SKATEBOARDING FOR THE FIRST TIME *help*! Learning to skateboard tips (beginner skating vlog)

it's finally time to skateboard for the first time as a beginner skater. I'm learning to skateboard in 7 days which may be my next skating vlog!
Girl... ngl I tried to show you guys the skateboarding tips i learned from other skating vlogs but I was definitely very far off. I kinda butchered all these 'tricks for beginners' because I'm unstable lol but if you want to learn how to do ollies for beginners then hopefully these few steps can help you out :D

Wait you actually learn so quickly no joke, attempting an Ollie on the same day u learn how to push is insane

[itsharrybailey]

“Things were too good to be true which meant it was time to self sabotage” literally my thought process 😭

[mcchicken]

can we just appreciate the fact that she actually did what we asked.

[tary]

This is just crazy entertaining. The music, the jokes, the editing. I’m so happy I found your channel 🙌🏻

[alexandrasalazar]

BUT YOU DID SO WELL, I’ve tried for 4 days and I can’t still last more than 6 seconds on the skateboard HAJAHA

[itskaitlyna]

I STAN THIS GIRL WITH ALL OF MY HEART ❤

[chisom]

for someone who just got a skateboard, you were doing very good!! when i first got on i couldnt even stand still😭 you have such great balance! definetly keep going !

[anzaeria]

You do have good balance. I think you did great with your first time on a skateboard. Though I don't recommend the ollie as a first trick. There are many easier tricks you can try beforehand. And don't forget to practise the carving turns where you put more weight on your toe side edge or heel side edge (alternating between the two.)

[AudreyMayy]

Okay this was actually really impressive ! I've ordered a longboard and I'm so nervous to start cause everyone I watch is so amazing so it's cool to watch a new person at it

[horizontaldiaries]

"I found a parking garage where I can go ape shit in"😂Love your white pants!! All of the camera angles are so good!! Every time I click on one of your videos I just know I'm going to have the most entertainment ahah loved this!!

[leah-leighcraayenstein]

As someone who's been on a skate board and roller skates when she said "this is much harder than rollerskating" I almost cried because for me it's the opposite 💀

[Pcw]

Absolutely love your videos! Came here originally for your rollerskating videos but turns out all of your videos are very comforting. Must be one of the most underappreciated channels on youtube, they deserve so much more views, especially with the amount of care you seem to put in every one of them. Keep up the amazing work!

[parnianhallajian]

I love the energy, effort and creativity you put into your videos ♥️

[ThePimlicoripper]

You’re a G. I’ve practically just started too. Got my balance, as far as tricks go I’m not there yet. Love this upload. This time next year, we’ll be smashing it!

[wannabepoet]

literally every video of yours is worth watching

[jayda]

When you said "im just gonna try an ollie" i was like already straight into an ollie you gotta get comfortable with your board first

[bosswoman]

Yea to turn you lean in the direction you wanna turn, and you have to loosen the trucks (you’ll notice between the wheels on the axle thing there is a cylindrical thing that has a thing on it to loosen), and that way they move so you can turn (I had to watch a YouTube video to learn how to ride a skateboard).

Also they recommend learning an Ollie first because it’s the basis for many other tricks (like a kick flip, pop shuv-it, nollie, etc.).

Also, the jumping in the air thing might actually be a good technique to work on how your legs move (like I can do an Ollie with the pop and everything but my back leg never leaves the ground hardly so the board doesn’t go very high). So I might actually borrow that, thank you.

[JonesYHF]

Wasn’t bad you know, problem is a lot of people don’t realise at this stage an ollie is the last thing you should be worrying about, you need to “become one” with just rolling around, pushing and feeling comfortable with being on the board, people often worry about what people think and honestly no one cares, skaters know how hard it is, they have all been through the same falls and scrapes, 99% of people give up quickly because it’s not easy and takes time, you can kick a ball, shoot a hoop as soon as you pick it up and see progression, all extreme sportsmen/women have the same traits, addictive personalities, a never give up attitude, and sometimes quite reclusive, we’re all the same and it creates a lot of very strong friendships, if you need help skating, go to your local skatepark and talk to people, might be the best thing you’ll ever do!

[monksgamingchannel]

This is absolutely glorious! I just picked up a Skateboard for the first time, age 31. I feel the pain, no balance whatsoever and I'm also NOT a gymnast :P

[diviniyt]

I've been learning for a month and don't know how to do an ollie yet but here you are! A one day learner who knows how to do an ollie! Its amazing!! Enjoy your time skateboarding
