Skate Faster!

[@richard_rico_norris]

Skating faster is the way. Mid-90s, I was a slow rider who could do all the flip tricks and grinds and slides. It wasn't until I was hanging out with a sponsored crew from a local shop that they started talking to me about going faster. It was scary at first but, after about a month or two, I found that I was landing far more tricks, grinding and sliding far longer, and was just far more consistent in my riding once I got over the fear. As long as you know how to fall properly, there's no real difference between falling fast and falling slow. I got so much better. And, before I knew it, I was sponsored by that same shop that the guys who were mentoring me were sponsored by. TLDR; Go faster. It's better.

[@SteveWright-bx2ub]

All about the second base slide.

[@LotkaVolterra]

"there's no real difference between falling fast and falling slow" is some sage advice

[@richard_rico_norris]

@@LotkaVolterra Yeah. I understand that, at a certain speed, it is more dangerous but, I've seen people fall incorrectly trying to slowly ollie a 3 stair and break their wrist. I've also seen experienced riders going fast af and just tuck and roll when they hit the ground and they get up laughing. I guess the real difference between falling fast and falling slow is how good and comfortable you are with falling down.

[@Pitbullmgs420]

Definitely learn how to fall!!! Roll don't land . Especially straight down to stop full fall on the wrists . Got a major sprain rn lol 🤣

The curb cut sidewalk obstacle is genius! Every skate park in the world should have it!

[@Papadopolous94]

Haha the guy says he’s gonna skate fast today and then starts the session with a smith stall on the corner of a rail, relatable

[@Endofthebeginning369]

Love your shit dude! I friggin love your style and commentary, my man. Thanks for all the fantazmo content!

Eyebrow man vs Dr Teeth... There is nothing better than this for Christmas. 🙏

[@imjessegarrron]

Dan skating faster looks 100 x better. Keep it up!

[@angusmorrison1557]

Nice Frazier shirt. Skating with that guy as a kid was mind blowing. I am really liking the raw session format too. Thank you Dan

[@SongJLikes]

The Powell team has the best balance of laid-back attitude and serious skating …yeah, they are all great skaters, but they are good, real people too Needless to say, they are enjoyable to watch overtake a park 16:44

[@BlueserStream]

dan: "im going to go faster".... also dan: 1:37 (this is a joke lmao love you dan)

[@GodlikePlaylist]

i was thinking the very same, i rolf when i saw his first trick after he took all the intro saying how ''faster'' he wanted to skate. LOL

[@williamboshi1855]

that fall dancing at 11:47 is so funny lol, it's like a meme giff

[@SoundingSix]

06:26 nevermind the skating, that tree looks majestic af!

Yeah that tree stood right out Didn't expect anyone else to notice

I was just at this little park last weekend for the first time haha. Small world.

[@seanbowers6470]

Where is it located ?

[@TheDerek860]

6:20 I find it hilarious when people in California say it’s “a little chilli”

[@Spacebardenied]

Awesome video idea. Progression is always appreciated. The internet also loves when people overcome challenges.

[@dylanpittenger967]

damn, front tails are like my favorite trick to do at full capacity. something about digging the tail thru.. and those ones you stick early and then just shoooot your board into the fence.. hahaha love keck park!

[@AlexNiedt]

I'm with Dan on front tails. Scary going fast for me. Would rather back tail going fast 😄

[@PressureCracksToHealthySnacks]

I had the hardest time learning boardslides because I was going to slow! Super scary but way easier to boardslide going faster

[@LevelUpDaily434]

Same

[@artemcultura6191]

Love watching you goes flow around

[@skate318]

"This video's gonna be me skatin faster." *Starts video with skatin the slowest we've ever seen..

[@fire_n_ice1984]

When I was learning how to hit rails, I was told to go faster than you think you need and then some. Scarier but easier to stay balanced, locked in and in control. That's if everything goes right up to the point, locking in.

[@johnrohrbaugh7217]

He back. Hope you had a great Christmas, Dan!

[@johnthomas2877]

To avoid having a stray skateboard shoot into my bicycle spokes a possibly bending the wheel I usually park it upside down. It also makes it less quick for a thief to push or ride it away.

[@loganryansmith]

If Ray Ray wants back on Powell, he can come back, right?

[@jjconnect7941]

This is so sick you actually have a sick Ass style when you skate fast

[@norman1907]

Anybody else notice the other guys wave their arms when they're skating with Dan, because Dan is cool

[@E_L1000]

It’s finally happening! Dan is getting some speed!

[@edwardp5748]

tell corie (is that his name? whatevs, the only dude on a bike eh?) he needs to pump up those tires! he is already hurt enough without crashing his bike as well 😛

[@FullMetalTeabag]

That park looks fun

[@E_L1000]

Dan: On the subject of speed. Can you explain why you sometimes take really quick and short pushes with no weight to them?

[@gallowsend]

u owned that dan

[@AdioShu]

Skate as fast as John Cardiel!

[@Iron_spine]

Dan's low-key manuel lord

[@seanbowers6470]

What is the name of this skatepark and where is it located?

[@LotkaVolterra]

There's something safer about skating fast. I don't know if it's a physics thing or just that you're more alert at high speeds, but all of my worst injuries have come from dorking around at slow speed.

[@EremEdition]

There's a mental barrier that tries to tell you "Slow is Safe".. In my experience, generally speaking, I think "the more speed, the better". I go fast enough so when I pop, ill go into a slomo follow through in my head. This has mostly worked in my favor but definitely dusted me a handful of times. If you are nervous and hucking it, get a helmet for real

[@johnthomas2877]

Wide manual pads and ledges are alot safer than narrow ledges and boxes.

[@drygulch1000]

I have a trick request, you've probably already done. A slappy crook going "straight" up the curb, into a nose manual and across.

[@FlattenedCrumbs]

Rays not on Powell anymore?

[@bonesdnb5474]

I like how yousaid Im gonna try to skate fast all day then started out trying to do a smith kickflip on the end of a rail going 3 mph

[@bonesdnb5474]

haha you mention that :))

[@thestinkyweasel6297]

Yo that clown hat is the biz

[@robertfaulkner7777]

I know you are struggling with energy. When you were diagnosed with lime disease, did they check you for alpha gal syndrome as well. I was recently diagnosed diagnosed with it and found i have reactions reactions to pork,beef, and venison. Been eating only chicken and fish for few months now and have so much more energy.

[@two2oneb326]

Does jeffwon ride slow or just not pop? Or both

[@humbug1820]

is there never snow in california?

[@AlexNiedt]

Depends on where you are in California, but it's extremely rare around LA. Gotta go up into the mountains

[@Streetsk8boards]

[@Desertguy-dg1xi]

They are building a skate park in our town California City they say it'll be done by spring will you please Check it out when it's done I'd love your take on it

Skating fast isn’t worth it. You gonna get hurt and jeprodize your health right now. At least take way less runs. ITS NOT WORTH IT.

[@bullworthcookies9022]

Nahh I’ve sustained all my injuries from getting stuck and moving too slow. When you have momentum you absorb impact and more room for error.

[@bullworthcookies9022]

Any feature I grinded or slid always worked better faster..

[@poizonfreak9967]

@@bullworthcookies9022 well he is falling more and not landing as much. Remember he is all fucked up right now. He may not be able to skate for 5-7 days after going this hard.

[@poizonfreak9967]

@@bullworthcookies9022 I’ve been dealing with the same shit for 15 years now. It changes you. That’s why he talks about it so much. He has to figure how much he can push and it will take a while. Also very depressing not being able to do what you used to at a snap of a finger. Sucks. I just want him to take it easy and learn his limitations the healthiest way.

[@vorpalblades]

I've definitely slammed more often at low speeds. Fast is the way.
