Why You CAN'T FS 5050 Grind! | Common Mistakes Explained!

[@einnorw]

fs 50-50 is such a mental battle for me for some reason

[@vfxamin]

Did you land it?

[@einnorw]

@@vfxamin yeah lol i can fs shuv and 180 out of them now :) key was to avoid hollow ledges and start on small obstacles and work my way up

[@vfxamin]

@@einnorw awesome I landed my first one recently I'm trying to get them consistent

[@einnorw]

@@vfxamin nice!! good job man 👍🏽

[@illusions3272]

Same

[@tyrellbaal6285]

Thx for the vid man i am actually trying to learn grinds this is going to be helpful

[@seanbrownskating]

Good luck!

Bro, sean brown is the goat! Better tutorials then Braille

[@thisbadmonkey]

You definitely should be able to lock into a fs 5050 when you are rolling parallel to the obstacle. If not, practice that. Being able to Do an Ollie "forward" Is key imo. Also it's much harder to Ollie onto a curb than ollieing into a 5050 on a curb, because you are more likely to screw up the timing and get stuck with your back truck on the edge of the curb, which most likely makes you go full Superman without your board. I definitely would recommend practicing ollieing into the 5050 while standing still in front of the curb to get a feel for it. Think: ollie in front of you, front foot first. If you are able to do that, you also can do it rolling. Sidenote: at a certain curb-hight it gets easier to do it rolling in comparison to standing still, at least for me.

[@SHAJ_is_me]

For those of u who r having trouble riding off the end of the obstacle, try riding off the SIDE of the obstacle like in 4:16 . I tried this and it was intimidating at first but now it doesn't feel much different than doing a kickturn on flat.

[@jaylenfourier9292]

I’m gonna try this, seems like such a good tip!

[@PopInternational8787]

This video found me, it knew I was having trouble with 5050s, thanks Sean ❤️

[@seanbrownskating]

Glad it found you!

[@xilin6882]

thanks i need it that detail help alot

[@SkateState]

Thank you! I needed this one. I’ll be working on this!

[@gabem5635]

I needed this !!! Thank you!!

[@seanbrownskating]

Glad to help!

[@PHeMoX]

Jumping on the board already in 5050 on the ledge helped me a lot with this one. I can now get into them and out of them (although, for some reason doing a 180 out is easier for me), but I am working on doing them at a higher speed now.

[@laurent.8443]

this park looks nice. i want stuff like this in paris

[@Skatercrush]

Banger please keep them coming 🔥

[@seanbrownskating]

Will do!

[@andrewvogel5472]

I was tryna learn 5050s last time I was at that park (Monday) and I could only lock on like a Willy it was really frustrating

[@aligator3666]

me too its so frustrating i didnt even figure it out

[@dneck]

Sean your videos are great. I subbed. Keep up the cool content!

[@seanbrownskating]

Thanks! Will do!

[@AmadeusDoesStuff]

You should make a pov frontside 50-50 grind tutorial.

[@seanbrownskating]

Good thinking! I'll add it to the list

[@TomiBorchert]

some tricks require speed, basic physics. when i skated as a kid i didint realise many basic things. understanding physics is important. also how to fall safely when tricks fail.

[@andrewnathanael529]

when you ollie frontside do you have to jump forward too?

[@tricklinerduckplayer5925]

Been trying to boardslide and its been pretty hard to learn my balance on a rail. Is 50-50s on ledges easier cause I might learn that first

[@S7_jrnl]

In terms of balance, I would say it’s easier but it also takes a lot more technique imo because with a board slide you just turn 90 and get your front trucks over but for a 5050 you have to lock into it but it just takes a little practice and you’ll get both 👍

[@tricklinerduckplayer5925]

@@S7_jrnl ay honestly didn't think you'd reply but thank you for the advice ill keep working on it and hopefully end up getting both down. Appreciate the help brother

[@calebsk8ts949]

Having to re learn em 😂 use to be able to 5050 easy stopped for a couple months now having a hard time getting up and locking in for some reason when I'm trying to ollie forward to get into the 5050 ny board will flip like a heelflip and get away from me

[@clorb1939]

my most common problem is i always land onto the ledge right on the coping never locked in

[@TayyJayy]

Why can't I just have a ledge that doesn't make me Ollie on at a specific angle it's too much

[@Shoedenmark]

I always jump too far forward for some reason on low ledges but on high ledges I’m fine

[@willmallory9085]

Excellent video.

[@tricklinerduckplayer5925]

I wanna learn this

[@TayyJayy]

My ledge on a skate park is too high and it's the only ledge there

[@claysoggyfries]

I keep ending up doing a heelflip instead of locking in

[@ron10_07]

I can do front 50's consistently but back 50's are hard for me😅

[@einnorw]

do an axel stall tutorial! please

[@Nootlest]

For some reason it's easier for me to go parallel. But I definitely over shoot sometimes. Maybe it's I should learn at an angle so I can learn more control Also do you find that higher ledges are a bit easier than something like a Manny pad?

[@seanbrownskating]

Do whatever works best for ya! And I would say something that is a comfortable ollie height. Anything too small is easy to mess up how you land on it.

[@1fashionsouls]

i keep overshooting and ollieing up the ledge instead of locking in the grind

[@gabem5635]

I always get my back trucks on locked in but my front trucks overshoot any tips??

[@isiahsk8866]

Bro I'm just learning grinds this vid is so helpful I also like how you invert the video for goofy

[@seanbrownskating]

Gotta help my goofy people out there!

[@joshgeneblazo7042]

YEOOOO i go to this park

[@seanbrownskating]

Da best park ever!

[@zacharymonrose2725]

Always end up cross locking into this, speed dies out then the board just slips off the ledge.

[@hyperlight5609]

Please do a video : why you can't bs 50 50

[@seanbrownskating]

I will for sure once I get them back down again!

I'm pretty sure I did too haha

[@ocelot_zz]

me too 😂

[@sutekaa]

i actually find it easiest to go up completely parallel

[@seanbrownskating]

Definitely do whatever works best for you! For me, it's a little easier going at an angle, especially when I was first starting

[@noctain6683]

5050s are harder then boardslides for me

[@seanbrownskating]

Boardslides are definitely easier

[@carstonbaldo1134]

This is going to be the reason I quit skating
