This is the best video on this topic on the internet. You did it again. You're really building a curriculum of what to learn and how to learn it if you want to go downhill on a skateboard.

Hehe thanks man. Glad you think it's good, spent a lot of time on it. Yeah just trying to make sure beginners are cared for start to finish
Impeccable science integration that helps me understand next level things. Still a noob and coming back for me. Thank you and eager to learn.
Such fantastic instruction, thank you again!
I prefer large contact patch and 78a for good traction cuz sliding too much make you commit a straight line and hit a goat👍
Great video!
Excellent video as always sir! Really looking forward to hearing you speak on frontside and backside pre drifts when you get to it!

Ahh it makes me want to get out and skate man
Your videos are great, man! So informative and to the point. Thank you! Please continue.
Really good riding workshops Bro… nice and thorough, showing the different risk levels and how to address them. We’ve got some awesome and gnarly downhill runs here in NZ but some of your home terrain looks like another level! Thanks for sharing the knowledge🙏🏽

Yes mate
is left hander at 08:24 minutes " THE" corner from your recent ramp-man experience? I was watching this at breakfast & it looked like that one where you encounter the lane-occupuing 🏍️. 🤙🏻😎

No, it's actually from two turns further down, but it is the same road! I wish I met the bike there, would have been easier to avoid; the ramp-man corner is so sketchy and high-speed. This one is a lot slower through haha
This is so detailed!! Thank you so much for a really efficient vid explaining all these turning terms really well. I'm gonna go practice, feeling safer already! :D

Can riding on wet roads help learn to stand up slide? I'm having a hard time with this one.

Yup. It should be easier. You can then transfer the smae skills to a dry road
