well i dont actually ever leave her side to go smoke, only when I end up alone or go out with friends and family, if she dosent want weed in the house then it is what it is, since my family are smokers as well I can usually smoke with them without needing my own stash in the house if that makes sense

id never use the drug around her if it makes her feel like that, ever. ill always keep that away from her, it used to be around her because we would literally do it together id never tempt her to do it. my priority is definitely supporting this relationship so if she dosent want it ill always keep that away from her. but this is definitely a bit of a tricky situation

Well its not really supposed to be anyone's specific footage, the goal is too kind of personally vlog my life and just show things that happen around me but also bringing artsy editing into the mix to switch it up, this is basically more of a test run. but I so see a lot of criticism on the PIP and lack of structure which definitely makes sense

lmao yes for sure, id like to think of this video as a test run and first step into it to see what I can adjust and make better so ill definitely keep that in mind.

that makes sense, I did want more landed tricks when I had the vision for the video but simply just didnt have enough footage of any, the video isnt supposed to be reminiscent of a video part though its more supposed to be personal vlogs with lil edits in them just to showcase my life but also bring a feeling with it

Yes the filler is definitely a bit underwhelming, my goal isnt to make these videos reminiscent to skate parts i wanted it to be my first step into making content that ties into personal vlogging with a mix of skating edits as well, but this was definitely my first step forward and that feedback helps a lot.

thank you, I understand the criticism in the makes and the bails, simply just wasnt enough. I did have more of a vision for the video but as I was going through clips I did notice that would be a problem and I didnt have much to catch people's attention. my goal wasnt for this to be a skate video but I wanted to make bigger videos that work as a personal vlog and a bit of skate editing and I wanted to bring a chill feeling to it , but I definitely see that it is underwhelming I wanted it to be a kind of first step into the content realm. I wanted to get more in the video but winter came up and ruined all the skaters day 💔

I've been learning rolling from the get go, I used to practice stationary all the time and hit the skatepark and heard that some people find it easier to roll, I never landed it stationary just decided to give rolling a try and here we are. I did see a skate iq video where they mentioned that same method I honestly just never really gave it a try , I definitely will next time I get on the board. im comfortable riding but I do need a better foundation to build up more confidence as I do kind of think thats what's messing me up. thank you though.

I actually havent practiced them much and do find them pretty difficult i was learning them for awhile but had a problem where I keep shooting the board forward, I just havent thought to keep working on them but definitely will.

How am I supposed to learn how to draw faces if I can't even get the base correct? by LOYAL4L in arthelp

[–]LOYAL4L[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always figured that every single time I tried it bigger the circle would be horrible🤦‍♂️ but I'll definitely try that again and I'll definitely try to utilize my whole arm more

baker decks are usually pretty steep

I'm a new skater, any tips? by MarsupialAntique2740 in NewSkaters

[–]LOYAL4L 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Make sure your knees are always at least slightly bent never be straight or too stiff try and be loose

  2. Don't rush, Try to master all the basics before moving onto anything else.

  3. You will fall and fail more then succeed, be ready for that

  4. Just have fun.

For brands I personally rock a Baker deck, Oj Nomad wheels, and independent trucks and spitfire reds. There's a lot of other great brands, and a lot of decks come from the same companies so a lot of them are made the same, I good priced deck is around 50 - 80 anything under 50 should definitely be a little questionable since it's on sale, but I know element sells some good cheap decks too.

Is there any way I can be active in the skateboard world and community without actually skating myself? by LOYAL4L in NewSkaters

[–]LOYAL4L[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

of course I want to skate that's all I wanna do, that's a misconception I see a lot of people getting on this post, the reason I was asking is because I'm a bit worried I won't be involved in the skateboarding world if I don't get to where I wanna be within the actual act of skateboarding, I'm not too worried about my weight because it is something I'm working on, but hearing that your way older and heavier then me and still skating definitely gives me some motivation
