Hi, My name's Rob. I am from Goskate.com and today I'm going to teach you how to skateboard. Before you learn how to skateboard, you first want to look at the bolt. This bolt in the center of the skateboard dictates how much you are able to turn. Once you have fixed this bolt, you are ready to learn how to push on a skateboard. This starts with learning the proper foot placement.

This was an excellent instructional video, thank you so much! I am a beginner learning how to skate board and this was very helpful in getting to know the basics. =)
"Now throw your board down." *carefully aligns board on the floor*
Thanks Rob! Great cover on the basics.
i wanna buy a new skateboard , which one is the most good quality ?
Soooo im learning how to skate and is it petty for me to not want to screw up the knees in my skinny jeans?Ive just been wearing older pairs til i get the hang of it
It just feels sooo weird to skateboard, because i'm used to riding my bike, and i'm holding on to something. But when I try to skate, it just feels really weird, and I loose my balance real quick. Can someone help me with this problem?
is it weird that i find the sound of a skateboard relaxing? idk, i always have ._.
i know what im asking for my birthday :)
my board doesnt have a bolt in the middle
Longboard FTW
I can't tell if it's actually the board that isn't balanced...or just me
i cant land my tre flips .. helppp !?
I can't believe some of you make fun of him when he is trying to teach some beginners. You people probably not know pro skater if one smacked you in the face and said " hey I'm a pro skater"
I GOT IT TANKXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
No no no not If you are below the recomended Max Weight it wont. :)
Or if you have a really old and shitty board yes then it may snap.
I hope I gave you the right info you wanted :P
~ Thank You Thanxx To this Video I Learned To Ride A Skate Board In Jst One Day **Long Board** Thank You !!!
I am 9 and i love skating i reccomend it to everyone out there.
Roarore88 now you’re 14 😳
This guys 14 now wow
Thanks dude, these videos really seem to help me out.
Boy you can totally tell he boards by the way he speaks LOL
"When you take a turn..."
Nice video!
Thanks! This was really helpful!
keep on practicing just got mine from zumiez too :D you'll get the hang of it
Great video and all.I am learning to skateboard and figured I would learn to skateboard backwards since everyone else seems to skate forward.Im getting pretty good but I am hoping to find others who skateboard backwards as well.
Thanks so much helped a lot!!!!:))
Thanks for the vid! I found it really helpful when you filmed the top view while you were skating.
Thank you this helped a lot! I'm trying but it's really hard.
Thank you your really helped me I used to do it like tony but I couldn't really turn but thanks to this video I learned how to do the manual and to have fun. :)
I'm a girl and I know how to ride a turn but I don't know how to brake so I just step off and let it go or I crash HOW DO I STOP?!
you can put your back foot on the ground and have it drag to slow you down. That is the easiest way I've heard of.
Reid Gowan front foot
or use your back foot to put weight on the tail to lift up the front while your front foot is still on the board and it will come to a halt(might not be a very gradual stop though)
Power slide
This happens always, a skateboard will never completely follow a straight direction because of the weight dispersion on it.. but it will help to have tighter trucks, as it controls it, but cannot completely stop it.. Experiment with them for tightness and looseness, according to your comfort.
Hope this helps!
Non-professional here! :)
cont. Or you can get hard wheels which go faster on smooth ground but slower if its rough. Hard wheels are better for tricks though. Soft wheels are from 78a - 85a durometer and meduim wheels are about 90a - 95a durometer hard wheels are about 98a - 103a the numbers refer to hardness rating. There is also a B scale like bones STFs are 83b which is = to 103a Setups are kind of expensive but you can always get blank decks and mini logo trucks i hear they are cheap and good. good luck.
Well, at first, I found it quite hard to balance while pushing. Top Tip: Learn to stop before trying to go very fast, as you WILL have a massive scar on your arm from having to bail when going strait into a car...Also I coulden't find the confidence to change my foot placement, so my front foot was always in push position. But once you gget the hang of it you will be able to skate around town like a pro and laugh in those skinnyboarders faces!!!! lol Since my bday I've ONLY learnt to acid drop.
I had a skating instructor and I used to what you do( Put my front foot on the top 3 bolts) until he said im doing it wrong, he said my front foot should be on all 4 bolts and when gathering up some speed my toes should be pointing fowards and when i put finish gathering speed both sets of toes on my feet face the side 90 degrees or 270 degrees, depending if i'm regular or goofy respectively, now im confused i dont know which skating stance is the right one :s
When I push back with my foot to gain speed, I move forward but then I start veering/leaning to the right/left. If you have this problem I suspect it's that I'm leaning my upper body either to the left/right of the skateboard too much, or that my foot isn't swiping the ground in a straight line (meaning that I'm my push foot isn't moving back and forth parallel to my skateboard)
One thing to add is that when you lean on the board to turn, the looser the trucks are, the more your board will turn when you lean forward or backward. On the contrary, the tighter they are, the less of a turn it will make so you will have to lift the board to turn yourself.
Thank you so much!i found this SUPER helpful!
i think in time i will get the hang of it.. i started in my house but crashed into my couch like 50 times =P ... i did kind of get the turn though. back to the point, this video helped alot, thanks!
Haha I've always found it relaxing. People used to skateboard next door to me as a baby. It became so relaxing I fell asleep whenever I heard them skateboarding. xD I`m kind of weird.
It's like studying for a test I get it all when I watch it as soon as it comes to doing it I'm lost sadly I may have to get one of my guy friends to help me :(
Thank you i just skateboarded for the first time. All i would ask is if you made a video about turning cus thats all im having trouble with
Thanks alot! This has been really helpful!!!
This was a really fun and good tutorial on how to skate board for beginners it helped me learn the basics on skate boarding
I was totally captivated watching these guys doing unbelieveable twists, turns, jumps, landings etc...........
I can skate really good but only goofy. I'm trying to ride regular so I can land more tricks easily
i just started riding today so i'm a beginner and i think this was really helpful thnx man
What if ur skateboard is rolling when u try to stay still with both feet on ur board??
Thanks for the tip on foot placement. My friend says to put the back foot on tail
Thanks this helps alot! I'm a beginner skater and this taught me almost everything i need to know!
i self taught myself, but this really helped me with the balance
Me too:) it´s amazing!
i was doing splits. no wonder i kept falling. thanks for the video bro
It takes a couple of hours to learn, but it's definetly that worth :-)
thanks i gonna learn so quickly cause of you :) THANKS!!!!
Thanks to you I became a pretty good skateboarder in 3 days
Thanks a lot man:) I found a sector 9 one for 150 I think
Best instruction video i found so far. Thank you so much.
Thanks rob i learnt how to skateboard from this vid
I really like your lesson, It's very cool.
Andy.
you teach so well. its cool to learn from you
thanks so much this really helps me.
Im new to this. Like new new. Skateboarding looks so fun and I want to skate so bad! :( So Im going to ask my family if they will get me a skateboard for Christmas! Then I'll skate in the spring and stuff :) What's a good skateboard? How can I know whats a good skateboard?
Thank you I learned how to skate now
Wear*
Me: AAAAGH! SH*T! MY F*CKING ARM!!
it took me almost 5 years to have tre flips every try put your back foot in the side pocket and scoop it like a 3 shuv and flick the kickflip only a little bit and it will spin you just have to practice every day and you will see progress watch out for primo with tre flips tho -_-
Maybe the rubber thing called the bushing is making it. In that case, loosen the nut on top of it a bit. NEVER tighten it. The bushing could get dented and you'd have to buy a whole new skateboard. Also, when you skate forward it could be that you're leaning to much one way.
I want to skateboard, but I'm a girl and im scared , ahh!
It's not something other people would expect me to do as i am a dancer and a cheerleader haha, at least i will have good balance i guess? Any tips ? :l
thanks dude!
I'm only 10 but I still wanna learn how to ride a skateboard but I got lack of confidants so I just fall of
Hey, its super easy actually. Get a popsicle shaped board about 7.75 - 8 inches wide is good to start off with. Then get trucks to match the width of the board. that is super important that your trucks are the right width for your board. Then you will need bearings, hardware and wheels. Bearings you can get any bearings and same with hardware. With wheels it's a little more complex, you can get soft wheels which makes just riding around a cruising super fun because it smooths out the bumps.
Hell yeah,man!I almost broke my left wrist after going down one hell of a steep hill...I was lucky.Only felt pain for like a week or two.I was on vacation so I didnt go out to skate with my buddies,they were in the province.It was kinda boring so I just let my lazy ass sweat at the high temperatures of the bulgarian sea shore.But tomorrow I'm gonna go skate with 'em.The only thing I'm good at,is pushing the board and falling.Oh and uh...happy birthday,man!Nice age to start shreddin'!
lol I saw this video like 3 times, then a few days later I bought a skate board, I forgot a lot of things, had my feet together, or at the tail, fell on my arse three times, practiced in an alley for about 20 min, sorta got the hang of it, but fell the third time there =P, guys don't ever put your foot on the tail, it will hurt a lot, btw I tried to turn, and I fell, gonna practice tomorow though!
I felt that way when I first started to skate back when I was 14. I didn't know what the hell I was doing and could only ride (barely) and do a very bad-looking ollie. I got frustrated that I sucked and quit. Now I'm 27 and have recently decided to start skating again to become more physically active. Yeah, I feel self-conscious, but so what? My advice is to find an area where nobody is and do it alone there. Like an empty street. Hell, I practice my balance and footwork in my kitchen.
My 8 & 14 yr old wants skateboards for Christmas. My 8 yr old still cannot ride a bike (we're working on it) yet. I'm against the gift idea only because of the bike thing, my 14 yr old is quite tall & possibly not very athletic.
Do you have any suggestions for very very very beginners? Types of boards or places to start? If we get them skateboards they'll be watching these tutorials, LOL!
Question beginner here. ordered a pre-build Darkstar board.. the trucks were very loose, would grind on the board when I leaned.. but when I tighten the bolts down the bushings pop out and the trucks lean to one side and cause the board to favor one side.. for instance when i push it he goes to the left instead of straight... also sometimes on level ground only three wheels are on the ground one wheel is a little of the ground. What should I do?
Thanks alot it really helped
Good Job for going for it and getting back up after falling. And it is okay to put your back foot on the tail just like the dude in the video says balance your weight out and don't throw it back keep it over your front foot. if you don't get used to having your foot on the tail you won't be able to do many tricks!
Bro I turned 18 in July and I feel great. Older and more mature man. Don't matter on the age. Matters on he attitude. Sure you see 7 year old ride a skateboard. I see everyone age in my area riding a board. Gets me hyped. So go learn how to skate. It's fun. Since July I can do a solid Ollie and just cruising and ride. :D #JUSTDOIT
I'm still trying to learn, I can push off okay, but i have trouble putting my pushing foot back on the board properly. My toes are always off the edge, resulting in me leaning to the side a little which makes me skate to the right. Do I try and put my foot a litlle farther back? Because I feel like falling when I do..
iam 11,thats my chance XD!
Well im a girl and im the head cheerleader at my school. I just bought a new skateboard last week. I got mine at sports authority. Im honestly a skater it runs in my blood, my family skateboards, surf & all that crazy stuff but you should get one it is REEAALY fun!!!!!!
It depends on you're trucks some trucks just suck and they are really hard to balance on, if you wanna learn how to skate get trucks that has resistance so you can turn whenever you want to and it is easier to balance on. i recommend independent trucks or element
Hey I had a question what should I get I'm new to skateboards and longboards and I know there different but I wanted to but one of these to go to work what would be the best choice and how much would it cost? Please tell me some names of the boards
I am a girl and i love to skateboard so this dosent mean girls cant skateboard .....i just really hate it when a boy comes up to me when im skateboarding and starts asking me all sorts of questions like can you skateboard.... like are you seriouse!?!?!?!?!
Yo skateboarding may be hard at first, but once you trust your body to be stable enough and have good balance, you got it. I couldn't even stand on a skateboard. 1 day later I can gather speed, stand on it, go down hills. Moral, anyone can skate.
first you have to learn how to fall correctly. dont want to break a bone. have you been relaxing you legs and bending your knees. or maybe your trucks are too loose. that was my mistake when i very first started. dont tense up. i'm a female rider too.
Haha yo, you do realize gay/bi guys skate to? We're all different kinds of people, not the stereotypes. I myself am bi and I love to skate, surf, play video games etc.
This vid has been a lotta help, thanks :)
I was taught to position your front foot parallel to the board, touching the top two bolts and then after kicking off, pivot the foot to be perpendicular. What is the advantage of doing it the 3/4 bolt way in this video?
What if my trucks are super tight, but my board still leans a lot bc I’m fat?
You wanna gently push one of your feet to the ground. Or push the back of the board down so it touches the ground.
OK so I tried using a skate board and mostly all I do with it is go to slopes and sit on my skate board and WOAH! also I try string to it and my dad pulls me. I have more uses more a skate board
I need more practice and my friend Neil is good of teaching me. We need Skate Parks here in Ohio and that way we can skateboard there instead of not on the streets, sidewalks and buildings.
Dude yes I'm so gonna use this vid to help just got my skateboard last week and I'm having troubles balancing lol
I try to learn but always end up murdering my face or hands and knees
I know how to handle a skateboard because my friend has a one with lose balls. i TRIED IT AND I COULD HANDLE IT BUT MY BOARD IS stiff so i need to ask my dad to turn that ball over thanks.
If youre scared to fall dont skate, im a beginner too started 2 days ago and i really SUCK but getting hurt is a part of skating just accept it. you'll learn wht the time
you need to have balance, in between the board to be able to skate just foward, make sure that your feet are not to one side of the board.
i am also female ;D haha.
saying 10 years olds skate doesn't really make me feel any better, and yeah i think ill practise inside first too before embarrassing myself in front of the world
I'm a mom, I don't skate. But I need guidance on whether or not to get my non-atheltically inclined children skateboards....so this vid was desperately needed. :)
I wanna learn how to skateboard and im scared that something bad might happen to me because mu friend fractured his arm once while skateboarding =___=
Now I can skateboard!
21 here. first day learning it and i felt like a moron doing it around the neighborhood. Think im just gonna drive to a nearby park next time.
