Chad Caruso hi I am 15 and want to start skating is it to late to start? If not would you recommend getting a custom built board?

[@Nataliesk8s]

@@brittanysheets3979 never to old to start skating!

[@damianb2374]

For me, the golden rule is: every single trick, try it on the flat first, learning balance, then move to tiny mini ramp/bank, then onwards. Tape or chalk for coping on flat. But even then, wear pads including wrist guards.

[@tomthumb7103]

Hi Chad are you using hi or low trucks?

[@AlexG1020]

I've never tried them but a switch rock does not seem like a beginner trick lol. Nose manuals are really hard

[@AlexG1020]

@x _ x that makes so much sense actually, Thanks!

[@Derekgromling]

Ur a god

[@jam12008]

I’ve done it, I can do them all!!! 😀

[@minijogge]

I just learn feeble grind

[@Sicnus]

Thank you for posting the video! I'm 51 and learning to skate. Today I got out in the pool for the first time and had a blast. Sure, I was just riding the pump and carving around (no tricks) But I had a blast. Thank you for all you and other KZbinrs do for us. Subbed.

[@7747073]

Nice that's awesome!! Love to hear people skating. Did it as a teen and picked it up again at 30 made the last year a blast!

[@1974JessMan]

inspiring man. Picking it back up after 20 year break

[@wackamole1128]

I wish my dad could skate with me, he built me a mini ramp outback and he wanted to drop in and rolled his ankle, and he even says he wishes he could but he’s ”too old and breakable” or whatever

[@LordJHouse]

Trick tip for axle stalls: Start in axle stall position, then drop in. This helps people get comfortable standing on the coping with their trucks locked in, then pivoting into the ramp (that's half the trick). I've shared this with so many skaters who were struggling with axle stalls and baaaaaam, they pretty much got it immediately after they started at the top.

[@lesageduvillage7494]

the same goes with feebles, drop with one truck on the coping the other one on the top of the ramp and bam

[@krystalo7900]

Gonna try this. Thanks!! 😊

[@robertborden2666]

I got a tip on starting stall drop ins and it got easy after a few tries. I haven’t tried it on bigger ramps yet. I bet it would help to do your trick.

[@damianb2374]

The axle-in is - to me - scarier than a regular drop in as you are standing truck on coping which feels alien. Metal on metal. Doing the axle-in off a curb on the road is a great way to get the shoulder swing movement dialed in, then take it to a two foot ramp, knees bent, and point down to the ramp with forward arm as you swing in.

[@Ermisssss]

I struggle a lot to put my back weeks on the copinggg

[@ChadCaruso]

I’m going to be doing some more tutorial videos, what would you like to learn?

[@elvisromero3995]

Teach us how to varial heel!

[@EyesofDeceitOfficial]

How to transfer a spine, please

[@hailz44]

rollin in or caveman into transition would be so sick!

[@EyesofDeceitOfficial]

@@hailz44 Agreed

[@bertfechner417]

@Michael Davise seconded.

[@mikejmardis]

I’m a 50 y/o beginner to keep my daughters interested. You are the first I’ve seen that truly explains weight placement and shifting. TY

[@sergej5303]

Same here but 40

[@robertborden2666]

Pumping is definitely a trick, and definitely warrants mastering.

[@416cyclestyle]

Thanks for this, a bunch of 40 year old Dads needed a refresher course! Great teaching.

[@irf888]

Incredible video, it's perfect, simply put together without taking hours. Exactly what I've been looking for to help us. I am an older guy with a great Son who wants me to teach him (meaning I have to learn too), so I'll use this sequence for our learning. Get up to all these 10, then I'll back off to stay safe and let him go for the higher levels if he stays motivated. Thank you very much! Regards.

[@claysoggyfries]

I learned rock and rolls yesterday. They're less scary than rock to fakies

[@krissekross]

Yeah i agree. You can see where you're going

[@claysoggyfries]

@@krissekross Well the way I learned them was a weird story

[@krissekross]

@@claysoggyfries how?

[@claysoggyfries]

@@krissekross Well I was doing these nose bonks hitting the coping, but after I while I realized I was going over the coping and doing small rock and rolls, so I steadily kept trying to make them go over the coping so they could actually rock and roll

[@cookiemonster15781]

Clay Soggyfries I’m learning to skate now but I have a huge fear of falling off for some reason, any tips?

[@quedgeleyshredders7061]

Finally, a trick tip video in an order that makes sense. Thanks man!

[@pogolaugh]

I learned to drop in before rock to fakie 😂 otherwise pretty much agree. It was also on a much smaller quarter pipe

[@darthnihilus4074]

Pogolaugh yeah same

[@joewalkerskateboarding]

I'm 27 and just started skating a few months back -- these videos are incredible for beginners -- Cheers Chad

[@Craziejohnny64]

Can you do a 10 Advanced tricks Video (On mini ramp)

[@ZackDowdy]

I like that!

[@Luetlife]

Maybe 10 medium rare one first and then 10 advanced. I love streetskating but I really wanna step up my mini ramp game. Mflg

[@Craziejohnny64]

Jakob Lütgenau same bro

[@Hannah-eu8sv]

Wow! I learned a lot of these out of order: 1-drop in 2-pump 3-rock fakie 4-kick-turns 5-backside rock and roll I have a small ramp in my drive way but it is hard to do a slash and other ones where you need a good angle so I would love some suggestions on what to learn next!

[@oinkoink1909]

You can do slash grinds without a lot of room, a slash grind is a kickturn that goes up high enough that it touches the coping, meaning you typically do it head on anyways

[@joshc3400]

I have watched multiple ramp tutorial videos and this is the best explaining as of yet, you really understand the mindset a learner is in. Thank you.

[@Shralps]

37 and just got back into skating after nearly 15 years. My ankles stopped me street skating cause they don't like high drops anymore... So decided to take up mini ramp instead. Really helpful video as I hardly ever skated transition back in my skating days. Subbed.

[@ouijiboards1946]

I'm a longboarder but I've been saying that transition skating is the real reason to get into skateboarding. This video makes it look realy accesable well done man!!

[@nicknovakk]

This was so sick! Thanks man!

[@robbiep475]

Chad Caruso As a man in my 30's aswell you inspires me to go buy a complete again and apply my energy into skating, you helped me lots man thanks so much keep shredding my dude rock on!

[@12345eatacake]

I have just had a proud moment of my self. Around 4 months ago I started skating, and I watched this video after learning to drop in . I have just rewatched this video for some ideas of new tricks. I can do all these now !!! I'm proud to say I have completed this beginners video!! Thank you so much for the videos man with out then I don't think I would have fallen in love with skateboarding.

[@krystalo7900]

I had my little one last year during the COVID shutdowns. It was way too hard on me being inside and just all the changes of being a new mom. I went for it and built an 8ft by 22ft half pipe with my husband in our backyard. I can finally drop in and do rock n rolls. I hope I get some of these new tricks down soon! Thanks for sharing! 🙂🤙🛹

[@ABSCrunchFit28]

Love this! Got back into Boarding two years ago and attended a Mini Ramp Clinic this past September! Best thing ever to boost Confidence!

This video is the best tutorial for miniramp starters. ❤

[@dukralo1247]

Just need a finishing touch to stay on top of the ramp on the tail stall, and will have all these tricks down! Thanks for all the tips chad!

[@mattcordell368]

Thanks for putting dropping in at #8! I'm getting back in, after 20 years. Never managed to drop in back in the day, but had a lot of fun just pumping and kick turns. Makes much more sense mastering these before throwing myself down a ramp. Great progression sequence.

[@df238]

This was soo fricking good, perfect tutorial imho and all these tricks are obtainable relatively quickly without too much risk and after that so many other tricks are possible i think. Thank you

[@bv6377]

watching chad do a kickturn in slo mo is hilarious. i mean, he's chillin chillin

[@theone4629]

hay bud! Great video!! I I’m 32 now just got back into skating after 14 years lol just found your channel it’s awesome really is great stuff I’m a big fan!! Keep it up 👍

[@ewanhill677]

Wish I had the benefit of these tutorials thirty years ago! So much more beneficial than learning by watching others without the tips on body positioning etc. Makes me want to start from scratch and try it all again.

[@stuartliddle7228]

Swing analogy is just right, good work and respect! Heavily recommend learning fs and bs at the same time.

[@elliepond9863]

I am learning 2 skateboard on my mini ramp and this video is really helping. :)

[@Jack-xy4fy]

im learning how to skate at 29 and i think what you said right at the start (immediate results and confidence boost) is so accurate. thats exactly why im going to learn mini ramp before going back to ollies and flips. im 4 days in and seeing loads of progress already and all of the progress is coming from the mini ramp work! thank you so much subscribed and put the bell on!

[@areee3915]

Really Great Video!!! Thank You Chad!!!

[@robertfrescott4051]

Haven’t skated since I was 12... 26 going on 27 trying to get back Into skating thank you for this video... love this park gonna get there soon and try these let alone drop in only skated street never had the balls to try vert, very smooth and very detailed thank you

[@bionichobbit]

So today at the age of 33 I decided after a 15 year gap to get back on a board. I went to my local mini ramp and started from scratch. Within in about 20mins I was back pumping and doing bs kick turns. Tried a few rock to fakies and managed to land some if a bit shaky. Safe to say I'm not as fit as I was but it was great fun. This video helped a lot. Thank you for the vids.

[@pablodublin7424]

Suddenly I'm in high school again learning these tricks. Thanks for the video!

[@tonyhein9238]

I can drop in but face planted hard when attempting a rock to fakie. This video helped me understand that I feel because I had my back leg straight (the leg in used to keeping straight when dropping in). Thanks Chad!

[@andrewadams9948]

Handy wee video for tips. I like all your videos I've seen. You're a cool guy Chad 👍

[@barnesfambam646]

It’s crazy cause everytime I go to the skatepark I end up teaching someone to do the simplest tricks. I always tell them one of the first few things to learn and get comfortable with is the balance on a board. Loved the video dude

[@cksocco26]

I wish I had this tutorial when I first started skating 16 yrs ago..I got myself freaked out with dropping in then became a mom to 3 and stopped fully.. :( so dumb of me but now Ive started again and will totally be referencing your video! This is the best one yet with breaking which ones are good start with then progress to....so thank you!!

I think this is my new favourite channel ❤️

[@aronkovacs1386]

learning pumping and proper body position is key. First time rolling into a bowl (Which is basically a rounded ramp) I crashed hard pretty much in less than 3 seconds later. It's important to keep control of your center of mass to roll in the direction you want to go without the board flying out from under you.

[@liamnanninga]

Thanks for the tips

[@nil4309]

awesome tips, you have given me lota of confidence you look like a cross between Andrew lincoln and Jon Bernthal!

[@themanunleashed]

It took a long time to attempt the drop in. I lays felt like I was about to die in a pit of lava, even if it's a 3ft ramp that's really not as inclined the ramp in the video lol. Felt amazing once I dropped in for the first time.

[@alidelatierra]

“I felt like I was about to die in a pit of lava” I’ve never heard dropping in as a beginner so perfectly described😭 feels so good when u do it tho

Awesome! I just got back into skateboarding after having had a 31-year break. I spent some time in a mini ramp last week and got fs and bs kick turn, drop-in, and rock to fakie down. I will take your advice from this video for the other tricks as I'm fearing grinds and axle stalls due to having had a lot of hang-ups in the past.

[@intransition8548]

Yeah... Chad is back!!!😆😆😆

[@toniiicarbonelll287]

Just brilliant

[@swiftkck]

BRILLIANT VIDEO

[@robertborden2666]

I think I’ll have to keep this video on my watch list and see if I can get each one of these over this season. I have kick turns and drop ins down and am emerging on R2F and RnR, and have done one BS slash grind accidentally on the Tanner 6’ side. Fly outs I could probably nail using the right ramp, then I’d need stand up grind, tail stall, and switch rock.

[@rollsaround2096]

Thanks for the tips dude. I just started trying the mini ramp yesterday and luckily I had a good intuition do some of the stuff you said naturally. But now I know where to head next. I appreciate you taking time and making some an Informative banging video. You rock bro. From a dude who's been skating for 2 months lol

Loved the video.

[@galacticjuicedaddy1305]

First thing i always tell people is to get used to just riding the board before trying to do anything else. Just riding around the streets. Be comfortable just being on the board. Makes learning tricks a lot easier and helps you build your style early one.

[@joshrodine705]

Interesting what you note about the challenges of dropping in versus things like the fakie tail stall. I haven't skated in 15 years (very much wanting to get back into it, but I'm now 46 ...). When I was going to parks with some regularity in my early 20s, I never had a problem dropping in (biggest ramps I was dropping into were around 7'), pumping, or doing a rock n roll, but I could never do the stuff that really required my body to get above the coping (e.g., fakie tail stall, axle stall, etc.).

[@BARUMAKESWEIRDVIEDOS]

this is a really good video thank you

[@MrTKorho]

What a great collection of the basic tricks. Some of them need lots of courage from beginners, but you represent them just properly, without fuzz.
