I just started skateboarding. The only thing I’ve been taught is bend ur knees and keep ur weight on ur front foot (longboard). Now it’s got me hooked. I tried going down a Venice beach ramp and fucked my knees all the way up, but I got it! And I can’t wait to go back with knee pads! 😅but it’s fun asfk and these videos r helpful

That’s awesome the videos are helping you out and great job about getting back on your skateboard and being hyped to practice more!! That’s what’s it’s all about !! Just learning the fundamentals and everything from there is so much fun. And a lot of people like to give advice and it’s usually the same thing. But if the person is a skateboard instructor they probably have some good advice. And pads definitely help build your confidence when you’re leaning. And that stinks you messed your knees up but so glad you went back and got the roll in on the flatbank! That’s so awesome!! That’s what it’s Al about ! Getting back on your skateboard after you get thrown off it ! 💪🛹 ! And rolling down a flatbank is all about getting enough speed with your pushing and getting your front foot to pivot so you can get into riding stance and then committing to transferring your weight forward to your front foot when the front wheels go down the down part of the flatbank. And it’s always good to learn how to bail off the board and run down the ramp if you loose your balance when you’re going down. And that is so cool you live near Venice because I love that place ! i got to go there once and it’s amazing! I am sure there are tons of great skaters there ! So just focus on what you’re doing with the basics and you’ll be great! And I don’t know if you saw this tutorial about going down flatbanks for beginners so here it is 👉kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIasZJWYhraXfbcsi=l3pW0z20YRhTp31F

@@SkateTutorsLLC thanks for responding! So turns out it was a half pipe 😅 I still got it though! But maybe I should have started on the flat bank 😂😂😂 thanks for more great advice. When I subconsciously angled my shoulder downward (the physical indicator that I’m committing) it made the ride so much smoother and of course I didn’t fall off so it made it hurt less. Committing=less pain, HEARD

@@katherinenewman960 Oh it was a halfpipe. But yeah it is all about figuring out the transition of a ramp or quaterpipe or bowl before you go for a drop in. But that is all good! Some times you just want to go for it. But glad to hear you are getting it down. And I am always happy to help, I apprecaite the skate insight of what problems you are dealing with and I am glad to be a help. But skateboarding is definitely mental and all about getting yourself in the right mindset before you get our on the skatepark. But keep up the practice and you will be in great skateboard shape before you know it. If you are not already there. I am about to go stretch and practice some flip tricks. Comment again soon and I will talk to you then ! 🤙 🛹
