On this page I'll include some of my tips and tricks I've learned while skating. Where appropriate, I'll include steps or pictures to help clarify my explanations. Please feel free to contribute your own tips - I'll post the best ones so everyone can see them. Tip 1: Landing A Trick Here is a tip that my friend gave me when I first learned how to skate. When you are in the middle of a trick imagine an invisible box around you the size of your board. If you stay in that box you won't be leaning to far forward of backward and thus you will have good balance to land the trick. |
