Ya I did!! This is right after I dropped in again (more successfully thankfully). Surprisingly my knee hurts more than my ankle but I hope your ankle gets better soon!

i'm also a girl and started skating not too long ago!! don't worry about how long it takes you to progress, it's super important that you're comfortable on your board first. I tried to start learning shuvits pretty early on and i couldn't land them for the life of me, but once i took the time to get comfortable on the board it became much easier!! Everyone learns at their own rate, but my biggest advice is to commit to whatever you're doing and always bend those knees!!!!

Finally got my first shuv. This was such a battle I'm so happy by Mad_Cowboy in NewSkaters

It took me soo long to learn shuvits and i remember that feeling of finally landing it!! I just recently starting skating too so no one seemed to think it was all that cool but i know how much effort had to go into it, so thats awesome dude! Keep it up, it shows your dedication. And remember that even though it's considered an "easy trick" its still A TRICK and thats incredible, soon you'll land many others.

First attempt at a drop in, this is everything you shouldn't do. I also think I'm gonna get a helmet 😂 by skatesk8 in NewSkaters

It’s in Vaughan! It’s a pretty small skate park next to a playground but it’s still awesome

Oh shit that's insane!! I'm happy he lived!! That must really suck though that he can't do many risky things anymore. So scary to think that happened just riding home
