Honestly of the BEST tutorial styles I’ve seen on YT with aggressive tricks/blading! The whole it’s reps and unfortunately falls and shit are a part of the game is toooooo true It’s still SKATING at the end of the day and it weeds out the weak 😂 it’s not for everybody So no matter if you’re working on grinding spinning toe rolls transition skating etc etc best thing you can do is put those man hours in!! Let’s see some more vids like this from you!
I've said this before about your tutorials and I'll say it again. For someone who is really good at skating you do a great job of breaking skills down for beginners. I love that you wear protective gear even though you are clearly good enough to choose not to. Keep up the great content!
Perfect timing...I was already planning on going to Kona tomorrow and trying coping grinds. They scare the crap out of me but I have to learn for mini ramp fun time
Was working on topsides on coping earlier today. Great video man! Needed those reminders. My dumbass skipped stalling and thought just going for frontside sweat stances was a good idea and learned the hard way a few times. 😅
Props for helmet advice. Great tutorial. I was never good at grinding coping when I skated. More of a fun box guy myself. But like you said with repetition things become more comfortable. 🔥🔥
Oh, man, one thing i've never really been able to do, is to get decent air, on a quarter... i'm not the greatest skating transition. Great video, as usual. Keep up the great work, and content.
I thought this was a great tutorial! But as a fairly new agg inliner (a year and a bit) I wanted to highlight something that was slightly different for me. I completely agree with you that you should learn most grinds on a ledge or a rail first before trying on coping. The big exception for me is H block tricks. I learned frontsides and backsides on coping first, in fact they were the first grinds I learned on anything. And I can only do front and back unities on coping, trying to work up to them on rails and ledges. But that’s just my experience and I started out skating a lot of mini ramps with quad skaters so that might have informed it a bit!
it took me forever to learn soul stalls. then i learned i had to have my left foot forward and step first on the frontside foot b4 i lock my right soul on. i also learned this on a mini hp. cuz any thing taller caused me to bail. then all the soul grinds i did on street started translating making it easier. easing into the coping as if it were a rail. this might be some additional advice for someone who is still trying to learn soul on coping
Thank you for this! I’ve been struggling with this mainly because I jump too early 😕. Took a bad spill too because I didn’t listen to my body when it was telling me “you’re done!” 🤣. Anyway excellent tutorial and keep the videos coming! 👊🏽
I would love a tutorial how to pump on a mini or quater pipe so you can attempt the grinds. Or more like how to move left and rigth, inside of the ramp. If I rotate on the same spot I am fine but as soon as I try to go from one side to the other and attempt a grind things go wrong I lose my speed, I fail a grind then I can not go to the other end and I am stuck in the middle.
my grinding of anything But coping is awful. My local park has amazing bowls and a bad street section. So I learned grinds in a bowl and really struggle on anything else.
the only park in my city in the UK (big city too) recently banned rollerbladers and quad-riders (quaders?) due to the skateboarders 'not being happy' with having a slippy foot, or some such wood-pusher nonsense. Is this a thing in the states? Skateboarders forcing rollerbladers out because they're the majority? And yet this park still allows scooters, ffs. I just don't get it - just ban wax if it get's that bad surely? Instead they've just alienated a re-emerging sport in a really off-putting and condescending way. Had a super passive aggressive convo with the owner - he was just like 'ah nahh, we're happy doing what we're doing' blah blah, was infuriating. Only other decent skate park is 20 some miles away (yes yes, I know that's nothing to you american folk but I don't own a car etc). So yeah when I'm a MILLIONAIRE I'm going to build rollerblade and quad only skateparks, and f it, even put some stuff in them especially for skateboarders to not be able to use - each of these dream parks will be housed in a completely glass-encased air-conned luxury room, just to really hammer it home to these plank-w*nkers that we still exist.
I went to Kona skatepark a while back and they had very large signs on the mini ramp “NO WAX”. Apparently it was heavily enforced. Funny thing is that that park is a sad ghost town now. :/. I feel for you
I won...I'm a winner. Seriously though, thank you Ben.

Great advice! 👍 Certainly about not letting skateboarders see us waxing the coping. 😄
Awesome skating bruh!! It's great seeing you with the helmet 🤘🤘😊💗
Awesome advice! This will help the vert game for sure 🙏💛💚💙💯

Thank you enki.
I love that your knack for explaining things simply and fluently shines in your tutorials. You make it relatable. Great job Ben. Is that a new helmet?
Thanks bill! Nope I’ve actually had that helmet for a while now.
Great video!
I smashed my head in a concrete bowl at my local skatepark. Thank god for helmets 😱
Oh, man, one thing i've never really been able to do, is to get decent air, on a quarter... i'm not the greatest skating transition. Great video, as usual. Keep up the great work, and content.
appreciate that Anton!
Great video, excellent advice and a strong meme game
Thanks jd. 🤝

Me too...just realized how early I jump after seen this.
Thank you for this tutorial, I have been trying to find a good tutorial but with this video my search ended
Świetne porady, dzięki, na pewno wykorzystam.

I’ll add that one to the list!
my grinding of anything But coping is awful. My local park has amazing bowls and a bad street section. So I learned grinds in a bowl and really struggle on anything else.
Late reaction , BUT does this also work on freestyle skates?
For soul grinds : turn your body in the direction your going to. You’re ankle thanks you 😉
I let the ramp take me....and I now sell propane and propane accessories in Arlen, Texas. plz send help.
No grind shoes in my size😭
