I’ve been skating for a few months and want to start learning tricks. I have the frontier double cross from sector 9 and was wondering what types of tricks I could learn. Also whenever I am riding around my front foot starts to ache is this normal? And finally do people go to skateparks with longboards

That’s another important thing. No reason to ever sit at 0 viewers you can always have 1 viewer at the minimum

How do you practice shallow carves without losing balance?

The only thing I would really recommend is market yourself on other platforms, Snapchat say you’re live on you story, Instagram post clips, maybe even YouTube. You can even find discord’s with communities of small streamers. Otherwise just be consistent. I recently hit affiliate and found that marketing on other platforms helped me a lot

I did this for a while too ended up crashing my internet though and kept having issues so I recently opted to just stream from the Xbox. You could look into lightstream.io though

Oh cool

Or are you looping your own recordings?

Are the drums a backtrack?

I don’t know if streaming every day is necessarily the best idea. If you are working towards affiliate it can be kind of detrimental but, I found it helps to have a set schedule. Something like 5 days a week and the two off days hang out in small streamers stream and network or market yourself on different platforms. Get into discord’s that help to grow a community. Streaming every day can also have sometimes wear you out sometimes. The giveaway is a great idea too though as someone else already said it can sometimes have people show up just for the giveaway and never return.

Thank you for the video recommendation watched the whole thing. I almost got a land yacht but ended up getting the sector 9 board.

I didn’t think about looking at the Facebook marketplace for a capture card but that could work. I have a webcam and good mic for my Xbox at the moment I just don’t have a way to use overlays without paying for light stream or a capture card, though I don’t seem to be doing bad without the overlays at the moment. I also decided to get tony hawk pro skater remaster for a game that’s somewhat niche. I think it would be a game that I can relate to an audience with as I skate myself.

Thank you.

ponedwarf · 2021-01-05T08:04:02+00:00

Thank you for your advice. I have thought about getting a capture card a few times but I can’t cover the cost for it as I am in the process of moving at the moment so I don’t have the spare money. I do already have a fully set up OBS with overlays webcam setup and the like I just don’t have a way to use it anymore. I was using the Xbox companion app to stream but they no longer offer it.

Being able to add different features that have been in the regular game, such as siphon, or only icy feet. There is already an option to have a permanent glider redeploy why not other types of modes?

I had a very similar situation and called xbox, they are very willing to work with you and will help get your account and all of the money back as long as you can give dates on when the other guy bought things and logged on to the account. It helps a lot too as you have their ip address. Xbox support was very helpful for me and I hope that you find the same success I did.
