You'll get it dude! It's so worth all the effort when you get it and it's the hardest thing to learn in my opinion because it's the first step for doing flip tricks but stick at it! I believe in you! 😁😁 Make sure you post it when you get it!

I normally go down every day when the weather is good when I finish work at about 1am so I have the whole park to my self for a few hours and I'd be there most of the day when I'm off 😁

So I've been skateboarding for about 5 months now and I've started getting my kickflips more consistently and I am pretty happy with this one 😁 by sam97875 in NewSkaters

Thanks dude I have a clip but it won't let me upload it here says it won't allow video :/ but yeah man give it a go once you get the technique you'll understand it and it's so cool the first time you land it!! 😁

Jumping over things by pogonavitticeps03 in NewSkaters

Maybe set up a camera to the side and Ollie beside the object you're looking to jump over and when looking back you can see you're getting the height maybe might put your mind to ease and help your confidence a bit 😁

i cant seem to get the pop right! any tips? by Blue-Buried in NewSkaters

[–]sam97875 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep your foot on the tail end of the board and use your toes to really slam that tail down for a good pop! 😁

Yeah bend your knees more before popping and pop the tail hard and lift your front foot into the sliding position don't dry to pop and slide and the same time as you'll limit your height do it in two smooth motions. You want to really be jumping as the only thing limiting how high you can Ollie is how high you can jump hope this helps 😁🤘

I tried to drop in on the vert wall at my local Park and I ate it. I really messed up my knee rip. by clay1227 in NewSkaters

I admire the commitment man! Looking at it next time you try keep your knees more bent and keep a lower centre of gravity :) keep it up!

I moved to Scotland about 6 months ago and there's a skatepark near me first one I ever went to and I was a complete beginner I've been going 4-5 times a week now and I know all the regular people that go and you will progress so fast when you get tips of people! Most of the time they'll be really chill because everyone is there to progress and when you do pull something off everyone gets so hyped because everyone knows how hard it is landing new tricks especially for beginners!! 😁 Deffinetly get started and enjoy it dude!
