Great video. I'm a street guy from the 90's, and really need(want) to build up my transition a little. Doesn't need to be alot, but I need to get more comfortable. Problem is, the nearest is about an hour drive. With wife, kids, and work, it's hard to find the time.
buy / build 2 quarter pipes about 3 / 4 feet wide. If you cant fit them, fresh park makes foldable 3x4 (3foot high) but they're expesnive. Either way, mini ramp is an awesome way to get comfy with tranistion and you can literally do it at the house. If you wanna skate and have a family, having something like that allows you to progress quickly, skate frequently, and spend more time with the family. Having your kids seeing you skate may even get them interested as well.
found this really helpful..I really struggle to get on top of the coping or out of transition..I skate bowls and love carving so am always inside the transition and am a pretty inexperienced skater so will try your advice on getting up and out to see if I can get it..thank you
Hello Zack, i m your subscriber from Russia 🇷🇺)! Love you presentation style on TH-cam, It would be great to make a series on history of skateboarding brands( core, indy, new glibal corps) , many youngsters doesn’t even know the roots)
Thanks for these tips! I am trying to get comfortable with decking my rock tricks a bit deeper. Currently, I can get the front truck past coping, and maybe a bit more, but I get really sketched out when I try to shove that board deeper. I dream of fs rock/roll, and understand I need to deck the board more to get clearance for my trucks. Thanks Zack!
Expect nothing watching this video but im jumping on my board tomorrow morning trying grabbing that nose all the time, it made me realise i have enormus progression coming! Really helpful thank you!
I like the hacks on how to get comfortable grabbing your tricks! Amazing content Brotha! Nice hat too. I’m going to use these ideas in my next session. Thanks!
He’s a great guy if you meet him. Very relatable. When you discussed nose grab turns I thought of him because I know he wants to learn BS airs and I think that’s a tip that’ll make it work. It teaches you to get compact enough to control yourself in the air and make a full body turn as a unit.
I only have access to a 5 foot mini and I feel like a coward. I'm going to start with the nose-grabbing tip while i kickturn 3 feet high on the 5 foot ramp (in the middle of the ramp, like a coward). Also going to try that "Set" slide (no idea how to spell it). Make a whole video about the set (spelling?) slides if you can hahahahah. I've seen people make them look cool and I still don't understand it.
Is the message on your hat a truth or just a print on a hat? I'm cool with it. Personally, I can't mix the devil's lettuce with skating. I get too relaxed.

Great tips, you should Collab with Chad Caruso for sure
That dude rips!

Your videos always make me want to go out and skate! Thanks for that.

that's a great park
🔥🛹🤙👍Good job Zack
You should make a video on How To Do Back D's if you haven't already
Ces slide. Never knew they had a name been doing them for a bit now
Super fun!
Zack, what is your setup for bowl or transitions ?

Here was I thin king you couldn't get bad weather in Cali.
What park did you say this was? I’m going to SD in December and wanna skate parks like this
I tried a few CES(?) slides over the last few days. Very awkward. I’ll keep trying though.
My local skate park just has one big ass bowl that’s it and it’s the only skate park for like 100 miles
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Awesome vid, music track?

How is it like skating 215s on transition?
There's pros and cons, you can have a lot more truck to grind but tight turns can be tough.
I tried it for a while but switched back to my trusty 169's.
215 is a whole lotta truck. Tony Alva makes it look good though.
Would you say earlier the better for getting an empty park?
Always better! I like the AM session because it's not hot yet too ;)

My wifes brand ;) dropping today!
@@ZackDowdy I was wondering why it wasn't black or white. The wife always deserves an exception.

I can't either! It's my wife's companies hat :)
