How to PUSH Like A Pro Skater (and NOT Look Awkward!)

Learning how to push / how to kick off in is one of the first things you should do in skateboarding as a beginner, and as fundamental of a maneuver as it is, most people aren't ever able to master the push.
So today, we're diving deep on the topic of pushing and showing you how to go from looking awkward and unbalanced to pushing fast, powerfully, and with style.

[@isabellef1663]

thanks for the video! quick question - is there a "proper" way to place your foot on the ground when kicking off? as in, full foot, half foot, just the toe? i'm experiencing some pain in the heel of my pushing foot, and while part of it is probably overuse, i want to make sure i'm practicing correct form so i can avoid the injury in the future. thanks again!

[@NeverStopImprovingSB]

Anybody else know the answer to this? I'm personally not sure.

[@dennisandersson3691]

Well, i cant speak for everybody but its more common to just use the toes rather then the whole foot when pushing off.(front side of the foot, not just the toes) And even in speed, i use the front part of the foot. If you start hurting in the heel, you simply are to "heavy" on the foot. Your weight should be on the board, and not the pushing leg/foot. Hope it helps!

[@periodicbeast9994]

Put your heel down first and then use the ball of your foot to push is what I'd recommend

[@GHOST0ID]

Use ur heel! Using your toes will make you lean too far forward

[@curb_slayer]

I always push off my toes/balls of my feet

that balancing exercise is the best.

[@plaguedoctor4411]

YOU DONT SPEAK FOR ME! but yeah these vids help alot.

[@ryanlee9150]

For the beginners out there who feel like balancing on one foot is suicide, if your fear (and very possible reality) is slipping back or forwards, try balancing with your knee more bent than normal with your body closer to the ground! This will keep you closer to the floor with more balance control and your foot can get to the ground quicker to catch yourself if you lose balance, and if you do fall you won't fall so hard since there's less falling distance. EDIT: Damn I actually dropped a 500 like comment haha so here's a bonus tip If you ever feel uncomfortable or about to fall in general just crouch to lower your center gravity with your legs wide apart - for the same reasons above as well, I seriously feel after all these years of skating that simply being closer to the ground means more stabililty more control and confidence! I feel that's why there are those tiny 7year old japanese skaters who go flying meters into the air with no fear at all!!! When you get it, the one foot balancing while riding feels amazing like as if you're floating!!!

This is honestly the best total beginner pushing tutorial I’ve seen - I’ve realised I really just need to get my one leg balance a bit more solid and it’ll make such a difference, but already I feel like I’m starting to get it a little more. I don’t find it so bad getting into riding position - it’s just the push and committing to the front foot with almost all my weight, and using my back leg like a paddle close to the edge of the board. Cheers!

I am almost 50 and just starting again after another 12 year break. ( my total active years skating since '84 is only 7) It's great to have videos like yours so readily available. I wish I had a good teacher like you back then, showing me what I had been doing wrong. Seriously, little tips like "practice standing with your foot facing forward" are a game changer for me.

[@NeverStopImprovingSB]

You're too kind, Derek! I'm really stoked to hear you're back on your board though, I guess it is true, once you become a skater, you never stop loving skateboarding 🛹 even after a 12 year break 🤯

[@derekarmstrong1408]

@@NeverStopImprovingSB So true! I stopped in 89 when I went to college where there were no ramps because I just didn't "get" street skating. Then I started again when I moved to Venice, CA, in 2005 totally oblivious to what "Dogtown" meant. Broke my ankle in a huge bowl in 2009... took the Covid lockdown for me to have the freedom to get hurt again. Have been enjoying your mini ramp tutorials a lot, and am starting to get the feel for basic street tricks.

@Rosabel Tan I love skating, even if I will never be good enough to do more than roll around a park doing grinds and rock-and-roll type tricks. The main thing about my comment is that after years of pushing with my foot on the board at a 45° angle, I have seriously given myself arthritis in that knee. Kinda sucks! But I have a 2 year old, and I still planning on pushing through the pain so I can teach him to skate soon.

[@set65]

I practiced standing on the city bus, that's how I got way better at transition from pushing to on the board, because where else can you stand in a moving vehicle and the bus is the most comparable to a skateboard

Yeeeah bro! Thank you! I've been doing these exercises at home the past week and you can really start to 'feel the burn' in your ankle after about 45 seconds on one foot. I'm loving it!

[@Samuraijessie]

another great step to add to the one foot practice is to work on bending the front knee and lowering your weight while on the board. This is not going to just strengthen those muscles but also help balance for those big fast pushes and get your comfortable with the motion you need for foot breaking.

I can confirm that making sure to kick with the front of your foot and not keeping it flat helps a ton. I used to push with my foot flat because I wasn't confident in my balance, but once I committed to using just the ball of my foot it gave me so much more power. It's the same reason why people don't run flat footed.

He’s 100% right about making skating your means of transportation. I bought a longboard at the beginning of the year to get around my college campus. I use it to get everywhere i need to go. Before this year, i never owned any kind of board, yet ive picked up cruising on my board very quickly.

[@PeanutButtr]

lol I can't agree with that last point enough. It took me a month or two of riding in a secluded parking lot just to become sorta okay with basic riding, pushing, and some throwdowns. Then in the past two weeks or so I've just started skating to classes, the dining hall, etc. not even taking fastest route or anything, just sorta winding my way randomly around campus, sometimes doing a lap around a building or something. Seen such hugge improvements, now I'm far more comfortable on rough and uneven ground, getting some good speed down hill, and winding past anyone else walking around me. Your videos are a huge help!

Justin, Thank you so much. On my way home from work, I've been stopping by basketball and tennis courts to practice pushing. I feel as though my progression is not there. You pointing out practicing on one foot will help tremendously, as that's certainly a part of where I'm not comfortable. And they say a golf swing is complicated ... Future beginner idea .... Another aspect of pushing, is what to do when you're facing the end of the pavement and you have to turn, or make those little adjustments. Similarly for example from the court to the parking lot I don't want to look like a poser, so I also skate back to my car. But end up stopping and adjusting the board a lot. I'd rather look stupid than a poser 🛹😜

There is no such thing as 'right' and 'wrong' in skateboarding, but lots of people prefer the other way. Don't feel bad though if you can't do it, just make sure you're having fun!

[@JohnSmith-ww3pu]

Its going to make doing tricks harder if you dont switch to push with back foot

[@Glitchmelon]

If you can't push normally, just force yourself into it, you'll regret pushing mongo when you try to learn tricks

[@i-never-look-at-replies-lol]

don't worry dude, i started out mongo and corrected it pretty easily. at first you think pushing with your front foot sets you up better for tricks because you can put your foot back on where you want, but pushing with the back foot is more stable and you want your front foot in position locked in pretty early. your foot is in a much more stable position when pushing off the back.

[@Anne_Onymous]

When I first stepped on a board, my first intuition was to push mongo as well. After a few weeks, I tried learning the standard way and was having trouble. Then I switched from riding regular to goofy and it instantly felt easier. I now ride goofy and push properly without effort. So to anyone just starting with this issue, definitely double check that you picked the right stance for yourself.
