>Skateboarding is 90% mind 10% body.
Bullshit. If you're just getting started, it's more like 70/30 with 70 being body, until you build the correct muscles and muscle memory, then it's transposed. Most good skaters have no fucking mind to speak of, they don't fucking think. They are, however, physcially fit and... wait. They have no minds, but they are good? Maybe it is 90% mental, but they have that aspect removed, like the equivalent of retard strength, but for skating? If you have a brain you cannot skate well. No, Mark Suicune is not smart and autismo powers like Andy Autison and Rowdy Rodney Mullers is cheating.

I think I finally figured out how I want my kickflips. My feet were too close together and front foot too much off the side. Also I was popping the tail too much toe side to try to balance myself from not turning when setting up. Basically, front foot 45 degree angle, just behind the front bolts, back foot right on the tip of the center, shoulders straight and weight kind of leaning forward. Im just not used to the hang time and the tail coming up so high when I get a good pop yet.

It says on the Woodshop directory they're PS Stix boards. There's only so many major woodshops producing boards and it's more about shape and press preference over anything else. I like Chapman boards personally though many people prefer smaller brands like Pennswood that is made in the USA or else DSM Resin 7 who make a solid, long lasting shape.

guys - i've been stuck on tre's for a while... i don't really practice them much but was wondering if anyone had the same issue as i or tips..

I can spin the board 360 perfectly under me but I always land upside down. the kickflip never finishes and I always land basically perfectly on the bottom of the board. everytime i try to kind of "kick" harder the board flies away or something else. i keep hearing its all in the back foot but I'm RARELY able to land on the board right side up.

Anonymous at Fri, 12 Jul 2024 17:50:45 UTC No. 204014

>>204013
It is all in the back foot, but your front foot still guides the flip. Simply adjust your front foot position. Don't try to flick harder keep focusing on the scoop. When I'm under flipping them I find its because I'm pointing my toes too much on my front foot.

you need to get your front foot out of the way faster as weird as it seems.. flick earlier and earlier. basically you are flicking too late like a kickflip. you want to flick right away. it also helps to put ur front foot lower and lower on the board. the more ur foot is closer to the bolts the more it will interfere. let me know if this helps.. flick super early and/or bring ur foot lower than the middle of the board

why are kickflips so much more popular than heelflips? the heelflip actually makes your flick foot kick out much more than kickflips. Do you (personally) use your heel for heelflips? I haven't learned them yet but the trick tutorials I see say to use the upper outside part to flick like in a kickflip.

Anonymous at Wed, 17 Jul 2024 06:53:05 UTC No. 204385

For heelflips you just kick out and the flip is easier than a kickflip but the landing is harder as it has a tendency for the board to end up behind you. The heel is the last part to make contact with the board but you use most of the sole for the flick.

Normies can’t differentiate between the two desu

I use my pinky toe to guide and flick out. I found it’s not so much about the heel that completes the flick desu that just helps with the follow through. I land them more consistently when I put more pressure on the heel side back pocket of the tail

Its about the principle of it. If bald timmy owns the land then it ceases to belong to the community. Tim has also stated that he is actively using skateboarding to push his worldview.

No. It's a heinous and hideous trick, and it does nothing to help you progress in any other facet of skating. It's a circus trick that is only impressive to normies. Learn how to actually hardflip.

Also, I just got back from skating. It was a good session.

started at 25, 31 now can ollie and didn't practice it at all just stick to pumping back and fourth on the half pipe part of the local bowl and eventually you'll have the muscles to just do it, you jump as if it were just a flat floor beneath you and on your way up you tap the tail to pop it up and then lean forward to level it out
on flat practice pushing forward and backward for both regular, switch and regular mongo and switch mongo and you'll never fall again

it depends how high you can jump with just your legs. Also I think a lot of people mess up thinking they have to slide their front foot. It does slide on the grip tape to level up, but first your front foot actually goes straight up, then forward and down.

I went batshit trying to perfect my ollies when I first started. Would literally do them non-stop for half hour, daily until I had to take week-long breaks because I was fucking myself up too much. It is easy to start getting the motion, but to have the balance to do nicely popped and controlled ollies takes fucking ages. I would recommend doing them fakie as well. I ignored fakie ollies entirely, then started doing some this weekend and realised it's not as intimidating as I thought and much easier to get them to feel nice and floaty.

Just out of curiosity, how where you fucking yourself up practicing flat ground ollies??? For me personally when I was starting out going really low through your knees helped me a lot. Practicing pop shuv its helps a lot for your pop too. Practice daily, but don't forget to switch it up a little as well. Also standing next to a stair or ledge or anything to land on to helps a ton.

>Just out of curiosity, how where you fucking yourself up practicing flat ground ollies
Here's a few reasons: being out of shape, not having any of the muscles developed for/from skating a lot, being in my mid 30's, not resting enough in between sessions, going too hard for my physical fitness level each session, doing this stuff on top of weight lifting/cardio. That probably covers it. When I say 'fucking myself up', I just mean getting physcially exhuasted and having to take longer breaks from over-doing it, which is expected. This shit is hard unless you have been doing it a lot from a young age.

oh, and just to be clear, when i say practicing for half hour each session, I mean doing them constantly without much breaking because I was fucking obsessed. So doing 10 odd attempts in a minute, maybe stopping for 30s, then doing another 10, and repeat for a good half hour solid. I think that's physcially taxing for most people. I would also do this on top of doing 2-3 hour skate sessions twice a week. Real dumb shit stuff, but hey, I would say I have a nice ollie now at least.

Actually I learned all my basics when I was 11 and 12 waaay back in the day and haven't really learned that much new flatground stuff over the years. A lot of my homies who started skating at a later age can only really do tranny stuff and suck anything street, can barely pop an ollie or a 180. So I commend you for learning the basics at a later age. Gonna try to commit to learning some new flip tricks myself. first time I will really obsessively practice flatground stuff since the 2000's probably.

It's all I got. I have a well popped and fairly floaty ollie, decent height, nice and levelled, but literally can't do any other flatground trick and refuse to commit when I do try. Working on it, though. Got the foundations set to land fs 180, pop shove and a kickflip, but I just gotta get the balls to commit to them moving. All it takes is one cunt to encourage me, but I don't get to skate much these days and when I do it's usually alone.

mmm, you'll get there. A kickflip is definitely a step above a pop shuv and a 180 those shouldn't be that hard. Actually you could try doing fakie 180's I think they come easier for some people. Think of fakie 360s on flatground a lot of people can do them but regular ones are pretty fucking hard.

To be fair, this would only extend until ANYBODY bought the land. If Baldybeanie conserves the park, doesn't go changing it all up(as he is now entitled to do) or throwing his weight around about X.Y,Z then it's probably far safe in his ownership than if, say, McDonalds bought the land.

Nobody wanted to go near him. And he was right. He didn't have a board sponsor for a while until he got back on Zero, and he rides(rode) for some weird South American reboot of Fallen footwear. It was like some sort of open secret that he was a piece of shit. So he wasn't going to get any big contracts after that.

tl;dr wife beater and lots of people knew

i agree for the most part but the way he went about it was lame as fuck and obviously out of spite then he wonders why the locals want nothing to do with him and part of me even thinks it's lame that the locals rejected his prize money like yeah tim pool sucks but money is money that 12k, 6k and 2k cash prizes could have really helped people out in the community. i'd be pissed if i was a local ripper that actually stood a chance to catch a bag like that but some fuck from the diy said no

>For trying to bring politics into his local skateboarding diy community
I ended up wasting my time watching the video and the truth is somewhere in the middle. As usual reddit lover is your typical leftycuck with his shitty non arguments. He was shilling for nike in the video in fact. On the other hand the people on his podcast don't skate and have no idea about anything. Tim sucks ass from watching his clips although he does in fact skate so he's part of the """community""" either way. The take away I got from this is that probably in the past he was being excluded due to his political views because the skaters there are cringecucks, as evident by some IG post that was shared, and also by common sense, and now he has a grudge or some shit. If I was him I'm destroying the DIY. Since he's not though these little hoes should stop crying. Also his board in the background is cringe. Looks like some revive shit.

I need your advice. It may be possible that I am retarded.

I just started to learn skating and I am still trying to figure out wether I should go regular or goofy.
My dominant foot is the right one. It's also the one where I can keep my balance better. My brain tells me to use the right foot at the front, so goofy.

But as soon as I would try to ollie (not that I can already) my brain tells me that my right foot should be at the back to pop the board.

When I use the left foot at the front, It feels much unsafer and everything becomes hard.

What should I do? Should I force my self to go regular but have the right feeling for tricks or should I go goofy and pop with the left foot which feels bad?

Stop thinking about ollies and learn to just ride around. Ride up and down banks. Ride in mellow transition. Go as fast as you possibly can comfortably. Your stance will naturally reveal itself.

Yeah, usually I don't have to worry about them that early in the morning. This dude showed up at 8am.

It can be once you start actually doing tricks, but it won't matter until you have a solid foundation of being comfortable on your board. Seriously, learn to tic tac, learn to revert, learn to manual on flat, get comfortable lifting your board by the tail to turn, bend your knees, carve around. If you can already ride comfortably when you begin to ollie it will be easy as hell to learn.

Doing stationary ollies on grass or carpet is what will build bad habits in my opinion.

i think goofy is the objectively stronger stance cause you are using your right and dominant foot to flick the board. any foot can pop the tail. popping the tail is simple compared to the precision required to flick a bunch of different ways to do flatground tricks

agree with other anons to go goofy. I have better balance on my left leg so I ride regular. The pop for ollies comes mostly from the ankle and most of the jump happens on your stronger leg. It just takes time and practice.

>>204897
I get what you're saying as someone who learned skateboarding young and started at guitar later and picked up some sloppy habits in my playing. (which I embrace) Outside of the mongo pushing which you really do get used to and is hard to get rid off. Like the other anon said, you learn everything sloppy then it gets better then it becomes clean just with practice so don't overthink it just practice a lot and be consistent. And most importantly don't be a pussy. Don't chicken to drop in, ollie the 5 stair. Technique is overrated, fearlessness and confidence is where it is at.

The stance thing, apparently Ali Boulala learned how to skate regular even though he is left footed so then he switched and then he became like really good at skating switch. So even if you learn it wrong you will need to learn nollies and switch stuff so it really doesn't matter. You need to put in the hours and not be a pussy.

You people are fucking retarded. try doing it, push mongo. look at your foot how much further you can put your foot on the ground. mongo = more speed when pushing this is a fact. The only reason why regular pushing is preferable is because you can get in to your stance easier/quicker. which yes when having a short run up to say a long stair or something can be tricky. I am known to skate insanely fast actually. People have called me the local John Cardiel.

I pushed mongo for maybe 3 years before some older person told me not to. I am capable of both and when my legs are tired on long skates I alternate. I thought you were full of shit but reading this it makes sense. You can full open your hips and get a bigger push from mongo. The downside being the readjustment you probably lose some speed vs the efficiency of normal pushing.
Also maybe your dominant leg matters, I skate regular and my right foot is stronger so, I feel I get a better push off it than my left.

goofy, then learn nollies
keep in mind with an ollie though, you actually gotta move your front foot away first then pop with the spot under your big toe in the back. gaining pop really wont be an issue once your just used to the spot on your foot you gotta aim at, the bigger issue is more catching the board and landing, (aka whichever foot your more balanced on, the front ya dig)

tldr your goofy dumbass. go ride forward for 4 hours straight down some trails and stop worrying about what will happen when you try learning tricks, if you cant push comfy and naturally everything that follows is moot.

Nice to see some new tech, even if it's not a ton. Full-cab lip from Leal and the switch smith (I think that's new?) from Heyn. Hating this complete disregard of the run if you hit three better-scored tricks, though.

Sucks Yumeka didn't make it, she probably had some tech. Anyone catch her heat? I read she just bombed hard.

I had some 85A wheels laying around and decided to put them on an old board to cruise around on. Pretty amazed at how they basically float on rough pavement. Still easy to pop ollie's and I was a bit worried about wheel bite but had no issues. Anyone skate soft wheels on their regular set up? I quite like them but they are pretty big. Never really thought about the hardness of my wheels before.

Not sure why they would affect your pop, unless you just mean the extra height from how much bigger they are? I used to have softer wheels because my local (and all pavements and roads everywhere around me) is crusty as fuck, but I revert way too much to warrant keeping them on my regular set up, even though it was so much smoother and easier to gain speed. I think they were 85a clouds. I have some 60mm 78a OJ's on a 8.25 that I use for the rare occasion I cruise around the streets and that shit is so smooth and fast even on the fucking bombsite condition roads around me.

the problem with soft wheels is either power slides or nose slides etc. I want to get a hybrid or at least 97a next time I buy wheels. 101a is pretty hard on my feet when I just cruise long distance.

I have the 54mm 97a spitfires and they are great. Still slide fine, but takes the edge off rougher ground. It's not a massive difference, but enough if you switch skate spots enough and can't be fucked changing the wheels all the time or carrying around extra set ups.

You saw it at previous tournaments where he was starting to nail his complete runs, too. Like how the fuck do you do runs with heel front lip and big-heel board on the big rail as well as a bunch of other variety with flip back lips and trading it out next run for crook nollie flip, and get an 89? Then dude does a heel noseblunt and gets a 92 like huh what?

Nah, being a front blunt on top of a ledge makes turning into it and balancing while retaining proper momentum harder IMO. In a vacuum Yuto's trick is harder, but a big thing is the fear factor of fucking-up when not having it down, and the difference in obstacle swings it. Yuto's is a lot more "auto" when you're going through the motions, IMO.

Still, his two tricks on top of his run were worth Gold. That nollie back 180 5-0 was mint.

When I was teenager back in the early 2010s not a single person I skated with talked about or did slappies. I basically lived at my local too, and there were no curbs there. Nowadays that very same local has parking blocks that someone moved into the park and other parks near me that have curbs are completely blackened when back then they were untouched. I think they've grown in popularity for oldheads as they are a very low impact trick that you can get pretty creative with. They also seem trendy enough that younger skaters are doing them too.

This. We even had a 6 inch concrete ledge at my local waxed to shit that barely grinded and I don't remember a single slappy going down.
I guess slappy noseslides actually but that was just how you learnt to nose slide.

I just remembered I think pat duffy slappys a curb after a rail. I think Americans were slappy grinding those red curbs way back maybe.

slappys were super popular in the 80s. in the mid 90s skating started getting gay and cool and gangster (see the movie mid 90s) and a lot of 80s tricks got out of fashion. Oldschool tricks regained popularity in the late 2000s with indie youtube skaters etc

Yeah you’re right. There was even a bunch of tech built back then like lappers for navigating curbs and slappies.

They were always a thing but they were definitely not popular during the 90s/00s. I remember a resurgence of popularity in the early 10s and it sorta took off from there. In about 2010 I saw Callum Paul doing them in a video and that was probably the first time I'd ever heard of them in Australia. Australia doesn't really have curbs that are good for slappies so it never really took off there.

I haven't gotten better in 20 years, only maintained. This is my life as a 35-year-old boomer skater who always wonders where the time went.

Hey, you guys. At the timestamp in this video, the address is 1234; and the rail has four segments (that also get shorter with each segment). Do you think Mr. Anderson did that on purpose?

One of the coolest places in Helsinki imo, too bad they're going to demolish it to build some office/arena thing. They were allowed to build this thing temporarily, but now it's been there for like fifteen years so it'll be a shame to see it go

how do lots of people in shittier climates even skate? indoor parks started dying off around 2010 because lots of places got outdoor parks built. people used to bitch about lack of town parks so that's why they started building all of the outdoor ones, but it came at the consequence of payed indoor parks losing business. now if you live somewhere that has rain every other week, you don't even get to skate that much. I miss indoor parks, even if they were overpriced.

Find a parking garage, but I miss indoor parks too. Why the fuck are they so hard to find. The only skateparks I like near me are the community made ones, but still outdoors.

I feel lucky to have one within half hour drive of where I live, but also feels like a slight monkey paw. It's usually busy on the days you want to use it most (like when it's rainy, which is constantly here) and then you spend 10mins standing next to about 10 other guys waiting for your turn on a small obstable where your run will last about 30 seconds. There's no where to wait that isn't in the way of someone else without losing your place and getting snaked constantly, either. The layout is decent if the park is fairly quiet, otherwise I'd rather just not skate.

My city recently built an indoor park and honestly i rather just not skate during the winter kek they charge out the ass for membership, the people that run it suck and the layout is retarded, on top of being too small and getting packed when more than 4 people are there. i rather just snowboard in the winter.
