Sk8boarding

wOOt, i jsut got my skateboard and it is so l33t, and well, im gonna teach myself, how to ride and stuff, and spiderwoman, do u have any useful tips?

omg! Yay another sk8boarder~~~~~

Im sponsered mwahahha.

hope u learn fast, its fun

iv always wanted to try skateboarding..

and surfboarding, and snowboarding and the guitar and the drums..hehe

Yea, alright, but that doesnt answer my question, even though i referred to spiderwoman, the floor was open for suggestions, any tips on how to learn?!

first i suggest you get the feel of the skateboard. once you know how to atleast go in a straight line without falling, than you can try to manual(apply a little pressure on the back of the skateboard.) than you can try to ollie.

i dont know how to skateboard worth crap but my friend a major skater so here my advise dont be afraid to try sum thing new get hurt or try sumthing new and get hurt lol

loooool. Advice: do not go to a park and try to go down a ramp if you duno how to, lol..ahaha. Sorry..last..night, yeah not important.

ask maura shes like a pro at it, she is sponsored. so is greg. but hes not on here.

Hes not on EHRE eh? seriously, try spelllin better, dont become like l)arkness, well anyway, um, try to get this greg guy on here, we need more members, and being sponsored means gettin paid for sk8boardin? btw, i learned how to balance a bit


Oh, and i almost forgot, TURNING? how to do that, i tihnk u have to apply a bit of pressure on back of board, manual, and then turn the board, cuz i dont know any other way...

to turn you just gotta lean to one side. thats if you have the time and alot of space. otherwise you gotta do wat you already do.
also, you can loosen the bolts on the trucks. that'll make turning easier

Hmmm, loosening the trucks isnt a bad idea... Maura do you think that'll work? And i should ask a sponsored skater how to turn

lol David..you got POONED for spelling 'here' wrong. Told ya you sucked dogs for quarters at spelling/typing XD

lol wow gamer that sounded really mean, when you asked maura how to turn and stuff..u better hope she hasnt seen this yet lol..

*HERE im sorry.

Maura, go eat some cornflakes GOSH.

That did sound snotty but, w/e.

Im not trying to show off, I am sponsered..sadly.

Loosening up the trucks will allow you do make quicker turns, but u can also lean on the side unless your doing a kickturn. Also, since your a beginner, you might flip out while turning coz the tighter the truck just means more control..but if you'd rather bust your shit as a beginner, be my guest. Not saying you will but usually when your beginning to learn how to skateboard you should be able to first CONTROL yourself and the board before you go off loosening up ur kingpin. Coz if you freak a bit and turn real fast you can bust ur shit pretty fast and good, so just watch out. Be safe

eyh dats ont neci, lol , well like i said i dont kno crap bout skatebording(or spelling) but always try even if you kno your gona fale casue it better the try get hurt and have fun then not try and be boired i kno from personal experance lol
