You should start to make "go to sleep" video's for the insomnia people. haha Very soothing voice brother! And ofcourse your tips are brilliant. Thanks!
Hopefully your back starts to feel better soon so you're able to skate at your preferred pace. In the meantime, thank you for making this kind of tutorial for mere mortals, like me!
I also have been battling lower back herniated disc for about a year and a half. It sucks so much. Best of luck. Definitely look into mckenzie method physical therapy.
Great 👍 video! It definitely taught me what to do. It's like snowboarding💡. Take your time with your back and keep up with your recovery excercises. I know this from experience .
I was just trying to learn these a couple weeks ago. Kept locking into feeble and stopping, but now I realize it's because I wasn't shifting my weight properly.
Hey man, exact same problem with my back! Pelvic disk has trouble but just started seeing a chiropractor too. Had a bit of time off skating but hopefully get back at it soon
Proper slappys are done with your feet on the bolts. Also, try keeping your arms down when doing tricks. That’s probably one of the causes of your lower back pain.
Dude get well, chronic pain can be a long battle. Wishing you the best. It's easier for me to hit it on small curbs, parking blocks freak me out mentally always worried I'll overslap.
Bro. I am 34 and I recently started having trouble out of my lumbar vertebrae too! I hate it cuz it does seem to come and go. I also have trouble out of my hip flexors I guess is what that is. Either way when I do a ton of flip tricks in a few days time it will be really sore when I raise my thigh up to do things like put my pants on or tie my shoes. Tbh I am starting to think the two are related because it seems like when one is bothering me the other will. Ofc I am doing much better than I was when I first started skating again back in august but still. I wish I knew how to solve the problem entirely
Where I'm from, we don't have those rounded curbs, they're rectangular and granite and usually chipped so I lift my weight off my board, lift my front truck and 50-50 up the curb
I can’t ever seem to do these! :(I keep thinking the curb is too high but it’s probably just me not committing and not going fast enough. I wanna learn these so badly though
This may be a stupid question. I want to get into grinds on the street, but I often just stop myself. It's like my trucks grab onto a gritty surface, rather than sliding over it. Do I need to prep the curb? Or wax it or something? EDIT: I don't think I see wax in this video.
You’ll almost always need wax on everything in the streets, even sometimes on pure metal. I waxed this curb too. Especially concrete. Lots of it, might even take a couple days to sink into the concrete fully
It just seems so strange when you come up on a curb because it feels as if it is just going to jam against the curb and throw you off. That's my issue with getting myself to do this. When you jam up agaisnt the curb and don't lift up the front of the board will the wheels always just roll up the curb even if it is a square curb? That's what screws with me.
Me as a skater Im a weirdo. I completely suck at ollie's to the point where I don't try them anymore. I'm a master of all things shuvit and pressure flip related so I never got into grinds cause I can't Ollie. I just now discovered slappy grinds and I'ma master them to add them to my no Ollie skate style
I saw some people on Instagram the other day get into an argument because one person said that you go much further on slappy 50s if you lock in heel/toe side instead of crosslocking them. Not sure if it holds any merit bc ive never done a slappy but worth experimenting with id say
@@josharroyo6159 I've experienced my furthest slappys with cross lock and it just slid. I'm pretty sure the butter factor of the curb would be the determining factor, if its crusty then a cross lock may cause more friction
I don’t judge anyone’s abilities, everyone’s on a different path with different motives, and much different stories. Skateboarding is fun and love, first and foremost.
Your teaching method of carving on the edge is genius for learning slappies. Best tutorial channel.

I watched a dozen slappy tutorials. But THIS video got me doing the trick perfectly in less than 10 minutes. Do EVERYTHING he says.
I want to learn this one so badly! Never tried it before. Thanks for the great tutorial and welcome back!
Hope your back gets better, always appreciate your trick tips. Super helpful.

This is a great video. I hope that your back is feeling better. Have you tried any Yoga for it?
Awesome! This was just what I needed. I can slappy nose slide but struggling with the 5050.
Thanks, always very helpful and easy understood

I just built a wheel stop for stating and had success today. Got on top day one. Just need to stay w it
Very nice description of how to do this thank you for sharing! :-)
Wish you get better soon, bro. do some restorative yoga and exercises to help the healing. Salud!

Struggling with getting the back wheel onto the curb, any tips ?
For me the hardest bit is getting out once I've reached the end. Could you give me some tips in more detail?
Hope you get better soon.
Thanks for the tutorial. You need to wax the curve for that, right? Did you?
Yep lots of wax
Feel better man
I can’t ever seem to do these! :(I keep thinking the curb is too high but it’s probably just me not committing and not going fast enough. I wanna learn these so badly though
Can you make a how to merlin twist, or front foot impossible ?
Take it easy on your back!
watching this to learn switch slappies better & confident
sheesh get well soon

@@SKATEHACKS Thank you sir! Your guidance is well appreciated.
Hope you have a great day.
I'm taking it to the streets.

Square curbs are harder to slappy 50-50 no doubt. You have to jam it harder. Try a more rounded curb or parking block first

Terima Kasih!
is it better to have looser or tighter trucks
Loooooooooooose!!!
👍👍👍🤙🤙🤙
Is it possible to do these on a curb that’s not banked
Yes
great explanation. now i hope i can excute
I can slappy 50-50 but I can only hold them for like 2-3 seconds. Any tips for holding them longer?
Speed. I probably never did anything longer than 3 seconds too, becauce we dont have painted curbs in czech
@@komoonkh lol I live in Finland and the winter destroys the curbs in here

You kinda seem like the dude I’d be scared to skate In front of cause I’d think you’d judge me
