Tonight was the first time I ever tried to skateboard. I’ve been embarrassed to learn from someone my whole life I never bought one or tried, but I finally bought one yesterday and had time after work today, so I pulled this video up and waited until it was like 11pm so I could fuck up in my yard without anyone seeing. This is literally the ONLY tutorial that made even a lick of sense to me. Thank you so so much, my man. (I can balance pretty well and I can roll about 5 feet!! And I didn’t fall once!!)

[@jansveen]

Great tutorial. I went out with my 8 year old son with a skateboard and rollerblades we found for free at a recycling hall. Just 1 hour later, we had such fun like never before. I don't know what happend. I just stepped on the board, and off I went. Such a feeling of freedom. I'm 54 years old, and wanted to start skateboarding at 10 in norway. At that time, it was forbidden, and police actually took the skateboard. Now, som 40 years later, i finally got the wheels under my feet. And together with my son. Best gift I had for a long time. Thanks' for the tutorial! Made me realise I've done pretty much everything in an ok way.

[@renidere]

So just stand there without moving, with one leg on the board. Just stand there. Im a beginner who had a similar problem of it being kinda intimidating to even just cruise so that’s what I did lmao then once I got comfortable I would gently pump so I wouldn’t have too much speed and then try to balance on the one leg as long as I could. Although it’s been a week so you might not have this problem anymore but good luck! Hope you’re enjoying skating

[@lilia3944]

3:14 Keeping your center of gravity in the middle often means leaning slightly forward/toward the front of the board. It often feels like you're in the middle when you're leaning slighly back, which will make the board lose momentum and makes it easier to fall onto your back which isn't much fun.

[@GalacticBored]

Holy shit, you have NO idea how helpful this was, thank you so muchbb❤❤❤

[@chrisgilling543]

45 years old and just started skateboarding, one thing I've already learned about rolling over cracks in the road, is don't roll over them straight/head on with both front wheels inpacting the crack at the same time, instead try to approach the crack with the board at a slight angle, this helps smooth it out and there's less risk of the front wheels suddenly coming to an abrupt stop on the crack and throwing you off. Hope this little tip helps other beginners like me 👍

[@fluffy-fluffy5996]

Cool, another one in their 40s starting just now! Guess my priority is finding my glasses or contacts: I will not see even the openings and ridges at Grand Canyon otherwise lol

It’s never too late to start and if you want to get better never give up. Also never let anyone deter you from what you wanna do.

Remember everyone learns at a different pace don’t be discouraged if you don’t make progress as quickly as you want just keep working on it and you’ll accomplish whatever you set out to do. You will likely fall at some point so there’s absolutely no shame in wearing pads or a helmet. Have fun. Love y’all.

I used to be able to skateboard effectively and I never knew about any if this, able to Ollie and do manuals. Stopped after 7th grade and am now starting after highschool. I have almost no balance now and can't Ollie, this blows.

Gotta love how I'm learning this just because of Sk8. That aside, great video. The instructions were pretty clear and understandable for me. Can't wait to start practicing.

[@kisstoffee]

[@jkay008]

yeahh i put my weight on my back foot... thats why i cant keep momentum.. thanks

[@naamashamariz9602]

My skateboard doesn't move. I mean, when I'm on it and it starts to move it's always turns to the left. Someone know why? Pls help me lmao

[@SkatingwithAaron]

What kind of skateboard do you have? Guessing the bearings might not be very good. As for the lean, every skater has this issue over time is their board. The bushings in the trucks over time will lean in the direction a rider most leans toward. If the bushings are super soft this will happen quicker. Hope this helps!

Loosen up your trucks

[@Prxncessvaleria]

sorry for the noob question but doesn’t dragging your feet destroy your shoes? or are skate shoes different? (Genuinely asking. Ty 🖤) learning at 31. 😊
