@DisguisedRory4 жыл бұрын
@@alexysese1437 As a kid I used to ride mongo all the time. With 23 i picked up a skateboard again (25 now) and tried to relearn pushing to not use mongo anymore but regular. I took my Board to work everyday, tried to ride as often as possible and i must have looked like the biggest beginner ever, but eventually i got over the uncomfortable part. Now mongo still feels more "safe" but regular doesnt feel wrong anymore. It feels super wrong at the start and it will take its time, but you will get used to it and see what positive aspects it gives to ride regular.

Shed your fear. One of the main things about learning something new is to not worry how you look. The same people that will give you too little credit at the beginning will give you too much credit after you figure things out. Both messages only messes up your game, so it's best not to care and focus on your craft. People will always misappropriate your credit, progress doesn't lie, focus on your results instead of how you look.

Tip: if you don’t want to break bones or sprain your ankles, GO FAST. Learn all your tricks going fast. This requires you to learn how to fall correctly (rolling back up to being on your feet), but in the long run, your weight won’t be coming straight down but always forward. This means less gravity pulling on your ankles and knees and shins toward the center of the earth and more force pulling you diagonal and therefore into a slide or roll when you fall (fail). You will end up with more road rash but that’s better than being out for four months as your muscles waste away in a cast. Tip #2: if you do end up in a cast, take a supplement called Glutamine EVERY DAY. It limits muscle wasting (why your arm gets skinny in a cast) and maintains the strength of unused muscles (you’ll keep your muscle memory AND your muscles after your cast is removed!). Tip #3: Go fast. Get some good bearings (Bones Swiss are always a favorite staple). Go fast. Shred around and learn how to get the most out of your pushes. Go fast. It’s more fun and you feel all burly with the wind in your face roaring in your ears. Go fast. A skateboard is a toy. Never forget that. It’s meant to be a fun thing to play with. Soooooooooooooooooo GO FAST!

When I was 17, after skating for over 4 years, the "mall grab" saved my legs when a car going through traffic lights hit me. The board slapped along my entire leg and protected me (and I flipped over the car). Had I been carrying the board like you suggest, my legs would have been broken and I could have been dragged under the car and died. The "mall grab", since 1974, has been the only sensible way to carry your board. The car was totally screwed by my wheels and trucks, my board was fine and I skated away after the police came for the driver. GO MALL GRAB!

I skated mongo for many years. Learning to push regular was one of the best things I ever did for my skating, once you learn to push regular you'll wonder on what planet you could've ever thought mongo felt better or more "natural". By all means skate however the hell you want, skateboarding shouldn't have hard & fast rules, but as a former mongo skater I genuinely believe pushing regular is straight up objectively better in every way, and I could not recommend breaking that habit highly enough.

I agree with everything except I never understood the problem with holding your board by the truck. If you hold it by the nose or the side, your fingertips get chewed up by the griptape. Not to mention every hipster walking around a college campus holds their Pennyboard/ longboard by the side. I say carry the board however you want :) or better yet, just ride it!

You'll find most guys who have been skating for any length of time to be helpful and willing to offer advice as long as you are receptive to hearing it. Skateboarding really comes down to 3 things regardless of your level of experience. Perseverance, repetition and eventually progression. What I would say to beginners is please have some situational awareness while at the park. Watch what lines other skaters are doing and be aware of which obstacles they are using so you don't accidentally cut them off or "snake" them as it's referred to.

24 years ago I had poop foot. Thanks to my fellow skate brethren I was able overcome this disease. this was an affliction that had hurt many people and had to be addressed. After an intervention and shown the ill of my crap foot i took action to better myself and those around me. Being goofy i duct taped my right shoe to the front of an old deck, set her up and began the healing process. Within days I felt totally different. No lunging off balance, awkward stares from concerned citizens(except for the ones who realized this psycho taped his shoe to his board). And it worked quick. After about a week I removed the tape and my muscle memory had gotten used to proper pushing with my back foot and was no longer afflicted with stank leg. If you know of others that need saved from this mongoism consider the method that saved me 24 years ago. If they are not willing to acknowledge their wrongdoings then drastic measures may be neccesary. At college, for example, do not be afraid to yell as loudly as possible "Get your smelly arse stank leg outta here, sh#t foot." Or bust a smooth back tail to show that skateboarding can look good instead of looking like lunging homosexuals who credit carded each other for fun. One thing I can say about my prior mongoism that was helpful later on in skating switch stance I push with my back foot. So at no time do I hurt myself or others with some smelly arse poop leg. I mean seriously I love Kalis but after a dope bs noseblunt to fakie the last thing I wanna see before the switch crooks is pushing mongo. Be respectful of others and say no to sh#t foot.

sub to pewds it could happen but don’t get discouraged just keep showing up If it’s a real hassle hit it in the morning till you get the confidence and skill you feel you need to hit it at prime time IMO though morning is prime time no ones there so you won’t get in anyone’s way and you can try new things like vert without feeling dumb for falling

First rule of life if you want to be a REAL skateboarder...don't a give a f about what anybody thinks. Do what you want at all times and give the finger to anyone who has a problem. I ride a 10" board, mongo, with mismatched trucks and wheels, wearing pink checkerboard vans and a thrasher shirt hanging out of my back pocket...and it's cool to my old ass, that's all I care about.

This was actually super helpful. I started longboarding this year and I sucked at it for a couple months. My roommate showed me to pivot straight when pushing and to learn how to balance on my front foot. I tried it for a day or so and when it clicked it completely changed my confidence towards boarding. I've been riding every day and want to eventually order a custom skateboard and a cruiser so I can have one of each!

Okay listen, skateboarders will be MORE then happy to help you with your progression in skateboarding. Just go out and have fun don’t worry about anything. Just bring some water to the sesh. And don’t sit on anything that is meant to be skated on. Another thing don’ get caught up worrying about how you look skateboarding, other people are too worried focusing on landing their own tricks to worry about you.
