43 Year old street skater checkin’ in….I never learned to skate transition growing up but now with all the parks around I want to learn. This video was super helpful. Skate for life!

[@metakarbon]

It's hard to explain how terrifying the idea of grinding that coping is while your body hangs 11 feet in the air. thats what makes it so beautiful

[@stoops_eating_plants]

This is the first time I've watched a skate video and got confused.

[@ronaldhickman9953]

Actually for a select few.....not generically for everyone....skate like a man !!

[@liamjohn5695]

holy shit im so scared to skate bowls but i want to so bad...ive been skating for 12 years and im 18 now and ive been skating street ever since ive started

[@SportskoolPlus]

Thanks for sharing Liam. Have fun but always be safe and take it slow when trying something new.

[@rlunaii]

I've been skating since I was 15 I'm 43 now. I'm more scared of street skating than ramp or bowl skating. I guess it's just what you feel the most comfortable with. Bowl skating is just so relaxing. Street skating is more aggressive. I'm getting to old to be aggressive. Lol.

[@pierrephilipe6641]

Jose Luna I’m 13 and really want to get into transition skating (bowls,vert etc) because I think it’s much more safer than street skating, I’ve tried street and I broke my leg so I’m gonna move over to bowls and sty

[@danfromzr3289]

Pierre Philipe I’d have to agree. I’ve gotten way worse injuries street skating. But gotten way more adrenaline bowl and very. It’s scary as fuck. But safer. A fun combination.

[@oh7933]

how do you get out of one

[@rangaanangaa1290]

Climb

[@oh7933]

what is it is relly steep

[@downfromkentuckeh]

attack helicopter then set up camp, your living there the rest of your life.

[@rickskates5538]

this comment has been up for two years, hes probably still stuck in the bowl

[@Painless1992]

I came to whole new realization of how to skate bowls.

Stay high kids

[@vicinitydigitaldesig]

What freaks me out about the largest bowls, is the pool style edge, and coming off too far from the wall and plunging to the depths!

[@kellienicolebrooksschettin6598]

Yeah just a tip from a vert skater ,skating take great balance I come from a gymnastics back round and had gymnastics in school and learn how to roll around on mats with people helping and that really helped my skating because knowing how to roll or slide whenvu fall really keeps your brain focused,and clear,one of the most impressive things that pro skaters do that really blew me away was how they ride out a fall on their knees just like their still riding their board it was so incredible,I learned how not to fall skating vert because I started on real plywood 1977 ish and it burn away all my gear so I said the heck with this I just started making sure I landed all my tricks its a fine line of complete concentration but I also had a touring pro guiding me and showing me live excactly how,which I very thankful....one day I came into the indoor park and heard this noise of some going like 200 mph in the half pipe may be it was 300 mph I don't remember too long ago chow thanks again,practice practice practice..

[@mannymartinez1186]

When you getting ready to do Conor Air, do you pop your board before hitting the coping or bring the board up the coping

[@Josh-do4og]

I go to this skatepark sometimes

[@kellienicolebrooksschettin6598]

Yeah thanks for the tip I'm gonna watch this video a few more times,because when I was young 10 or 11,I learned how to skate vert in a 14 half pipe but I never got into and never carved I just did airs,so this is cool,practice and I'm gonna watch this video because I missing out on the best part of skating cruising around I got a friend who surfs water....and when he riding he pretty much is just all surfer he carves that's it me I'm fast because I learned how to pump a wall for every thing its worth right at age ten ,but now I'm 54 and I want to carve and I truly suck at it because I went straight doin air,I love it but I always am open to learn new stuff that's how you get better,piece out me need to study,ah um a skateboard technico. Hah ha thanks omar

[@soloist777]

Insane bowls!

[@anointingofseer2596]

Words of wisdom, be confident .

[@ericduminil]

Wonderful. Thanks a lot!

[@kellienicolebrooksschettin6598]

Any one who getting started if you notice you'll Dr us put arms out straight out for balance because with your arms out you can move them and leverage against a little loss of perfect balance if watch surfers you'll see there arms out so they swing against their arms to make turns and also helps u countet and keep your balance its actually pretty cool part of skating that really should master on flat ground because it enhanced your balance killer riding Omar you shred,Bevis u said shred ahhh ah ohaah.....cool

[@psalmsurfer1]

cant understand half of what youre saying

[@razakbaba9437]

Do you need loose trucks or tight trucks?

[@rucaslicks5183]

Whatever you are comfortable hitting a decent size hill

[@4R1P5R]

+Melville skater loose trucks all the way. you cant carve in a bowl with tight trucks.

[@deepsea9968]

But then you don't want speed wobbles either. I skate mine pretty tight.

[@TaruGamingBo2AndMore]

YaBoi Zak72 tight but not too tight because of serious speed wobbles.

[@luigithekidd1]

You need a parachute

[@bigkahunasc]

i was at mike fox today and i was so sketched out to even drop in on the mini bowl because its so steep

[@milesrose4778]

Bro the bowls at mike fox are sketchy as fuck, i never even try to do anything on them accept for the mini bowl XD

[@bigkahunasc]

@@milesrose4778 yea bro commented dis a year ago i can drop in on the bigger ones now but not the biggest one and they still sketch asf

[@kellienicolebrooksschettin6598]

Yeah I said practice ,practice the right way that important be mind full of what you're doing to teach yourself the right stuff try to not get bad habits at the start,that's crucial start the right way and ask the right people questions if u can.

[@arturocanas5295]

Can you rollin bowls like that?

[@sinkingfish9843]

Anyone know good wheels for skating bowls? Right now I'm skating 50mm 101DU, haven't tried anything else

[@nicktopolski9672]

slimballs are amazing for bowls they grip hard

[@hosoiarchives4858]

Git bigger wheels

[@dwatson3526]

56 mm bones 99a for me

[@karlmanning2603]

So much easier said than done.

[@anna2224]

Actually I think its easier done than said.

[@phoenelai]

love that, thanks!

[@kellienicolebrooksschettin6598]

Thanks for the post,nice flow ,ill send a lighting crew over in the morning ,I'm sure day bright sun was much worse to much reflection....me pop is master photo dude...piece out.

[@eileenlawrence2991]

that bowl is 11 and a half feet

[@drawwithbeektor6329]

I had no idea John Anik could shred this hard.

[@James-ip5gz]

Stay high kids

[@kellienicolebrooksschettin6598]

Thanks I gonna work on my carving,u probably heard this but I have good skate pal that just a carver,he's a surfer mostly and he carves so beautiful he's never done a kick turn when I watch him skate a pool,bowl...and in so envious,we are complete opposites I'm all fronts and backside kick turns and no carving,sadly,and he's all flow and carving were like the black and white logo of land and sea,I forget Its Ho designs from Hawaii,I'm building a new board for vert now and I'm gonna start fresh and try to carve,the video is a little hard to understand wouldn't hurt to show different camera angle coz its hard to see what u are doing carving from the camera angle behind u and when you are pointing up at the spot on the top of bowl its dark and I don't and can't tell where the point is you are referring to because there's no marks on the bowl and some stickers or tape mite help u can't tell there s even any vert because its so dark behind u and vague due to lighting ur talk is good understand what u are say but points of view is blurry due to darkness,may be shot from top looking down at that particular area could help me understand spots on bowl u are marking....thanks lighting is the real problem,mainly but a shot from the top would help,ok cut let try that again,more feeling...

[@kibaarea5192]

yeah

[@kosycat1]

That's only 11 1/12 foot there, looks higher?

[@navyplumberboy8274]

Ya it does. It looks bigger than the kona vert ramp and that's saying something

[@christinemoore-mcpeak1761]

I moved to where there is basically only a bowl. And honestly I can’t drop in... so now I’m super bummed since I can’t drop in. I’m 31! Been skating since 13! I never progress. Fml

[@hosoiarchives4858]

Christine Moore-McPeak at least you are good looking

[@nicktopolski9672]

just have to overcome the fear of skating, i can skate decent and drop in just about any bowl even i need to recenter and focus.

[@redwolfgames735]

Yeah

[@Man_Lantern_Skateboards]

heighth

[@wra7h]

Im watching this but have nowhere with a bowl and have never skated one

[@justinmusicandskateboardin9282]

It just doesnt seem worth it, trying to dance on a coping or get air above thats so dangerously tall. I love carving around a bowl but I have no desire to get up on 11 foot high coping just to do the same tricks I could be doing on a smaller ramp

[@justinmusicandskateboardin9282]

especially with the entire nature of grinds, especially on those fat chunky pool ledges that these huge bowls like to have, like you are GOING to stick and have some terrible falls at some point through no fault of your own

[@ninja_wolfofficial]

So i watch an 8 year old video for the first time and decide to lookup skateparks near me and this is on of the skateparks near me!!! This never happens lol

I’m sorry but this video really teaches nothing whatsoever. There is no way to learn how to ride a bowl without actually doing it.

skateboarding is not a sport

Yes it is. How is it not?
