Trick Tips
IN THIS LESSON
START OFF LEARNING FAST!
Once you skate for a little while, doing trick with a little bit of momentum becomes the mood. I’m not sure if the translation worked well in the video so let me explain here. When you’re stationary, your board wants to roll back and forward, when you go to try the trick. If you’re moving, you already have momentum forward, so your board won’t go backwards. It cuts out one direction the board can go when you don’t want it to. Don’t know if that made it any easier to understand, but at first, you wanna be stationary. If you can’t ride effortlessly, then you’ll be too focused on the effort required to ride, and that’ll throw off what you need to do for the trick.
