      still one of the best beginner progressions ive seen on ricky's channel. i'm so glad you guys got in contact. been having fun watching you and the commentary. it's helping a lot. so nope, not watching it to laugh, tho i laugh with you. it's just super relatable and you seemed to get really stoked by it later and that energy is infectious. (i know this was a year ago but i just started getting into this.)

    I'm documenting my start as a skateboarder on YT as well, and the hardest thing about skateboarding is mostly seeing how smooth experienced skaters and their tricks are, and just accepting you're still at the foot of the mountain. Gotta learn how to walk before you run

      Don't worry, you'll get there eventually if you stick with it. But I know what you mean. I had the same feeling when I was getting into it for the first time. It's even worse now though because I stopped skating for several years so I can do only basic tricks and not even every try. It's frustrating when I know how much better I was at one point and I can't just get it all back instantly. Just yesterday I was at skatepark, most people there were killing it and I almost couldn't even kickflip on flat ground 🙄

    When I first started I was about 14 and its super easy the younger you are. I just picked it up and kept practicing and finally didn't go anywhere without riding it for like 5 years. I could do 360's, 180's, not frontside! I wish! So once I picked up my son's skateboard when I was about 58, I'm 64 now but at 58 I totally bit the dust, broke my phone and everything in public! They say once a skater, always a skater! I hope they're right! Sure doesn't feel like it! Ha! You got this young lady! Bless your heart.

    As long as you keep getting on the board, despite your fear of how you get on the board and the anxiety of the culture around that, is a big win. She ended up actually having fun even though it was a "content" challenge. You land your first ollie and the hype becomes very very real.

    I wish I could get a park near me in dover-foxcroft Maine so my 48 oldfart @$$ could get back into it... I have to travel to few hours away to get to a park.. but I wanted to teach my younger kids or at least try to teach them how to . I have 2 adults kids from my first ex wife and 3 little kids with my 3rd ex wife that I got custody of our kids.. I have like over 100 skateboards from original 80s and 90s wide boards and few popsicle boards and some reissue and bootleg boards. But I collect

      can still do a lot on flat ground? maybe build a small quarter, get a few rails, maybe a box, we set this stuff up on our street/sidewalk all the time when we were younger and didnt have cars to get to parks

    I hate that is skaters have such a bad stigma. 99.9% of us really enjoy helping new skaters. I realize they look at us doing it our entire lives and think it is easy. Then they try it. I will stop my session to coach a noob anytime. I end up doing what I want in between and make someone feel confident and comfortable. I really hope they progress and have as much fun as we have trained our bodies to do also.
