just landed my first axle stall, feeble stall, and feeble grind. the “stand on the coping” was repeating in my head and that helped a lot. you’re a legend bro thank you

This makes so much sense. I'm trying to learn this trick at the moment and I'm doing exactly what you talk about a quick stall on the inside of the ramp. The putting your weight on the heels is the simply bit I have been missing but I didn't know until I heard you say it. It's crazy to think that I missed such a basic thing out but I guess thats what most people do when they doing things wrong. Thanks man great vid.

I've been filming myself every so often with the camera aimed down along the coping. Being able to watch myself, I quickly realised what I felt was good, was often the problem described here. I thought I could do 5050s, but on camera they were mostly just like a slash grind on both trucks, rather than a 5050 on top of the coping. Pumping for speed helps, and I've started getting up on feebles which gives me the sensation of getting upright more which is helping to improve the axle stalls. 5 years later and this vid is still relevant!

Just got my axle stalls today! Watched this tutorial before I left to the skatepark this morning. Thanks for the tips 🥳

I’m at the skatepark right now and was struggling with them. Watched up until 1:04 when you mentioned weight on the heel. & I got it first try! Thanks so much!

You're the best at breaking it all down 👌🏼

So many videos about this trick and I can't remember anyone mentioning putting pressure on the heels!! I feel this is the key element I was missing, thanks Chad!

Really appreciate your videos ... show the finer points to many tricks Keep up the good work

This is great. It made it click in my head. Now to go try it out.

I’ve got so many of these stall tricks on lock on one mini ramp. Then I start skating bowls and these plaza style parks and I can’t axle stall on any of this. I fly out to the deck basically no matter what I do. I’m hoping I can take this “stand on the coping” advice and start making this work. And I’m hoping I can use this to be able to deal with the speed judgement difficulties that come with bowls and plaza style spots. I appreciate you man. Thank you!

You the Man

Thanks for good instructions.

This helped alot thanks

This helped me a lot. My problem was i was coming up at an angle and couldnt get to the top to stand up on it. Once i started riding straight until my back truck hit i nailed them!

Great video. I always seem to turn too early and only get my front truck on before coming back down.

Great work, nice! I just started skating again after 20 years off. I can't stall consistently (lmao), and then I started to realize I needed more weight on my back heel, just like you said. But I didn't realize, I am trying to put too much truck onto the copping. Great tip man. I can hear the cells in my wrists and knees thanking you already.

Sooooo helpful !

Thank you

Finally A good video

Great explanation Chad. Can you do a Rolling into (drop-in) a mini vid? Cheers n beers man!

If you find your weight is always inside the ramp and you can only axle stall for a quick second before you have to go back in try this: I swear someone left a comment on this video saying to put your trucks on the coping and start/drop in that way like you’re coming back in from an axle stall. For some reason that’s what made it work for me. It showed my brain how my weight should be when I get to the coping. I struggled with this for years before I tried it, and once I did, I finally got axle stalls right.

Frontside air next trick it's hard for me to do this axle stall I keep leaning forward into the ramp thank you for the info about putting weight on your heel

Chad you rip, man. Watched that video of you back smithing that ancient vert ramp in Greenport. Trying to work on my transition skills and like how you explain tricks without getting overly pedantic.

Awesome!

We always called these 50/50 stalls. That was back in the 90’s. I also never had trouble locking in all the way on top. Didn’t cause me to get hung up.

Hi, thanks for all your vidéos. Great job. My question : What IS the Size and high of these ramp ? Thx

i tried my first axle stall drop in on my birthday on the 4th of november over rotated and slammed hard on my elbow as it was a small mini ramp, fractured elbow only starting to heal properly now !!, but I've got the pads for the good weather coming in 2021, wish me luck !!!!

The scariest thing, standing up straight on the coping😂 I still can't get used to it

Can you do a tutorial for backflip to rock to fakie and yes this is a serious request?

I've always had a hard time with these. I can drop in on vert, get weak rocks and backside airs but going from in the transition to out of it is hard for me.

lol the autogenerated youtube subtitles mangled your name into "jackaroo" when you introduce yourself at the beginning of the video. thanks for the quick tutorial dude, I just learned rock to fakie and I wanna figure out these next

Thanks for making this, if anyone doesn’t feel safe not putting the whole truck on, then put the entire truck on, and shift your back foot forward to be barely on the coping before going back in

I like your videos. If you could give a how to Ollie and frontside Ollie (not sure which is easier) on transition that would be great. Also, do you know how to frontside air? Just curious cause you seem like you’ve been skating a while but I’ve never seen you do it

do a video on heelflips...been skating forever and can't heel for the life of me

Hey Chad, hope you are well. May sound silly but a quick question: could I put the board on top of the mini ramp and just turn in to learn that movement first, then focus on staking up to the coping and performing the axle stall?

fucking love this channel just getting back into skating and i always shy-ed away from transition when i was younger. i definitely owe some mini ramp bails to my younger self

I recently learned how to axle and feeble. How do you roll out fakie?

Cool!

Do a kick flip on to the copping

what's the song at the ending of the video? It's really cool

Hey man, excellent tutorials thanks so much for making them. I'm trying to get better at mini ramp but the issue I'm having is transferring my weight to the vertical to be standing on the coping. I can slash grind no problem but stopping my momentum and being up on a mini ramp is difficult. I can do it on a 3' quarter pipe but my local mini is about 4-5' and I just feel like my weight is in the wrong spot. Any tips appreciated!

But I could not get Into the stall until I watched this video it explained exactly what I need to do and now I can kiss the copin with both trucks but I am having difficulty getting up on top of the copin to like do that cool stand there and flex for a second I kinda like feel to far forward I am trying to throw my shoulder back and land on top to copin but I just can't do it i end up in like febal stall position

I’ve done many axel stalls before on mini-ramps and quarterpipes but trying to stall on a pro full size halfpipe, I feel like I’m learning all over again. Every attempt I make I bail... hard. Lol. Is it the steep incline that is hard to get over??? Do I need more practice just riding and getting used to the pipe perhaps? This half pipe is pretty scary but I want to own it.

Interesting.. it could be a fear thing that’s causing you subconsciously take your foot off. Try dropping in from axle stall position a bunch of times to get used to it before locking in. Practice that on whichever size quarter pipe you feel comfortable on and work your way up.

put your wheel to the coping so the coping sits at the edge of the truck that's towards the deck of the ramp. the left side if you stand regular.. really put your wheel next to the coping - slide there by pushing your back foot towards the transition. Then just turn your shoulders and drop in - don't worry about how it might feel to have your wheel come over the coping - it's not any different than a kickturn! Hope this helps

Hey.. I can’t stand upright for some reason. I have the lock in but I keep wanting to lean forwards into the ramp. And the board like springs out from under me. That and I can’t stand upright when I first lock on with the truck.

great tutorial!! I’ve been trying to do axle stall for about 7 months now and this trick doesn’t come to my head at all. I even did some 50-50 grind however my body is inside the ramp instead of the deck. I notice that when I’m almost hitting the coping, my backshoulder and my back arm is pointing to the nose of the skateboard... this makes me stall in kind of feeble most of the times. 1-) which spot do you look when you approaching the coping AND after you feel the coping with your back truck? 2-) Do you pump and leave your body lightweight when your are approaching the coping? thanks man! I appreciate any help as this trick is getting so hard for me.

at the exact moment that you feel the backtruck hitting the coping, where do you look? (nose, nose/coping, beetween your legs, bottom of the ramp, back foot)?

maybe put your board in an axle stall and drop in from that - speed should fit👍🏼 plus this helps to get comfortable dropping in from the stall

Tip: u can get u're trucks fully against the copin you will just have to kick out the back of your board a little so the wheel isn't touching the copin before u lean and turn in

Yeah but I’m having trouble dropping in once u go up on the axle stall ? Please help :)

maybe redundant question but what wheels do you usually ride?

@simondean9127

@Coleman Lewis you just nailed it! I was looking for a comment like yours because the way this guy does his stalls and his grinds are the same, but they shouldnt be. It depends on if you need to keep moving or if you need to stop, which at busier parks you often do. There is a 5050 stall like the one he does, where you are basically turning around to come straight back down, then theres a stall where you stop and wait before you drop back in. There are grinds which are short and more like better versions of the slash/carve ones to help you move along a ramp, then there are grinds where you want to get all the way to the end of the ramp and choose when you come in. This is all about whether you lock in against your heel side wheel or your toe side wheel. Heel side to stall quickly or grind across it, toe side to stall and be able to stop as long as you need or to grind all the way to the end (add speed to go further) without falling back in.
