I can’t tell you how much your vids have helped an old guy that has never skated until last year.
For this I’m eternally grateful.

I'm a land locked 54 y.o. previous surfer. I recently bought a carver cx 16.5, 17 and 17.5 with different lengths and concave for my 27 y.o. son and I. I'm still skating flat ground to get better. I train on a balance board and will try your strength exercises. Thank you for the skatepark tips! You seem to have the best videos for me. Thank you!!!

Thanks for this! I’m 48 and started surf skating to improve my surfing speed generation and back hand carving turn. The idea of going to a skate park for the first time intimidates me!

You are an amazing teacher, really good grasp of the physics of what is going on and the best way to explain it. you have a true talent for this dude. Thanks for the great info. I used to skate a lot when younger and surf even more. I haven’t been doing much of either in recent years but getting right back into both now at the age of 54. Loving it. Loving the surf skate. Cheers

Lai's deep analysis on muscle and mechanics is mesmerising! like we have been all doing these but we never be able to explain these elements in plain words. Cheers Lai for the in depth analysis

Very good tutorial when learning thanks Shane, we appreciate these videos! Will learn kick turns by starting out small with baby steps and Progress :)

[adamhulin]

Such a great tutorial, I’ve watched a couple times and definitely been finding your pointers very effective and easy to keep in mind as I learn the basics.

[daneroberts]

Your instruction tips are so insightful! Thx

[sharonc]

Your videos are the best 👏🏼 very helpful tips

[hephytekulu]

You make it look and sound very easy. I am inspired to get a skateboard, but might need Stacy to teach me the easy ones before trying out these :D. Another wonderful video!

[kittikunbangchawong]

thank for good videos that hlep me from thailand to improve the surf skate skills

[naXnappy]

Awesome ! please more ! About "the commit" I knew, but I anyway hurt myself pretty hard... my poor knee.. now I'm kind of scared.
please drop in video ! I have the feeling that with a surfskate its harder due to the higher distance.
im a skateboard newbie and i started with surfskate! I love it !!!
Thanks for this great videos !

Thank you man, your vids are golden. Suggestion on a missed point! :) please talk more about that pivot (quick turn, for example on a narrow ramp, or even flat floor). Is not that easy for a beginner to learn that!

[Peter-olhe]

Great tips. And I've just received my #77, super stoked. Now I just have to recover from falling off my old surfskate before trying this one....

I don’t want be too repetitive but your videos are awesome... suggestions, if I may.. make videos about your different skates. And the tuning you do... let’s say for a skate park vs driveway / short spaces. Waterborne vs Carver vs Smoothstar... cheers

[hugoeiroa]

You cant imagine how much this helped me!! I improved a lot in the bowl, i feel the speed!! But my legs are dead, im not that fit! hahahaha. I have a surfskate brand "Slide", have you tryed this ones??

[softbnn]

Hey buddy
Thanks for all the tutorial videos
It's very helpful to learn from your videos. I'm only on my first week of surfskating. One thing though I when at speed my front seems to be really sensitive and I feel really unconfortable as if a little wrong movement will make it out of control. Would you suggest and tips or tricks?
