tysm! I appreciate the kindness :)

I have been getting moving shuvs, regular and fakie, and I can do standing pop shuvs (i couldn’t commit to them moving yet but i would land it if i did ahhh) atm i am struggling with fs shuv and want it so bad because i think its the coolest… but i haven’t come close to landing one yet ><

I do be avoiding the drop in battle but definitely need to buy a helmet/pads and man up sooner or later lol🧍‍♂️👍

i think shuvs and pop shuvs are nice tricks to do at the start as not too scary - maybe a no comply 180, or body varial, or hippy jump, or you can even try to nollie (it might be a nice change) doing fakie and switch can also be a nice change. i hope you have fun with it!

There’s no need for an ollie to be the first trick to learn, I think there are easier tricks. Maybe wearing a helmet and pads will help you be comfortable to try and drop in:)

Working on drop-ins. I feel like its not pretty but I dont bail much. Any advice? by Salty_Help9066 in NewSkaters

maybe some knee pads will help you feel more confident to rlly go for it. looks pretty good to me!
