Turning right before dropping into the quarter pipe was really awesome advice! I've been trying to build the confidence to drop in fakie for a long time and when you said that, it really clicked for me. Going to try this tomorrow morning (hopefully before the weed-wackers take over the park lol)

[@SebasMillions]

how did that go for you bro?

[@jackthesabersamurai9572]

Why are you in 2 comments sections in 2 consecutive videos? (this is video 2)

[@HiighStreet]

I used to skate 15 years ago and just started again last week and haven’t stopped since! I was using substances up until couple years ago which I could never find a good enough replacement until I found this love again. Thanks for re introducing me !

[@acostablades8138]

Keep it up, Skating is a total freedom

[@Jolly_juice99]

I fell on my face today trying to roll backwards and I find this in my recommended as soon as I left the skatepark. It’s like fate is screwing with me. 😂

[@acostablades8138]

Synchronicity.... I got you. lol Go get em!

[@petros8985]

Thanks man, you 're a great teacher.

[@acostablades8138]

I appreciate that! Thank you

[@corpsebiffi]

This is the video i was waiting for. Thank you. Make one teaching how to carving a bowl.

[@asphyxxiant]

Also how to carve a bowl switch! Very different things. I can carve at high speed to the top on my dominant side, but struggling to go more than a couple feet up switch.

[@acostablades8138]

Will do soon

[@70109004]

Carving a bowl video will be really nice, looking forward to it

[@rideblades007]

The weed wackers remind me of you having to shout over the wind.

[@acostablades8138]

That was a fun one lol

[@brandonpastore9924]

Dude I’m learning so much! I’m a veteran rollerblader that just got back into skating and even tho there are many people that teach, you are the Best teacher by far in my opinion. I’m so stoked to practice everything I’m learning. Thank you again for the great videos.🙏

[@acidnb]

Love your channel!! Thanks for tips deff will take these to the park 🙂

[@87.ad_]

U are a pro. Thanks for the advice

[@BladerReboot]

Thanks for the tip! Gonna practice this evening. Damn weed whackers lol. I just got back to blading after an 18 year hiatus, now 32. I just started this channel if you want to keep track of my progression back. I’m so bad right now, but my goal is to encourage other skaters who aren’t great to put themselves out there and try.

[@streetzwaatchinn]

Me tooo bro

[@robdigital1383]

Awesome channel bro 💪💪

[@12derik12]

Just got back to rollerblading and thought about making the transition to parks, and now I find these really clear and amazing videos to learn from. Thanks man highly appreciated \m/

[@acostablades8138]

Have fun!

[@daviddunneart]

Great video man gonna mess around with this next time at the park .. the turn in adds alot to this

[@Judgeshred88]

Thanks for that dude. Off to the park I go!!

[@z0mpfq]

Great vid! Exactly what I currently need to progress in skating. Picked it up recently after a ~6 year hiatus. Thanks so much!

[@acostablades8138]

Happy to help! and Welcome back!

[@james-ted-garland]

Great advice dude. I'll be at the park first thing in the morning

[@MalmieYngsteen]

Thanx man. Really good and informative as usual.

[@acostablades8138]

Glad you liked it!

[@rollingdubaiguy6415]

This was great! Of course the bad timing with the weed wackers was hilarious! But thanks for the great tips about rolling fakie. This is something I think looks so smooth and I want to get better at it. Thanks!

[@bernsahr]

Note to myself: Try jumping onto 30cm wide curbs 180' fakie slowly first before attempting it high speed. But in general is full fakie skating on a skating (each trick has to start or end fakie) an awesome and challenging experience!

[@Azuniite]

this is good

[@nshid1]

Love these videos that are more about technique than a specific trick! Would like to see a video about finding lines and keeping speed in a skate park

[@acostablades8138]

Coming soon!

[@edwardc7233]

Another banger for boyZ. The 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@bebe6181]

Your video is awesome. I like it man. I some thing help me as well soo thank you.

[@nigelbrown2274]

[@acostablades8138]

Thanks for watching

[@kchappelle]

Great video man.... This is just what I needed. I've got to get to work on this. Thanks... coming to you from Taiwan.

[@acostablades8138]

You got this!

[@32dafunk]

Another excellent tute dude!! Your video got me so inspired to practice much more fake stuff-and I need that practice!!😆 Acosta crew keep it going!!

[@acostablades8138]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@RojazzBG]

Great video, thank you! Also, it makes me so happy that someone else gets annoyed by weed wackers.

[@bernsahr]

I was waiting the whole time for a fakie jump on the spine :-p Joke, great video, really helpful!

[@acostablades8138]

I got you next time i film at this park lol

[@wswan81]

Dang bro, you make it look so easy 🤪

[@VandKoala]

I was laughing at the weed wa(n?)kers so much 😂😂😂 great video man, as always! Thanks!

[@DanRoworth]

Great stuff man! Gotta work on those fat zero spins you do 😍

[@FreakinSpooky]

Is there a video in how to rotate wheels for aggressive inlines? I got a pair of Aeon 60s and I'm not sure if the same rules of rotation apply to these.

[@ORACYmusic]

Any tips for rolling fakie up quarters? I can drop in fakie and pump ramps rolling back up fakie, but once I get close to or reach the coping it goes pear shaped.

[@rollykid]

thank you for good training material Question: You always jumping with dominant leg? or you are training the other leg in front?

[@GodKiller97]

What skates are you using? They look so nice

[@Sapfo26]

Great tutorial, inspirationel🙌 To roll up fakie in a miniramp and stal the coping is really tricky. Do you have any lesson/tutorial on that?

[@acostablades8138]

Great suggestion! Ill have to make a visit to a local mini and make a video on this

[@Sapfo26]

Love ya man, that would really make my day❤thanx for responding, have a Great day now, cheers🍻👌

[@dashdigital5869]

i have some skates that my friend gave me like a few years ago. theyre Salmon's size 10. i dont think they make those anymore. ive never really used them and even though theyre pretty good, i think theyre a little too big for me, where can i buy some new ones?

[@oldmanrolling3770]

Awesome. I was just learning this. Got the banks carnt bring myself to do the quarters yet. Is it easier to go to a small on e first or a medium one for a slower transition?

[@bernsahr]

Is it the fear which is holding you back or the technique? For less fear = smaller quarter, easier technique = medium quarter For me it help to roll up forward until i locked in on the coping, then skating backwards down. After that i started at the coping and let myself falling back (aka fakie drop in), then it is a short step to fakie jump in

[@oldmanrolling3770]

@@bernsahr definitely fear. I can roll up stall and back in front and back and 180 but carnt bring myself to throw myself backwards off the top.

[@Sapfo26]

@@oldmanrolling3770 I feel you, scarry shit😖

[@bernsahr]

@@oldmanrolling3770 If you can roll up forwards, stall, then roll down backwards, you can also just standing on the coping and drop in backwards (literally the same movement). After doing that 5-6 times (for me more like 10 times) slowly roll onto the coping backwards (from the top), lock in on the coping and drop in backwards. After that you are ready to roll in backwards, and this will develope to jump in backwards. But each step will cost a huge amount of willpower and commitment of course.

[@oldmanrolling3770]

@@bernsahr I'll give it a go when the rain stops.

[@Daedje]

Really feel like we are skipping a step here, do you have a tutorial specific to jumping in to the quarter that i missed >? The regular drop in (1 foot on coping and stepping in) i have and i'm pretty confident skating fakie. But no way am i ready to jump into a quarter like that (fakie or regular).

[@82christos]

Hey guys i got a problem here. I got some old Valo EB1 and the tongue of the boot is just solid plastic so it digs into my shin whenever push against it and it bruises me badly and makes it hard to skate. Any tips on that? I was thinking of either drilling holes in it to make it bendier or just using the tongue as a stress ball to make it softer.

[@acostablades8138]

Man thats a bummer. When i skated valos i had a similar problem. I replaced/Upgraded the liner and it made all the difference. Some times with time the liners lose their comfort.

[@eachinteColombia]

I'm just waiting my Shima Razors skates and protective gear arrive to begin again, but at my 40's 😂

[@acostablades8138]

Thanks!

[@emmanuel7899]

Lol 😂 gardeners same thing happened to me

[@justjordan8018]

OK going down anything backwards is a lot harder then I expected. Something weird happens to my brain :) I'm gonna need more time to figure this out.

[@ferki31]

👏👏👏👏😊👏😊👏👏👏👏

[@jesterhead9]

I'm 31 and I really want to try to get back into aggressive inline! However, Every website I look at doesn't have skates in my size. My shoe size is a 10.5 So I've been looking for 10-10.5 sized skate. Has buying skates always been this difficult or is it due to COVID and the influx of people picking up old hobbies?

[@niklas_trixx]

check out hedonskate.com or grindhouse.eu those are my favorite

[@asian_blader2033]

that intro hahahaha

[@eshelngr]

Is dropping in fakir considered advanced

[@acostablades8138]

It can be, all depends on the height of the ramp.

[@eshelngr]

Ok

[@forestfairy352]

I know obviously going backwards is unnatural but rolling backwards down a ramp... I can’t do it. My back skate always decides to just go on the toe stop or start to turn around. Struggle. Oh whoops: I’m on quads lol but the technicalities are the same I would say 😂

[@noitnova]

I love weed. Hahaha. Thanks for the tips

[@acostablades8138]

Colorado has some of the Best

[@chrisstraw1396]

Hi I'm 14 and my name is Nicholas I was wondering if you could maybe get me some skates I love to skate but the one that I have right now or I completely messed up makes a buzzing noise when I skate but I was just asking could you please get me some more skates

[@khyrakerr4909]

Jesus Christ died for the sins of the world. He died for the people that you hate, the people that are neglected daily, the people that are abusing drugs, he died for murderers, thieves, homosexuals, people that cheat on their partners, people that falsely accuse others, and more. Jesus is the only way to heaven. Anything else is a deception. With Jesus' sacrifice on the cross, He set an example for us. We now work out our salvation by changing the way that we live by imitating Christ. We are called to no longer live in sin, but fight against it for the rest of our lives with the help of Jesus
