The Number One Secret to Rock-to-Fakie

[@KeithSkates]

Pretty good instructions. Just one tip for people learning it the first time though, is to start with not going over the coping, and just lift your front wheels a little bit before you start rolling backwards. That will get you used to the motion of lifting over the coping without the risk of actually hanging up.

[@viracocha03]

Thanks.

[@merry7244]

Thank you🙏

hung up back in 92, fell to flat arm broke. ptsd for years on rock fakie. got over it at 40 years.

[@virrrginias]

Same! how did you???

[@virrrginias]

Like how do you treat PTSD from a trick?

[@lazerblastoid]

it was an old friend who believed in me just kept telling me i can. pretty much it.

[@nbn22385]

Hey Dale, I’m interested in seeing how to properly do a ride-on grind with different kinds of lock-ins (toe/heel/cross).

[@lamBETTERthanY0U]

The thumbnail says how to not hang up but you were basically showing how to hang up until the end

[@aliaidoudi6246]

very happy to see how you enjoy to explain us this trick. THANK YOU ! very helpfull ! (I m close to reach this point)

00:34 😂 most important part of the lesson 💨

[@dutchmcfadyen5867]

Omfg 😅

[@legendarycuber9205]

a sort of zoomed in slow-mo can be really helpful just in general for tutorials, and you can like pause it point at something youre tying to explain. keep the tutorials coming though, love them

[@mvarnzo5709]

Good vid guys. I actually taped a small dowel, about the width of a pencil, to the ramp just down from the coping, to simulate coping and get used to lifting up and over it, tap the front wheels down on the ramp above it (under the coping), and lift them back up and over the dowel as you ride back down. One key thought was to sink down into the transition, as in drop my butt down as I ride back down to help stay out of the back seat and keep from zinging out.

[@D.FRESH1]

Yo is Dale riding a Grimple Stix board??

[@dutchmcfadyen5867]

I came here to say the same! I was checking those out last night 😅

[@gabriel__drake]

I thought he rides Anti Hero

[@D.FRESH1]

@@dutchmcfadyen5867 I’ve got the Peter Hewitt pigeon vision Grimple. It’s an 8.38. I’m riding 149 Indy’s on it too. I thought they would be a bit too wide but they are perfect. But the wheel base is a little bit big for my liking. I think it’s 14.25 or 14.5 inches. I like a 14 or shorter even. I’m short. 5-5. Short legs. But it’s fun on the pump tracks, mini or vert ramps, and curbs.

[@dutchmcfadyen5867]

@@D.FRESH1 see I would want it even bigger 😅 I'd skate those specs just for fun, farting around. But when it comes to the more serious stuff, bowls, vert ramps, etc I gotta have at least 14.5 & 8.5 preferably 15 & 9 lol lol.

[@guilhermencto]

Hey Dale, what's your setup? 👀

[@ryanrowe1975]

Skating close to the wheels and changing the front trucks to extending the weight of a higher transition

[@mchungleplumble]

What

[@ryanrowe1975]

@@mchungleplumble Holding on to the wheels and timing the approach of reaching more air and height too

The second that FART hit you got another subscriber.

[@enjoid3]

good video for the most part. constructive criticism is that you forgot to discuss shoulders and keeping them square

[@daydrip]

I got a heel bruise from doing rock to famkie on a mini ramp and taking my back foot off to catch my self after rocking on the coping and losing balance

[@TeloMeaningEnd]

Broke my ankle trying to learn to rock fakie so now I’m scurred I could definitely do it on something gentle just haven’t found the right ramp near me

[@benoduartebd]

What is the real tip? I found nobodys says it. Dont be scared! Lead with the shoulder first. Thats what i found out after slamming alot. Also controling the board by being wide and a little weight on your toes more than heels, seems to give me more control. Lets do another video. Alot of people are having problems with this one.👍

Can you show some tips where AJ or Chris do one super steezy and boned out

[@viracocha03]

What size q/p is being skated on in the first half the video?

[@michaelrosazza4814]

I think you did a great job!

[@MrHenry805]

You guys should do a board set up video 🤙🏼

[@michaelkrauer1286]

Not really. Board setup videos are pretty boring.

[@RodneySloan]

Give it gas.

[@vj_henke]

be careful with the barbed wire fence at the top of the ramp 😮

[@manashieldworld]

Yo does Dale run Keen Ramps or something? Bruh... Do you work with cities or anything like that? I'm an older loser returning skater that wants some improvements to my city.. Help me help you get paid and get some skatespots built for my city :')

[@stajbc]

Turn your head and not your body to look back into the ramp

[@ras0ne]

Rock to fakie is harrowing. You WILL eat shit. And at some point you'll get it.

[@XNobleX]

Farting is never not funny! That was hilarious! More farts during trick tips!

[@Damon-v6h]

I think its crazy grown men cant do this trick. I see it all the time at parks

[@TheAnimeist]

0:20 Does Dale realize he's using the wrong end of the ramp to rock on? 0:32 Great, Keen Ramps will soon need to buy carbon offsets.
