Spot on, we have to enjoy it. I started at 41 so no dreams of doing anything with it other than creating a little harmony between work life and personal well being. I share the sessions to show people that if I can do it anyone can.
that kickflip was honestly perfect. you just need more confidence, and you'll do just fine. you're doing everything right, just start to believe a little more and things will come easier.
Thanks man yup I'm a low confidence skater thats for sure. I've been improving mentally recently but thats probably the hardest part of skateboarding for me. I think I'm capable of a lot more but need to get my head in the right place. Thanks for the advice 🙏
I seem to remember a pro skater (I can't remember which one) telling someone that he always missed some of his first tricks at demos, just the get the crowd rooting for him to land stuff. Seeing the progression and achievement is often more interesting than the trick.
@@iamlazyskater I probably heard it on the nine club. Watching Gonz fail to land a trick for 1:55 minutes is some of the most inspiring skating I’ve ever seen. th-cam.com/video/t80pkSCunmQ/w-d-xo.html
I have the same thing with my axle stalls. I realized that my front shoulder wasn't committing and so it was leaning towards into the deck of the ramp instead of staying in line with the coping, or square with my board.
Yup that’s definitely one of the main problems for me too. I think the other is leaning a little too far forward. That makes it difficult to pivot round because the board wants to land on the deck almost instantly
@@iamlazyskater definitely feel the whole burnout thing, I feel like the best way to go is to let your board take you and just go with what feels natural to you that day.
Appreciated this video m8. I wasn’t looking at your channel subs really when it started and was just playing some games in the background and when I looked I was surprised. You talk with a confidence and familiarity of someone with a much bigger audience. Good stuff bro and best of luck with your skate journey. Nice kicky also!
Thanks for tuning in. I have another channel doing something else so have a lot of experience with video making now. I’m transferring that over to this channel now 👍
@@iamlazyskater I actually set myself a target of 200 sessions in a 52 week period starting just before the end of the year. To force myself to go out there more and try to progress but now being 22 weeks in the grind is starting to get to me. I’ve definitely improved but I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I’ve really had to force myself out sometimes and that the enthusiasm isn’t as high as it could have been.
Mate, as someone who has just started a channel documenting my progress. I’m finding that you just need to enjoy the process! Filming is cool and all but there is nothing like pulling up to a skatepark, jumping on the board and having fun. Keep ripping 🤙
Dont worry man I still find the time to do that too. I usually go out specifically on my own to film and then have sessions where I just skate too. Thanks for watching though and appreciate the comment 🙌
park looks sick, surprised you have the place to yourself. i prefer the concrete parks/obstacles, my nearest local is asphalt and prefab. it's functional, just gotten rough over the years of east coast (us) weather
Yeah concrete is the best! I go early in the morning on week days and I usually get it to myself. Sometimes there is the odd beginner trying to avoid the crowds as well.
Yo appreciate it! I actually got them from a shop called boohoo. I’ve no idea why but they’ve got some ‘skate’ jeans in their shop so decided to give them a go. I love the fit and they were cheap too. The only downside is they have a weird drawstring type belt with a plastic clip buckle and no belt loops…they always come loose!
The handle may be Lazy skater but the homie is far from lazy. Yeah man just skate for yourself and make yourself happy. No need to put so much pressure on yourself. Skating is meant to be fun. I get it with TH-cam and the $$$ aspect of it but for me just do you, relax and have fun. It will make for better content.
@@iamlazyskater Feeble is on the back truck and the board my good man, on a 1/4 like that one, the outside edge of one wheel might hit the deck and that is ok as long as the board is on the coping. Try feeble stall to fakie on a quarter and you will get what i mean.

Nice. It’s good to have that perspective and the space to just have fun! 🙌
That’s was awesome much love from Australia

That rings a bell. Pretty interesting strategy too. I’ll have to try and find out who it was! Thanks for watching

Thanks so much man appreciate it! Was so stoked on that flip! That new grip really helped I think

Yeah I’m having to do it more and more lately 😂 thanks for tuning in!

Yeah never forget what you got into it for. To have fun. Good reminder for myself too.
100%. No point doing it otherwise 🙌

Sick video man! Whitby is one of my favourite local parks
Fun little park yeah! I’ll be doing more videos there for sure!
Good video!
Nice one dude, I dream of being as good as you one day!
Appreciate that man! Keep at it and I’m sure you’ll get there 🙌
Good on you mate that were class
🙏
"Good excuses aren't they, I could just land it!" 😂😂 Very funny! Keep up the videos and the training man! Subbed.
😂 thanks man. Hopefully more coming soon
@@iamlazyskater I'm looking forward to it! Definitely wanna see more videos of you skating and attempting things!
Nice video brother! Sweet deck! Subscribed...
Appreciate that man! Thanks 🙌
Clean kickflip bro!
Much appreciated! 🙌

That kickflip was dopeeeee
Thanks bro 👊
🤘💪
Thanks for watching 🙌
Highly relatable dude, also pretty solid/clean kickflip there too. Just wondering what pants those are? Looking great. Cheers!

@@iamlazyskater The no belt loops doesn't sound like the greatest idea to me either haha. Thank for the reply back dude, have a good one!
::: slams wheels on ground after you landed that clean kickflip ::: WHOOOOT!
🙌🙌🙌
dude you're good at skating,
Appreciate that man, thanks a lot!
loving this channel so far! What is the wireless mic that you are using??
Its a Rode Wireless Go
You could use your beats for the skate videos in the background, synchronise cuts to kicks and snares. More style, more pleasure ;)
I will definitely incorporate some more music in the future yes! Thanks for the suggestion 🙌
what wireless mic do you use
Rode wireless go 1
JUST….HAVE….FUN.
yeah its supposed to be fun. not something that becomes a chore or something you look down on yourself because you cant do what so and so does.

For sure man yeah! Thanks for the support. This path is definitely the one that will end up more rewarding!
Hi Lazy, missing an axle stall is not a feeble, style and technic are most important, you can't call that shit a feeble, pls sir.
How is that not a feeble lol. Back truck locked in, front truck on the deck. Thats a feeble. Sure accidental but its still what it is.
@@iamlazyskater Feeble is on the back truck and the board my good man, on a 1/4 like that one, the outside edge of one wheel might hit the deck and that is ok as long as the board is on the coping. Try feeble stall to fakie on a quarter and you will get what i mean.
Lazy and skater
Don’t think thats real
You would of had the Manny for sure. Kickflip to fakie was textbook. Salute 🫡.
Thanks a lot! I gotta go back and get that soon 🤘
