Skateboarding: I want to get better.?

Question

I just started skateboarding.. I have the riding part down.. And I can do somewhat of an ollie but I want to get better and do better at it.. Any ideas or advice for a beginner?

Answer 1

I would keep riding around and practicing ollieing. If you have a local skate park by you talk to some of the skaters and they can probably help you. Also you can check on youtube for videos and tips on skateboarding. Hope I helped.

Answer 2

Try and get in as much practise as possible and dont get frustrated a lot. And go for a cruise down to your local park.

Or hang out with skater friends and theyll teach u a lot of stuff.

Answer 3

Check locally at a skate park.  They offer summer lessons for a couple hours a day where we live.  It was the most reasonable "summer day camp" for my son.  As far as I know you need only your safety gear, a board and basic skateboarding knowledge.  Congrats for finding something you are interested in and incorporates exercise.  Good Luck!

Answer 4

skate with people better then you they dont just teach you tricks they encourage you to do the tricks you already can do you just haven't tried yet. more importantly though don't get discouraged I find people who haven't learnt any new tricks in a while usually learn 4 or 5 tricks at a time when they do you might think your not getting any better and may as well quit cause its not fun anymore but if you keep at it after a while you learn a bunch of new tricks unexpectedly.
