commiting is landing!

From my personal experience, sometimes you can land 5 pop shuvits in a row with the greatest pop ever, and sometimes you can´t even land one. It´s all about the Full Send and being in the mindset.

Commitment is the keyword to skateboarding imo. I never knew how mentally demanding this sport really is until I did my first ollie. Now that I skate, I really admire those good skaters. I don’t understand why skaters get this bad reputation from the general population, it requires A LOT to be good at skateboarding. It’s so much harder than soccer, football, swimming or any other sport I’ve tried in the past. But I absolutely LOVE it, I just regret not starting earlier cuz I’m in my late 20s 😕

I did my first 50 50 grind, while a friend was filming me. Like "I have to do it and succeed now."

Starting from level 1 at age 30 I found I need to build muscles in order to jump. I cant hippie jump more than an inch and its preventing me from my ollies too. So what I did was buy a jump rope so I can get more vert jump over time.

Commitment issues. lol! I remember when I could barely ollie and trying to do stairs. One time I stuck a 5 stair and I was rolling too slow and my board wasn't tuned for someone over 150lbs, strained my back like a old man. I would probably go 95a truck bushings now. You're right about being confident in having a trick before you can throw it down something, and commit with confidence. I'm trying to get back on a board for fun and be a little bit better and more brainy than when I last was skating regularly. I loved how I had my kickflips. Remember the first solid kickflip Garrett Hill does in New Blood, that's what I studied to try to avoid that double dribble flip lol. (It touches the ground before your feet land). I don't wanna do big shit but I wanna condition myself to kickflip a 5 stair. They also say don't ride up to it too many times or you start to cool off.

I know i have good heelflips and kickflips but I couldn't land my front foot for some reason on all of my more difficult tricks than I realized I wasn't fully trying to land that front foot. Knowing that you might get hurt and being fine with it is the best thing you can do for yourself.

You are such a pure soul dude, keep skating!

Like I have to show myself "hey we're getting up on this regardless of whether we commit the pop fully. So let's just pop it properly.

I think its because i generally havent fallen over too much, so i might be too scared to fall or something… its just so weird..
