I got 50-50 on the same day as discovering such a talented young skater.

As long as you can command your legs/body to move how you want them to, you can learn something. It's a lot of trial and error. Among one of the trials or one of the errors, you won't land it. But you'll experience a *click* in your mind. In that moment, whether you land on it upside down or just land away from the board, you'll get it. First treflip back in 2007 for me, I was skating with a good friend of mine around town, it was pretty late around 2AM. We were both feeling good and I'd decided to try a treflip even though I hadn't landed one before. I landed with the board upside down, one foot on and the other foot near it. I immediately felt that *click* sensation. I then looked at my friend and said "Dude, I just learned treflips". Next try I landed but slipped out, the try after I rolled away. It's an incredible feeling when those pathways unlock in your mind and you can literally FEEL the exact moment you learn something. Don't beat yourself up. Trial and error. You're likely going to suck ass at whatever you're trying at first, that's how it's supposed to be.

Baby Steps: Start with drawing simple things and then move on to complex art. Analyze: Study other artists and see what might be lacking in your art. Dedication: Practice makes perfect, keep at it. Visualize: Imagine the thought process of other artists and how they approach things. Great advice Jonny!

But one day I tried with a bigspin and it just worked, and even today I find this trick easier ! What I'm trying to say is sometimes, when you really feel like you can do a trick, you shouldn't bother yourself with baby steps. By the way great video as usual !

@HyenaFox6 жыл бұрын
The most important tip to learning tricks is just to not give up, and I know that sounds really cheesy, but just hear me out. With skateboarding, if learning tricks is what you want to do, all it takes is time and dedication. No matter how impossible a goal seems, if you just keep doing it, it will eventually happen. Even if it doesn't feel like you are making progress, even if you know you aren't making progress, even if nothing different is happening, it will help. I remember when I started, I couldn't Ollie. I tried so hard for hours, and just couldn't get it. I turned to a couple other tricks, like the Strawberry Milkshake, Boneless, and No Comply 180, and the only one I got at first was the Boneless. I remember feeling so discouraged because nothing felt possible besides simply riding around, which wasn't what I wanted to do. But I kept at it, and eventually, I did an Ollie. It wasn't good. It was barely 2 inches off the ground, it was rocketed, and I fell off balance almost instantly afterwords, but I did it, and it felt so good. I kept trying, and for the next 2 weeks, it wasn't really getting any better than that. I was so excited to show people, and they all said "That's great, nice almost-ollie!". I knew I didn't really do it correctly. I went back to holding on to a fence and really focused on doing it perfectly. I brought my front foot up higher, I crouched down way lower, I jumped up higher, and they started to get better. I was getting 7 inches off the ground holding onto the fence. I tried it on flat, and I was actually able to replicate it. I was so happy with myself. I remember, after I learned the concepts and technique for ollieing, I went back and tried to learn the No Comply 180 and Strawberry Milkshake again, and completely had no idea how to do them. I tried for No Comply 180's switch, because I thought it would be a cool way to get back into my normal stance after landing switch or fakie. It was really terrible at first. The scoop barely worked for me, and when it did, I would kick it way too far in front of me. I eventually learned it but taking my front foot completely off the board, coming to a stop, doing the scoop, and then stepping back on. I kept doing this, but I also saw everyone else doing it really quickly and stylishly. Eventually I learned the real way, and then I got it quicker and more fluid. Then I focused on making it look good. And then I kind of wanted to learn it regular, and I tried to do it and (I'm goofy) it felt so foreign to have my left foot doing anything besides popping straight down. Everytime I tried to do a no Comply 180, I could not get the board to scoop. I put time into getting it down with my left foot, and eventually, I learned how to do it. It didn't feel as foreign now, and I could do the trick somewhat reliably now. It felt really good to be able to do them back and forth, from regular to switch to regular, down the street. I also learned Strawberry Milkshakes. It was funny because it felt so hard when I started, and I got them first try when I tried them again. My only problem was that I couldn't do them fluidly, so I worked on being able to flip the board over and do the movement without ever coming to a complete stop, which made it more fluid. Sorry for the text wall, but the moral is; seriously, if it's what you want to do, put time into it. It will get better it you try. It's a little bit like riding a bike. It's a skill that takes a really long time to develop, but once you develop it, everything else comes easy. Even with fliptricks, which I still can't really do, and I started skating 8 months ago. When I first tried a kickflip, the board wouldn't flip. I would just kick it in front of me. Eventually, learned the technique (For a kickflip, you want to kick towards the corner of the board. Instead of an Ollie, where you pull your foot up and then stop, you want to just go for a kick. You don't need to worry about pulling it upwards. When you first try this, your foot will probably feel like it has slipped off the top of the board, and the board won't flip very fast. To counter this, you need to kick slightly more downwards. Don't just stomp, but don't kick up like you would for an Ollie.), And now I can reliably flip the board. I have yet to land it, but I can at least get a full flip.
@ltamha3 жыл бұрын

Der shuvit hat mich ewig gebraucht ... bin ihn auch falsch angegangen, weil ich dachte "pffft, soll voll easy sein", hatte keinen Respekt davor, bin ständig Primo gelandet und hatte dann Angst zu comitten. Aber jetzt kommt er mir allmählich, bin mega happy damit =) Ollies sind schon ganz gut, auch witzig. Die meisten, die ich kenne strugglen eher mit dem Ollie und haben den shuvit längst raus. greetings from germany.

He is right, learning new tricks is more of breaking mental barriers than anything when you reach a plateau, frustration, stubbornness, self doubt, fear, you hit a point where your anger wont help you land, you're thinking perseverance, but sometimes you gotta take a break, dont stick to a trick for 3 hours in a day it might be a waste of time, learning to move on and having fun while coming back to it later really helps

i'm soo agree with you! i've been 1 year learning (at my 28's) and i've been thinking very much about what has worked for me (even if i'm only able to do ollies and shove its). anyways, those five points make the whoole sense. i mean "practice-practice-practice" is the main scheme, but i think you can focus your effort 100% better if you just stop and think about what you are doing and what you WANT to do inestead of repeating thoughtlessly hoping someday you will land it. motivation is vital, but i spent a whole year trying shove its without any progress except spinning the board until i made myself aware of the DETAILS: the balance of my body and what my arms and my shoulders were doing. but the final step was keeping in mind that i JUST WANTED THE BOARD TO ROTATE 180° UNDER MY FEET. in the end, i was like "ok analyze it but keep it simple and focus on the result". and that made me progress in a month what i didn't improve in a year!!

Thank you so much for your effort. This video helped me a lot. Especially the baby step point. Also my confidence is pretty bad. I literally tried to treflip for like 3hours and couldn’t figured it out. After watching this I decided to get my 360shuvits and varial Flips better. Now im landing some sketchy treflips already. But I’m not doing them for hours anymore and get mad after. I think my confidence will increase with the time. After 4months of skateboarding I learnt so much it’s crazy. Last month I began to record myself with my phone. The analyse and visualize part helps so much. Last week I woke up after a frustrating session the day before. My brain saved the movements over night and I landed a new trick like literally first try. I think the only thing you forgot to mention was don’t compare with better skaters too much. This was a huge problem for me(confidence). I give my best to learn a lot in this year. Thanks Mr.Giger!!! 🙏

Today, I will get my protection, because I am going on 39years old and I need to land the tricks again I used to but also: I must conquer my fear to skate in a bowl and do my first drop in. I don’t want to learn new tricks. I want to have fun and those tricks do it for me.

@njkf7 жыл бұрын
If you watch Rodney Mullen's TED talks, he talks about inventing tricks through a gradual iteration process where he only changes one variable at a time (be that foot position, body wheight distribution or something else) and at the same time he tries to keep all other variables consistent. This allows him to zoom in on specific problems during the learning process and fix them.. he also talks about kids doing crazy tricks but not inventing them - the thing about skatetricks is that he himself might not be the most skilled skater (I would beg to differ), but just KNOWING that a trick CAN BE DONE - like seeing a video of Rodney doing something new - is enough for youngsters to pick the trick up. It just goes to show that he might invent the tricks through this process, but he is not the only one capable of learning them over time. :)

Recap: 1. Have confidence. You CAN do it! 2. Take baby steps. Build up to the trick. 3. Analyze what you’re doing right and wrong. 4. Stay dedicated! 5. Visualize yourself landing it and how you would do that before you do it! 👍

One tip that helped me learn tricks is imagining myself landing it, and then attempting the trick This is only once Im close-ish to landing it at from there I usually can land it 1st try

This ties in with the confidence tip but I would add to relax. The more I relax while I skate the more tricks I land and the cleaner I land them.

Love this! Keep up the amazing work. Everything is possible as long as you have the right attitude, passion, comitment, the willingness and dedication to put in the work and effort. And just believe in yourself, because naturaltalent is and outdated and busted myth and excuse. It just takes away from the effort someone put in to perfect that skill, and it hinders people from pushing beond their personal barriers. So believe in yourself, commit and watch as you excell

Great video! I learned a lot from it :) I have been always failing with confidence, as I have been afraid that I will not be able to land a given trick :)

thank you a lot for your work. i started skating with 34y old, 4 years ago. and despite loving so much this instant energy i felt, i just coldnt have much progress. i remember had thought: may be girls cant do these things... and put it aside. with these youtube tutorial videos im starting to see my body being less dumb, and enjoying skating everyday like i used to do. i think girls have a bit more difficulties for biological reasons but it just dont have to make it stop me beeing happy with skateboard. i just want to say thank you.

The real key is to understand that in the end, it’s up to YOU to actually figure it out. You can hear all the trick tips in the world for how to actually execute and land a trick, but then you gotta totally THROW ALL THAT OUT in the end, and figure out how the trick works purely from your own trial and error and understanding what’s happening with your board

You can’t just watch a “how to xyz” video and no matter how well you absorb all the information, expect you’ll be able to just go out and do the trick

Waking up and being able to see your feet do a trick also helps ^^ cannot force this thought, it happens when it happens. Also Step 2 is tough ._. motivation is sometimes beyond any imagination, gotta know how to cool down :) Cannot agree more to "Analyze", sometimes I stand there for 10 minutes just thinking ... something is not right yet .. until I get an "aha moment" and land the trick. Visualising the trick, this is super slow progress but it also helps a lot! Sometimes some tricks that are not on-lock yet really need me to see the trick land before I can do it. Weird, but works. But not foreveryone, as there are different type of psychologies o it, some people need to phrase it down, some people can visualise, some people feel it beforehand - anyhow, praring your mind, besides your body, is essential.

I started skating 3 days ago. First day I learned to do Ollie and Kickflip pretty consistenty, the second day I did a lot of like pop-shovet and 180 and such. The third day got me really stoked cuz I never did a varial kickflip, but after around 30 attempts I landed Tre flip, and I landed it several times that day. I'm really into skateboarding now :)

I usually try getting passed the mental game telling myself it's not impossible and I can do the tricks despite getting frustrated easily. What I do is keep pushing and maybe a little music to get shit rolling, I found out that keeping your view parallel to the skateboard at all times instead of looking straight forward when you're riding helps. Idk if that made sense but I noticed the difference doing verial kickflip looking straight forward and looking at my feet and board, i think the same applies for when you're moving in motion tricks like 180s and 360s... I've been on and off skating and didnt actually learn real shit until I was a sophomore in high school lol I'm about to be 21 and havent skated too often after I hit 18 but I love getting down still especially on some ledge, many pads, and trying to get used to gaps again but ik I wont ever go as far as anything bigger than 6+ steps lmao. I love doing combo tricks and my buddy is gonna hook me up with a used deck so hopefully I'm not too rusty I actually broke my last deck earlier this year so let's see how far my feet have fallen! Hopefully not too much 😄😄😄 skate is love ❤

Jonny, you got a decent depth of field on your lens setup, there is no need in auto focus, which constantly messes with video.

I think visualising really helps. Imagine yourself doing the cleanest kickflip, with 100% confidence like its easy and convince yourself you've landed it before you even pop your board. I still don't have kickflips down but I'm getting there.
