That quarter is PERFECT to learn on, problem is most places don't have that.

Do a tail stall please. Those are taxing me.

I reckon this tutorial is the best I've ever seen for learning rock to fakie. Thank you.

Love to hear this, thank you!

Great tutorial, thanks. How about FS and BS 50-50?

Thnx!! I have been doing them for a while as a beginner and I was wondering if you actively pull up you back foot a bit to make the rock happen or if you just focus on straightening the front leg? Cheers

5050 grind would be great! I can do them sometimes but I’m never really sure where my weight/trucks should actually be while grinding on a qp

I smash a super steeze rock fakie lol great tutorial btw thanks brother looking forward to watching more of your vids

Where I live I only have a pretty massive steep quarter pipe to learn on, so scary at first lol.

You mentioned that you press down on the tail to lift the front wheels over the coping (when going up). I'm lifting my front foot to get my front wheels over the coping, both on the way up and the way down. Is that bad practice / a bad habit?

fs tailslide and crooked grind please.

hey, does anyone know if you can rock to fakie with no coping but still a defined edge?

Axel stalls

2:05 Also, why should our front foot be angled? I've seen very experienced skaters ride bowls and curves with straight feet and angled feet. Besides how natural it looks, what difference does the angle of the front foot make?

For this trick, having your foot angled makes it easier to extend/straighten out your front leg. It also has to do with the way your body is facing. You're facing slightly forward, so it makes more sense to have your foot angled to match your body's angle.

@@toms_tutorials I’m learning transition now as an older skater and working up toward larger rock to fakies. Six foot has been the tallest but I had a few where I was too forward facing and almost really bit it on the way down. Is it not recommend to have your shoulders more square to your board?

Back side 360 plzzzz🥹

Tips on rails ? And board slides 😅

I had these so down for a while and then after not doing one for a while (through injury), when I came back, completely forgot!

Dam that's a detailed tutorial, going to try this. Thank you!

Hey Tom, I had a dream of skating and I was rolling in half pipes with no issue. Crazy thing is I've never rolled in before in my life! In the dream, it felt like I only needed the confidence to roll in.. When I try to approach it in real life, I get scared. Can you emphasize where your balance comes from in tutorials? Alot say keep your shoulders over the board, or always land on the trucks. Others say keep your head over the front trucks, what keeps you balanced?

That's awesome I hope you manifest that dream! In regard to balance, one of the best tips to hang onto is where you look when you're doing a trick, just like I explained in this. Wherever your eyes are looking, your body (and board) will always follow. A concept with balance in general is that if you're looking out (or ahead) versus straight down, your balance will be much better. In your case, I would recommend looking directly at the coping right at the spot where you'll be rolling in just before you approach it, and then when you go in you'll probably have to look down at your board briefly, but once you're wheels make contact with the quarter pipe start to look slightly ahead of your board. That should help big time with your balance.

I learned this by doing fakie rocks and getting used to full rocking them. Then id go onto the deck and set my board into a full rock and rock in from there. Then id roll slowly into the rock, and "rock" in. Then i got faster and faster until eventually you just dont rock and you roll in.

I think I should mention that you didn't show people how to learn to do a rock to fakie. Instead, you simply broke down into steps what we see when someone does a rock to fakie. Learning a rock to fakie is a completely different approach. No one ever just rides up and does the steps for a rock to fakie. It's impossible. You did mention getting used to riding fakie back down a quarter, but that was the only beginners tip. You need to give beginners something achievable, like lifting your front trucks and tapping in the transition and then working your way up to the coping.

Name a quarter pipe trick you wanna see a tutorial for! 👇

Blunt to fakie! I got 5 the other day by using my front hand to grab the nose and pull the board back in with me but I'd love to learn how to do it hands free.
