I bought a skateboard a month ago. I am a total beginner. The first weeks a just rode a lot with my board trying to get comfortable. Now I have begun training ollie standing still and with speed. Since I have no one to skate with I would very much appreciate if someone could look at my video and give my any pointers if I am doing it right. I dont want to practice it with wrong techniqe.
That’s a decent ollie for four weeks in. Your front foot looks quite far back but it worked so
Like Franc says, just get out there and do it faster now
Thanks for the feedback. I guess I’m on the right track then. I will continue to do more ollies with speed! And just ride a lot more to get confidence and control.
I went to a skate park near by (when it was almost empty bc I am kind of embarressed, there are kids there how a much better and Iam 30 ish, haha). I tried to do ollies with obstacles bc it seem easier when there is acutually something that you can ollie on (two videos).
I keep practice and also want to ask, what is the next step after ollies? I want to always to have something in my mind thats my next progress.
The next steps are only limited by your imagination brooo! In all seriousness though, if you’re doing this after one month you’re clearly some kind of prodigy who will be embarrassing pros by the end of the year.
I’m sorry if this is spam, but there is no one among my friends who skate so this is the only place I can look for feedback and follow my own progress But if this is not allowed of course I Will stop spamming in this thread.
I’m happy, you’re happy. I’d think it’s just practice and pushing yourself at this point now? Nothing wrong with having a beginners thread I guess? Which this should maybe be turned into?
This might sound a bit odd but it might help to think of landing more switch than fakie, which would have implications for what will become your trailing leg, your trailing foot placement, your weight and your shoulders. You don’t have to do them over a rail though. - YouTube
