      2 Days? That’s amazing… first of all, welcome to skateboarding and second, for more that you think you might be starting late, you still have so much time in front of you. I’ll be 50 this year and I still learning everyday.
      Enjoy the flow! ✨👊🏼✨

    Bro, I feel you, mate! I've been skating for 10 years, and I still get scared of board slides. Next year, I'm going to master this trick (maybe even land a FS).

      Skateboarding is a mystery and we all have are weaknesses. You might not be as comfortable with board slides but I’m sure you have many other tricks under your belt. Good luck with the FS board slide. That’s a bloody cool trick and it’s definitely on my list as well.
      Let us know how you get on!

    Well done mate, Always good to get out of the comfort zone and exercise the fear “muscles” and remind us what it feels like to get stoked by a win 😉. This must be the first time we’re both in Brazil at the same time ? 😜 I hope youre having a nice time! Catch up with you soon, Have a happy new year 👊

      Hey Neil… feels great. It’s also amazing how your mind can play a huge part. I knew I had the two tricks I needed for this trick I just need to tell myself I could do it in order to get over the fear.
      Brazil… enjoy it my friend. Shame we won’t be able to meet up but I’m sure it will happens at some point.

      @ absolutely mate, capitalise on that feeling and use it to get the next trick before you forget what it’s like and keep repeating that and it will boost your progression massively 👍🏻 keep practicing the new learns too so they do t drop out of your trick bag. Enjoy your time in Brazil too I’ll see you again in London soon 👊🏼

    Well done! I am jealous of all your tricks! You have really good board control. I have only landed a halfcab boardslide twice in my entire life and that was about 5-6 years ago. You got it super quickly! 👏

      @@fd_skate thanks Magnus… if you can board slide and half cab, you can definitely do the HC board slide. The only think stopping is fear as it’s bloody scary at the beginning. You should give it another go. Starting almost at the end of the rail help me build confidence. Still work in progress for sure but I was happy to at least land a couple of tinny ones ☺️
      Still trying to land tre…. Too scared to commit. Saw that you did one… Do you have any tip? ✨👊🏼✨

      @@RonaldoBeatles I am probably the worst person to ask for advice when it comes to the tre flip lol. My path towards that trick has been veeeery crooked. For me the biggest hurdle (I think) was balance. Once the balance started to improve, the trick followed. And to get that balance, it's "just" a matter of practicing. That being said, I still have a far way to go before having that trick in my bag. Good luck with it!

      @@fd_skate sometimes I’m able to scoop the full 360° rotation but I don’t think I can stay up in the air for that long. To be very honest… a part from the skate Mafia micro board, I never even committed to try to land one that’s how chicken I am 😂

      @fd_skate 26 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      @@RonaldoBeatles I know many tutorials that put great emphasis on jumping really high to allow the board to complete the rotation under you, but I have friends that can land the tre flip without jumping much at all. Instead the have a technique where the board is rotating and really fast. A lot of these tricks are difficult because we imagine them to be super difficult. The mind is s powerful adversary sometimes. Best of luck with it man!

      I find FS boardslide so cool and very scary also, specially when there is not enough wax ouch 😩 That’s probably my next challenge once I get back. If you have any tips on fs board slide let me know… that will be welcome but for now… I need a bit of Brazilian heat ☀️☀️☀️

    • @AdventuresInSkateboarding
      @AdventuresInSkateboarding 26 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @RonaldoBeatles focus on good posture. Land tall with shoulds above hips and knees bent. The same as any board slide, but any lean will send you or your board back behind you. Posture is everything.

    • @RonaldoBeatles
      @RonaldoBeatles  26 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      @ cheers Anthony. Totally agree… in fact a lot of what we do wrong in general… comes from bad posture. I had a good slam last time I tried so I’ll go easy on this one but I’ll give definitely give it a try next time! ✨

      The more I skate the more I realise how skateboarding is all about the right mind set. I broke it into a few steps on then went for it.

      @@SkateboardingWithYerDa hey… thanks man. I bought this rail from Decathlon because as I really wanna get over this fear of board slides. I really think the main cause for this is just not doing it enough. It’s a start!
      I’m heading to João Pessoa which is northeast of Brazil. Very hot at this time of the year but I’m not taking my board. Its predominantly a beach holiday!
      Back to France at the end of January so I’ll be taking a couple of weeks break from YT which is probably a good thing 😀
