unbelievably satisfying to watch - good luck with this. have you tried "rocking out"
28 วันที่ผ่านมา
Rocking Out - is that when you lift the front wheels over the coping, put them down and then lift the back wheels? I have kind of tried that, but I usually end up jumping off the board when I try that as well...
Its about comitting bro, i see people say speed. Ur speed is good, maybe even too fast to learn. You didn't commit on a single attempt. But you can for sure do it. Believe in urself man, its exactly the same as when you do it out of the bank. When you rontwheels are about to touch the coping, start lifting your weight, hit the tail a bit when your backwheels are about to touch the coping and lift up your knees. Push out with your frontfoot to balance the board out, stomp. Bam

Thanks for the encouragement! You make it sound so simple 😀I thought I was committing, but I have never really understood what it means to "commit". To me, it's more about "understanding what to do" and then focusing on doing that. I'm still not sure of exactly what to do here. I focus on the "lift the front wheels" part and managed to do that a few times, but then my body / mind automatically jumps off the board without my approval 😀
‘Committing’ means telling yourself right before rolling up to your obstacle, you’re gonna do it no matter what, and then also 100% going for it. If you then step of before you even tried it, you didn’t commit, you ‘bailed’. As for the tips that I can’t really make clear over text, SkateIQ is the best teacher out there. I’ve never seen anyone explain tricks so detailed as him. Here’s a video for fly outs th-cam.com/users/shorts3H4EpBjR4MQ?si=b5bLX2j6QzN11qhr

@@mullet-man6956 I honestly think I might be lacking the ability to "commit", because to me committing or bailing doesn't seem like a conscious choice. Bailing usually happens involuntarily for me. I might be super calm and think I'm going to make it, but then my mind/body bails for me. The few times I have tried to "just do it" I usually end up flat on my stomach on the concrete, rolling my ankle or something similar 😀I concluded that this happens because I have no clue of what I'm doing or no clue of what to do, as in which parts of my body should do what to execute the "trick". The few times I've had "breakthroughs" have been more about "being calm" and "focusing on one thing", as in "this time I should try to move this body part this way" I follow Mitchie @skateiq and am part of his online membership program. He and his videos has helped me a lot, primarily by giving insights into the "fundamentals" that I probably never would have gotten by myself.
It indeed does happen and you can't do anything about it. If you really can't do it, you have to get more boardfeeling before moving to that obstacle. Skate around more en do little jumps on and of things. Ride on and of things as well. Get more confident on the board.
just like @kantopicthe2nd said. it's more like a commitment issue. be more confident in yourself! :) Everything looks pretty fine, keep your balance like you do, lift your front wheels just a little bit that they are not rolling against the coping but lean a bit forward to prevent not landing in manual stance and fall on your butt haha.
oh and you know what helped me alot when i first started and was afraid of the jump ? i took an old matress and put it on on top of the ramp hahah

@@g.k.1552 Hehe, I think there should be mattresses available at all skateparks! :) Did the mattress help? The funny thing is that I can do a Fly Out at another spot in this park - a corner in a bowl with a coping. But this ramp seems to mess something up for me. Maybe because it's quite steep and short?
You need to go faster, the skateboard will automatically bump and send you up :D And release just a little bit your weight when you are going up

So speed is more important than technique? How do I get more speed at this particular place? Do I need to go higher up on the opposite wall/bank? Or do I need to pump more going down? Or pump more going up? Why do I need more speed on the higher / steeper ramp than on the small ramp / kicker beside it? Is it because I lose a lot of speed as I roll up the higher ramp?
To me it seems you have enough speed, just a commitment issue.. you are just jumping off the board. Just pump up like you do on the small ramp and do a little hop when the back wheels clear the coping
Not exacly more important than technique but always helps in a bunch of tricks. Going faster in this case, it will automatically boost you off the ramp. Here in my city we have a bowl, going faster to go off the bowl is easier, basically it throws you ahead. And don't forget to lean your body forward, so you can get out off the ramp. You need to imagine that you are going forward, to get off the ramp. And I think that in this case, pumping more in the final of the ramp first ramp and the begining off the second can get you more speed. Just bending your knees and push at the and and in the begining of any ramp can get you more speed. Imagine that you are pushing the ground with your legs.
But I think in this case like the others said to you, its more a commitment issue, just believe that you will land and stay on your board. I think that my tips will be more usefull for you in bigger ramps. That could be your next step. Hope you can land this trick brother. Cheers from Brazil.

@@alangaspero Thanks for all the encouragement. The funny thing is that I can do a Fly Out in a corner of a bowl with coping in this skatepark. And I don't feel scared when approaching this ramp, but I guess my mind is scared!? ;) Brazil sounds like a much better place to skate than Stockholm, Sweden, right now :)
try to do it slower, you need to adapt to diffrent angle, and knees you need to bend them more, without jumping off the skateboard, your shoulders should be parallel with the skateboard Good luck

Ah, slower as in just getting the front wheels over the coping rather than flying out or rolling away afterwards? When you say bending the knees more, do you mean crouching more before and while rolling up the ramp, or "pulling up the knees" more at / after reaching the coping?
ye, I would try do it slower to roll away as you say, it gonna be similiar to rock on the coping, first you need to lift front wheels and then stand on the nose with almost all of your weight and lift your back leg with the tail, with every good try when you fill comfortably you can add some speed. Knees are fine, i mean when you bend them more you have less distance to cover when you fall, and its good to fall on skateboard. In your case shoulders are the most important, from 0:15 - 0:19 sec i see the problem, shoulders are not in parallel to skateboard
I have a habit of taking my back foot off. Keep rolling
