    so true, smashing into kids that are just learning to skate is a full bummer. Gotta keep yer eyes open for sure.

    You should skate street! Learn the basics at your driveway or something similar then take it to the obstacles of the real street!

    ProDesigned in Texas. He makes some of the best knee and elbow pads you can find. They are more expensive than the typical ProTec pads in most skateshops, but well worth the investment.

    It's hard to break a habit once you get into it. The only way to "unlearn" pushing mongo is to practice pushing the other way. Remember, like everything with skateboarding, it might take you awhile to learn. Just take your time and be patient with yourself.

  • @LearnToSkateboard
    @LearnToSkateboard  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Absolutely. Check out some older skate videos from the 1970s in the first skateparks. That's the kind of size and shape of boards they used back then.

  • @LearnToSkateboard
    @LearnToSkateboard  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    That is Valley Park in Burbank. Great beginners park. Be sure to check the hours though. They are open at weird times. You don't want to go and find them closed.

    You might want to wait a little longer until you're pretty comfortable on your board. Once you're comfortable on your board you'll be able to work your way up to grinding along the coping :)

  • @LearnToSkateboard
    @LearnToSkateboard  12 ปีที่แล้ว

    At the beginning, Etnies in Lake Forest, California. For the main part of the video, Valley Park in Burbank, California.

    You will never find a good skateboard for $20. A cheap skateboard will cost you $60 and good skateboard costs about $120 or more. You can find some nice complete boards at SoCalSkateshop. Just look them up on Google. If you really want to learn about the parts and types of skateboards, watch the other chapters in these videos which teach about the parts and assembling a board. I'm glad you enjoyed the videos. I hope watching all of them will help a lot. Have fun skating!

  • @LearnToSkateboard

    Everyone learns at a different pace, so it might take months for some or weeks for others. The basic rule is this - Don't go to the skatepark until you feel confident in your board-control. If you constantly lose control of your board and it goes flying into other skaters, they're going to get pretty angry. Before you go to a skatepark, make sure you can ride and turn and stop with confidence.

  • @LearnToSkateboard

    Find out when the small one isn't as crowded. Usually first thing in the morning, parks are kind of empty. Or, go to the bigger park and just start out doing smaller tricks.

    so yesterday i went to a skatepark for the first time! my first dropin to a ramp with coping went amazingly. its so much fun, but i still cant knee slide. ive managed to stay standing when i fell off, im not doing anything that crazy. what sort of thing would be good to practice it on? also could you make a small video on some flip tricks? or at least shuvits since everyone needs those.

    I also was wondering if Amazon skateboards were good?? I found one for $33 by Andy Macdonald, is that okay??? I also watched all of your videos and they were great!! I espically loved the one about how to drop in and stuff.

  • @Thecrayzmapler
    @Thecrayzmapler 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    i push with my back foot. its really hard for me to push mongo regularly. ive been skating for like 1 year now and now when i try to push switch to do switch tricks i push mongo switch.
    in my own little theory you will probaly push regular when ur switch.

  • @chennanigans
    @chennanigans 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey do you know of any good and cheap skateboards? I have to buy it so it has to be reasonable not like $80. Maybe somewhere around $20-$50. I am also 13 if that matters (like what type/kind or how long the skateboard needs to be.) I am going to buy this before the summer so if you could reply ASAP it would be great! By the way I loved your video, it really inspired me. Thanks

    You never need to ollie if you don't want to. Skateboarding existed for over 20 years before the ollie was even invented.

    if you're not religious go sunday morning everybody will be at church or if you're new to the skating scene go to yard sales and get small ramps and set them up in your driveway that's what i do when i can't go to the park

  • @LearnToSkateboard
    @LearnToSkateboard  11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Kids in the 70s illegally snuck into back yards and drained pools to skate them. Now the city gives you a pool to ride and you don't because of a few broken bottles? Bring a broom and clean up the glass!

  • @giglomint3000
    @giglomint3000 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    You will never find a good board that is pre-made. You will have to go and have one custom made. I just got one last week for $103.00. Zumiez actually has packages, a silver, which is 89.99, gold is 99.99, and platinum is 105.99. In your situation, silver is the way to go. That's what I did.
