Wow thanks man no one has ever said not to keep your shoulders parallel with the board on your way down I always catch my self parallel to the copping for some reason. If I knock this trick out its gonna be because of you
Out of all the tutorials ive seen on the rock to fakie this was the most helpful for me, unfortunately its very wet in autumn where i live so i cant skate for now but i definently feel more confident now that ive seen this.
Love your tutorials. Currently I'm trying this out from what you have explained.Being a street skater, transition skateboarding is something really new to me. Thanks so much! Stay blessed!
Thank you so much. Really appreciate the support and I hope these videos help. Feel free to reach out if you are struggling with anything. In the next 3 months I have 3 more trick tip videos coming out. Hope you like them too :)
Great tutorial. I thought I had this trick down but slammed really hard a few times hanging up and have been reluctant to try it again. The big tip for me is keeping my shoulders in line with the board as I was going back in blind, which just sets you up for a hard fall...
Fantastic video! I don't think have ever seen or heard the great tip about not facing forward and keeping shoulders straight so you can turn your head and watch coming back in.
I’ve been struggling with the rock to fakie for some time now... you explained everything so well as before I was doing exactly at 7:08 where my body was facing the ramp which prevented me from going back. Hopefully after this tutorial I will be more comfortable and overcome my fears
You have no idea how happy this comment has made me. I really do hope these videos help people learn how to get these tricks :) I’m always up for people DM’ing clips to my IG @sb.academy so if you still have trouble send one over so I can hopefully give some more advice. Thanks again
I love your thps special bar gimmick :-) and I´ve seen multiple rock to fakie videos, but from you I finally learned my mistake! open shoulders are my cryptonite on this trick! I was always going back blind, which of course was even more scary, than it has to be. thanks dude! gonna sub now!
Dude I’m so glad it helped! I try my hardest to break each truck down as much as possible. Thank you so much for the sub :) I’ll keep trying to make good videos for you all :)
Never seen this channel but this is an unexpectedly great tutorial, well done! I found the slo-mo, the step by step description and the visuald (arrows etc.) really really helpful. Just a question: some ramps do NOT have any copings, would you suggest trying them first or I should try rock to fakie with one with a coping?
You will want them slightly bent to start. Notice in this, I don’t have them bent too much as I’m going into the trick or when rocking the board but they bend on the way back into the ramp to absorb the the momentum of coming back in. If you are still worried about the trick, you can have someone stand next to you in the ramp and they can hold you hands as you rock and come back in. This can help you get more confidence before going for it solo.

What's the dynamics between the back leg/foot and front leg/foot when "rocking forward" and "rocking backward"? When you're rocking forward to place your front wheels on the deck, do you press down the front foot and simultaneously lift the back foot? When rocking forward, do you press down the back foot and simultaneously lift the front foot?
Good question The rock doesn’t have to have the wheels touch but you want to feel the board seesaw on the coping. You should be leaning back a little as you want to come back into the ramp straight after the rock. Whilst you are leaning back going into the rock you should gently push your front foot down to create that seesaw motion. The seesaw motion will automatically cause your back foot to lift as you gently press your front foot forwards. If you have a clip of your rock fakie technique, feel free to DM me on IG @sb.academy so I can give you advice on what you are currently doing.
Hey I can do most it’s when I put the board down on the deck I just jump off no even meaning to I have broke my arm on this trick before so I’m trying to learn it just dunno how to not jump off when I rest the board down over coping
Same here dude I got everything down except when I come back in I hop off I’m not scared to crash or anything I’ve crashed many times on this trick but I come back and always end up jumping off
@@copperheadfpv9020 have you tried it on really small ramp with coping, like a 1-2 foot one? Try do it like LOADS on that to build up the rhythm. Thing is with skating it just takes as long as it takes to get the trick, there is no rush at all and everyone is different. Wear all pads/wrist braces too as they give a big layer of confidence
This is by far the best instruction video for rock to fakie (trust me I watched them ALL)! You are a great teacher keep it going 🙏
Thank you so much ☺️ had lots of life stuff going on but plan on getting back into creating these soon 🙏
One thing to add is it is really easy to slip out at the bottom as you have much more speed than you are used to. Really good tutorial 💪💪
That's what I been finding.
@@philipbarber7905 stay low and relaxed and keep your head over your board.
Good advice
This is the best video about rock to fakie on the internet, I checked.
Thank you so much! I really hope it helps everyone :)
Amazing teaching skills. Thanks so much. Looking forward to try this out next time.
Thank you so much! Feel free to send me clips on instagram if you need any feedback on what you are trying :)
Struggling with the reentry, thanks for the tips, will give it another go tomorrow.
How did it go? Have you managed to unlock the trick yet?
Great video! Thanks from Brazil

Man you need to make more how to videos like these👍good job bro
Working on more, they just take a while to shoot and edit. Next up is the kickflip tutorial

That’s true, you get some transitions which have no coping but the technique will be the same :)
@@SBAcademysk8 cool, thanks!
Just found your channel and subbed. Good content.
Thank you so much dude :)
Been scared of this too. Not sure how bent the knees have to be. Or maybe they just go with the transition?
You will want them slightly bent to start. Notice in this, I don’t have them bent too much as I’m going into the trick or when rocking the board but they bend on the way back into the ramp to absorb the the momentum of coming back in.
