[@thedude5599]

As a 50 year old who is just started learning to skate these tricks help me with my balance and getting comfortable with my board. Sure they may be easy to people who have years of skating experiance, but for an old guy like me, who literally is learning from scratch I find lots of these rather hard. Ill be practising them all, till I can do them. I do not care if they are weak ass tricks or not because as I learn each one I will feel better about my progression. I know im starting late all I really want to do is ride bowls and carve up bowls. I could care less about tricks speed and carving to me is where skating is at. I just wanna rip in bowls is basically my only goal.

[@johann-noelmeyer9540]

this is SO TRUE! I get stuck in my mind that I need to learn how to ollie before anything else and I forget there's so much else to do. Being able to handle going off a curb or a few stairs is HUGE! Also manuals or boardslides are DOPE
