Everything I Know About Mini Ramps in 90 Minutes

[@JhebadiaSprunklefunk]

Man I gotta say while there are plenty of tuts out there for these, that none of them can compete with the level of explanation you give! It's detailed in terms of specifics but sooo concise, so not to bloat or overload. Like some peeps will make a 20min tut on one stall and the viewer's info absorption rate flatlines. But this is so damn on point. "BAM do this, not that. Ya golden." I didn't really have ramps anywhere growing up, so while I can do a million things switch, my transition confidence is weak as hell. This has really helped me get more comfortable and fix alot of issues I had with stuff I could already do, as well as plenty that I couldn't. Some real gems in here!

[@SKATEiQ]

Sick!! Hopefully this helps with your transition skating man. I’m sure if you just get the basics down it will naturally grow from there

[@danthegeetarman]

Man, I wish I had a teacher like this 20 years ago. People don’t sleep on his tips!

[@jaemaz]

I started skating 10 years before Mitchie was born, but have arguably learned more from him in the past year about transition skating than in the prior 38 years winging it on my own!

bro you are an absolute legend for these long tutorials. so much insight on things I thought I knew but you are calling out why I bail so clearly I can actually turn around and know exactly where Im messing up

[@bigoak9417]

Can't belive this is free! I support you Mitchie. Very good job and thank you!

[@gaellemasson3176]

this one might save a lot of kids from injuries. I've been riding miniramps for more than 12 years and got a lot of good new advices from this lesson. In the name of skateboarding, thank you!

[@markgaddini9538]

Thank you Mitchie for these videos. I've followed some other pros for years and no one breaks down the critical tips the way you do. What you're doing is perfect. Seriously, these are by far the greatest skate tutorial videos from the premier, legendary, world-renowned pro, who has as much of a talent for coaching as being the first ever to deliver the world's NBD Big Air 1260, in the X-Games. There's absolutely nothing out there that comes close your talent for teaching. I'm just thinking how many people, who take the time really study your videos, you'll save from painful injuries. I wish I knew 1/1000th of what you've taught me, when I started. SERIOUSLY, THANK YOU!

[@af4237]

I haven't skateboarded in 20 years and won't in the future, but the way you teach and how you hold yourself pulls me in to your lessons.

[@gnartak3228]

This is a proper tutorial from a pro who knows what hes talking about, Mitchie has learned from the best, just knowing the truck placements and where your shoulders and hips should be at , i started skating in 98 and was never into transitions always scared to touch copping with my trucks, now as im older all i skate is mini ramp these past years, and just this past year watching your tutorials is correcting alot of mistakes ive been making and all i would do is practice my flip tricks in transtion, now this gives me the confidence to blend it all, Thank you and keep thrashin

[@TheMirrorslash]

If I had this 10 years ago I would have gone sooo much further with my skating. Picked it up again now and I'm already correcting countless mistakes that have always frustrated me and made me stop completely. thanks to you I actually feel confident that I can get to where I always wanted to be in skateboarding!

[@timpetzold6110]

You are probably one of the only skaters that are aware that your hip position actually matters. I surely haven't been up to this tutorial. It's always "lead with your shoulders" which is true but your tip on back d's tremendously helped with my fs boardslides on rails. Something just clicked at today's session and it just needed someone to tell me to be diligent about standing on the ground correctly with my hip facing forward. These videos help with progressing so much. Thank you!

[@kushisabishii4828]

Wow thats exactly what i was waiting for as i just started skating again at age 42. And i chose Miniramps over any other discipline so this video is the best thing i could have wished for. You are the best educator i have ever met across all disciplines

[@ryanwhite5118]

Mitchie what a tutorial. This is going to be THE mini ramp tutorial for the rest of time 👏🏻

[@birdman7450]

Sorry. I should have added a giant THANK YOU, THANK YOU for this content. I would not even be trying these tricks at 50 years old if I didn’t have your videos. You guys transformed my rock and rolls in one session. So grateful for your help.

[@DarkoNomad]

As a street skater I never liked the idea of mini ramp... but at my age now I see it as a proper challenge and a new adventure. Huge thanks for this :')

[@heinrichsmit2]

I just realized this is a new video, pretty good one too. Thanks for your generosity with this huge amount of content. Love the way you speak on these videos in a conversational way, very easy to understand.

[@itsCheezeh]

Mitchie!! Love to see how much the channel has grown in the past year! At 29 years old, I started learning skateboarding because of this channel. You make it feel like anyone can start learning at any age! Congrats on your continued success and keep on killing it!! Cheers.

[@SKATEiQ]

That’s amazing thank you!

[@henryw374]

addressing different kinds of kick turns 34:48 - surf/slash ones vs normal. I find I always tend to do surf/slash ones on bigger transitions... just out of fear or habit or something. gotta work on that. great vid Mitch. thank you. so much info in there.

[@jibbyfoob]

Your nose/tail stall tips were spot on - they really helped me. I had the problem of leaning too deep into the coping instead of staying in the ramp and just lifting my trailing foot. I was always afraid of the board slipping out under me if I were to miss the coping

[@VictorRomanC]

Wow! What a tutorial! Thanks Mitch for putting so many details for us to learn. I'm 52 and still skating, and we just got our first miniramp. Looking forward to learning more!

[@slowerfast]

Man! This gets me excited to finally learn to skate at the ripe age of 35. 1 month ago I was able to rock to fakie, tail stall, and maybe rock-'n'-roll on something small. After getting a good axle stall with all these tips it took like 20 tries to five-o. Wish this came out 20 years earlier!

Love that!! Keep it up

[@luiza177music]

You'd think that foot positioning tip wouldn't make that huge of a difference. And sure enough, once I got used to it I started feeling so much more stable. Another thing was maybe in another video where Mitchie says he thinks of everything in skating in terms of his hips. So, so helpful!

[@ZOMBEY-KILLUR]

I’ve been doing rock to fakies like the “bad” way for a bit now, where I don’t get halfway up. Watched the rock fakie portion and immediately went to the park, did them perfectly first try. I’m still a fairly new skater, only starting in January of this year and I feel like I’ve progressed so much from watching this channel. My 50-50’s are still a little too far inside the ramp, almost like a slash grind. But I’m slowly getting there :))

I finally landed a rock to fakie! I have battled that trick for so long. Great teaching! Thank you

[@nunovalerio7809]

Thank you very much, sensei! I wish I had a teacher like you back then to learn in a properly way and go much farther than I did. Even now, some tricks you show up here, which I could do back then (and I still can), I can improve, due to your deep skateboarding knowledge and good will to share. I start to skate at my 11 (year 2000) in a place which doesn't had 1 living soul skating at the time, and I found out too hard to develop, even to find out how to ollie. However with some written tips and a lot attempts (meaning a lot lot lot) I could do ollies, 180 fs, 180 bs (not clean), bs pop shove it, kickflip, heelflip, even treflips. Also some basic grinds (50, 5-0, nosegrind). Thank you very much for your help to people and to skateboarding!

When i was learning rock to fakie, i would manual back down till i could almost get into blunt stall. I think it helps with feeling the transition and lifting the front trucks up
