Costa Rica 🇨🇷 🌊🌊, thanks for the tips, improves my skate a lot🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

[@gmybarra]

Would absolutely love to be able to learn under a guy like Mitchie. You couldn't ask for a better teacher

[@evanproud4090]

epic video, i dont skate but you encourage me more every video

[@SKATEiQ]

Thank you for watching! Stoked you're enjoying the content

[@addisonboards]

Love your videos! Working my way through the mini ramp series now. Would love to skate with you someday!

[@SKATEiQ]

Awesome dude! Im sure we will one day!

[@Swellbows_94]

This is what I think a lot of us needed😂

[@kalebl0ng]

Would love to see an in depth tutorial on front side carves in the bowl can do fine backslide but struggle fs and a tutorial on airing on hips

[@danarrington2224]

Only skated Charleston 1 time. That place is concrete heaven!!

[@zkidfloor2607]

OMG i just realized this is Mitchie Brusco 🤯

[@cedricclark5531]

Thank you 🥲.

[@bigwave7207]

Mitchie thanks for putting out these videos. You do a great job explaining stuff. The little details in body positions, technique and approach are making a big difference for my skating. Any chance you could cover kickturns? Doesn’t sound very glamorous I’m sure , but I’m in my 40s still skating and kick turns always feel awkward for me. Thanks again for all your hard work with these tutorials!

[@Anthonyhancock71]

Great job. What was it 20yrs ago now I was teaching you on the RDS ramp. 🤣👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇨🇦

[@thornite]

I'd like to do a thanks. Your skills are appreciated, and what you share is awesome. I'm now aspiring to do the skills you share. As a born again sk8er, I just hope I can remember this cool stuff when it comes time to play. Thanks :)

[@GTFC_]

Im brand new to skateboarding at 39 your channels awesome

[@Sanglierartiste]

Very good

[@timweinert4762]

Love it❤

[@Cool-13]

@SKATEIQ can you do a kick flip video I would like to see that I am very close on landing it

[@user-yv8cb2xb7k]

Would you do a video on how ollie over small to larger obstacles like the roll up foot position and where your eyes are looking?

[@PuertoRicanRattlesnake]

I love how the video is pre-captioned

[@kisukeikaikino1938]

I saw you at Claremont today

[@DontaeRiley]

Why no in depth detail on how to Ollie/bonk on vert my back foot constantly comes off when I bonk a frontside tuck knee would appreciate it

[@WhatisReal11]

I think you giving a high IQ mechanics level breakdown in some sort of way, of some famous skate parts could be sick.

[@Ian-ig6lj]

If you ever want a quick boost in viewership that actually helps your community, make a playlist system that allows us to navigate your videos easier

[@Ian-ig6lj]

I was trying to find bowl specific or surfskate specific stuff, for myself and beginner stuff to help me teach my gf, it would be easier for me to find the videos that I want to watch the most (highest viewer retention).

[@SamuelCasillas-nunez-en9xk]

Skate god🙏🏽

[@lucasxavierlucas]

🇧🇷 Thanks!

[@TheSkaBouncer]

USE CHALK to draw out your lines in the bowl! It gives you a visual guide for where you want to go, can help you establish better habits for building speed, and unlocks a lot of creative potential! A little knowledge of physics can help you visualize better speedlines & trajectories!

[@TheSkaBouncer]

Also you get to make free, unlimited, temporary art & graffiti that washes away every time it rains!

[@imanehabibi1668]

Please can do a video on how to Ollie Ps: I really love your videos

[@itzlexa-8212]

can you do a video on doing tricks up banks plz

[@YOLOnyc]

Hi, could you please make a video on how to skate faster? Seems trivial, but some skaters can just pick up crazy speed really fast and air out of a bowl or go up to the top of a big ramp coming from a flat surface - how are they getting that speed?? Inquiring minds want to know :)

[@LorenFrancis-jj8fg]

Hey Mitchie! Thanks for all the great content! Was wondering if you could post something to help me with frontside carving through corners and pools. I’ve been skating for years and started out with street and am now trying to dial in more transition. I am confident with bs carving but for some reason I feel very awkward and unstable with my fs. There isn’t too much content out there about this and would really appreciate it if you had some tips! Thanks!

[@Stoons_Studio]

are you gonna come to sk8 charleston again i really wanted to meet you but i didnt get there in time

[@filipecoelhoarce2035]

dude what the hell i've been watching all your vids and just know realized you're Mitchie Brusco

[@michaelmiguel6937]

Do you wear knee sleeves? And do they prevent knee pads from slipping?

[@toyfighter651]

Danke

[@enerian4525]

Hey mitchie sorry You got me confused. Watching your Air tutorials You say often we should get off Our toes. Watching you skate the bowl you mostly stand on your toes with your backfoot. Is this a difference between bowl and vert or just between carving and airing out? Hope i made IT clear What i mean. Tanks for taking the time. Ive spended the last weeks trying to Not stand on my toes in the miniramp and in the bowl. So im guessing i got you wrong!? Thanks again

[@maxcyhicks875]

Sk8 Charleston.

[@ayush4sure599]

bro can u set up an institution or offline class here in india ??

[@mjg2_2]

[@youri_ap2]

[@izemes]

Yo check this out, here in my city in Brazil the State, in my city Brasília, made some mini ramps and i like to skate them as a warmup and then drive to my local transition bowl. is it ok? or maybe it's waste of time and i might warmup at the bowl?

[@izemes]
