I have rediscovered skating after 35 years off and now at 51 years old I am HOOKED forever!
Transition skating is my PASSION and it’s what you’ll see me do majority of the time.
If you’ve contemplated getting back into skating again or if you’ve thought about starting from scratch, then DO IT immediately. Like literally today. Don’t wait! The boost in your MENTAL and PHYSICAL health will be enormous.
So head out right NOW! Trust me. You will be glad you did. But for God sakes wear a helmet!

If you keep that up kids are gonna mistake you for Tony Hawk! 😂
The inverted point at 0:07 was impressive
Dude! I love pointing. 👈
Awesome! Dang how many local parks you have close to u!?
Maybe 5-6 that are less than 30 minutes.
@@StevesSkateXplosion 🙀 thats awesome! Lucky!
Crazy right? After all, it’s Indiana. Not a huge skater state.
And for my next trick a bronken hip
I’ve come close a few times. 😄
@@StevesSkateXplosion keep ripn brother. I got 2 blown out knees. Take care of yourself!
Mate you are there! Just place your front foot just in front of the bolts, lean forward and commit. You got that!
One of the very first tricks I ever learned on a skateboard, and a timeless classic! Well done!
Thanks dude!
Nice rocks. Beautiful rolls.
What has helped me is to think about pushing back with the back foot and staying leaned in to the transition.
Yeah I think you’re right. I can picture it in my mind. 🤔
Yeah...nice smooth drop and carve! Well done sir!
I'm 35.. Sir, you have made me buy my first board ! 🫡🤙🏼
Incredible. Have you skated before? Or are you brand new?
@@StevesSkateXplosion "Brand new" used it as transport from A to B 20 years ago. Never even made an ollie.. Now is the time.
Whoa that’s incredible. You’re about to enter a brand new life! 😆
Love it when you’re not feeling it but end up learning something completely new. 🛹🛹🛹
Right? I love those unexpected surprises. 😀
Coming into transition with your back truck over the coping and using your nose is called ‘disaster’, so you’re doing a “fakie to disaster”. It was given that name because back before there were noses on skateboards coming back in that way would often lead to hanging up on the coping and ending in disaster lol
Oh man that makes sense.
Great vid!!
Nice work! I'm glad I'm not the only old guy relearning to skate board again🔥
Dude thanks! There are tons of skaters coming back. It’s like a wave of people.
there's a lot of skaters that feel more comfortable switch on transition vs street, I think you might be stanceless bruh, look up stanceless skater
Dude! You had that fakie rock n Roll! It was there for the taking. Next time dude. It's easier than you think! Just be a little lighter on your back foot. That's it!
Dude I don’t wanna progress too fast! You with me? 😜
@StevesSkateXplosion yeah, you're right. You'd better slow it down. You're getting out of control these days!
I’m glad you arranged this intervention to help me slow down. I just didn’t see it man.
@StevesSkateXplosion I'm here for you, buddy. Also, if you get too good, then you'll go pro and not have time to make awesome TH-cam videos and where does that leave me? That's right, all alone.I don't WANT to be alone.
@skater_scott 😂 Damn I never thought about it that way. I can’t let that happen. Okay! No more videos! I quit!
Nnoooo! Need a smaller ramp. You are close to more bad days
Dude any skate day is a good day. 🤕😀
steve when i have days like that , usually thats when one of my friends show up and gets the mojo back in the park and we all start skating better. you need some people to skate with . it will help to push you. its a good feeling when i see someone i havent seen in a while.
Dude people come up to me at parks now because they know me from this channel. I’ve got a couple dudes to skate with but I don’t film at those times.
@@StevesSkateXplosion thats when i get inspired. also it helps me when i see somebody actually do the trick im trying just to see that its possible. im not sure why that is. when i finally get the trick i have been trying and they cheer for me is great man. its the good energy that inspires me.
@@StevesSkateXplosion you dont like the fame?
@@chrhadden dude people know me and I don’t know them. Isn’t that wild?
Hey Steve. Just catching up on all the videos. Where is this bowl?
This one’s up in Zionsville near the high school.
That Graffiti is an Awesome background 👍💯
Awesome but a little slippery.
Very nice! Lookin great man. Good that we recognize those 'off days'. Must not try to force oneself if not feelin it. Time to chill and experiment a bit, cruise around, enjoy outside while maintaining muscle memory. I think of it as a minor warmup for my next proper session.
Agreed. Honestly if I’m not feeling it then I can relax and just enjoy a casual skate. 😃
Never thought of tryin tail stalls that way, much thanks.
Me neither till right then. 😆
Practice bringing the front truck up over the noping on revert
Oh that’s a good idea move. Thanks. 👊
Your vids always get me pumped to try new things. I’m headed to another new park tomorrow, don’t know what I’ll be working on but I’ll film another short about my progress. I’ve had off day’s too, don’t let it get you down. Looking forward to your next video. 🎉🛹
You're doing awesome dude! I'm working on and struggling with nose stalls right now.
Dude nose stalls sound sick! 👊
Yeah a proper tail stall would be when you fully come back onto the deck back into the drop in position. Always cool to see your progress 🙌
Hey bro. I was doing the same thing on tail stales because someone told me to concentrate on my tail pressing down. Wrong I think. I was whatching skateiQ guy on a video he was helping a guy do it. He told him to lift his front leg more. Bingo he got it. I tried it. It works. It feels very scary though because now you feel real high up even on a 4 ft ramp. Scary bro but doable.👍
Oh man scary indeed. I should practice on a bank to get my timing down and work up to a coping ramp.
Go full parking on top or skate iq's short: tail stall. Connecting that to rock fakies will be major! Next step fakie disasters. :) Keep it up! th-cam.com/users/shortsPlDjW7X2YPY?si=O-y9NzOS6Yo7gN-w
Nice video. You just gave me a new place to practice rock n rolls. I like being able to use the whole park, I've been rained out for 3 weeks now hoping for Friday return. I almost bought a 9 today but it was sold out. Then I measured my 8.75 and see very little difference between that and a 9". So back to the drawing board
You might check a 9.25” and see how that looks under foot. Maybe find a shaped deck that widens for your lead foot. 🦶
Riding fakie isn't easy, looking good!
Man your smashing it I'm really struggling with axle stalls currently and only just getting comfy with rock to fakies on 4ft transition with coping gotta try tail stalls my next video how to eat concrete 101 lol 😅
Dude axle stalls are taking me forever. ⏳
Great job! Awesome fakie roll outs. There’s no room up there! Looked scary. Just like you did with rock to fakie, practice the fakie rocks on that small transition without coping to get the feel. You’ll have those in no time. Nice progression!
Duuuuude, you are FLYING up there, precise, Lightspeed, astute, knowledgeable, I calculate your like a perfect 40 year old in energy as far as calculating your Han 🌞 you know, as far as evolutionary prowess with skateboarding since you began months ago, how mature you are rated, it’s awesome to see!!! Yes, your progression, your like a 40 years old in primordial prowess or progression, what you have grown to be as a carbonic life form with Steve’s essence you know, rating cum application you know, Man to Man 😊, very important to all of nature assessment and aspect of discussion, because it effects all of Planet’s FUTURE, and what’s also specific is that it is only a conversation that can happen between two males, or all only pure males in ALL of existence! It effects every male, and all FEMININE have this realm of the mind sectioned off specifically for THEIR essence, and at this level of discussion in existence you CRAVE the strong magnetics of independent sovereignty of both realms being independent from one another. Super fast Light speed SLEEK and devonair axlstalls that have become grown into 40 years in their own independent progression, since you have been practicing and presenting to the world your videos friend, AWESOME…to see. 😊🧠
Dude holy crap. 😄
I wanna Rock n Roll all night...
I just don’t like going in fakie
It’s pretty freaky for sure.
Looks like they are going to be another mental barrier. Your rock and rolls look awesome on that transition without coping, and those tail stalls look like you got too. Nice roll outs fakie too. 👏🏼👏🏼
Tail stalls are easier to learn - and actually a bit more stylish - when you keep your body over the transition instead of trying to get your body up and over the deck for a full stop. So actually, your current approach is right so far and your below-coping practice is good. But remember that once you get over the coping, your board will need to tilt quite a bit farther for the tail to make contact. It looks like you’re reluctant to commit to that full tilt motion, which is why you’re whiffing on it. (I know this because I’m battling the same exact problem myself on a bigger ramp.) Try this: Focus on your front knee - lift it up higher towards your chest. This will allow the board to tilt more and let the tail make contact with the coping/deck. The higher you lift that front knee, the more solid the contact will be and the better it will look. It seems scarier at first but it is actually less risky because your body is already floating over the board and ready to drop back in. When you do it right, your body will look a little bit like you’re doing one of those flying karate kicks. Maybe a good way to think of it - it’s like you want to give the coping a flying karate kick before rolling away. (Also a good future video title: assault the coping). Sorry for writing a novella on this one but good luck and go kick some coping!
Thank you dude. I absorbed that entire message and I can totally visualize it. Hey can you do fakie rocks?
@@StevesSkateXplosion Yep - in fact, I even feel more comfortable warming up with a fakie rock before doing tail stalls. What do you want to know?
👍🏻
Yes, all the way up on top of the deck, take a breath, look at the birds,..then drop back in. That's a proper tail stall.
Exactly what I was thinking. The longer up there the better. 👊😀
Instantly got mclovin vibes😂😂
From Superbad?!?
my brother that was fucking insane mad respect love from the land down under
Thanks bro. 👊😀
In a world full of 180 tre flips, double heelflips, blunt grinds on a stair rail, I love seeing guys doing simple things and just having fun skating. Hell yea brother.
I’m glad you like it because I think I’m too old for those more complex tricks! 😀👊
Keep it up brother! Legendary!
Thanks bro! 👊😀
😂
lol the dad energy that came out of this video could put a kid through college. 🤣🤣
I’ve got dad energy? 😮😆
Tony hawk is 56 let that sink in
Nuts isn’t it? I remember watching animal chin when Tony was a teenager. 😮
Heck yea ! Keep shredding 🤘🏽
👊
skate or die, im currently dying i think
Dude no way! You’re just getting started. 👊
Hell yeah Nixon
I'm 35 now. I skated from ages 12 to 26. I just started skating again a few months ago and man,it is taking me a while to get back into the groove.
Don’t ever quit now bro! 👊😀
Good shit bro I couldn't do that and I'm 45
