How I Learned Surfskate Bowl Riding in 30 Days
Спорт
On April 22, 2021, I first attempted to surfskate a bowl. On July 31, I finished my 30-day surfskate bowl riding practice by surfskating at the skate park in Venice Beach, California, the birthplace of both vertical skating and surfskating.
In this surfskate bowl riding tutorial, I document my journey and give you my top 10 tips I learned along the way that will help you learn how to surfskate bowls.

Bro! I can't believe I just heard Shane Lai tell me that! You just made my day. 😊
Man you killed it in Venice Beach! Truly inspiring. I'm 26 years old, hesitant to buy a surfskate for fear of not being able to get the hang of it; but your attitude, discipline and modesty are giving me hope. Thank you so much for sharing
Who gave this remarkable progress DISLIKE? I just bought Carver skate board yesterday to learn, and this video is such an inspiration. I am 66 and a half year old woman and will enjoy my Carver. Wonderful young man. Your daughter must be very proud of you!! Much Aloha
Very encouraging Steve, I'm 57 and just started longboard two months ago, now because of you I purchased a YOW and I'm doing my first practices since last week, very far from reaching your current level but aiming to that in the future!!!!

I’m 59 with only a surfing background but even after 1 week surf skating I’m thinking about bowls. I’ll need body pads. Water is so much more forgiving but far harder to learn on.

Glad to see people in my age group. Started in Jan 2021 at 60. Focused on Carving & Pumping then went on to slides to slow & stop as not feasible on tipsy surf skates as I have waterborne rails on all setups. Next is transition in bowls when there is a chance as there is only bowls in 1 skatepark where I am & competing with roller bladers & skate scooters.

Old head here to! 53 years young. Started skating again in January and discovered surf skate in March. In August right now I’m starting to learn snaps/slides. Old heads unite!

OG here as well- I’m 51 and started a year ago because my 14year old son wanted to skate at park. I figured I may as well join him. Glad I did. I will be getting pads and helmet now. Broke a big toe and herniated back disc but I will be back. Thanks for the encouragement to skate
Man, im 29 y.o. Back in 2020 i was injured (break my leg) with my 34" yow with s5 system. so now in 2021 im still struggling with bowls and scare of any small transitions. Your way makes me more confident to start. If you can i will too. Thanks, appreciate what you're doing. Much love from Russia, Igor
Congratulations Steve! I’m 49 and getting back to skating (surfskate) after 40 year. Your video encouraged me to move forward. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Brazil

Great tutorial and improvement! Love the commitment, and your film-friend deserved a treat :)
This is such a great story! Very inspiring for me, as I am also starting my bowl riding journey. I can identify with the struggle at the beginning. I am now looking forward to continue with persistence until I can shred comfortably.
Glad I found your channel. Thank you for sharing your journey. Very inspirational.

That's impressive man! GJ
Yo the day 1 music video at the end of the vid had me in stitches. Dang gone violins and banjos! Good skating my dude 🔥
Well done man!! Thank you for taking the time to document and put together your progress so articulately for everyone. It's really inspirational for those looking to start skating bowls or vert ramps and I'll be sure to wear the hip /butt protectors I nearly threw out a few years back when I went back to skiing from snowboarding!!
Wow, that was awesome. Your story is inspirational!
Made that look great fun!
This looks really cool. I will start too!
Love this so much...Awesome to see the actual work and reps that go into feeling fluid and confident. Cheers to you! 🤟
Wow! Thanks for this. I'm going to apply your advice and hope we don't get early snow! :)
Awesome comtent! Inspiring, humble, and honest. Very helpful and engaging. Thanks!!!
So inspiring. I wish I could get there as quickly as you did, just gotta find good empty bowls to practice in :)
No pain no gain, my friend!! Congratulations, Steve. 🙌🙌🙌🙌
So inspiring, i like your dedication and hardwork to your surfskating journey, thank you for sharing
Riveting story Steve, i loved !
Love that ending, so smooth
Amazing video and story Steve! I bet you were smiling all the time when bowl riding in Venice. Love it.
Love your vids! I just picked up the Yow Hole shot and you were right about the Meraki truck system being too sensitive for bowl riding. I've tightened the truck quite a bit and it's still very sensitive. Perfect for practicing cut backs but I can't imagine riding a bowl on it.
Complimenti! Grandi progressi!!
Bravo! Practice, practice, practice.
Congrats and thanks for sharing with us! I'm exactly on the same vibe, riding bowls once a week with my surfskate. Of course my progress will take longer than yours, but I'm already very happy to be able to ride the transitions. Unfortunately, here we don't have bowls with the quality you showed, but still, it is very fun.
Wow, this is inspiring, I am just trying to get to grips with this, and suffer from frontside turn anxiety :-). This will surely help me get over that! Thanks mate!
Inspiring! At 47 I restarted skating after more than 20 years and I'm having a blast. There are lots of skateparks now, so I'm really motivated to try bowl and pump tracks, so I'll surely watch your videos. Keep shredding!!!
What a legend, nice one Steve! I’ve not skated in 20 years. I bought my first skateboard a few days ago. Super motivated to surf skate a bowl. Thanks for this excellent blue print for bowl riding and general surfskate. Inspirational channel, keep it up.
Wow, Man! You've inspired me!
Impressive commitment man! I'm impressed how you focused on specifics. I longboard in LDP and tried the other day a pumptrack and I kinda struggled on those sharp turns. I need to focus as hard as you did on these.
Great energy, so positive. I have some injuries on my back that totally were stopping me to think about bowl skating, but to enjoy only cruising. Thanks for sharing this video, very inspirational.
Inspired and educated. Thanks for sharing making the awesome effort. Waipu, NZ.
Really love your Channel.
Loved the video, Steve! I live 5 minutes from the Temecula skate park so I’m looking for a different place to learn to bowl ride! Keep up the great content!
Really Impressive man!!!....WhattaFFlow🤙
Love it ! Inspirational
well done you are an inspiration, Thanks
Nice progression and tips.
Awesome video! I just started hitting verts yesterday, my gf recorded me and I’m like your day one. Lol. Funny as hell. Love the tips and seeing your progress, will apply them next time I hit the park!
Great and helpful content, Pat is such an amazing guy, replied to my email on a Sunday with swift response and turnaround. Amazing customer service and product, love Waterborne!
Congrats guy 🔥🔥
This is so inspiring! I am soooo proud of you and your hard work!
Great Vid! Got you another sub. yesterday was the first time in a bowl in 14 years! 42 yr old, I understand the lack of mobility and will defo pursue some yoga over our winter to correct my stiffness issues. I used a waterborne setup and loved it, but going to get some carver cx's or c5's for a bowl specific setup! Keep doing your thing man!!
Awesome progress mate
Dude this was AWESOME!! Many thanks for sharing! Best regards from Brasilia, Brazil.
Exactly... mic drop!! Good job man!! 🤙
Very well done mate! Inspiring for all surfskaters above 40

Man just!!!!! 👏👏👏 I trully admire your discipline!!!! What a way to check the list!!!!
This is very encouraging as I’m getting started with surf skate as a 30 year old. I recently just started skateboarding a couple of months ago and I’ve been dropping in some half pipes and it’s nothing like doing it on the surf skate.
🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏🏻, Dude that was so awesome dude, you even lost weight throughout the process. Oh my gosh, I just feel like going home and start practicing, very awe inspiring. Thank you so much for all of the tips! Your channel is fire!
