Don't worry everyone is pretty chill the real skaters know how hard it is so they try to help as best as they can also keep going with the skating you're getting better each time

Everyone sucked at some point, learning is fun and it is what makes you want to keep coming back. Being "bad" (really just new) is a good thing, not a bad thing. Just means you can grow faster every session rather than perfecting the small things over months!

That first rolling ollie attempt was hella impressive, it was essentially a success in most beginners eyes. She really is being too hard on herself, be proud of the improvement youre making and the time and effort being put into something you enjoy!

Sometimes being hard on yourself is good makes you push for more

Ricky, I loved this a lot. How your feedback inspires her (and also me) to just keep rolling until it starts popping, is great.

Bending your knees is the absolute BEST advice for Skateboarding and Rollerblading beginners. Everything improves once you become comfortable with your knees and posture, learning to relax into the flow and using the board or skates as an extension of your natural movement and not just a separate platform you're stood on top of. God, I love skating.

I've wanted to skate since I was like 10. I picked up wakeskating a few years ago and this legit makes me want to give skating a shot again. Especially the little things like going off curbs. Really inspirational for me

Do it! Skateboarding is YOURS! If you stand on a skateboard you're skating. Just go out and do it! You're not giving it a shot, you're already doing it.

thank you for posting these videos and the progression ones. they are so motivating and nice to see the input and advice you give. im about to go to the skatepark for the first time on a skateboard because of you and your videos!

My son has been skating with me for a year a some months . 2 times a week if lucky . He listens to my advice . If amazing watching him apply the info . Kid is 8 rolling in on 7ft quarter pipes boosting out the 5 lol his technique is sharp when it comes to pumping transition! The way he holds his arms is so damn clean!!! I’m flailing like a fish while my son is looking like a natural! I help him work through his fears and bro! The work he puts in is amazing

I started skating this year and tore my meniscus somehow at home while not skating... can't wait to start again. Watching these videos is nice while I can't skate.

So cool that you're inspiring beginners to keep going! That's really the only thing that helps. Just keep at it and you'll build the skill. Love it.

I have a theory about those weird beginner Ollie attempts that don’t get off the ground- Maybe the person trying the Ollie thinks that the motion of the board actually propels them into the air, when in reality, an Ollie is just a technique to have the board travel with you when you jump. Idk. I’m high

@Poodleinacan

I mean, it's basically that. Someone who doesn't know how it works will think that you jump with the board, instead of the board jumping with you.

this is super wholesome, good on both ya

Love this! Great interaction she is really progressing fast... i have been skating for years and just now am starting to practice ollies

Now THAT is a healthy community! The pro helping the newbie, no toxic words said, just pure and genuine desire to come up with couple pieces of advice. Wish we had more of that in regular life aswell

Your takes are always so casual, genuine, informative, and inspiring. I just made My first 2 small clips on my phone of me accidently not landing, but sorta, landing a varial flip; while practicing towards my first kick flip. In the same session I attempted a heel flip but landed on the tail. Also got some rocket switch ollies and 2 nollies. When I skated as a kid I never thought I couldn't do any of these tricks. I was good at stairs gaps and rails.

i love the info you are giving and once it gets cooler outside i will definitely start practicing again, its getting over 100 degrees outside for the past week

Love the positivity! I love your input on stuff we've all done or are currently doing, especially if we skate solo.

Ricky, you’re such a genuine person. Love your vids bud!

Love this, bud! Like seeing beginner progress.

Dude, this is awesome content! Kuddos brother, and kuddos girl! This is sick, I’ve skated since I could walk and this typpa thing is why the skate community has always been A1 above all else. Love it man.

wow all great tips and great advice. your a great coach to only work on the areas needed and to not over inform

I love this collaboration. The points made are well said. I choose long boarding I know… 😅 but I never did it in while younger but wow skateboarding is so much fun. Hard. But definitely fun. I love his advice of just making boarding part of your everyday life. I love how the methods to learning are not limited. It’s just learn.

As a father who learned to skate 35 years ago it cool to see beginning steps my daughter just got her first board and this is helpful. I don't remember when I learned to ollie

We need more of this good content on YT

Love this series man ❤❤

This girl is just ALL good energy :D and I love the idea of this working back and forth :D

I was waiting for this! 🤣

Bro i love your videos keep it up 💙

I learned to skate over quarantine and used to skate daily, bringing my skills to campus, til I was hit with illness and essentially house bound for two years, then this year got covid for the first time, and was very ill to the point of immobility for 6 months. I’m just starting to see some recovery, and while I don’t think I’ll be tearing up the city anytime soon like I used to on my board, I’m feeling stronger and ready enough to cruise around a garage park like old times. Riding is so therapeutic, and learning to is a great and rewarding challenge, I encourage anyone to try, ESPECIALLY while you have the health and mobility, you will not regret it. You’ll only regret not trying when it’s too late. I haven’t really skated in over 2.5 years now, but occasionally I’ll glide back and forth in my very small apartment hallway, and I’m grateful to know I haven’t totally lost my touch in that time. ❤❤🎉

Watching you always makes me wanna skate. Especially when i seen you with the braille squad all together skating and having fun. But when i skate it just make me wanna go back inside. I got no friends that live near me that wanna skate. Its been a month since i skated but ima try agian one day

Yooo i remember watching her, she has gotten so much better with skating! and that's awesome to see.

I love teaching new people at my local park how to skate, really makes me happy to spread knowledge I've learned over about 4 years of skating

For sure, would love to see a collab with the two of you! love the good sk8 vibes!

This is great bro

Just picked up my first complete and set it up today. I went to my local park and everyone was so cool! They were all down with my new Anderson skateboard. They encouraged me to be more confident and I actually did an ollie after 23 years of skating. Thanks to everyone who is out there encouraging new skaters at the park!

This is very wholesome.

Well done Sensei Ricky, congratulations Heglar.

I’m quite enjoying these skate related content

Honestly, great job lady. going from manual to learning rolling manuals would had been a great next step, that's the most fluid way to get off of curbs and also if there's a bump at the edge of it you can do a little bumpy bounce, they're so much fun. I miss skating. :(

This is so nice!

Love this video for so many reasons

Omg i actually love her! Her rollerskating vids are great

When you realize Ollie’s are one of the most difficult tricks to master and is the BASIS of every other trick.. that’s when you get humble about skating! Been skating for 15 years but ankle injuries kept me off the board for about 10 now. But I’m back sloppier than ever! But with your vids, I’ll do fine again 😅

Dang y’all are on the verge of restoring my faith in the Internet !!

Great work Hegla!

I met some skaters yesterday, they were genuinely the chillest dudes ive ever seen in my entire life, thanks to them, i decided to start skating. Now im saving up to buy one

Man, I skated a lot in my teen years for about 6 years or so every day, loved it had an absolute blast with the buddies. I'm 30 and I haven't been on a board in like 13 years, i still have them but im scared if i get on it ill just bust my ass immediately. Which is probably true it's been absolute ages ive lost whatever balance and control I had, but i still fundamentally remember how to do everything in my head, but my body probably doesn't. But watching skateboard videos makes me want to do it again.

its a great reminder that this is really difficult and you have to be not good at it for ages before you can be good at it and everyone goes through that great content

Yeah it is a great remind and I get strange looks. Even when falling seems like why not fail. That’s why I like this community.

As a dad... where's your helmet lady...?!?

im just starting to skate too- My older brother has been skating since he wasl ike 7 or 8 and he has been more then enough help by giving me tips and answering my questions and stuff, im kinda glad i have the help of videos and stuff and im actually looking for more tips by watching videos exactly like this one. if anyone else has any tips for me i'd be more then happy to hear them. Currently, im focusing on actually pushing on the board.

@3:14 - story time i remember i was skateboarding at a normal park and i found a steep u shaped road so i rolled in and did some carves on it. (around 30 degree) my father saw that and told me he use to skate. i was so surprised i gave him the board and he rolled in for the first time in like 30 years like he was born to ride it was the coolest thing i ever saw him do and he was like 50 years old at the time.

At least she got the vibe down, Late at night, skating in random spots around town... going home bruised and in pieces, to do it all over again the very next day ^^

Really cool video!!!

awesome to get more ppl come to skating what i did to get use to skating was i would spend 3 hours a day going up and down my drive way just practicing pushing off and just over all comfort on the board before i started learning tricks

Haha go girl, nice Ricky 🔥👏

idk why but this was kinda wholesome

i went on holiday like 5days ago now and decided it was a really good idea to try and learn how to skate, not even 30 minutes after getting my board i fell off and broke my wrist lmao

I hope you can teach her going forward! Zoom coaching would be amazing

Damn, this makes me want to go skate.

His advice to put skateboarding into your daily routine is very good and wonderful advice. Except for me, the town where I live is very hilly and I don't have the skill level to hill bomb just yet. Last time I tried, I injured myself for a good three months. If it wasn't for that, I totally would love to, but I have to settle for flat ground at the moment.

Dude yeah, I got cocky and cracked my tibia, 3 months! 😭 I suppose what they say is true, lessons are what not to do

Just randomly have watched this series, awesome 🤓

s=sick man!more videos plz!!!

I started skating 3 days ago, starting to feel decently safe on the board, I heard i should tighten my trucks... i got a 7.6" board instead of the recommended 8,2" so i should def tighten them a little, also gonna plan to get protective gear! Today I went face first onto metal plating but caught myself for only my hands and hip to get hurt, so yea...

One this she's still missing in this video is the front foot (often) pointing forwards towards the nose when she climbs on the board. Nope, the moment one kicks speed and put s back foot on the board, turn front foot sideways just as the back foot is. I always try to teach this basic sequence of movements to beginners. That helps immensely with basic balance and control of the board and helps one not to stand in their own way :) It's a small thing, but important, especially for steering and carving :) When you have more experience, THEN you can start to mess with the footing and where everything is and when and why, but at the start, it's really important :)

i’m still trying to do the ollie and honestly i like listening to other skaters because they’re more experienced than me so i can learn better from them

I’m collecting videos so that I can just watch them over and over and hopefully learn something while waiting for my board to deliver 😂

oh man this takes me back to when I first learned haha. I'd been wanting a skateboard for a while so I finally went out and bought one. me and my friend decide to go at his house, a couple hours goes by and I realize I don't have anyway of getting home so I say fuck it and decide to skate it (it was pretty damn far). at first I could barely even push myself but I forced through it and by the time I got home I had basically figured out the fundamentals. all this to say that at first it probably won't feel like you're even making much progress but once it clicks, it gets a lot easier. a bit like learning to ride a bike

Ricky out here doing Aarons vision without even going out and skating lol

a decade ago or so now i learnt my hardflips with my hands and then learnt to land em on grass. got em solic and now i cant stop snapping boards on concrete :(

tried my first rolling ollie today... rolled my ankle haha

I started skating around last week. These last 3 days, I've been skating for about an hour each day after work. It gives a nice upper leg workout 😂 It's a nice way to get a nice exercise. As the days pass, I'll be able to last longer. Currently, I'm just riding a bit in nearby streets (and just earlier got a better hang with riding and turning to the point where it feels nice... though no sharp turns yet) and practicing my ollies a lot (a lot of progress, but more practice is needed). I want to become comfortable with popping my board and riding it, before going to a skate park.... or maybe more riding it and get some tips at a local skate park lol At 31, time is starting to tick and it's a good way to stay in shape! I've kept my shape and my health, so anything to keep that going is cool

Would be a lot of fun to see you skating together!

depending on the location in the uk the roads are so weird 1 minute youre on the most perfect flat road clear of anything then its bricks then cobbles back to a normal road

When I was learning to do an Ollie I was jumping without the board trying to get my knees as high up then tried on the board

She has to become your new apprentice 🎉

Damn, I just might need to start a vlog to get me back into skateboarding

One important thing about the ollie is that you need to remember to jump. Lot of people when starting out just pop and slide their foot without actually making an effort to jump resulting in the "rocket ollies"

i skate my university daily and just the mile i push without having fun is so much muscle memory

im getting a skateboard this summer ‼️

I know i'm late to the party, but Ricky, for the love of God, TELL THIS GIRL TO GET TO A SKATE PARK! Even if you cant work with her get her to a park where she will get all the help she could need!

Savage!

as an old bastard that get back on a skateboard after the itch sets in and rides till I have a major injury, i feel good knowing that i never feel weird on a skateboard, that must be a pro thing....

Rocket ollies 😅 never heard that ever in the 8 years I was skating

wholesome

I decided to learn skating and I’m waiting for the board and protections to be delivered. I have been weightlifting for a year and wanted to pick up new sports to develop balance and swiftness. How does weightlifting relate to this? In a year I never was able to drop the barbell after deadlifts, no matter the weight. Dropping the board will be so hard 😂

Congratulations

what's a good beginner board ?? I wanna learn to skate so bad but idk what to use

Ok 0:53 Ricky reacts to Hegla reacting to Ricky reacting to Hegla DAMN

I Love Ricky glazer

Big fan Ricky, I started skating 8 months ago would you react to my progress if made a lil vid about it I just started learning vert and kickflip a which arnt that consistent but I got really good at carving and pumping bowls

Omg I practice my manuals just like that. Every. Day.

I feel like I need to see other beginners learning to motivate me to practice more.

I'm not crying you're crying I'm chopping onions for a lasagne.

Glaser gives the best advice, and it's so simple: Skate to go places. And keep skating regularly. Skating a mile a day, every day, for two weeks made my learning tricks much easier. If you're gonna race cars, you gotta learn to drive the streets with a clutch, first.

Go heeeglaaaaa
