Yo Zack! Loving your skating man… joy to watch! I’m learning to skate again after 20 years! Struggle is real. Concrete tastes different at 35 😂 I’m getting there tho man. Hopefully I’ll be near your level in the future 👊

[@SabiaCDO]

I'm 41 and I skate for about 3 years. I have a mini ramps (wooden) in my backyard and I am TERRIFIED. Street skating comes more natural to me. Learning this at my age... is really... really a challenge.

[@Mafon2]

It's always the challenge.

[@heathschmidt7516]

Love the Peter Hewitt quote!Thanks for the video!

[@exteenager4087]

Allyoop a bit in helped me a lot starting doing those disasters with rails! Almost felt like i had to relearn them with the slippy rails!

[@rulehardgarage9740]

I've never tried a backside disaster and after watching this video you made be realize I might be able to pull it off. Unlocked it in pretty easily! Big thanks to you. Next up is to slide it.

[@janseger1693]

Dude. You make those moves look so ez. respect.

[@skipthebadtrack]

really nice tutorial, next time I'm at the park I'll definitely try disasters. also, please make a tutorial on how to air in the mini! It took me the whole of 2022 to learn proper frontside airs in my local mini ramp but I can't get my head around backside airs

[@ZackDowdy]

Will do!

[@rockytracy]

@@ZackDowdy yeah backside airs don’t click to me I’d like to see that

[@skipthebadtrack]

@@ZackDowdy just came back from the park, landed 5 or 6 f/s disasters today! the tutorial worked

[@MT05151]

Thanks for the awesome tips any tips from u as when I do BSD , I tend to lock on my front truck instead of landing and locking in the middle of the deck

[@michaelmulholland1194]

Great tutorial I think this one is going to get me over the line with back disasters. Tail blunts and nose blunts would be a good one.

[@oliewray8357]

Tail blunt 😂

[@WoodPusher18]

Appreciate this video very much because I’ve been wanting to learn these tricks recently because I personally skate more street so when skating transitions I suck! But these are the tricks I’ve been wanting to go for recently but just didn’t have any tips/help but now I do 💪🏼 will definitely try them next time I’m at a park 👊🏼

[@Warriordan44]

I've always wanted to learn back disasters. never could I was so obsessed with still that I never learned the technique afraid to lose the style..

[@farwoodfarm9296]

I learned frontside Lipsides by accident trying to frontside 180 a little too close to the coping. A eureka! Moment.

[@Kawititureicopeman]

As a scooter rider this same rule applies:)

[@jmzan]

Thanks been trying to learn disasters

[@joaquinesparza5654]

Heck yeah dude love this !

[@hughwilla4744]

[@sambadelow9144]

Good video 🤘

[@adrichigh9478]

Nice video! & thanks for using a mic! It look super windy in the background & this video would not have been watchable if I had to hear the wind the entire video

[@herrlogi]

[@coachdaveskateboardingnj2941]

[@zepaz7990]

[@zachsisk192]

What lens do you normally shoot with for your X-T3?

[@ZackDowdy]

18-55mm

[@paulbunyan89]

idk if i missed it, but seems like it might be good to learn bs boardslide first on transition before lipslides? i have bs disasters down, but find it really hard to slide my board on transition. any tips on bs boardslide on transition?

[@ZackDowdy]

Similar to lipslide try keeping your back truck almost locked into the copping between your deck.

[@joha1n10]

What shirt is that it’s sick 😮🎉

[@BagelDaze]

Can't wait to see you learn sugarcane!

[@ZackDowdy]

Was just working on that one!

[@zJerryyyyy]

same here, sugarcanes are g as fuck haha

[@Warriordan44]

yours actually look pretty good though..

[@nopopshit]

Check out our dead ramp😄

[@kennyhuh09]

Learned front D in one day, can not figure out backside for my life, board always wants to fly away

[@ZackDowdy]

The big difference is keeping backside under you where frontside you're more behind it.

[@scottkeenan6339]

You got scammers creeping around the comment section.

[@johndoeyedoe]

Always ollied bs disaster.

[@ottoahmadp.5738]
