I tried this method today, and it totally opened up krooked grinds for me! Thank you Spencer! You have such good style and have always been entertaining.
Still learning front 50-50's, I put my board on the ledge, trucks locked and do a run and jump on the board to get the feel. Ride on grinds also help me get more comfortable with ollie-ing onto a ledge
1:21 bro I had the worst slam recently where I landed on my Back on a curb / ledge that was tall Enough to where I like literally got speared by the curb & it hurts so bad lmao. I’m hoping doing bigger ledges in the future this won’t happen 😂
Great videos dogg keep up the good work. Next time im in cali, I would love to skate and smoke with you bro 🙌I honestly owe you a beer for all the tricks you taught me. 😂😭
I’m finally starting to get into grinds after getting my flat ground valid I swear it adds so much to just jump onto the ledge without thinking so much lol
Thanks for the tips Spencer! I've tried learning slappy crooks before and found them difficult to get into but imma try them again after watching this. I checked out your video about nose slides as well yesterday, Really keen to learn those too!
@@whoisdyl5486try moving the balls of your feet back towards your heel side a little bit. That should put your weight more where it needs to be. Also try to land with your weight more on your back foot. I see people front foot heavy when they are toe-siding FS 50-50s. Lift your front truck enough to clear the Ollie but land back foot first. Once you figure that out you’re on your way to a bunch of other grinds.
randomly watched an old ride channel trick tip of you, and now I see you're making more - Awesome, I love it, missed your vibe, I enjoy your videos! helps a lot
dude i was looking exactly for this, i've been skating for 12 yrs and never had a decent ledge to pratice, like i can do sw lazer on flat, im good with transition skate, but ledges i suck and always got fked up throught out my life, i stopped skate in the pandemics but im back and we built two good ones at my local park and i've struggling, im learning shit that i supossed to learn a decade ago lmao, and at the same time learning switch too, i got front and back 5050 reg and switch, now im getting confortable with fs and bs nose reg and switch too, also building confidence to switch 5-0's those scare the hell out of me lmao Thanks for the tips! im going full on ledges to step up my game, i hate the feeling of being thrash at what i like to do
This is a good one. It's cool that you show the progress of the trick and make it okay to take things slow. Its tough when you go to the park and you see people just balsting stuff. It makes you feel like you're not doing it if you go slower or are just trying to feel stuff out. Thanks for reminding us to work up to it!
Ledges are weird, there's so much open space it freaks me out, because I don't know where I'll land. That's why I'll take a curb any day, you can find ones just as high as most ledges (if you look hard enough) & the lock in just feels way stable. I hate how super slippery granite is, combine that with the wrong wheels, A not perfect ollie & you've got the perfect recipe for a bad day.
This reminds me of my skating goals for this summer. Thank you for the motivation cuz it truly is just confidence and knowing how to stall. What's next after ledge tricks tho?
This is perfect Spencer! I just got a new baker board 8.38. Tried breaking it in today. My ollies aren't a 100% or have the biggest height but its probably an adjustment, since I've only been riding 8.25 until now. Can't wait to practice these tips on a parking block/curb Then a ledge in future ✨️🛹
What's your opinion on waxing the middle of ledges for lipslides? I really like front lips on ledges but I never wax it because I dont want to hurt anyone.
I'm trying to learn crooks at the moment, I feel like I can consistently pop into it, get a nice pinch and grind it out a decent distance, but I struggle coming out of the grind every time and I can never land the trick
You can stall it going straight at it but the main thing to keep in mind while doing a real one is keeping the weight back like a five O. Trust me you don't wanna stick with back t better let that board shoot out
I should def do one on bs tail ! I finally learned them switch so It’s like learned them all over again! And yeah like homie mentions u def don’t wanna stick on a back t haha !
@@goatcoffee if that's your problem I would try to twist more your waist, I know it seems scarier but it's way more cozy. Like a front board when you just tap it and a front board going to fakie you know? Turn more and twist your waist and you should be good. You're still gonna slip out some time but you will get it eventually
I've been getting better at crooks on curb sized ledges. But I'm garbage when it comes to getting a crook on like a 12" ledge. I know there really shouldn't be much difference but there's something weird going on in my head. I'm not really afraid of committing. I think I do something different and cause the wheel to bounce out of the locked position. Any tips for that? Thanks for the video. 👊
Try going more parallel to the ledge and lean forward a little more as well as add pressure to keep u heavy on front foot for the crook. Hope that helps!
Practice ollieing into a fs nose stall going straight at it once you get that down go at the ledge at a good angle then gradually become more parallel with the ledge the more parallel you go the more you slide so it slowly builds the muscle memory
Yeah that's how I do them. Right now I have to start every session going straight at the ledge and doing stall first to warm up then I start hitting the angle and sliding a little @@Kadehollan
@skatedad9794 same dude I'm sliding a bit more in my bs nose slides but I can still lock in and slide fs a little bit after I warm up I usually do some flat ground tricks then move to the box right away and then the rail and quarter pipes

Nice! Good method!
Same method i do. Coz im pussy like that lol but this really helps ALOT.
the tip about not concerning yourself about coming out fakie or regular was helpful for me. Thx
Yee worry about that later ! Just do what feels right natural and then work on regs / fakie
just tried some of your tips (just stall on the curb to get a feel for it). an hour later lo and behold, my first crooked grind. brother thank you.

Thanks for the tips! Fun fact. I did my first 50-50 at this park a few weeks ago! It was on the outside edge of that manny pad

Wisdom. Break tricks down into their most basic components. Learn each, then put them together. This is the way.

Yo that’s crazy! And awesome
