I like the nose grab/ kick turn tip!! great video, thank you!

[@adrianbenedykt7591]

Saw your vídeos in the morning before went to the Park! Love your vídeos about bowls and transitions!!!!

[@markrivers4179]

found this really helpful..I really struggle to get on top of the coping or out of transition..I skate bowls and love carving so am always inside the transition and am a pretty inexperienced skater so will try your advice on getting up and out to see if I can get it..thank you

[@kacperwalter]

How’s your progress going?

[@sk84life80]

Great video. I'm a street guy from the 90's, and really need(want) to build up my transition a little. Doesn't need to be alot, but I need to get more comfortable. Problem is, the nearest is about an hour drive. With wife, kids, and work, it's hard to find the time.

[@snufkin4568]

buy / build 2 quarter pipes about 3 / 4 feet wide. If you cant fit them, fresh park makes foldable 3x4 (3foot high) but they're expesnive. Either way, mini ramp is an awesome way to get comfy with tranistion and you can literally do it at the house. If you wanna skate and have a family, having something like that allows you to progress quickly, skate frequently, and spend more time with the family. Having your kids seeing you skate may even get them interested as well.

Really good tips and not seen before with transition thank you

[@diegojmartin]

Thanks for these tips! I am trying to get comfortable with decking my rock tricks a bit deeper. Currently, I can get the front truck past coping, and maybe a bit more, but I get really sketched out when I try to shove that board deeper. I dream of fs rock/roll, and understand I need to deck the board more to get clearance for my trucks. Thanks Zack!

Hello Zack, i m your subscriber from Russia 🇷🇺)! Love you presentation style on KZbin, It would be great to make a series on history of skateboarding brands( core, indy, new glibal corps) , many youngsters doesn’t even know the roots)

[@ZackDowdy]

That's a great idea thank you!!

[@hogg8888]

Thats a stunning day over here in the UK

[@ZackDowdy]

It's great for skating!

[@richsantiago1]

Great vid. also I appreciate you using the part of OB that I practiced so much transition myself. lots of lessons learned on there. Right on!

[@ZackDowdy]

Such a good training zone!

[@ThePepsimax84]

these are some solid tips. It's always refreshing to get something useful and precise to do.

[@onlyMGB]

Hey Zack I’m just now seeing this video & just wanna say thank you for the info this was great💙

[@wdoering01]

nice tips! Loved the grabing the lip idea! will put into practice soon! Thx!

[@jakekiyo]

Really glad you stress the warm up. I see so many dudes ignore it and pay later in the session

[@justingenest5368]

Expect nothing watching this video but im jumping on my board tomorrow morning trying grabbing that nose all the time, it made me realise i have enormus progression coming! Really helpful thank you!

[@crispy_toasty]

Did you keep going with it? 🛹

[@skatercurator]

I like the hacks on how to get comfortable grabbing your tricks! Amazing content Brotha! Nice hat too. I’m going to use these ideas in my next session. Thanks!

[@paulfield6815]

Your videos always make me want to go out and skate! Thanks for that.

[@BigAlSkateTutorials]

Thanks for the hype my man! Makes me want to go out and skate

[@ZackDowdy]

See you soon!

[@VileSourdough]

had this video on my feed so i watched it and then i realized im in the background lol

[@TheFrancisLalanne]

that was extremely useful ! thanks

[@intransition8548]

Great tips, you should Collab with Chad Caruso for sure

[@ZackDowdy]

That dude rips!

[@robertborden2666]

He’s a great guy if you meet him. Very relatable. When you discussed nose grab turns I thought of him because I know he wants to learn BS airs and I think that’s a tip that’ll make it work. It teaches you to get compact enough to control yourself in the air and make a full body turn as a unit.

10/10 would recommend.

[@Harold-os6bc]

Bro you got some advice on carving frontside in bowls? I can skate tranny no problem and I have a good flow but I can’t get over that mental barrier that’s blocking me from shredding frontside. Mitchie Brusco said not to worry about it so much, it’s been 21 years though. That’s not the best advice either way I still have fun but I’d love to be able to flow both sides.

[@CheesyManoushe]

pls do a separate cess slide video :) great videos, so helpful

[@pauleugenio5914]

nice vid I'm gonna practice them kick-grabs now B)

[@With_Reggie]

Nice hat king

🔥🛹🤙👍Good job Zack

[@gameboysleepyd4277]

I love that park. I was just there on Sunday

[@ZackDowdy]

The best park! I love the noping

[@gameboysleepyd4277]

@@ZackDowdy NOPING lol I learned a lot there at that park but I still suck lol but it's always a good vibe there and good times

[@Fr4nFx]

Zack, what is your setup for bowl or transitions ?

[@johnny8030]

that's a great park

[@calisober7]

You should make a video on How To Do Back D's if you haven't already

[@exodusoh]

What park did you say this was? I’m going to SD in December and wanna skate parks like this

[@robertborden2666]

I tried a few CES(?) slides over the last few days. Very awkward. I’ll keep trying though.

[@aubliz1292]

great vid

[@arthurwedlock2857]

Ces slide. Never knew they had a name been doing them for a bit now

[@ZackDowdy]

Super fun!

[@NewEdgeGaming2]

My local skate park just has one big ass bowl that’s it and it’s the only skate park for like 100 miles

[@stonks-xj5io]

Here was I thin king you couldn't get bad weather in Cali.

Awesome vid, music track?

[@carlosloera2300]

How is it like skating 215s on transition?

[@ZackDowdy]

There's pros and cons, you can have a lot more truck to grind but tight turns can be tough.

[@keithreynolds6359]

I tried it for a while but switched back to my trusty 169's. 215 is a whole lotta truck. Tony Alva makes it look good though.

[@mikepowers9580]

Would you say earlier the better for getting an empty park?

[@ZackDowdy]

Always better! I like the AM session because it's not hot yet too ;)

[@sk84life80]

Is the message on your hat a truth or just a print on a hat? I'm cool with it. Personally, I can't mix the devil's lettuce with skating. I get too relaxed.

[@ZackDowdy]

I can't either! It's my wife's companies hat :)
