i literally got my board today and you posted this 7 minutes ago. you’re a godsend 😭😭
-
Man it's crazy to think I was watching these videos in the summer of 2016, not even able to stand on my new board but excited to learn and now I can ride like it's second nature and learned so many tricks from your videos. There's so much nostalgia in hearing the chill background music and seeing all of the skate spots you used to film in. If you're new and are really struggling to pick skating up, that's normal! Just keep at it and have fun, I'd give anything to be back in those days again
-
it makes me happy knowing new people are picking up a board every day
-
Me who own a skateboard for a month and still watching videos for people who stand on a skateboard for the first time.
-
Oh man, this made me so nostalgic. Thank you for your videos!

I don’t even skate much anymore, I haven’t found the time in years. But i remember watching all your trick guides years ago and being so excited to go to the park with my friends and try them out. You‘re one of the reasons I spent so much time out there, connecting with friends and having fun. I miss it, i don’t know anyone who skates anymore. But the fact that you still make these videos makes me so happy. I know another generation of skaters will be well looked after.

The fact this was his last video.

Dude where you at man hope everything's alright

just got my first board this week. did a little skating as a young teenager, but at age 33 im ready to give it a better shot. thanks for posting such a calm and judement free beginners video.
-
Best first day skating tutorial so far! Nobody talks about one footed balance for pushing / stopping or why one should use both legs to lift the end of the board. Monster Walk is also useful to get comfortable on the board.
-
IMO the best way to figure out your stance is thinking about how you slide on ice naturally. You kniw that when you are fooling around on ice in regular shoes. You run for it, and start sliding as it feels natural. Now that will also be your skateboarding stance. At least I got this advice, and it worked right away for me

-
