PRO TIPS & Exercises for PUSHING a skateboard

[@FirinMahLazer1]

I'm 32 and picked up a board so I could skate with my son. Haven't been on a board since I was a teen and I'm glad to see all these people around my age commenting they're picking it up too.

I’m in a similar boat. Haven’t boarded since I was 12 and have been chronically ill for a couple years. Been getting better this year and have been trying to pick up some old hobbies again.

[@armaganyucelsahin6879]

As a-month-old beginner, I generally have struggle with my positioning and pushings. I had to give a little break because of bad weather conditions, so the struggle may be little more now. Today, I am to hit the spot and this is going to be my first practice. Thank you a lot. This is the best skateboarding tutorial channel I’ve found so far. Greetings from Turkey.

[@jjrdias]

Among the lots of videos I watched here about learning how to push, this channel was the only one that mentioned how important the positioning of your head is. And that's why this is, by far, the best channel with the most detailed videos for beginners. No cap, it's really THAT good and that detailed. I would also add to REALLY figure out if you're regular or goofy. I had a really hard time re-learning how to push after a 30 year hiatus, mostly because I tried to skate regular and push with my right foot. I couldn't get confortable on the board, had a couple of hard falls, and was actually considering just giving it up, again. I decided to try the goofy stance, and started practicing at home, just getting on and off the board. I found out I felt MUCH more confortable, and that I could keep my balance on one leg much more easily, which is essential for pushing. Cheers

Nice, I am 47 as well and and just recently started. I was doing surfing the last few years and since in my country there not many waves, I bought a surfskate for practising and keeping active, but I am totally hooked with skating now. The only thing that somewhat holds me, apart from the lack of time, is that I worry much about the knees and the impact it might have on them such an activity, since I feel them sore after each session.

Good stuff. I learned to push mongo when I skated as a kid. Since I started skating again after an extraordinarily long break, mongo came back to me quickly and feels intuitive. But pushing "normally" is something I want to work on. It feels weird and awkward so far, and I'm almost half braking, half pushing with each kick, which means I'm moving at a snail's pace that way :) These videos help by focusing on the little details of form and balance.

Keeping my head and weight over my front foot while pushing and the small hop to transition my feet into riding position were things I wasn't doing. As such my balance was a mess and I was having trouble just riding on flat ground without bailing every 10-15 pushes. They are small things, but they have a HUGE impact on overall balance, especially for a beginner like me. You did an amazing job over breaking down the mechanics to highlight these problems, this video helped me immensely, thank you. Keep up the good work. +1 subscriber.

[@rodneycarter8901]

That is awsome. My mate took me out with his long board today got myself a cruiser board deffently some stuff hear to practice cos I was having a lot of fun but my pushes are horrid. Thank you for the tips now it's practice time.

[@jaymianderson9665]

Head position and arm momentum

[@flnn5450]

The hop and stand tip was really helpful. l always have issues quickly aligning my front foot into ride stance.

[@steveco.1234]

It definitely helps to be on really smooth concrete. Otherwise you just wear yourself out pushing, and pushing, and so on...

[@SkateparkLessons]

Back foot on the tail, in case you need to lift your front wheels or kickturn. I’m glad you like the videos, thank you. I really appreciate your kindness and support.

Does the front foot have to be parallel with the board?. I've seen some pros have their front foot diagonal when pushing. 🤔🙆💁😅🙏💌

[@SkateparkLessons]

When you’re pro you can push however you want, this lesson builds the good habit for pivoting front foot when you push. Moreover, nobody pushes front foot diagonally when going really fast. 🙌🏽🛹🙌🏽

[@JasmineCaroline]

Hi there :) is there a way to avoid wearing down the bottom of the shoe of your front foot where the pivot spot is? All my shoes end up with holes in this spot. Or does it depend on what type of shoe or grip that you have? I wear Vans. Thanks so much 🧡

[@SkateparkLessons]

The only thing I can recommend is to buy shoes made with better quality. Some companies and shoe models seem to wear down faster than others. 💙🛹👟🛹💙

Liking the hat under the helmet look. Got to keep that face safe from the sun. Sunscreen can only do so much.

[@mohiudeenrasul9341]

Can we skareboard on pavings

[@torarnv]

Very helpful video!! One question about the hop into riding stance, and bailing by running forward: If my front foot is ~90 degrees to the riding stance, and I hit a rock, crack, etc, and the board stops suddenly, and I attempt to bail by running forward, my front foot will be stuck on the grip tape with weight on it as I twist my upper body to try to run off with my back foot along the path of the board. How do I avoid causing a twist/sprain in that moment? I was rolling today, taking it easy because of my sprained ankle, and this exact thing happened due to a small rock. Do you try to anticipate these moments and keep the weight on your back foot so that the front foot has time to pivot before running off with the back foot? Or is it okey to ride with the front foot at a 45 degree angle, at least for now while my ankle heals, to avoid that big of a twist when you do have to bail? Thanks again for all your awesome videos!!

[@SkateparkLessons]

Ride however feels best for you but try to stay close to the recommendations I give in the video. 💙🛹💙

[@lulubeloo]

I've been skating for 5-6 months and all this time I wasn't able to do more than one-push. Everytime I tried to go for the 2nd consecutive push, I would immediately lose balance and had to place the "paddling" foot back on the board to regain balance, so frustrating.

[@SkateparkLessons]

She had the same issue in the beginning but this video addresses those issues and how to improve for the future! Use this channel to help learn proper techniques and also how to bail to stay safe! Thanks for your support and wishing you the best times on your skateboard 🛹💙🛹

i like the hat helmet does this work on every hat? hotter prob but good vibe

[@АлександрКорнеев-ф9э]

очень полезный урок. Почему то до меня никто его через яндекс браузер не переводил

[@DiamondFist320]

What if you have flat duck feet and your your feet don't naturally point forward? Like the arch of my foot points forward so my foot naturally doesn't sit center cause my toes are out towards left and my heels is literally towards right ?

[@SkateparkLessons]

I’d see a podiatrist asap

[@DiamondFist320]

@SkateparkLessons nah I can move fine I'm just talking about natural foot placement. c'mon guy
