5 Mistakes Beginner Skateboarders Make
Switching it up a little with this one. Of course these don't apply to everyone but they are definitely things I've seen beginner skaters deal with. Keep in mind, the things I talk about in this video don't just apply to ollies and kickflips. The same concepts can be used for learning any new tricks.
I hope that if you've dealt with any of these problems that this video can help you getcho mind right and focus!
Thank you for watching!
Thank you to Patreon supporter Jeff Bowring for helping me continue doing what I'm doing and getting me closer to my goal of making these videos better and uploads more consistent.

    Age is a state of mind. Old man here as well. Been skating since the mid/late 80s. My problem is I skated half pipes and pools for the longest time, so when I eventually went to earn street tricks, I was like damn this is hard. Still can't do more than a few basic flips but still work on them when when I get the urge.

But the automn has come and there's less and less time to skate for me because of constant raining and temperature going down every week. But I go out and skate whenever I get a chance. Just keep going, baby stepping even! And have fun while doing it! Because that's what matters!

    Hey I've been at it for a year and I'm 40. up until now I pretty much only practiced my basic tricks stand still. Started hitting the pavement recently (pretty much in the literal sense) and falling all the time. I do it for the fun though, and the key to that is to be alright if it doesn't work out. It's alright not to skate when you don't feel like it. As long as you want it you'll get it. Don't make it a competition. In skateboarding you don't have to.

    Yellow Gamer Hey man I was the same. I've been skating for around 4 years but I was really casual about it and progressed really slow. The last couple months I got completely bummed out by skating and thought of quiting. But you can't. You can't give up. Like VL said, take a break when you need it, but don't give up. Even if you only skate once or twice a month, as long as you enjoy that time, then you're enjoying skateboarding.

  • @whmozart

    Yeah Jed I agree. There are few things I enjoy doing in life (besides skating) I like playing music and painting, but as soon as the things you love become a responsibility or you're being pressured into doing it, no matter how much you love it you will hate it in the end after a surprisingly short amount of time. It's the same for skating. If you force yourself and make it feel like a job you will hate it. This is all my own personal experience/opinion though, but I found if I skate only when I feel like it then I do much better than when I said I HAVE TO PRACTICE. And those callings come much more often if you let them happen organically too. Bottom line is: Skate for yourself and no one else. Also, the skateboarding community is the most understanding and respectful community of that philosophy than any other field. props to you guys that shred it, never made me feel bad about being old and a beginner, never.

    Thanks for this video man! I started last year at 49 years old. I'm 50 and still at it. This was great because it's not that I am getting discouraged but I need to push myself a little harder and commit to learning to ollie. I can ollie a little holding onto a railing(gotta start somewhere)but need to start going for it! Your vids on that subject are great too. Thanks again and keep 'em coming!

    Just read this in 2022 and it would be really interesting if youre still skating, i started out like 2 days ago and i fell and it felt like i broke my ass and my whole soul but i kept going a little and then i was a little discouraged to go out earlier this evening but i took my board and did it anyways, found a little spot too which was really nice!

    I couldn't agree more. Best advice ever! I've been doing all these mistakes for a year: landing a few ollies, then tried thousands of kickflips never landing a single one. I've done this for hours and hours, going crazy, losing my motivation. In the end it was more like "work" rather than "pleasure". I would just add one thing: don't stay in the same skating spot, especially when you can't land something, otherwise you'll start hating this spot.
