Im a more mature skater (42) thats just started about 7 weeks ago, love watching these clips as they really do help. I try and skate every day even if its just a 15 min skate to work and back. I skate parks when i can as much as i can and i even got myself another deck just for carpet. I'm totally hooked
Yo, I hear that….. I’m also 42 and just today I pulled my board out of storage and skated for the first time in over 20 years. Felt crazy to be skating again but I got 2 or 3 tricks haha - gotta relearn everything else and we have no ramps here just flat land
I just turned 30 and I am into skating for like 3 months now. I feel Like I did so much progress, while I still cant do these „cool“ Tricks yet, its so fun! Keep on and be prepared for injuries 😅
I started 3 months ago, I’m 28, defs never too late I feel we have the balance and know our body’s a lot better then when I tried to skate at 12 and quit after a couple weeks
People always made fun of me for having Walmart boards as a kid. It took me like 6 years to learn how to Ollie and one day when I was a teenager a guy at the skatepark gave me a complete flip board. Still one of the best gifts I've ever received. It did take some getting used to a board that rolls more than 5 ft and didn't weigh a ton. I wouldn't say it helped me be a better skater but it definitely brought my confidence up and that helped me learn so much faster
3 and 6 really resonate with me, and I'll tell you why. I fell in love with skateboarding as a child in the 90s. Growing up, my heroes were Rodney Mullen and Bam Margera. Over time, I discovered Ritchie Jackson, Andy Anderson, Ishod Wair, Rob Roskopp and Mike V. So, as you can imagine, my style was a weird hybrid of street and freestyle, with bonelesses and wallplants thrown in for good measure. Throughout my entire skating life, people would ridicule me for the freestyle and 'circus' tricks, which forced me to work harder on my flatland, and learning various things such as Fakie Sex Change flips and so on. People would make fun of me a lot, probably because I'd practically whitewash them in games of SKATE. These days, I'm a bit too fat and ill to skate, which is why I took up fingerboarding. Hopefully one day, I will make a full recovery so I am able to ride again, despite my age.
Great video! I’ve been at an intermediate block for years now. My board control is okay, I’m great at kickflips and boardslides, I can drop into most quarter pipes, but I’ve felt like I’m at a ceiling for a long time. Your tactic of learning 100 tricks a year is inspiring and your overall mentality towards progression resonates with me.
Dude I am a skater from the late eighties to mid ninties! I was off the Board for Years, now I am 45 Years old and started again! I like your Content a lot specially this Video because after Years of not skating and being Older Fear is a Big Thing 🤣 Back in the Days we've done very crazy shit on our Boards but since I started again I kinda hold myself back a little bit. Great Video 🤘 Greetings from Germany
@@StanleyTulipProductionsLTD get the Tortoise Pads for your old hips an ass. I'm 45 and can take some big falls when I wear'm. We got big concrete parks here in Portland Oregon US.
I like your videos, they are really helpful. I'm 40, I've been skating for a year and I have no talent, but I'm slowly getting better and I'm really enjoying it. Videos like this motivate me to stick with it, so thank you for that.
I'm 17, I started skating like 3 months ago, i have hydrocephalus, so trying to convince my parents to let me skate was very difficult, but now i have a helmet that doesn't fit, and it's the largest size that S1 owns. But i love skating hope to get better and gain enough confidence and persuasion skills so i can go to the skatepark sometime.
@@EEJAnimations I was born with an excessive amount of water in my head, I got it removed with surgery, and now it is very difficult to wear hats and helmets bc of my enlarged head
@samuelhoffman5477 so far I haven't, also the weather around me is either really rainy or too hot outside for anything so trying to find time to share while also going to work and school is a little bit difficult but I'm trying to keep up with it
I'll be turning 30 soon. Haven't Skated in about 13 years... I stopped because I snapped my right arm because I never learned how to fall correctly... One of the most important skills to learn. I want to start again. Will definitely try out a video diary for my tricks. So glad we've got all these people to help us out today. I didn't have this back then. Thanks for the video Dan.
I feel you bro.. 20 yrs ago ive got fracture in my arm when i was just starting playing skateboard due to lack of fundamemtals.. Now im 36 yrs old start to skate again.😅😅
I'm 50... haven't been on a board in over 30 years due blowing up my wrist...it scared me so bad I gave it up...now I'm back on a board and it feels really good 👍❤and I suck...but it's great exercise for me..still in decent shape 😂 neighbors do look at me kinda funny though 😅
I'm 52 and broke my ankle in a pool while getting back into it in my 30's. Now I am building a mini ramp and trying to get over the fear of doing it again. An ankle brace is mandatory, and definitely not trying to do any flip tricks
You aint lyin about small cracks/"ledges" in the concrete being skatera worst enemy. I skated as a teen from 2001 to 2004, then picked back up in 2009. My younger cousin had started skating, and one day skating with him i thought, "Let me show him how its REALLY done." I went to do a simple sideways powerslide, like id done a million times before. I pushed up to mach speed and started skidding the back wheels around to slide. What i didnt notice was underneath me, the pavement had a tiny "dip" which created the smallest drop in height. As i turned my body to do the slide, that dip cause my front foot to come off the board and contact the pavement while my body was still turning(still at mach speed) I heard a pop and i fell over. I looked down at my left ankle, and it was facing the WRONG way.... whoops I broke and dislocated my ankle, and ended up with screws and plates holding it together. That pretty much got me off a board for the next 10 years. Until now Im seriously considering getting back into it. In my older age, i really need something to become more active outdoors to get myself in better shape. I briefly considered mountain bikes, but I dont have a connection to that like I did to skating. I think if I invest in some good safety gear, ankle and knee braces, and dont ollie down stairs and loading docks like i did at age 14(and NO powerslides!!!) and just focus on cruising/some small curb and manny pad skating, I should be fine. If you read all that, thanks, and thank you for making this video, its helping me psych myself up to get back on board!
i absolutely love what you’re doing for the skate community and your whole vibe (especially as i’m english so your voice just feels more familiar to me than say vl skate or smth so yh thanks for being awesome
Love your attitude... I'm 52 and just built my childhood cruiser powell ripper. I didn't like you talking about injuries but I needed to hear it. I don't wakeboard anymore cause I can't resist throwing flips and body can't take it anymore but I still throw a few different flips behind the boat on my sitdown hydrofoil. I'm hoping to learn basic skateboard tricks before getting hurt lol
for the second last tip (trainers) as a little kid i’d always skate on grass so my board wouldn’t move under me, that helped me get my first ollie and pop shuv
Well dam You were lucky at £30 for a complete When I was a kid and started in the early to mid 90s You could only buy a complete built deck and they started at £100. I was in the same boat and grew up poor so I had zero chance of ever getting one bought for me so I got a paper round and a weekend job on the local market saved my money and bought a santa cruise complete. Great vid as usual
I think he is not talking about completes like Santa Cruz. I would assume he means like those cheap Walmart 30€ Skateboards, that nearly break if you stand on them.
@@fabi___n5277 you can get a decent £30 complete these days from Element. There's nothing wrong with them. I bought one to come back to skating, took it to a mini and was able to skate it fine. It was too small for me so I bought a heathen shaped but I would recommend it to anyone who is unsure about skating and dropping silly money on overpriced trucks and wheels
I just bought a complete off Amazon 2 weeks ago for $35, I think that's similar to £30 ish. I like the way it looks, it's so lightweight and rolls really great. It don't have to be fancy, just has to do the job
I’m 22 and it’s my first week being (seriously) on a skateboard. I bought a cheap one from target just to practice lol. Idk why but I have a feeling for just bombing shit. Hitting huge ramps and landing on the ground, huge drops, and yeah whatever is there. I’d always do parkour growing up so I know how to land/jump off things. I’ll let y’all know in 3 years😂
Fr im a beginner and ur videos have helped me alot w my confidence and learning tricks tysm skating practically saved my life and u rlly helped get me into it
What's really helped me the most is other people at the skate park. Either watching them skate to see how they do it, or asking people for help. Having someone with you to show you what to do, try out your board so they know how it works, watch you skate, tell you what you're doing wrong, and hype you up, really helps
I love everything about skating I skate mini ramp, bowls, flat ground, street and the one thing I can say is skating is about consistency if you wanna get better put more time into it
When I moved from a 8.25 with 149 to a 8.75 with 159 I glot alot better at skating, even my flip tricks. Just more room for me to land, more confidence, etc. But everything else is spot on!!
I remember seeing Almost Round 3 and Haslam doing a Blunt Stall on top of a skateboard. It blew my mind and the rest of his part was of course blowing my mind even more. But talking about seeing shit that just opens you up for creativity that really made me realize "of course there are no rules! HAVE FUN!".
Also, just tightening wheels without the bearing spacer makes them sit hard AF. You don't need any fancy extra things for that. Or if you have some washers the size of the bearings you can even replace the bearings with them to make a non-rollable setup.
Me and a friend started skating and the first other person I met with a skateboard I'm still best mates with him. That was in 1986. I'm old but still skate but not enough
Keeping motivation is somewhat easier when you have a weird progression, I learned to drop in and air out before Ollie. Haven’t put the board down for 2 months since stepping on it
I practice on turf and it helps a lot I got kick flips and pop shuvs and the one foot shuv down I’m tryna get the big spin now and move up to landing while moving
The other day some kid said “this one doesn’t drop in though” so I dropped in 3 times. The next day I had tunnel vision going there, that’s just not what I do man lol. Not for now anyway!
Picking up on the pebble and landing right , I was cruising on my skateboard a month ago just chilling , In my complex theirs this really busted up side walk so the cracks are as big as the wheels but you can go over them if your going fast , So I decided to go on the side walk and when I got to the busted sidewalk I was just speeding up but my wheel got caught in a pebble and since the busted up side walk is broken and stuff it stabbed me right in my hip bone and started to bleed everywhere , And now I have a pretty knarly scar from it but thing is , know how to fall and don’t trust pebbles
I did a tre flip to nose slide on a ledge and barley missed my back foot, before I could kickflip. It made me realize that if you just send it, you will learn some cool shit.
I finally understand why it’s called frontside or backside 180 etc i knew about the ledges i just always thought that for frontside 180s and stuff you are spinning onto your back side which is why i thought that was backside 180 not frontside lol
Ive always loved surfing, since i was a kid but the problem is that i was only able to surf on summers, so i would lose all the skill and knowledge i gained after s couple months so recently i decided to try and learn how to skate to help me improve my abilities but also to fall in love with another sport wich always looked really fun. Btw english is not my first language so im sorry if you see any gramathical error
5:39 tge don't act tough one is so real and for ne it was quite easy to accept bc I knew that sk8 boarding is a sport and injuries are quite literally bound to happen 😭🤣(i fell and kinda twisted my knee, called my parentsto come fetch me immediately😭)
the 18 tip is to forget everything in the skateboarding world and only follow antihero, watch all there videos and buy there shit because its the most real skateboard team there is. They are the essence of skateboarding, what it is and how it should be!
Ngl, I don’t agree with the setup one, having a good board that has good pop and grip tape helps with actually doing tricks, having good bearings makes it so much easier to skate around and not get tired and to be able to have more time to set up, and then proper wheels are also important, super small wheels are gonna have the same problem as shit bearings, plus having really soft wheels or the improper wheels(like longboard wheels tryna do tricks) make it hard to learn, bc one of those beginner tricks I feel like is reverts and Altho not impossible with soft wheels I think are definitely easier with hard wheels
Trucks don’t matter tho, at least not to the point of hindering you unless the bushings are bad in some way shape or form that makes it harder for you to learn
i’m still terrified of ramps and drop ins, last time i did a ramp i twisted my foot and beg pretty that i made my wrist all sore from the impact it looks super fun but i really rather learn to ollie and kickflip
A confession a while back i got bombarded by your short content in recommended and I didn't give it a chance and assumed you were a prick. That's wrong of me I've now been watching bits and pieces and you're a chill guy and a positive influence in British skateboarding. Still not inspired me back onto a board though
# 2 is real but im just starting out ive tried some different boards they are all old but the one i use has bad bearings so i know thats why i cant keep speed. Also im getting new bearings soon
wait you are the guy I met in skatepark with big bowl in Amsterdam. You told me you have yt channel and that you are staying in a hotel with a ramp in it
The set up really does matter, it can really hold you back if you have for instance a too small board for your lengths and weight. Talk about bushings, makes the whole world.
Wait a minute. I thought when I turn clockwise (because I am goofy) my 180 is Frontside because my back truck moves to the Frontside. Is that wrong ? :(
yeah but no biggie cuz i snowboard and frontside vs backside is basically just are you turning forward with your shoulders (frontside) or are they going backwards (backside)
I don’t even think calling them circus tricks is derogatory, I like doing silly circus tricks and bad ass scary stunts both are fun and I feel like I get different stuff from both of them

Kickflip on the spade boards looks just as good,my first board I got one by accident i wanted a double tail but i was hasty
Great video 🛹👍🏼
5:59 i think it didn’t hurt was mainly the adrenaline. I once flew off my board so far into thorn patch, didn’t hurt until much later.
Good tips.

What's the scene around music in a skate park or headphones or earbuds? are speakers ok if its classic rock and kept at a kid friendly volume?

Railstand 180° flip.
Third ig wassup dude love your videos!
5:39 tge don't act tough one is so real and for ne it was quite easy to accept bc I knew that sk8 boarding is a sport and injuries are quite literally bound to happen 😭🤣(i fell and kinda twisted my knee, called my parentsto come fetch me immediately😭)
Cheers Poosay !
the 18 tip is to forget everything in the skateboarding world and only follow antihero, watch all there videos and buy there shit because its the most real skateboard team there is. They are the essence of skateboarding, what it is and how it should be!
you and yung wavy should collaborate!
Ngl, I don’t agree with the setup one, having a good board that has good pop and grip tape helps with actually doing tricks, having good bearings makes it so much easier to skate around and not get tired and to be able to have more time to set up, and then proper wheels are also important, super small wheels are gonna have the same problem as shit bearings, plus having really soft wheels or the improper wheels(like longboard wheels tryna do tricks) make it hard to learn, bc one of those beginner tricks I feel like is reverts and Altho not impossible with soft wheels I think are definitely easier with hard wheels
Trucks don’t matter tho, at least not to the point of hindering you unless the bushings are bad in some way shape or form that makes it harder for you to learn
@@markvickery5894a lot of cheap boards have plastic or very weak trucks that snap or bend on impact so they can’t handle too many flip tricks
i’m still terrified of ramps and drop ins, last time i did a ramp i twisted my foot and beg pretty that i made my wrist all sore from the impact
it looks super fun but i really rather learn to ollie and kickflip
I really recommend wearing pads while starting out it really helped me
Icecream sandwich is the bomb!
there is no way you are monetized with that intro😭😭
A confession a while back i got bombarded by your short content in recommended and I didn't give it a chance and assumed you were a prick. That's wrong of me I've now been watching bits and pieces and you're a chill guy and a positive influence in British skateboarding. Still not inspired me back onto a board though
# 2 is real but im just starting out ive tried some different boards they are all old but the one i use has bad bearings so i know thats why i cant keep speed. Also im getting new bearings soon
wait you are the guy I met in skatepark with big bowl in Amsterdam. You told me you have yt channel and that you are staying in a hotel with a ramp in it
The set up really does matter, it can really hold you back if you have for instance a too small board for your lengths and weight. Talk about bushings, makes the whole world.
Wait a minute. I thought when I turn clockwise (because I am goofy) my 180 is Frontside because my back truck moves to the Frontside. Is that wrong ? :(
yeah but no biggie cuz i snowboard and frontside vs backside is basically just are you turning forward with your shoulders (frontside) or are they going backwards (backside)
I don’t even think calling them circus tricks is derogatory, I like doing silly circus tricks and bad ass scary stunts both are fun and I feel like I get different stuff from both of them
Bro when you're locked in and want that trick bad enough falling down doesn't even phase you 😂
“ don’t start scootering “
Better at skating than I am scootering by far but, scooters are so fun 😭
hey Dan I'm sorry to hear you grew up super poor. What neighbourhood did you grow up in? Parents unemployed? Its hard man x
Thanks for putting tips out there bro Jesus loves u and wants u to come to him and have a relationship with him God Bless❤
You've missed the last three tips :)
Swear to God I thought it was MGK, then I started reading the comments and I'm not the only one 😂
I didn't know that MGK skated. 😅
Owen Wilson rips! Who knew!?
On item nr.3 i just ask for there favorite trick not his/her hardest
Fear is a choice you embrace.
once a chair fell on my head it didn’t hurt
If you dont have money for skate trainers or something you can also just learn tricks on grass (make sure its dry tho)
Crappy skateboards are like ankle weights. You'll just be that much better when you eventually get a nice one.
My first board was second hand and trash, my second is second hand and less trash
