>what are you working on

-getting heel flips more elevated/less rocketed
-learning nose slides without cheating.
-nose manuals/learning to hold my balance on mannys better
-Learning those weird foot plants where u grab the board behind you

>revelations that I have had

-the more u bend down before the pop, the more time you have for the trick itself.
-for heelflips: you need to kinda bend ur ankle when going for the flick of the trick.
-wallrides are insanely easy once u learn the pitch of the wall and treat it like a qp

>What are you all working on?
-Kickflips. Landed my first few last week, haven't had time to really go for them again since, though I clinched one out in the last session by chance.
-No comply 180s on/up things.
-Sweepers, though I need to drop back in properly with them where you just fucking caveman into the ramp rather than slamming the tail down and dropping in regular.

>What was the last revelation you had
-With kickflips, the issue I have is getting my back foot on, but what's clicking is that I need to curl up into a ball when I jump, rather than jumping more upright like a Zulu or something. Guess that's the case with most flip tricks but I can actually feel it now.
-No complies actually take a lot less energy then I tend to think. Usually I'll start by totally over popping it until it's out of control and flying away from me, when in reality it's a VERY small movement. Getting them up onto things like curbs and QPs does require a decent pop though, so I'm trying to figure out how to pop them high and slap the tail down onto the edge without cheating it and grabbing the nose (though that feels pretty cool sometimes).
-With sweepers, idk, it's fun to smack the tail off the coping on the way up, but again like with kickflips, it's better to have you body balled up so you can immediately turn around and do a nosegrab drop in.

I think in general I'm learning how being hunched over is usually the position you want to be in when you're mid-trick. I have a tendency to straighten my back, but for a lot of tricks this means that I can't see both of my feet too well and makes me bail out of tricks.

I got a feeble to fakie on a tiny quarterpipe last night by thinking about fakie manualing out of it. Seems like nothing but I've been skating for a long time and hadn't been able to do that trick on anything until now so i'm excited to try it on some bigger things. Thanks to the anon who said the fakie manual thing.

I was at my local the other day and I asked my guy behind the counter if he could get a specific type of wheel in for me. He pulled up the DLX catalog for retailers. For the shop to buy spitfire f4 wheels straight from DLX it costs them $25. I saw the price on the site. They then sell them for like $50 a set at my local. Is that 100% mark up in price justified?

yeah, f4s are the best and shop guys gotta eat too. wheels aren't something you should have to replace that often either. i don't think I ever had a flat spot with f4 and a set of conical fulls should last a good while.

sounds like you need to just find a better local because F4s at my shop are like $38-$40 at the max. F4s are great but i'd never pay $50 for a set when you can get TWO sets of Classics for like $5 more.

Recently have not been learning anything new, but trying to get my small bag of flip tricks more consistent/higher/rolling faster. When I remember and actively commit to a few rules, I almost immediately without fail become more consistent-- the spirit is willing but the mind/body are weak.

>jump high enough with both feet to give the board enough time to finish rotating/flipping
>land on the board no matter what with both feet (even if primo or upside down)
>watch the board with your eyes as it flips under you
>spread your feet apart from each other
>leaning away means i don't want to land it-- even if i land it, if i'm leaning really far toeside/heelside, i dont count it

Yes these are all obvious as fuck, but if i do not actively put my mind to it, my body will naturally try to do the opposite in an act of self preservation/fear: jumping as low as possible, jumping too far forward, keeping legs close together etc etc

100% try it, if flatground/street skating is not for you then you can just be a dude who skates transition and there is no shame in that. That's all I do. My wheels basically never leave the concrete yet I still feel like I can hold my own at the skatepark and get a few board taps here and there by doing some stylish grinds.

Start on mini ramps to get the basics down.

Also never call it 'vert' skating unless you're actually skating a ramp that is vertical. It's called 'transition' or tranny.

I guess it’s just feels harder to commit. At 26, you can’t take falls as easily, and most of the time when I fall, I go 90° and straight to the concrete.
>>116032
>call it transition
Noted! Well maybe there’s hope still yet. :) Like I said to the anons above, I just can’t seem to get tricks. Idk if I’m just not committed or what. My hopes are that transition will somehow be easier. Idk.
If skateboarding isn’t for me, I’m gonna buy rollerblades. Way I see it is there’s some things were just not good at man, but I still wanna cover all bases.

get a yoga mat for cheap and practice flatground tricks on it. then practice doing them rolling and gap into the mat. you could also just find a big grass gap or a gazebo spot and practice sending them into the grass.
unironically that's how i learned how to skate big gaps.
if this makes you feel like a pussy just remember those woodward niggers have a foam pit.

for tranny you really need to be able to commit, i don't have much advice for how to learn stuff on there because i'm bad at skating it

I feel like learning basic tricks in tranny is easy because you can just do them on a 3ft ramp and then it's pretty much the same thing on a 6ft ramp, which is pretty much the same thing on a 10ft ramp. It's just hard as fuck to get the balls to commit to shit once it gets to 6ft

revert back to ollie monkey and get some flat rocket ollies while warming up, thats the motion when going up a manny pad, just with slightly bigger pop.
For nose mannies I have no clue, gotta have a boned ollie already to make that transition on the front wheels smooth and stable with an extended front foot...

I was skating bowls and dropping in on 6ft stuff before I could shuv. Just do it, it's super fucking fun and not as "tricky" as flatland. There's no real secret to just cruising around bowls once you know how to pump. It's just a matter of doing the faster and higher. I mean, the vert legends all stink at street skating, yet they regularly fly through the air doing fucking backflips and shit. Do it.

Jump higher and hang your lead arm/shoulder more over the nose while looking straight down between your feet. It's a bitch of a stage to get stuck in, but the reason you kick the board forward and away when you get the full flip is probably because you're focusing all of your attention on where you're trying to kick, which is probably making you lean your upper body back too much because you're trying to get a good view of it. And then the opposite problem with it not fully spinning when you don't kick it away is simply because you're not jumping high enough and clearing your legs out of the way so that it can get the full rotation. You can just try to flip it faster, but imo that's a lot more trial and error and fucking around with your already good footing.

I'm going to work on them on Friday too so I'll see if I can beat you to a really clean one!

because those people are friendless losers in the first place who assume everyone else is like them and thus wouldn't want to meet up in the first place. I've met dudes from /tv/ /vg/ /v/ /o/ and /p/ and it's never been weird or awkward, usually a good time and still keep in contact with a handful of those people and hit them up when I want to engage in Y hobby with them if they're free again.

>kinda feels like a cheaters way of doing a back tail
Thats because you ARE doing a fakie back tail. When it comes to (most) fakie ledge variations, you are simply doing the normal version of a trick but going backwards. A fakie front tail would be rolling up with the ledge behind you and popping into (fakie ollie) a normal frontside tailside. Matt Bennett here is doing a fakie (ollie into) frontside nose slide. It sounds like you are doing a fakie (ollie into) backside tail slide.
the same reason why a fakie (ollie into) switch 5-0 is a fakie nose grind, you are simply doing a backwards riding nose grind. This goes back to early skating before switch was a thing, that’s why an older skater like Gonz is getting his tricks name right and others would get confused as to why it’s a back 5-0 despite rolling up frontside. If he locked into the curb on the same foot he popped the tail with, he’d be doing a fakie back tail. Technically, a fs half cab front tail would be rolling up with the ledge behind you and spinning 270 into a normal front tail slide

all that said, I guess it doesn't really matter, because a fakie back tail turns into a fakie front crooked grind if you decide to lock in with your trucks instead of your tail. just makes it easier to talk about tricks, when someone says they did a fakie back tail or fakie front nose, i know what they're talking about, unless they're just confusing themselves because they don't understand the reasoning behind the name.

Nice spoiler retard. Also you shouldn't fuck with your hip flexors too much, and first make sure it's a sprain and not a strain. It would probably be best to give it rest instead of torturing it with stretches for a bit.

thats how Ive been working on those tricks on the curb. and thats how chicks do their back tails on ledges and it looks fucking awful would not do that.

all youtube trick tutorials are full of people arguing a lot of the tutorials name the trick wrong too its pretty awful that ride channel is a huge offender

>KICKFLIP TAILSLIDE TO FAKER
>This one sounds complicated, but it’s actually easy, which makes it the perfect move to cloak your limited abilities in disguise of, “you almost had it”s. You don’t even need to be able to land kickflips or backtails to do this one–just fling the board a bit and turn your shoulders a tad while putting one foot on the ledge and boom, you’ve just leveled up.
>Once you’ve done this a couple of times it might be good to combine it with some of the tactics mentioned earlier as well. So fling a fake kickflip tailslide, and when it doesn’t work out, skate back to your stretch spot while holding your lower back and reaching the other arm up to the sky in a dramatic motion.

Skating is fucking weird. Every now and then I get down on myselr for not having some fundamental trick on lock, but then I wind up being the only person in a room with a decent ollie or who can hold a manual for more than a second while they're able to do smiths and whatnot.

I think people will naturally gravitate towards tricks/types of skating, but I think that maybe I've been too obsessed with ollies. Though, idk, I have so much fun ollie-ing off funboxes and kickers thst I can easily spend a whole sesh just trying to go high.

Peronally i think the 'tequila makes you crazy' thing is just because if you're drinking margaritas or tequila shots with lime and salt it's really easy to throw back a bunch in a short amount of time so you just get drunker fast. I don't think there is actually any difference in how the alcohol effects you. That's wild if you legitimately felt high. Maybe someone spiked your drink
