Hey man, so I'm 47 and bought my 1st longboard 2 weeks ago. In 2 days I'm doing a 10 hour cruise for charity. I think I'll most likely spend most of my time on my arse but that's ok. I just wanted to say that your beginner tutorials have helped massively. Thanks bro.

For the stance...I like the people to play "Heaven and Hell' do you know the game? So the leg you start to jump with is the one that stays on the board and the other one is your pushing leg. Aaannddd if you are regular on the snowboard, you will be goofey on the skateboard.

I hope you still read comments, especially to videos this old. I'm learning how to ride right now and your video was a lot of help, bit what REALLY spoke to me was the spirit connection, board-feeling part. It just took me back to when I was a teen, my dad was teaching me to drive a manual-transmission car, and I was having a really hard time understanding how to get the car moving, and everyone had their own dumb advice for how to do it and it didn't work. Then my dad just sat down with me in the car, and he said "Just feel the car. Feel when it's starting to stall out, just sit down, close your eyes and listen to it" and we sat quietly and felt the car and it's hard to explain but that's absolutely a real deal, dude. Idk, it's like 3 am but that spoke to me and took me back to a simpler time. Thanks for the video

I used to street/vert skate as a kid. But hadn't skated for about 11-12 years. I'm nearly 28 now, and certainly not 16 anymore. But in getting a new job that I can walk to in a half hour, I decided to start skating again. I just got a new long board, since I wanted something better than my street board. Got a 37" Madrid longboard(this snowboard shape) and I love it. I picked out all the parts and built it myself. I'm not quite used to the length of it, but overall, love it. I had always wanted a longboard as a kid, but they were too expensive lol. I'm too old now to be taking any real spills though, so wasn't looking to get into street skating again.

@lifesgoodbutilikecrying52314 жыл бұрын
Hey a bit late but anyone interested, personally I try to pay attention to my stance, weight, and distribution of that through the board. It helps to stay in one place sometimes and stand on the board in skating stance and feel the way the board moves on its own. I practice this where I can skate and not be interrupted like on a empty basketball court or parking lot.

Malissa Richmond I felt the same way, my problem was that I wasn’t bending my knees, wasn’t putting weight on my front foot, and using my WHOLE foot to push. I would say put your front foot on, slight bend your knees and when you push pretty much just tap the ground with your toes as to pushing with your whole foot. It helped my improve my pushing and find my balance.
