On which channel is the new Gifted video? Is it an interview?

Gonna try and do a little bit of skating the next few weeks just to feel it out

Brink used to be cool but turned into a fag after 2016 like so many others

>>256000
The dude is a deranged narcissist. A broken person. It's actually interesting getting to watch him have meltdowns and shit from the sidelines and watch him be completely unaware of what a broken person he is. He won't ever get better, would be better to just put a bullet in his head and call it a day.

>>256020
Sup jamie

>>256000
Brink was never cool, in fact he was so uncool that he has been coping since 2016 about how uncool he was and been since trying to ruin the lives of cool people.

So wait what’s easier to learn
Board slides or 50-50s
I feel like board slides are easier to step on but they harder to balance than 50s
Also the risk of getting hurt is more for boardslides right?

>>256074
Go try and see

>>256075
I have tried some board slides not much 50s
If I did I wouldn’t try a rail
I meant as in in a rail

50-50 are 100x easier. You just need to ollie and stand on your board it requires no balance or finesse

>>256072
Yeah that's a classic in /esg/ as well as the real world. Who knew that Jeremy Klein was a fucking retard? I also kinda dig Destroying America, it is just so essentially skateboarding, what with the five-oh's (a vert trick) on very high ledges on which you have to get with kickers (street skateboarding and snowboarding too).

>>256078
It does require some balance, otherwise you can spin out of them. And it's harder to lock on round rails.

seeing this shit posted on thrasher irritates me because its not really skating, these people are using their fucking hands to manipulate the board which is easier and not impressive. if your legs are gone, cope with videogames or art like a normal disabled person.

Tried to drop in on a 3ft qp this morning bros
Warmed up on a bank a few times until I got comfortable
Fell off backwards 3 times in a row and psyched myself out. Ended up doing the splits, pulling my groin and landing on my palm bruising it all to hell, a very productive session

>>257192
Why not learn to ride up and board stall and tail stall first?

>>257193
I may try that next time, I'd just be worried about how I'd handle the roll back down if I'm unable to drop in, my presumption is that the exit from a tail stall is harder to control than a drop in. Also I'd need to up my switch game

>>257195
You need to want to go fast

is chicago a fun place to skate?

fakie tail stall is easier because your body is already inside the ramp

>>257192
Sounds like you just aren't ready. How comfortable are you on your board otherwise? Can you push around and ride like it's second nature? Can you pump back and fore in a mini comfortably for as long as your legs will let you? If no, then do those things first and do them a lot, then go back and try again and it will be trivial. If you're slipping out on a bank when coming back down fakie, you just aren't ready. If you do luck out and make a drop in, you'll just get to the other side, panic and fall off or bail anyway (or slam before you evben get to the other side), it's just pointless. Get solid foundations first.

>>257211
I can come back out of a transition fakie fine, but I won't say I couldn't be more comfortable. There are no mini-ramp set ups around my way just isolated QPs, but I'll get down into the local bowl when nobody is around and do some more practice when I get the chance, it certainly couldn't hurt

how does skateboarding become cool again?
what took its place?
what do kids and teenagers think is the cool edgy alternative thing to do now?

>>257508
>become cool
It's always been cool.
When I was a kid I saw some guys doing flat ground tricks and thought "that's cool". I knew nothing of the "culture" or that it's edgy and alternative, it was just aesthetic.

>>257508
>What took its place?
I think everyone just sits at home and scrolls on their phone all day now.

>>257509
Yes but the first guy I saw do a ollie looked super rad he had spiked bleached hair. Nowadays a childs first ollie seen will likely be done by a tranny or something similar

Is this bait?

Are cheap Walmart boards really entirely worthless as a beginner board?
I know that the decks snap easily, but I haven't heard any serious complaints about the trucks, and cheap decks are always floating around on local used markets. Could be a decent starting point for someone who just wants to get to get the tip of their dick wet and see if it feels good before blowing all of their money.

>>257627
Some of them have plastic trucks, but the wheels and bearings are the worst part about them. They are so stiff its straight up dangerous.

>>257615
Depends how much money you have. I reckon most people 30 and up with steady jobs own about 2-3 set ups. I have 2 8.25's, one is my normal set up for general use and one has cruiser wheels for getting around. The cruiser one is almost pointless though and I've probably used it a handful of times in the last 5 years.

>>257627
You can get a perfectly reasonable complete setup for like £40 - £50 in the UK online. Cheaper if they're on sale. Just spend a little extra dough the difference is worth it

It makes sense to have a cruiser and an actual skateboard, but i mean in terms of skating on a real skateboard. Id imagine different wheel sizes/truck tightness depending on street or vert but idk i never got really into skateboarding where 2 or more skateboards made sense.

found some untouched planters with good ledges today

Beat a younger dude in SKATE today, first time I've played in ages, had to dig deep in my bag of tricks. Got him with a 360 flip, fakie heel, double kickflip, half cab heel, and a fakie tre was the dagger. We both had SKAT. GG homie.

>>257714
nice. my school friends wouldn't let me play horse with them anymore because I kept doing stuff like casper flips and nose hook impossibles

>>257715
He got me with an ollie north and a late pop shuv those are 2 tricks I just dont even think about. I wouldnt want to play you either haha

What's clockdar?

>>257789
It was more active until a few years ago. I used to be the main OP after ThreadKilla. I also introduced posting music in the OPs. It sounds like decades ago but it was only years ago.

>>257792
To "clock" means identifying a trans person without them telling you. The term "clockdar" is an unnecessary portmanteau of "clock" and "gaydar" which ignores how anyone can "clock" a trans person whereas gaydar is exclusively for people with gay tendencies. I'll fix the bad joke

I can't seem to transform my stationary ollies into rolling ollies guys, when I'm in motion I always seem to have too much weight forward or back and I can't find the sweet spot like I can when I'm stood still.
Is this just a case of I need to feel it out again from scratch while rolling? I keep hearing people say that a rolling ollie is like a stationary one but the world is moving around you but it certainly doesn't feel that way

>>257816
>I can't find the sweet spot like I can when I'm stood still.

But you already know it, just do it.

Bro this shit is a journey

>>257823
Just do your reps. How good are your stationary ollies anyway? Do you really have them down? I don't recall how my own progression from stationary to moving went, I put zero thought into it.

>>257816
Start off as slow as you possibly can. You need to readjust and compensate your body jump to follow with the board as its going forward. Thats how i did it. I cant ollie going really fast, but i can on a decent push.

I can get some kind of pop and board lift 90% of the time, not perfect form though. I wouldn't say I "have them down" more that I *feel* like I'm comfortable enough with them to really try rolling. Perhaps that's hubris
>>257826
My issue is that when I roll slowly I either end up coming to a complete stop before I csn get comforrable enough for my attempt or I end up rushing it and the board flies out in front or behind me because my centre of mass is off the back trucks

I know I just need to practice more and stop expecting miracles, I just get a bit frustrated when my progress seems to stagnate

>>257827
You need to absorb your landing and bend your knees while absorbing and surf away

>>257827
This doesn't really help but is nostalgic

bruh
Do 50 ollies on the carpet a home, practice your shove its manuals and riding outside.

>>257827

Easy solution, gain enough momentum to have time to set up.
But before that you need to go home and do your carpet ollies.

Guys why does it feel like half the time were teaching some kid to ollie

>>257834
>kid
lol lmao
You're right though

>>257834
I'm older than you are, statistically speaking

>>257834
kids need to stop trying to ollie in their garage all day and actually go outside and learn how to actually skateboard

Is it realistic for a 24 yr old man to return to skating? Is it one of those things you never forget to do? I haven't skated since I was 14, but I went hard from ages 11 to 14. I just wanna know if I should give up on my dream of impressing cute teen girls at the skatepark with a kickflip...

Skatepark pussy is too young for you

Been skating for more than 10 years and there are still shit I am discovering. For example, my backside tail stalls were hail mary-stick it wherever. But today I was more determined than ever .and realised you have to look throughout the whole motion

On some carpet try moving from pushing stance to both feet on your skateboard and ollie as fast as you can. Lrn2 quickly adjust your feet for an ollie

>>257751
My best trick is a rock to fakie :/

I couldn't wait to get home from school and practice my carpet skating.
I was born into the carped, molded by it. I didn't see pavement until I could already kickflip.

It popped on my socials a few months ago

>>257751
Pushing the skateboard without falling off.

>>257751
360 flip (I landed it once in a dream)

>>257881
What's the issue?

>>257874
I skated carpet for the first time since I was a kid this past winter. It legitimately helped me lock in my nollie/switch heelflips

I quit skating drugs and smoking at the same time all bad habits

>>257891
Consider quitting living too

>>257891
I quit smoking weed and I got better at skateboarding

there's a bunch of tricks that I've never had like tres, but I love pulling my bitch ass special moves like nollie 360 shuv or fakie varial heel

>>257850
if you do it for pussy you'll fail but I went back to skateboarding at 27 and I'm having more fun than ever and my fitness is peak

>>257888
It's great, you can practice at any time, get so many reps in.

>>257902
Varial heel seems way more advanced the 360flip.
360 is exactly what it looks like, you don't even need a tutorial.

>>257905
vheels are for 12 yr olds

>>257906
So why can't you 360flip, an easier trick?

Anybody ever pop a tire skating

Varial Heelflip is a certified minority/wigger trick. Especially switch or nollie. I don't even mean that in a negative way. That's just how it is.

How do the long timers not get tired of skating? What keeps it fresh?

>>257921
Doing new things.
You did a front blunt? Cool, now kickflip out.
Now bigflip out.
Now do it switch.
Now get weird with it and try to inward bigheel out.

>>257905
Varial heel is one of those sketchy tricks that intellectually underdeveloped children are fond of, you're not supposed to say anything about them, just ignore it. When a child performs an impossible, boneless, front 50 to boardslide, any varial flip, you have to pretend you didn't see it and carry on. Whether it's harder than a 360 flip or not is irrelevant. But I love popping one of those ugly sonsabitches to save a game of S.K.A.T.E.

>>257906
>>257919
I whole-heartedly agree. I think I shall be practicing my nollie varial heels today, in my baggy work pants, listening to American 90s rap.

>>257921
Skateboarding doesn't attract the kind of people that possess the cognitive real estate you'd need to conceive of boredom, we're just content with getting to play with a piece of wood

>>257921
Surprisingly there's no dopamine down regulation from landing varial heelflips even after years of use.

It's just a big scoop, front foot barely has to do anything.
You can do it king.

Have you ever been cool guyed by someone

good on you for not caving to the pressure

Hi gang
I'm still pretty new to skating, and the most advanced trick I can do is rolling down fakie and doing a full 180 so I'm back in my proper stance while going down a slope.
I'm bad with some terminology though. I can do that both backside and frontside, whatever it's called. And I'm really great with tic tacs and I get more confident on my attempts to do manuals everytime. Yesterday I held a manual for .5 seconds it was pretty cool.
Anyways what should I be practicing as I start to transition from just basic tic tacs and lifting the nose and going forward on the board. I'm very comfortable now skating with even just one foot on the board, so I think I've advanced enough after the past few months to start trying stuff. I can do that thing where you put both feet under the upside down board and you hop up flipping the board and landing on it, and i can do it without feeling like the board is going to zoom out from under me or that I'll break my spine or something.
What I'm trying to ask, is other than the inherent constant practice you get just from casually skating, where should i start looking to get practice? Likenisnit too early to start practicing Ollie's? I'm almost certain there are fundamentals I'm missing before I do that. Like I have trouble jumping straight up while on the board. Every time i try to jump up, my feet are like kicking the board forward or backwards. Are you guys staring straight at your feet or just hoping you land right? Thanks for listening to my blog.

>>257939
I almost died though, a lot of damage but gods been healing my body over time

>>257940
>Likenisnit too early to start practicing Ollie's?
Not at all, do them at home on the carpet.
You can watch a tutorial where someone explains it, but in the end you'll only get it after many repetitions, and not a sequence you try to follow.
Your brain already knows the sequence after seeing countless ollies.

Alright y'all I'm not making a new thread till like 420

Make sure you land bolts bros

>>257657
>go skating for the first time since monday
>pull groin within 5 minutes
>walk home
god damn it i felt so good pushing. how long is this gonna take to heal

>>257961
Old people must stretch before skateboarding

>>257961
no more than a few days probably

>>257940
It's not too early to learn ollies, but learning hippie jumps (just jumping off the board while rolling and landing back on it) is super useful and will help you with ollies later on.

Shove its are pretty easy for beginners, especially fakie. You can practice them on a carpet, or landing in a patch of grass at first if you just want to focus on landing on the board after it rotates.

Have you tried doing kickturns on banks/ramps? It's honestly one of the most useful things you can learn how to do on a skateboard if you have a skatepark you can go to. Actually, have you skated transitions at all? Going down slopes, pumping back and forth in a half pipe, etc.

Other shit that comes to mind:
>learning to roll off of a curb (small manual with speed)
>learning to roll up a curb (tiny manual to get the front trucks over the curb, then tiny nose manual to get the back trucks over)
>nose & tail stalls on curbs
>running and landing on your board with speed
>cavemen
>learning to slow down by dragging your back heel on the ground while holding a manual
>pushing and rolling switch
>nose pivots (you can already do tail pivots, right? If that's what you mean by rolling fakie & doing a 180)

Honestly try and spend some time on your board and "come up" with tricks, too. Obviously you'll find tricks that already exist, but part of the fun of skateboarding is learning to do something and thinking "oh wait, what if I do that the other way?" and that turning into something else.

All of these you know how to do after you've learned to ollie and accepted yourself as a skater.
>pushing and rolling switch
This could be good though.
