Hey Ben ! I just wanted to stop by and show you how much you have impacted me as a person and a fellow skater. First of all I've been skating now since I was 13 now 35 and with the wife and kids i haven't been able to get out n skate very much. I used to skate bigger drops and ledges and everything in between. but I broke my ankle in 3 places kick flipping a set and landed with my foot bent in. Since then I gave up the drops and went back to my favorite, technical skating trick in trick out. But I have had a lot of obstacles layed in my path that have greatly impacted my mentality with skating. First of all, my friends and brothers that I grew up skating with all no longer skate or moved to different states. The next big blocker I have is that I have issues just going out and skating for myself, i feel like if there isn't someone there to share in the enjoyment its really hard for me to get hyped up and make each session count, and go home feeling accomplished, and had actual fun. I also feel like i'm living my old best life... what I mean by that is that I have some pretty cool tech flat tricks, but being that I don't get out very much I find myself just trying my old bangers and doing what you said as your last part of a good session the progression part. So I will just try my hard tricks and fall over and over and just continue and end up leaving my weekend session feeling down and out as I only landed a few tricks, and nothing was consistent. I honestly just discovered your channel last night after a long shift at work, and seeing how you look at skateboarding and your advice has truly given me sooooooooo much confidence and I would love to build myself up with your amazing inspiration. Seeing someone my age able to just go out and skate for no one other than themselves is inspiring enough, but you touched on so many topics and different ways to approach a session, where if nothing else you never leave the warm up phase, or just have fun landing your trick over and over again to build up muscle memory and style. Seriously I cannot thank you enough, coming from someone who FELT like they were burnt out and could never get their tricks back, and definitely not progress in skating. You have given me a new lease on life and have shown this out of shape lover of the sport that I CAN go out and be magnificent and have fun skating again. You sir are my new idle and I want you to know, your teachings have forever changed me, and as soon as next week comes and Mothers day is behind us I will be taking your teaching to the skate park. Sincerely your friend Brian. Thanks a ton man !!!! please never stop !!! best content and most meaningful video collection I've watched in my entire time skating.

@tylerv82335 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the insights Ben. Some gems in there like the 'special meter' which in real life really helps. Lately I've noticed that if I start my session by skating fast, just doing easier stuff that I have down, it gets me more stoked and I end up having a lot more energy and confidence during the rest of the session. At 40 yrs old, energy and stoke don't always come as easy as they did at 18 so it's important to find ways to get into that flow.

Adding some structure to a session will defiantly help you progress faster and it will increase your overall longevity on a skateboard. i wish i though more about this stuff when i was a kid and i hope that younger people that watch your channel apply some of your wisdom Ben. as skaters we all want to enjoy it and see others enjoy it as long as possible. you're like a skate guru. good work.

You are a source of inspiration, Mr. Ben Degros. I'm back to skate at 44 after 15 yr "hiatus", zero sport activity (stuff). Maybe I should record my sessions and document how I'm re-learning everyting from scratch from pushing to falling. People around telling me it's impossible to make that come back when I'm already on it, I feel like wtf, I just been in the skatepark. I understand frustration vs progression, it was nice seeing those slides to hflip again and again, some people will only show their clean cool looking "wins", far from reality yes (mini yoda spoke). Btw, gota tell younglings at local skatepark to stop calling me "sir" when they bring my deck and ask me if I'm alright. Rolling over the floor is for now my best trait, I'm quite the stuntman but it's the right thing to do instead of hitting floor hard :) I needed to write these notes somewhere, this video from April 2019 was the right place.

My routine is slightly different but with the same idea. I got my routine from my mountain biking background. I start with the warm up, then move on to things that I’m working on but not quiet landing yet, then end with things I’m landing most of the time. In biking I warm up then do bigger jump lines and tricks and then end the day on medium jumps with stuff I’m confident on. I guess I do that because I know that near the end I’m tired and more likely to mess up. I also like ending the day/session feeling good about what I can do.

I have more trust into what my feet + board are doing and that's what gives me a good feeling. not necessarily learning new tricks but getting something like a routine back.

Nino Monti it's just a regular deck tho 🤷♂️ Not that you're asking, but I've only been riding plan b black ice or everslick decks for the last two years. The slick decks really make a difference. They both slide different but the plan b decks are lighter and stiffer than a standard deck👌but the graphics suck, but I don't care. I also try to get the widest but shortest deck possible. You won't believe the amount of control you will get with a stubby board. On average it's an 8.3 wide 31 long. The shorter the deck the easier it is to do 360 flips and all 180 flips like backside/frontside flips. You should give them a try 👍

Kit Sonne I'm 5, 11 size 12 shoes. I'm known to play around with different board sizes. I used to ride 8.5 up to 8.8, but right now I'm down to 8.3w 31"L. The bigger the board the easier all grinds and slides are for me, except back tails🤷♂️. The smaller the board the easier it is for me to learn new flip tricks, but I feel it's because the board is SHORTER 31" long. If your asking me what you should ride for now, I think you need a wide but short deck. Size 11 shoe needs some space for stability and short to help you execution flip tricks. You are tall so with the shorter deck will help with flicks because you don't have to drag as long to kick your foot out. Short decks spin around fast too, 360 flips just go. Since you are getting back into it I recommend thunder 151 hollow trucks. Thunder trucks are more forgiving for the casual skater. Thunder highs still feel low and even when loose they feel a little tight. This truck will without a doubt help you with you pop because of how stable it is. I'll see if I can find you some links for products. Keep in mind I don't care for brands I just like what works

I have the same approach when practicing my skating especially flat ground tricks. However looking back I kind of became a perfectionist with every trick I knew how to do, to the point that I wouldn’t really get to learn new tricks due to not getting out the warm up because my last set of back 180s didn’t “feel” right. I did this for months and felt frustrated with my lack of progress in learning new tricks. I recommend timing warm ups and forcing yourself to move on to new tricks even if unsatisfied with your warm ups.

I do the same. When i tart to feel frustrated, or just start to feel tired, I do something else. Something i know i'm comfortable with, then i pretty fast start to have fun again. I usually push it just too far from what I should. In my experience, the next day, i land at least one time, or at least have a much better feel to it.

If there was ever a slam that is most enjoyable … it’s off the nose after sticking 😅 Great advice 🤙🏽

that park looks so chill tho. super wide spaced out so you can take you time between obstacles and form some cool lines. or just work on one or two things.

My Routine is cruise around a bit, try ollies, fail, repeat, get 5cm off the ground, be happy, try harder, repeat lol

Exactly what i was searching for the whole time and the you upload it out of nowhere. Thanks for your knowledge. By the way, later on this year I'm visiting your country for a gap year. How about a little skate session together when I visit Vancouver? Greetings from Germany 👋

Ben you are amazing for doing these videos! I just recently bought a board and started skating again for the first time in about 8 years. These videos make me happy there are other guys in their 30's progressing in their tricks. I'm going to start using this type of routine for myself! Kickflips and heelflips are pretty consistent, but trying to get back my fs flips, and to learn nollie flips and bs flips. Btw if Primitive isn't at least flowing you boards, that's wack lol

I like when the camera gets knocked down, realistic skating as a viewer

The board always finds the camera, it is actual pretty amazing the angles and distances a board will travel from to find the camera.
