[@SmokeandSpirit]

Props to Tommy for being an OG and going straight to the source, and balls deep, learning at a skatepark for his first go. Most people cant handle all that social pressure. That took guts.

But lowkey at first I thought I was gonna cringe when she first just straight up said she's doing it to give a good impression but like well at least she was honest n it got her to get on a board by herself that's how you learn is just ride it

Hi Ricky, I like sk8

[@surpriseshoveit3514]

Emma. She seems to me like she would fit perfectly into the scene. She had fun and thats how it should be. But if you are a true skater, you step back on your board for the rest of your life, even if you have breaks between.

emma for sure

I'm impressed that Addison Rae put the time in to ollie and shuv. It took my 2 years to get to an ollie like that on concrete.

[@nikosucksatskating]

2 years?? Damn. Were you having trouble committing, or was it the actual learning that got you?

[@DarmokAtTanagra]

Both girls did so much better than the dudes and seemed to be having more fun. Addison is prob a cpl weeks of regular skating away from landing a bunch more beginner/intermediate tricks

[@matschrepf]

Charlie is a pro he is just to good for us humans to be able to comprehend his tricks. To us it looks as tho he is just barely pushing awkwardly but infact he is skating an unimaginable line that we might as well be chickens watching Einstein unravel the secrets of the universe.

[@Elijah42069]

Its like watching something happen so fast, you didnt see it happen. He is truly a master

[@fantasticesther]

I was gunna order a skateboard online…but then I chose to go into the one skate shop we have in the area and I have zero regrets about that. The guy in the shop was amazing, he said wicked a lot but he was so useful, told me about good skateparks around, gave me stickers and a magazine. Stickers will always win me over.

My prayers are with you on a very fast and healthy recovery. Miss seeing you skate bro. And as soon as you are back on the board, I need a lesson on how to dark slide. Could you do a tutorial on how to do a dark slide? You are really good at explaining on how to do the tricks.

[@rickyglaser]

Thanks, Got the tutorial right here for you, good luck! kzbin.info/www/bejne/bpzZe3hjpbF8g7s

@@rickyglaser Thank you so much brotha! It would be awesome to shred together! Oh, yeah! What did you think of the Braille Camo board I sent to you guys? It was the one where the dots glow in the dark. Lol. Took about 8 hours to paint it. I made it as a "thank you" to you guys. You all helped me out during a really dark time in my life. So, again. Thank you so much!

[@thereviewstudiosmovies]

Another well-done video, Ricky. Thanks, the two girls seemed like they really wanted to learn. The guys just made a joke of it.

[@Jacktarts]

Trying to drop in before you try anything, sheesh. Almost went for it with the help of another, that takes courage. Cool to see anybody trying skateboarding and seeing them laugh at themselves failing/succeeding. Seems like Addison did the best but probably had some riding before this. So I feel like Tommy wins for really trying. Going out to a park with strangers and just seeing what its all about straight off the bat is cool. Awesome video.

[@chad933]

I tried to drop in before I even learned to stand on the board. It was an amazing experience for my tailbone, that much is real. zero commitment, dropped my butt before my body and slid right behind the board. 10/10 would do it again

[@SmokeandSpirit]

Call me Kevin did one and he actually documented something like a few different days of practice, his learning progress, and all the fears he had to struggle through. Think his was more in depth than any of these you showed. Still cool seeing people give it a try.

[@rickyglaser]

Yeah i reacted to it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4qrgWhjptFnrLs

i wasn't expecting you to talk about tommy here 😭 all of my recommended videos are either about skating or dsmp (mostly tommy) so seeing them cross over for a second here put me into a state of shock for a couple seconds ngl

[@welkin1080]

the idea that someone could jump a five stair on their first day of roller skating is comical💀💀

[@tofferijere]

I bet some Finns can do that, because we are used to do ice-hockey. ;)

[@welkin1080]

@@tofferijere ok yes that is understandable

[@CozyToad]

​​​@@tofferijereckey helps a lot for sure, but 5 is ambitious for most. I was able to work up to 5 stairs within a day of trying stairs (certainly not on the first day roller skating), but I also both played hockey up to university and figure skated when I was younger. 5 stairs skateboarding was definitely harder for me, but I never had prior experience in a similar sport. 5 stairs for someone who has never roller skated before... About as likely as someone who has never been on a skateboard doing a drop in on a quarter pipe day 1.

[@allaboutthatbass741]

Braille should definitely have her come learn from y'all. She shouldn't skate for the sake of others but herself

[@AlpineShenanigans]

So funny Braille only having one upvote in that comment section

[@PW.6060]

As an aggressive blader, I assure you it's not as easy as you think it is. 5 stair jump on the first day is quite a stretch. Learning to jump AND land on wheels that you can't bail from is a trick.

Lol its 1000x easier than skateboarding but whatever floats your boat.

i learned how to roller blade and jump on them and land fine in a day. it took me a month to be comfortable on a skateboard

[@okctrl]

Clearly an ego driven response. Either way what hes saying is true for almost any sport. Everyone learns things at different paces. I've seen people get ollies down instantly and bring them to sets essentially day one. I've also seen people skate hard every day for 5+ years and i can count how many tricks they can do on 2 hands. Everyone learns things at different paces just accept it.

[@Why_Knott_Me]

@@rickyglaser what shoe brands work for skating? I have off brand flat sneakers that work well for me.

[@airjuri]

When i worked at local skateshop i always recommended blank board and good enough other items for beginners. The deck is least effective for skateboarding experience unless it is actually bad. We didn't sell bad decks :) Why blank board? They're cheap and made in same factory as pro boards so they are good. If beginner decides that skateboarding is not they thing it didn't cost too much to try.

awesome!

I like the first Girl because she did everything herself and did pretty good . That is the best way to start in my opinion . If you can't motivate to skate alone you are probably doing it for the wrong reasons .

I guess it's more like character or type of personality thing. Some people are just built different. But I share your opinion.

Why did Ricky say that anybody can gap a 5 stair on roller skates 😂😂😂

[@haggardskates9537]

😢😢

[@ArtisticAbee]

I’ve been skating for 3 years now, with massive breaks but still. I can’t drop in, I used to mongo but a skater gave me advice to be mongo no more. It’s hard, I’m reasonably young so It’s kind of easier to do it without worrying of the injuries, but I get scared all the time. Skating gives me the best adrenaline although and I’m so happy I’ve taken it up.

[@forg0tten]

Thats hilarious you found a Braille comment on the Emma Chamberlain video.

[@VEGITOBLUE-q8w]

I like this This should be a series Grip job

[@baconscoobysnacks3135]

Learning any new tricks is really about understanding the movements and pushing through that fear of failing/falling. I used the internet for the steps and broke them down into understandable sections instead of just trying to do it mindlessly. For an olli popping the tail starts the initial lift off the ground, sliding the foot raises the tail further into the air(make sure you really let your ankle roll so the side of your shoe can make contact with the grip tape), lift both legs evenly levels out the board, then stick the landing. If I gave any new skaters advice it would be to take full advantage of the internet, look up tutorials, and try to understand each action and what its purpose is in the trick.

[@MITUS]

Even as someone who has skated since they were 9 years old, some skate stores can be super intimidating because of the old shop pro that is usually super jaded.

[@ethansmyth8110]

Love these reaction vids

[@erics2091]

Poser: owns a skate board with brand new clean wheels, everyday. Why are your wheels so clean? Do you carry it everywhere? 🤣 Buuuuttt just jokes. More skaters the better I say. Some “posers” might just be too intimidated to ask for help on how to learn. Yes of course plenty of videos online, but sometimes people prefer learning with someone. So who knows. Maybe that poser is just to shy to ask “how the hell do I do this?”. The real question is why are they posing? Because skateboarding is cool!

As a roller skater who tried skateboarding for the first time yesterday, can confirm, much easier to jump in skates, I still can barely balance on the board (but I also don't have much smooth area, there's no skatepark in my village) However I'm not a professional at roller skating so the professionals may disagree with me ofc, I just find it easier to do a little jump on skates than on a board

[@saffj4147]

I'll be honest with you (because it was featured in the intro) - sometimes the mall grab is just the best way to grab your board. Whoever calls you a poser for doing the mall grab is probably the biggest poser at the whole park.

[@Cc-xq8rr]

Over 10 min in the vid but distracted by the roller skate comment, it’s highly unlikely that you could throw on skates and jump down a 5-step on day one. I’ll assume you may have been exaggerating slightly, but even then, it was a weird and unnecessary comparison to prove that skateboarding is difficult, takes time to learn, and involves a lot of technique. + frontside stair jumps on roller skates aren’t really comparable to any noteworthy skateboard OR roller skate tricks, which both range from rotations, airs, manual variations, inverts, grinds and slide, transition tricks to coping tricks to flat tricks and every thing in between and around…we respect you. Respect us.
