SheSkates: Drop in & Roll Out

in skateboarding •  7 years ago 


Practicing riding out of quarters/bowls. At this point I'm stepping out and catching my board mostly, but still better than bailing and chasing your board across the park.

Hi @sheskates926, great work. As some who teaches skateboarding may I give you some suggestions: First off, the drop in look great, keep up the good work on those. In the last clip it looked like you were about to pump round the bowl. What I would suggest is that you keep working your pumping, both round the bowl and up and down. This way, popping out of the lip on to the platform will be a natural easy thing to do. Right now, although you might be able to pop out every now and then, you having to really work at it. If you work your pumping more and get comfortable with controlling your speed through pumping (I mean learning to control going faster and being comfortable with that) then it will be a lot easier for you to continue your pump up and out of the lip (this is the technique you use to get out). Pumping is key to everything on transition. Skateboards don't have breaks or motors so we have to make them go faster or slower according to what we need. Overall though, great work, please keep documenting your progress.

That was not bad for a first time skater.
