Skating Ramps For Beginners
Getting into transition skating can be a ton of fun but also a little daunting at first. I've tried to put together some of the most basic things that you should learn on transition before getting into learning tricks or anything fancy. I'm not the best ramp skater in the world but it always feels awesome to just carve around a bowl or drop in and go super fast. Hopefully some of these tips will help you out or at the very least entertain you!
Main talking points:

Pumping
Dropping In

As always, thank you for watching and I will see you next time! :D

As an old person, skate in both your natural and your switch stance from the very beginning. Also get comfortable skating with just your front foot, whether regular or switch..... This will help you push, over sketchy ground, make it way easier to bail from your board. ..... But skate in both stances..... This will save you so much time later.

I can’t. I’m right handed and right footed I guess too. I can’t balance switch or fake at all I can Ollie and shuv it but I can’t fucking roll up and down a ramp without falling off
Just got my first skateboard a couple days ago so this is useful, wish me luck wit the progress

I don’t know if you’ll read this but THIS IS JUST WHAT I NEEDED!!! I went to the skate park for the first time today and I thought skating a ramp would be easy, i feel 3 times in a row and i started raining. It’s very different to flat which is what I’ve been doing for the whole time I’ve skated, THANK YOU!!! You’re actually the KZread that motivated me to skate!!!
I really wish my skatepark had a mini ramp
This is just the video I needed thanks

i dont sk8 transition but i still watch my man VLskate cause he a legend. The best out there.
Good tip I got: look where you're going. So, when you're coming back down, you're looking away from the ramp.

This was what changed my game.
Watching skating ramp tutorials did more justice than I ever imagined-More so than trick videos. Thanks to he and others I've began braving Ramps with success. I wanna particularly point out how much I recall from tutorials that I'm able to apply that truly help. Whoop!
Hey man love your vid's, got me really into skating a couple years ago and now I can skate vert. Keep up the good work!
You’re so endearing. I love your sense of humor, actually falling on video forward and backward for the example. I’m about to go on my first ramp - thank you for the mini prep! Looking forward to busting my ass again and again til I get it down 🙌🏼
Can I just say how much I appreciate you. I love watching your videos and find them really helpfull and when I'm not feeling motivated to skate I watch one of you vids and I have the need to

Thank you I’m a new skater and I really enjoyed this tutorial your tutorials are always helpful so thank you so much!
2 years ive been skating flat and just 2 days ago was the first time i rolled down a 3m ramp, wich was the smallest where i live and just yesterday i learned it consistently, then i find this video 2021-08-01
i just got most of this down, but i’m sure this helps all the beginner transition skaters out there :)
i broke my shoulder by trying to go on a ramp on my first day, wish i had that video back then
i started picking back up learning how to skate to impress this hot dude, thank you
Because of this dude, I now have a ramp in my backyard
Finally going back to skating and I'm trying to get to the real basics, since when I started, I went from learning to how to even stand on one to trying to do an ollie. I never really tried to do anything else because I was too excited about my first board. Really big help and I'm pumped to get back to the skate park.
This little backyard skatepark is awesome
Just in time!! Started hitting ramps recently
This video would’ve been nice to watch a couple weeks ago when I ate shit and sprained my wrist and elbow😭

That’s looks like the perfect size ramp to start with. Can you give dimensions if we want to build our own? Height, width, flat, transition radius?
Thank you!
As a beginner this will really help
He is the best❤🎉
bro i dropped in today, consistent too !!!
Nice man
Thanks so much perfect for me
@VLSkate I want to start skating so are there any boards, trucks, grips, wheels, or anything in general that you recommend or use?
Hey bro i watch your vids since i beginned skating I"ve now a broken foot But i watch your Videos because its fun and cool to see a good skater See ya
I need this
Okay, pumping is a weird thing to explain. You think of your crouching and uncrouching as a jump instead of as independent movements. At the bottom of the ramp, you want to "jump" to the top of the ramp. This is so you lose less speed going up the ramp, and thus gain more going back down. When you're at the top of the ramp (the peak of your height) you "jump" down the ramp to accelerate rapidly. As you "land", you push off the ramp in order to build even more speed. This is the force VLSkate mentions. It's also a weird thing because sometimes it's beneficial to pump earlier or later depending on your trick. A later pump might make you flyout the ramp higher, which is one of my favorite tricks. An earlier pump might have you land squarely on the coping, good for stalls. Just play with it a bit once you get the basic concept.

I don't mean to say the video is bad, it's just that explaining pumping to someone who is just learning to roll up ramps is difficult, especially because unlike a kickflip where you see what's happening wrong when the board flips a certain way, bad pumping still looks like skating. Good work as always

Just do it. I restarted at 44 ;-)
When doing an ollie or any kind of trick, is it bad to look down at your board when rolling towards an obstacle? If you get what I mean
The whole thing on a “don’t find a too big of a ramp” can I use a bowl that’s not that tall because in my city it’s vert ramps
To all beginners if you go to the skate park ask someone who has a bigger board then you if you can try their board. This is my second day of skating I tried a bigger board and it worked much better
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO POST SOMETHING LIKE THIS
He fell so many times for this video 😭🤚🏼
Tried it. Shoulder is gonna hurt for a while 😂
Good bro
Hey! Thats conners park! what a sm staple
How do I Practice? Cuz my skate kinda sucks I mean there's rams high median in small but the ground is basically like a rocky road
Hey man, I have an issue. I skate regular but when I try to trick, I do it goofy. Do you have any tips?
Cool video; also, can you please make a 5 easy rail tricks?
is dropping in necessary for learning to skate or street skate?
Does it have to be the stake board your using?
What skate shoes do you use? I need some new ones.
How do you follow up with your backfoot after an ollie i cant. ;(
Does anyone have any ideas on where to find ramps or surfaces shaped like that outside of skateparks? There's only a few skateparks in my area, most don't have ramps that size and they are extremely crowded. I normally skate in parking decks, which replicates one side of the ramp, but not the other. comment if you have any suggestions
what is the best is it kik sooter or skatebord
@3:49 this is me on even tiny ramps. I can skate slopes ok but I either can't translate it across to a ramp or my brain is getting in the way!
Thanks for the vid cya next month lol
What board should I get for bowl?
Big fan bro I am nepali 🤠
Can you do a nollie heelflip tutorial?

It’s funny because I’ve been skating for a year and I haven’t even bothered to drop in. I do know how to rock to fakie and just pumping.
Dropping in is now a little scarier than before because today I hit my face really hard trying to drop in
wish I read this for my first visit to the skatepark. My legs are still in pain
Early
Just ollied cause of u
are you DV (dark viper) do you play roblox islands and roblox bedwars???
