My pennyboard just came in so I’m binge watching to learn :)
Yo that's fun to hear you just got one! Have a blast cruising around with it!
Same
I’ve had mine for a while now but I just don’t get the time to ride it
@@alanaparsons7371 I got mine yesterday
same :)
Can anyone else feel the weather in this video?? I sure as hell can and it feels so damn good man
Been a month after watching this, I can confidently say that now I can cruise around my neighbourhood smoothly. Still working on going downhill and running start
Lesssss gooooo
My pennyboards coming tomorrow and i’m too excited because i tried my cousins pennyboard and it felt AMAZING, so i bought one and i can’t wait so i’m watching this video
Awesome! Hope you’ve been enjoying riding it!
@@TheTylerRossmann Yeah I am, thanks!
I wish I could like this video 10 times. It's simple and perfect.
Appreciate it Mikki!
Finally started using my penny and I'm really excited✨
Yo that’s awesome to hear Mohammad! Have a blast cruising around 🤘🏼
I love how he is taking time to reply to everyone 👍
Ayyy you’re the first person to notice 🤙🏼
Thanks for making this video. Was so clear and inspiring!
Thanks!!!!! The best video i ever see about begining!!!!
thanks for such a detailed lesson on how to ride a penyboard, I learned how to ride it in 1 day and it's REALLY COOL, thanks again
Great to hear! Thanks for letting me know & keep having fun with it!
awesome video, thanks for the tips, I have been doing this from 6 days and absolutely loving cruising around on my penny board🧿😊
I bought a $4 dollar no brand penny board a few days ago and I'm still learning to ride it, I've been able to push and get on it with both feet without falling and also being able to turn left and right by leaning just from practicing in my room on the carpet and in the living room of my apartment which is wide enough to practice on but not long enough to fully practice on, but I'm thankful I found your videos, it's really giving me the confidence and knowledge to continue learning how to ride my board. Hopefully 1 day it becomes second nature to me
Finally I found the best video to start with my penny thank you man
Yo Omar! Glad you found it helpful & best of luck riding!
hi man, thanks for the advice. been practicing this for a while and now Im getting used to it.
Hey Anang, good to hear! Hope you’re having fun with it
Ty sooo much, I just got my first pennyboard after wanting it for a long time and because of you I am already doing pretty good
Yo that’s awesome to hear Dominik!! Best of luck learning & keeping having fun with it!
I just got a cruiser board and im literally so hyped to learn how to ride it!
So fun to hear! Hope it’s going well for you 🤘🏼
Planning on buying a penny board again! Excited!
That’s awesome!! You’ll have a blast with it 🤘🏼
best tutorial ever!!
Yo I’m pumped to hear you enjoyed it & thought it was helpful! Happy riding 🤙🏼
Great video dude! I was having trouble not stopping completely whenever I tried to pick up speed again, hopefully I'll be able to overcome that using your advice!
Thank you & best of luck! Happy riding 🤙🏼
I watched some tutorials and this one is by far the best. I really struggled with my feet when switching between pushing and riding. now I know where to improve. thanks a lot
Glad to hear it was helpful! Thanks for letting me know & best of luck out on your board🤘🏼
Thank you so much for the help
Absolutely 🤘🏼
Man thanks! I try to bail on my longboard as you said but I didn’t run fast enough … so I fell of and broke my iwatch
Now I have a penny board for cruise around in trips ! Thanks for your tips
Hope you’re feeling a little more comfortable riding!
Thanks for this video, i learned the basic move using penny board☺️
Glad to hear! Happy riding 🤘🏼
Thank you so much for not sounding cocky/pretentious or tired while explainin because that kinda discouraged me even tho it did help me make my mind and I am still gonna buy it toda(Yay!). You were SO much more helpful and I'm very grateful for it. Like, really really. And I get it, that the other dude already knew it all but it was also pretty obvious that he himself didn't enjoy riding a pennyboard, but your excitement is easy to pick and how you want others to experience it too, and that is exactly why I wanted to learn: The fun and the traveling, also feeling the wind in my face (I have always loved that) while watching yhe scenery. So let's hope I don't fall too much because I don't wanna get too scared but oh well, that's how we learn everything, don't we? And I like the metaphor of falling and getting up and not giving up, keep on trying 'til we can enjoy the ride just like with life.
Wish me luck! x
Yo Suki, I appreciate your comment a ton! It always is exciting for me to hear when someone gets their first Penny board and begins to ride. I was at the point one time so I get it can be scary to fall (and trust me I have had my fair share of falls while riding). The metaphor you mentioned about getting back up each time is great; that's how we learn, grow, and get better. So I definitely wish you the best, and have a BLAST with it too!
cool video Tyler ! ! ! ! !
Thanks Michal! Glad you dig it 🤘🏼
I just got my penny board so excited to go on it 😁
Let’s go!! Hope you’re having a blast with it 🤙🏼
well done man!
Thank you 🤙🏼
My penny board just arrived, im kinda scared and excited at the same time but definetely i will try all the advices you gave us in the video. Thank you so much
I’m a experienced rider as I’ve skated penny boards longboards and regular skateboards this video is great for beginners trying to learn how to ride good job man 👍
Awesome to hear from a fellow boarder! Thanks a ton 🤘🏼
Came back from the beach yesterday after a week long vacation. While I was there I picked up one from a beach store. Never been on one but I’ve skateboarded when I was younger so this should be interesting. 💪🏻
Have a blast with it!
I'm 34 and I'm just starting to learn skateboarding...I use 22in Penny. ✌
Great video though, I'll use this as my guide.
Glad to hear that Valerie!! It's always fun for me to hear people getting into the Penny lifestyle 🤘🏼
Question: I'm 40 years old. I learned snowboarding at 36 and just bought a penny board to help my wobbly legs stay in boarding shape in summer. Should I also lean on my front leg when riding a penny board like you do in snowboarding?
Thank you helped me so much ☺️
Absolutely 🤘🏼
I have a board coming I cannot wait to see what colour or colours mine comes in you have some cool videos up by the way
Great to hear you’re getting a board too! Thanks for watching 🤙🏼
really helpful. beginner here. thanks for this
Ubetcha Louie, have fun riding 🤘🏼
Great video!! My board is so wobbly I need all the tips I can get! I’ve gotta work on my balance! Thanks for this!🙌🏼
Glad it helped & absolutely! Let me know if you’d like anymore tips. I started a new penny board channel called “Penny Board Tyler” and will be putting out more content there
You might need to tighten your bushings.
@@TheTylerRossmann yo just subbed to ur other channel thanks for this I'm getting my penny board in 10 days so I needed this alot.have a nice one bro

Good Tut.
Just bought a penny board! Same as yours actually. I have been watching a bunch of videos getting ready to ride for the first time
Love to hear!! Have a blast riding 🤘🏼
Tysm I had so my trouble and fear turning !
Absolutely! Hope you've been getting over that fear and are enjoying riding more now!
amen god is great🙏🏻✝️❤️
Bro that was so good i acualy god my first pennyboard so this helps a lot❤
Glad to hear!
Practicing riding a little bit inside and really was going a moderate walking speed and you said "BAIL!" and at that moment I lost balance and bailed lol. Just funny timing
Ohemgee you were riding inside?! Funny story
@@TheTylerRossmann hahah yeah, ive got some open space where I can learn things and not quite embarass myself. Lol
Hi bro good work keep it up
Thanks 🤘🏼 if you want more penny content, I made a separate channel solely dedicated to it called “Penny Board Tyler”
Very helpful. Now i wanna go pratice more. Much excited to learn all of the fundamentals so that I can go downhill
Absolutely! Take it slow & work your way up. Going down hills are SUPER fun so best of luck progressing 🤘🏼
More videos pleaseee 😊
This was super useful. I don’t think I have a penny board but this was still extremely useful. I didn’t even know I wasn’t bending my knees and that helped me so much
Yo glad to hear! Thanks for your comment, and if you decide to get a Penny board, I hope you have a blast with it!
@@TheTylerRossmann forgot to respond to this but yea it is a penny board. It’s super fun riding around campus, and it’s thanks to you. I’ve even taught my friends how to ride. (tho I don’t know how to do tricks. All within good time) thanks man
Nice video! I'm trying to go to the hills, but I'm scared :(
It definitely takes time to ease into downhill riding so don’t worry to much at the start. Start slow & keep having fun!
nice Video✌️
Thank you! 🤙🏼
Thanks
You’re welcome
Nice 👍🏽 😁
Thanks 🤙🏼
mano muito irado as dicas sou brasileiro e sou seu fã
THANK YOU!! do you have any tips for slowing down or do you just have to stop n push again?
For sure!
There’s 3 ways you can slow down/stop:
1) Hop off (kinda like the bail at the end), which is the easiest to do.
2) Carve/ride out your speed by turning back-and-forth till you slow down (works best on flat ground)
3) Drag your back foot on the ground beside you (which is the most challenging because it requires the most balance). This method will also wear out the sole of your shoe over time.
Thanks buddy
👍
No problem 👍
i had my penny bored for ever and now i can ride it 😁
Have fun riding!
best video
I appreciate it!
i found a penny board on the ground that still looks in good shape and i want to learn skateboarding (cruising) this is a big help. lmao
Awesome find! Have fun 🤘🏼
Hi! I do t know if you can help me with this but when i try to go straight on my board i turn right?
U RTHE BETS THX SO MUHC but i am really shy though to practice
Best of luck! Hope you’re having a blast with it! 🤘🏼
nice vid
Thanks Paula 🤙🏼
Nice vid, what helmet are you wearing? I like it.
It’s a Thousand Helmet! I actually made a video when I got it here: th-cam.com/video/toNQoN8nRr4/w-d-xo.html
Nice video! Does your front foot ever start to cramp during a ride?
It does not; if yours is cramping, it's most likely due to you clenching your toes/foot while you ride. Slowly work on riding while being more relaxed in your stance
I learnt how to ride in a day with penny board....teach someone who's learning how to control the board because when I was riding I noticed that when I try to push the board will just turn on It's own before one would even put his second leg on
If you are turning as you push, that means your front foot is putting pressure on either the left or right side of the board when you’re pushing (I.e. your foot is not likely centered). If you keep your front foot in the middle of the board facing forward, you shouldn’t run into that problem
I just bought my first Penny board at Zumiez today. I prefer to do board cruising with great turning and smooth wheels. I use to skateboard, but I didn't like having to deal with rough wheels. I never learned how to do any tricks (besides an ollie) so there wasn't much to use with the skateboard. And cruising on it is not that good with bad bearings.
Gotcha, yeah I absolutely love cruising with Penny’s - super fun and travel-able too. Have fun with it!
Also consider a cruiser for longer distance, I run a 35 in long deck with a kick tail and I have some standard 150mm trucks and bones bearings and 60mm 78a slime ball cruisers and it goes long distance on rough or urban terrain
you should make a video on how to pump on penny boards
Thanks for your feedback Ahmed; I'll look to make a video about this on my Penny Board Tyler channel in the future
I have mine piney bord but I had it for a really long time when I got it I Try to ride it but just got scard but I really wanna learn how to ride it to wear I am okay with so yeah
Question, before watching this video I got used to riding with my foot at the bottom of my penny board then I put my other foot in the front, how do I get used to doing the opposite?
That's called pushing mongo, which is common for beginners to do...You just want to work on riding with your pushing foot back, which takes practice, patience, and time. Best of luck!
This is great! I learned a lot, but how to stop?
5 Best Ways to Slow Down and Stop on your Board

I like video.
I like comment
Awsome video, I need to buy a better penny board because the one I have now is a third party brand, but I cant wait to take it down the hills in my area 😎👍
Thanks Giles, and absolutely! Cruising down hills is the bomb so I hope you can get one 💣
Do you think a penny board is ideal for not so smooth roads? Also, how do you deal with rounded speed bumps? Thanks!
I would recommend a nickel board over a Penny board for going over un-smooth/bumpy surfaces. The wheels are further apart opposed to the Penny board, and the nickel also has a larger surface area (meaning you’ll be more stable on a nickel board)
Hey tyler! I just got my first penny board! Do you have any tips or tricks to go over speed bumps, curbs, or big cracks?
That’s fun to hear!
I would recommend avoiding all those things when you’re first starting at as you’re extremely likely to fall (and fall hard potentially). If you’re in a spot with them, the best thing to do is kind of jump yourself up (slightly) when you go over a crack. For a speed bump, it’s about shifting your weight to go a little lower (aka have more knee bend). For curbs, it’s similar to going over a crack, where you want to kind of jump yourself up a little (again, not the board - jump your body) to allow the board to continue to move forward
@@TheTylerRossmann Thanks Tyler!! :DD
Overall great video, but I think he forgot to mention how to stop when riding besides bailing, you are not gonna bail every time you want to stop, so is there a correct and easy way to stop besides stepping with one foot on ground because it destroys the sole of the shoes pretty quickly, and I am a beginner so I have a small fear of pushing the tail to stop the board because I am still learning how to distribute my weight between tail and front side of the board.
Thanks for your comment Shokha!
This video is geared towards beginners who usually don’t go that fast because they are learning the basics (so I recommend reducing speed and stepping off like I did throughout the video).
You are also correct; there are other ways to stop on your board, but those are mostly for intermediate riders who feel comfortable going faster (which gives me an idea to make another video)!
Generally, I don’t recommend the tail drag because the tail on a Penny Board is way too small to do this without falling. I also don’t recommend the toe drag because it destroys your shoe & you have a higher likelihood of falling if you are not balanced well.
I would recommend “pumping the break” as a means to get off where you slow down by putting a foot to the ground then brining it up (then repeat).
Tuning 4:50
would you recommend the 22 or 27 inch ? thinking about getting one (i longboard), but im not sure yet
The only question you need to ask yourself is: how often do you travel? If you like to visit other places and plan on bringing your board, get the 22inch. If you don’t travel often or think you’ll only want to cruises around your current area/neighborhood, the 27inch Nicke Board is my best recommendation. It’s got a larger surface area, better turning/carving & still has good speed
Hi, i can ride my board pretty well just the problem is the penny board is going 1 direction (my left) and it wont turn
Hard to say what wrong, but it’s not a rider issue (I.e you’re only shifting hyoid weight one way), then it will most likely be tight trucks and/or tight wheels
I know how to do an Ollie also can u do tutorials to do stuff like tricks
Great question! So penny boards aren’t necessarily meant for tricks, but I’ve gotten this question asked a ton so I’ll likely make a video about them on my other channel “Penny Board Tyler”
Any tips on riding a 22.5 inch penny board
Lolz This entire video is about that
Hey brother am starting on Sunday
LET’S GO!!!
@@TheTylerRossmann yeah!
guys what size of penny board u recommend for adults. thanks in advance
It always comes down to experience & comfortability.
If you have previous riding experience, any Penny skateboard should be just fine. If you don’t have an previous experience, however, I would recommend the 27-inch Nickel or 36-inch longboard (if you only want to cruise) as those are the most stable.
If you’d want to learn tricks, the 32-inch skateboard would be a better pick then
👍
Can you please say the size of yours and I am really stuck between 22 and 27' Im 14 which one do you recommend?
Mine is a 22inch. It doesn’t matter that much about your age; more so about your riding experience. If you’re a new rider, I’d typically recommend the 27inch because of the larger surface area (which means you’ll be more stable). If you plan on traveling a lot with your board though, I’d recommend the 22inch because it’s easier to fit in a backpack.
Thank you very much!!
Hi! I dont know if you can help me but when i try to go straight on my board, i turn right? Thanks!
If its not a problem with the board (a cheap one with crappy trucks) then you need to steer the board with small movements to stay straight as you may be leaning to one side, too much toes or heals.

How much do you weigh and how much can a penny board hold love the vids and keep going
Also I ride a regular or trick bored doses that translate over ?
A Penny board can hold up to 220lbs (100kg). If you’re referring to a regular skateboard where you can do ollies, etc., the main difference will be in the deck size (surface area of the board). It might be a little different feet position because it’s smaller, but having familiarity with riding helps overall. Also, the wheels will most likely be larger on your Penny, which means cruising may be smoother
@@TheTylerRossmann thank you so much online it said it could only hold 110 lbs but I didn't believe that so I asked you
Im having trouble turning my front foot sideways, when i turn my foot i just loose my balance. Any tips?
Take a deep breath and do a slow little pivot towards the direction. Hope it helps!
Agree with taking a breath! If you’re still having trouble, I’d recommend taking your board inside onto either carpet or grass (so it won’t move on you). Stand on it, and practice the pivot here from a stationary sport. Once you get the physically feeling of this down, try it again on a flat surface
Where can I get that red hoodie ur wearin?
I got in when I was studying abroad in New Zealand!
@@TheTylerRossmann got it I have to go to New Zealand

🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Are you scared of going to fast down hill? Is it scary the first time?
Progress slowly with rising steeper hills. I was nervous the first time just like everyone else. But working your way up to slightly larger hills builds confidence, and if you keep doing it, you’ll be able to ride hills better.
i feel better pushing with my front foot is that bad
That’s called pushing “Mongo,” which is common for beginners to get in the habit of. Generally, it’s not the best practice of as it is less stable/can throw your balance off
I can't turn right sid
are you goofy or regular footed?
what size is your penny?
22inch!
How can you Ollie with a penny board
You normally don’t, unless you have previous experience with ollies on a regular skateboard. Penny boards are meant for cruising more than actual tricks. This said, it’s still possible to Ollie, it’s just typically more challenging to do because the tail is so short
Is this board a 22' or 27' ?
it's a 22', the 27' is referred to as a nickel board
I wanna know what type of penny board he has
It’s a 22inch Penny Skateboard
I am in my room
I am also in my room as I write this comment
What kind of helmet is this?
Thousand helmet - I’ve made a video getting/unboxing it last year on my channel
The real or fake brand?
The one I ride here is real
i still dont have one!!! sad
You’ll have to try and get one this year! They’re SO fun!
They’re dirt cheap online get one
@@Ronin-kk4bt the fake one r really cheap
btw i got the real one
@@ahhhbb4369 yeah exactly don’t get the expensive ones they’re pretty much the same just with better bearings. Get a cheap one then get some reds
Kinda sad to know it doesn't do well over broken pieces of ground
It's not that sad if you have a smoother place to ride. That's what boards are meant to ride on; if you only have gnarly roads, a longboard may be better for you.
🥲The real challenge is getting the Penny Board🥲
You’ll get one one day! Something to ask for a birthday or holiday
@@TheTylerRossmann
Aww thanks! Thanks for the advice! I love your channel! God bless u!
Goofy foot gang
Im gonna ask my mom to order one but im the one who has to pay TvT
Maybe ask for your birthday?
