CAN DEREK OLLIE OVER A SKATEBOARD?!

[@Avaddon911]

Putting Derek on camera was a great decision I love to see this guys progression

[@LeSkateWA]

Derek seems like the coolest guy, hes so chill on camera, its crazy

[@joshuaschmidinger3993]

Derek has a great personality and is honest about his fear, I appreciate him 😎👌 the other thing is I know he has this just like the kickflip(it's all in his head)the difference between those that do and those that don't is try and not giving up. You gotta want it. Derek is a champion in the making(you can tell)imagine if he just goes for it and takes off...sky's the limit 👏 love this experience and journey with Derek. Love braille ❤

I'm glad a lot of comments point out that watching Derek face some fears, have uncertainty and getting pushed to do something. it really resonates with the audience.

[@1upmushroom13]

I like the mindset lessons. A trick isn't as scary after you try it or after you fall from it as it is when you're thinking about it before trying, and just focus on the ollie required to make it over the obstacle instead of thinking about the obstacle itself. I'm a casual skater, so I've only been able to ollie over a 2x4 laying down for one day. I should try ollieing over a broomstick like Derek since it's a great transition and I can already ollie over a fire lane paint line. I already have a push broom that I could use that's for cleaning a parking lot before skating in it.

[@scoobyishere1889]

Makes me feel a better watching someone struggle with the ollie makes me feel like im not the only one. Watching all the braille team do all these crazy tricks and they make it look so easy. Thank you Derek.

[@witzer]

You got this Derek. I still have the same exact issue with my kickflips that you do man. My backfoot is always kicking out too much.

[@Kujawa117]

Got me cheering out loud and fist pumping for Derek.

[@cvnate619ify]

You spelled kickflip wrong

[@earthleaf9567]

He also spelled Gabe and drop in on vert wrong.

[@thc_smaxks107]

Nah autocorrect saved them

[@jamesortega2340]

I didn't see any spelling in this video, except the title. Which was spelled correctly.

[@JBLanga]

Bbbrrruuuhhhhh😂😂😂

[@djmax01]

​@@earthleaf9567 hahaha

[@zacriley8946]

You know why the videos where Derek makes an appearance are the best, Dudes just so humble and genuinely stoked on his progression brings back the best part of skating for me that stoke when you finally progress.

[@surpriseshoveit3514]

Please! I’m waiting for the next part of this. Derek is so awesome to watch

[@NathanDeverill2000]

Loving the Derek content 👌

[@atarimetalhead]

FELT this for Derek - AWESOME buddy!

[@lilpoet27]

Way to go Derek! Loving the progress!

[@TheFryeday]

Awesome video! I have a decent rolling ollie, but can't find myself able to commit to go over something. This was exactly what I needed. Special thanks Derek and Gabe! (and Glo for the hype!)

[@AxLWake]

Same here. I pop a decent ollie while rolling. But getting over an obstacle is hard. You have to get the timing right, and the obstacle plays tricks on your brain. You somehow easily forget to pop or scrape your front foot towards the nose of the board. So, I can Ollie over very small stuff, but fail to go over something that I normally should pass easily.

[@chadsullivan3811]

Let's go Derek!!

[@davidwilson12590]

Glo is the best hype man of all time, I need that hype in my life

[@Sk8ofmind]

WE NEED MORE DEREK CONTENT! Road to true Am with Derek!

[@Sure2Skate]

Videos with Derek are the best! 😂😂 Even i got hyped that could Ollie those lol

[@HerbanFarmer420]

Derek is so chill!

[@twifightsparkill]

GO DEREK GO! HAPPY NEW YEAR BRAILLE! MISS AARON! 🤟🦄✨❤️

[@ladysumner2907]

Heck ya Derek! Way to pop off and land the ollies! We need to see your kickflip eventually and I can't wait. Now go get that boba!!

[@bigpappahemi4263]

Derek, you got this brother!

[@gblenemy]

I was really missing a "FIRST TRYYYY" when he cleared that at 16:02

[@mikemunny]

Derek.. bro one tip I could give, that I dont think anyone has suggested, that really helped me personally with kickflips, is that JUMPING is key... I used to kinda do the same thing and could flick it well and land my front foot on it.. bro you just gotta legit jump. and its yours 💯

[@SNIPEZONE23]

It might've helped for him to see a replay of clearing the board, but the struggle is real! Derek your helping beginners like me, keep it up 😊

[@jayd5982]

Derek you’re crushing it brother ✊Progression is nigh 😎

[@lorentsenjr]

lets go Derek! also, drop in Gabe!

[@BigBlacck]

shoutout to GLO for the Morel support and Gabe is a great teacher

[@eyemastervideo]

Crazy how that fear that stops the jump from happening. I get that as well. I used to ollie on a picnik table in my teens, and now 30 years later, I get that freezing fear when I ollie on a 1 foot high platform. We know we can do it, but the brain still says no.

[@BlueRogue100]

I relate to derek

[@duckyjp17]

Derek is the man

[@jacobgomez5371]

Fire video🙏

[@arturovalentin3760]

Let's go Derek!! 🇵🇪🇵🇪🇵🇪

[@JBLanga]

Thank you derick❤️You helped me Ollie over curbs, can I send you a video☺️

[@MikaTarkela]

Derek's ollies are already better than mine. I need to get back to skateboarding as soon as the snow disappears.

[@uhhsomeonehelp]

derek practice lifting her back leg idk what’s up with no one telling you that they always mention front foot this front foot that but you gotta make sure your back leg comes up as well that’s your issue.

[@Coolbreezers]

What about one solid row of heavy duty staples on the length of the bottom edge of half a deck and a solid row on the opposite top length edge...? Would it flip easier?

[@braillearmy]

hmmmmmm

[@Coolbreezers]

I'd watch it 😏

[@Napesnake]

That thumbnail though 😂

[@ssniperkat6835]

Give my man his boba!!

[@RayBeauchamp-g9e]

Derek bend down bend your knees you can do it!

[@ukaryotik]

lets go derek !!👌👌

[@jayflow7022]

I’m sorry but when he said I have “an 8 inch special for you” I lost it the childish in me came out I’m sorry 😂😂😂

[@cbrvench2483]

give him his boba!!

[@SNIPEZONE23]

Practice falling, it helped me get over the fear of falling... At least once I stumbled and laughed at myself I loosened up and enjoyed the rest 😆👍

[@hkr321hkr]

The board doesn't make the man. It's what he can do with it that counts! 😎

[@ThatBroIsCool]

Video idea: have you guys tried having a race? Yall have done floor is lava courses. But what about who is fastest in a straight line? Give the guys the same board, wheels, and bearings. OR time everyone using the same board

[@degerdi]

The necklaces rubbing against microphones, wouldn’t be Braille if the video didn’t start with ear piercing metal noises

[@Dirk_Berserk]

i know right. i think that they do it purposely at this point. probably to get more comments to help with the algorithm. it is gross and unprofessional, in my opinion. i love braille, just not this.

[@MrHobbi2]

LETS GOO DEREEEEK

[@MrHobbi2]

fronstide ollie next?

[@COVED_93]

Derek needs a Boba inspired pro deck 🧋

[@ryanrowe1975]

Let's Go

[@wildlandsairsoft5499]

I wanna see a Gabriel Cruz Persistance

[@SenorNico22]

What about that kickflip Derek ?

[@SaccoBelmonte]

Oooooh yeah.

[@sharkb8quintessatg160]

you should wait till it soooo razor tail it brakes n then get a new board. id be sk8n that think even with hella no pop lol.

[@MrJunk78]

Aaron: Master Oogway Gabe: Master Shifu Derek: Po

[@MilkDud336]

First comment for the Braille Army🤘🏼

[@souperdave2009]

Yesss 🔥

[@ricosuave0809]

Come on Derek if you land a kick flip so will I

[@patricktheriault4123]

Up to about 6 minutes into the video, at least, he is being honest with you.

[@Apr0x1m0]

Derek had that last one, he wouldve cleared the board. But he was right, he didnt commit to the speed. You could see him hold back on the push slightly compared to the others and didnt give him the speed to clear. Everything else was there.

[@SilentShadeShua]

Nice job, go as fast as you can. Soon you cant get any faster without momentem get used yo skating fast with no trqnsition. Helps

[@moopytoast]

"GIMME MY BOBA!"

[@JBLanga]

I'm one of those people who are looking up to Derek for inspiration 😢

[@danielrose933]

Um.. speaking of terrified ..... Gabe ... well.. you know

[@shojingod]

He need to get use to ollie with more speed. It makes it hard for him to ollie over the board going slow.

[@RC-88]

He did commit , he had not enough air, Might’ve Ollie’d too late.

[@claudiusraphael9423]

W D!

[@claudiusraphael9423]

lol did the 69 like, too

[@matthewcharboneau733]

I don't like Boba either

[@Kevin-me2dz]

"why are you letting a tiny, little stick rule you life?" Men. Am I right?

[@ThatBroIsCool]

You do work at braille Derek. You should get a new board

[@braillearmy]

10000%

[@WilliamFrederick-e2f]

Just ducking drop in... You know what I mean.

[@1xXBCDXx1]

Are Gabe and Derrick family? They look like cousins or something.

[@Maelsethe420]

"CAN DEREK OLLIE OVER A SKATEBOARD?!" WHO ?! and yes probably otherwise you wouldn't have made a 22 minute long video about it ... now lemme see if i was right edit: SHOCKERRRRRRRRR i was right ... and i didn't even have to watch the video

[@xposition2001]

First lesson is mics and necklaces don't work together Derek. I'm out.

[@Analogy13]

I will do one like for every push up this comment gets

[@KrisWhite-fn4cr]

Well done Derek with all the work ... Yap looks like your do need a new 🛹
