I wanna learn how to skate but i always fall when i try.

Question

Well i don't want to become pro. I just want to know how to go down a hill without falling and know some tricks. My brother is good at Skating. He could teach me tricks after i learn to acctaully stand on it. Can you give me some tips or ideas to keep me well padded. Anything helps. Thanks

Answer 1

Well if you don't mind wearing pads then I would do that (at least while your learning). Other then that just practice pushing on carpet and getting on and off of your board then when you feel comfortable with that you can do it outside on the cement while holding onto something. Just keep practicing and you will get it! Email me if you have anymore questions!

Answer 2

first try  on flat ground just to balance on it . i no this sounds lame but if ur having that much trouble with it have someone hold ur hands while u stand on it . also dont try big hills right away just go down a little incline.
