Takes a lot to give that a go for the first time. Fair play!

You'll nail it next time young fella. 🤘

Here’s some tips: On vertical ramps, don’t lean forward they much and crouch down much more than a normal ramp

47 years old. Started skating again after 30 years. Today slammed hard during a bowl drop in. Wanted to call it day after that. Said to myself that I couldn’t leave like that and did 4 more successful drop ins. I’m hurting but my pride is intact. I have nothing but respect for that man…

You got that! Bend your knees, stomp those front bolts, and be patient while riding it out cause vert ramps are huge and take a sec

Do it
But I’ll get
There !!!’nn

Man, this happened to me my first time too. Just make sure your arm didn’t break, holy shit.

I’m 39 and started learning this year. I am currently battling drop in fear. This doesn’t help hahahaha. I hope your ribs are ok 😮

#goatmoneygang skating ain’t easy Big UPs

pads are a life saver - definitely still a bump but not NEAR as bad if you didn't rock pads. Props

That dude has kids. He didn’t feel it.

Gnarly bro you committed, but slipped out youll get it soon enough 😊

[datroller]

bend down until you get to the bottom dont stand up too early

How does one prevent something like this on a two foot ramp?💀

[jameshinton]

Was wondering if he was going to smack forward or loop out backward.

[annafere]

The fall is not about age - he doesn't have the technic down.

[evenoddprime]

That looks like permanent shoulder damage and 6 weeks of broken ribs.

[NataliaSoboleva-fqfh]

I cant even do normal ramp, i can only do mini ramp

[mikkovulli]

Yo would you recommend the same technique for an 46y old skater?

[edgarvelazquez]

What did you think was gonna happen bro?
