i don't know what far cry is
VLSkate what how?
Far cry an amazing game
😂
What?
I don't know what an Ollie 540 double flip is
“It’s better to get made fun of for wearing a helmet and shin pads...
Then to die.”
-VLSkate
Its true though
And that’s why I’m wearing pads and a helmet🌚
This is so true.
True though (I mean I dont have a helmet but I do have shin pads and don’t use em so (it’s all thx to corona)
I'd rather die then get made fun of, but I'd rather get made fun of then lose half of my brain and continue to live
Beginner: happily skateboarding
Rock/pebble: I’m about to end this mans whole career
don't forget pine cones :'D
I liked bc true but mostly because I’m 69th like
Lmao so true
Hannah Secker ikr
I have a driveway but the street is gravel and when cars drive in they get gravel all over the driveway 🤬🤬😡
im a female skateboarder and people constantly yell 'poser' at me, even if i am literally on my board.
You probably wear Thrasher and over do it. Not saying its wrong to wear those things, but while skating It can make you look a little sus i guess. If you aren't over doing it with cloths they're probably sexist lol
oh that’s completely valid, but most of the time i skate in jeans and plain black/anime hoodies so 🤷♀️
I'm genuinely nervous about learning how to skate because of exactly this. How do you get around it?
Unfortunately i see this happen a lot, mostly with girls and any begginers (as sexist and useless as that is). Theres no real way around that stupid skate hivemind you'll probably encounter, no matter what you wear at the skatepark.
I guess the only real way to get around it is ignore those idiots or just flip them off and do a casual kickflip once you learn those higher-level tricks. It really does suck that a lot of people can get bullied and unmotivated by that small amount of judgey teens. Just use it as motivation if you can, proove those idiots wrong and pray you get to see them wipe out atleast once as revenge.
Afterall we were all begginers once, even if half of them seem to forget that.
@@sadgemoggy honestly, i don’t really have any advice. if you enjoy skating then dealing with sexists is worth it. just try not to let them get to you i guess
literally falling is the only thing holding me back, i get full on heart attacks when i hit those little cracks that stops the skateboard completely 😭✋
SAME BWSTIE
Relatable
GOGY
I’m fine with falling it’s just I have social anxiety and I’m a girl so when ever someone looks at me I freak out and want to go hide in a bush.....
@@yeeehawtheimposter2378 SAMEEE
“It’s better to get made fun of for wearing a helmet and pads than to die” that quote went from 0-100 so fast
That had me dead🤣
Brandon Chowkai you should’ve worn a helmet and pads
Then you realize most people still don't wear pads😂
I saw a kid who spend one year in hospital just because he fell from skateboard in staight pavement and hit his head and got strong concussion. :V
Recenzje Płyt well he shouldn't have fell
Skate tip:
When you’re first learning, try to wear long pants and sleeves. This will limit injuries when you fall. Remember to always wear a helmet, even if people call you out. It’s better to be slightly tormented instead of suffer head injury! Have fun skating!
what if i fall on my butt..? thatd hurt a lot, how can i prevent it :/
@@borneostreasurebox8339 well try to fall on the rest of your body and not the butt because I fell on my ass a week ago and it still hurts so just try to fall on legs and things like that
BORNEO'S TREASURE BOX Never be afraid of falling, it will happen, but if you’re afraid you’ll never reach full potential. Try leaning forward a bit more, leaning back will result in you falling on your butt.
@@clount9824 thanks! i guess i have to be prepared for the pain
@@borneostreasurebox8339 Braille Skateboarding has a great video on learning how to fall without hurting yourself (as much!). Key things are to make sure your arms are bent and try to roll out of the fall. You can practice by running your board into the grass and practicing making sure your arms are bent and rolling one the grass. Getting the muscle memory down for this will save you some nasty injuries and broken bones!
The thing is my mom won't let me learn bc she thinks I'm gonna hurt myself which is obviously gonna happen but I don't want to do crazy tricks or anything. I just want to skate casually lol.
Same I also want to learn a few basic tricks but my mum keeps thinking I will break my arm again on the first day but I told her that’s the whole point you will learn from the accidents that happen I’m only between the age of 11-14 and I feel so young in the comments 😩😭
yeah i know it might be annoying and stuff but just remember that she’s trying to take care and she doesn’t want u to hurt yourself :)
@@amira7948 very true. It just makes me a bit sad because I'm not able to do everything I want to but youre right.
@@Levi-mi5mq same here.
haha .. that's funny. Coz I'm 37 and just got my skateboard. Now I think the opposite with my wife and kids may not allow me if I hurt myself ..:)
me after watching Sk8 the infinity: *let’s learn how to skate*
Me rn 😔✌
@@candiedblue3507 I'm probably going to break my neck because of an anime?
Yeah, so what-
@@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwyx LMFAO MOOD
Ofc me😔
Update: I got a skateboard last week - fell for the first time this weekend n it was great ✨👌
The things that’s the best feeling is skate boarding on smooth ground
and then a tiny rock appears from nowhere
Nadine Gayed
dude ikr like you’re riding on rough af ground then smooth ground appears and your feet are like ‘🥰🥰’
Yeah I like to skateboard around my school and it's the coolest feeling
especially on new sidewalks with no cracks or pebbles.
slimeytea faaaaax
Things new skateboarders should be ready for:
*pain*
I love pain. Bring it on
@@mimiabdo7159 you like pain ok try to kickflip
I hit my head really hard 3 weeks after starting skateboarding 🛹
@@kyushastyle3192 first you should learn how to walk. then you should learn how to fall. after this you can start skating or you will hit your head again. =) don't let your head to hit the road breh. you guys start skating but you don't know what is your body made from. never relax your head, hands, legs when you fall, NEVER. or you will die one day.
Just wait until decades later when all those repeated injuries add up. This past winter, I was crippled in bed for over two months, pissing in juice bottles, afraid to eat because I couldn't make it to the bathroom to shit, and my roommate got fed up with it and moved out after several frustrated arguments about having to do all my errands for me. Arthritis in my knees and ankles got that level of bad before 35 years old.
1:14 him giving a thumbs up and saying "it's better to wear a helmet and get made fun of... than to die" made me laugh so hard
His discription of getting into skate obsession was on a scarily specific level of accurate
Right? It was like exactly the same except I don't have anyone to skate with, but other than that, it was full on accurate
Professional skaters never make fun of beginners because they were beginners at some point of their lives and know how hard it can be to learn and perform new tricks.
Especially since they are happy when new people pick up the sport they love.
Worst thing you can do for the sport you love is making beginners stop early, because you make fun of them.
Tony hawk still uses pads and helmets in some of his vids
Exactly
same with artists, roller skaters and guitarists cuz they see beginners as baby siblings. singers and dancers however... man their rough
they're*
The first thing you should learn is :
How to actually skate. Like try going in a straight line. No tricks. Just learn.
Tessie vlogs yes i just got a skateboard like 5 minutes ago and i really wanna get good at it but i’m too scared
hello there trust me there’s nothing to be scared of
@@hellothere365 I got my very first board about 2 weeks ago, just find a cool lil spot around your house and practice getting comfortable on the board
M0yang MC i’m scared to do the tricks
@@hellothere365 it's all mind games man, if you fall you fall. Find a crack on the ground and put your back wheels no it so when you stand on the board it wont move, then try the trick until you have the basic movement down then when you get comfortable try the trick rolling
This started as a "Things to expect when starting out" video and ended with the meaning of life fully explained
I just wanna learn how to ride it not tricks I'm a simple person.😭
Same I just enjoy the wind lol
Same
You could get a long board those are fun and easier than a skateboard
Same
fr me too 😫
Best comeback ever:
Random scooter kid: “HELMETS ARE FOR WIMPS!!”
Me: “Well, head injuries are for idiots”
Great comeback 😌👏🏻
Ima use this ✌️😌 XD
Red1Icing go ahead
•Passion Studios• random scooter kid ? U do realise most scooter riders where helmets😂and do u even skate or are u just trying to leave a comment about “scooter kids”
Kyle Hughes yes I skate, they don’t where helmets where I live,
"things beginners should be ready for"
*im ready*
"$$$"
*im not ready*
It’s not that expensive compared to many other hobbies
@Mapenzi just have an extra 20 bucks just in case all the time do that and repairs and new shit wont cost that much
lol
Biggets problem ya
Yo la ShOoEs
There was this one time I finally went down a ramp a this one guy ( he was the only one there) cheered for me, and it made my day
Skating is easily the most fun thing that's in existence.
the only thing holding me back from skating more often is embarrasment. whenever i’m at a skatepark i get really overwhelmed by all of the pros and then i get embarrased since i cant skate that well. i also just feel like an obstacle in the park since i’m taking things quite slow compared to everyone else.
same here😔🤙🏼
That happens, try going there with friends (it makes all the difference) or if you're having trouble landing something maybe try asking for some help to somebody, people tend to be nice at skateparks.
Ooohhh dang bro were like twins XD
Don’t worry about it bro. Those pros were in the same place once. And one thing about the community is that they usually are understanding and will be happy to help. I usually ask people what I’m doing wrong
dont go to skateparks to practice, just practice on the street, your driveway, or a local park. Skateparks aren't for beginners.
My mind at 1 am: lol let’s learn how to skate
That is what happened to me! 😯
I went to a skate park, went down the biggest ramp without breaking my arm and now I’m ready to become a pro so idk
It hit me yesterday at 1 a.m. too
Honestly, nothing’s stopping u, u should try it
literally
My friend: Says skateboarding is boring
Me: *And I took that personally*
Injuries : I’m currently watching this at the hospital because I broke my arm on my skate 🛹. This is not something I’m joking about it is true and really hurts.
Main thing every new skater should know: GETTING HURT
verry helpful ill watch out for that ima start skating i just need my board to arrive in the post 😭🤣💜😎
pastel wolfie cool also if ur new to skateboarding u should wear gear like head gear and all that stuff to be safe
@@nonameruby316 ok thanks for the tips yeah me and my friend are starting out
pastel wolfie aight well your welcome for the tips and have fun skating it might take some time to get everything good so don’t give up because it’s not easy for me either lmfao😭
@@nonameruby316 i wont im stubborn and determin 💜😭🤣
“you’ll probably start learning in your driveway or street” -_- my driveway and street are both hills
Michaela Smith I can relate
Me had no driveway and streets are too un even
All the more fun then
I basically live on a hill
Michaela Smith felt that lmao
I love how he goes straight to the point
I like how we keep building a sort if masochism when skateboarding, like "yeah I fell and broke a leg and an arm. Yeah I'll get back on the board to potentially break more bones" Started noticing this on myself when I broke my leg, and when they took off all the crap from my leg 2 weeks later I was already back on my board
What every new skater needs to know: that small fricking rocks 😃
HONESTLY when I started I didn’t look for small rocks and hit one my whole board flipped
i broke my nose ON A PEBBLE
That's why I changed my wheels to thicker ones so they just roll over them 👍
Bro I most definitely needed this a few days ago I was pushing and I hit a Fcking pebble and flew 😭 I ate really bad shit
@@NaDiA-qx4zi i feel bad for u 😭😭😭
Just started skating, and as I live in an apartment there is no driveway, so I have to get out there.
What I have learned from that, is that most people don’t care.
I go out there, stay on my board for 30 seconds max having to push many times and then falling, chasing my skateboard as I accidentally push it backwards, falling because my wheel got stuck in a crack, being slower than the runners, and many people pass me and see me ,
But they don’t care.
So go out there and skate freely into the world my children
It’s the exact same way for me but surprisingly the first day I ever touched a skateboard (yesterday) I was already doing ramps and manuals with my friend (teacher) at the skate park and now I’m here at 2:00 watching skateboard videos because I’m in love with it now so yeah...
Honestly I’ll bet people are just happy to see kids getting outside.
that moment when i am epicly older than you
well,... will be different in germany where u even get judged for breathing.
@@meggiepuvogel3475 felt that
Sk8 the infinity fandom wya
it got me curious about skating but damn boards are expensive

I wear a helmet because I’m forced to (only being 12) I also am using my ‘stepdads’ skateboard which is electric even though I don’t use the electric.
lol
same, i couldn’t care less about what people think
you forgot ripping the goddamn skin off of my thumbs when picking up the board.

My fingers sting now
Lol you know true pain😂

That monologue for obsession was outstanding 😂💀

same
Same, its like I don’t care if I don’t look cool I’d rather look dumb then get a concussion! (Also, cool profile pic)
@@MaddieAngel1029 thx and I completely agree 😂
When you're too shy to go to a skate park and socialize so you practice in your driveway :( Yeah my self esteem is pretty low...
Lonely Pluto same... I'm too shy to even practice in the driveway.. Cause my neighbors might see me
Lorrena Leverett SAME. I end up practicing at midnight in the back yard where hopefully no one is awake
Lonely Pluto LOL SAME IM SO SCAR D TO GET MADE FUN OF FOR BEING A NOOBIE
ik its easier said than done but im like that too i just started but i just go to a school parking lot where its smooth and listen to music
To all u shy boarders out there here’s my advice just grab some earphones n skate at the park n 95% of the time everyone won’t mind u cuz they’re too busy skating. I’m talking from experience cuz I used to be shy to go skate at the skate park too.
The reason i started skateboarding was because of an anime called sk8 the infinity which inspired me to start and it’s so worth it
Omg same
That last one totally hit me good lol. Thats pretty much describing what it used to be like for me a while ago, and im sure many other people too. im at the getting kicked out phase and its awesome looking at the memories i have with my friend
my biggest fear is a teen boy calling me a poser or laughing at me 💀 I don't know anything about skating and how to look "cool" 😤 but I'm still trying
Edit: holy fuck 1.6k likes? That's crazy dude, mm but nothing changed i still have the same fear lmfao
As long as you practice hard and focus on improving It’s hard to be called a poser, besides when you go to the skatepark like he said in general we get along well, I’ve experienced this skaters are generally friendly.
@@simpleman8883 skaters are either douche bags or really nice people who will actually treat you like you're apart of their family. theres no inbetween
LunarLost. ? Well, I haven’t met douchebag skaters, either that or the douches mind their own business, yesterday we had two skaters who felt like older brothers to me, it was a good time.
I hate those type of guys
Its oki :3 i want to learn skating and i dont have a skate board yet sooooooo your not left behind ;w;
U should be a motivational speaker for young skateboarders no joke
Yes he is
Yeah, he is really goid at explaining. Im 10 and as a beginner he really helps
Solis I’m about to get my first skateboard
Yxm I’m getting mine tomorrow and I’ve been watching a lot of these videos lmao
Skateboarding will be the best and most painful thing ever boys
I took all day today trying to perfect the randja foot plant. It was hot, humid, and frustrating how I tried it over and over again. I hit my shin in the same spot so many times (with the lovely reward of a fat purple bruise) I took a break to just go skate before trying an ollie then going back. I went inside and got distracted by videos like this for more motivation. Let's just say I've finally gotten the trick and a beginner's ollie, working on a higher one tomorrow. So proud of myself and it really is the best feeling ever haha.
Ive been wanting to skate for 3 years and now im finally saving up to get a board. Your videos are very encouraging and make me wanna get a board asap and learn how to become a good skater :)
him:go out skateboarding with your friends. me: friends , what friends ?😐
I’ve never related to anything more in my life
hahahah im so lonely 😃
what are friends 😭
summer mackay you can eat them i think
@@ereenxv9349 no one think there talking about the show
Reminder: the tiniest rocks can literally breaks your bones. Wear a helmet and padsss!!
yeah i learned that the hard way
twice lol
literally I got bored while watching this and a few leaves stunted my board in place but inertia kept me moving so absolutely biffed it
i thought i could try an Ollie when i barely got my board without pads and i sprained my elbow :)
or deal wit it n stop being a bitch.
i ran into a car skating b4 u cant say shit lmao
Thank you so much!!! I'm getting a board soon and this has prepared me thx!
I can't say how much I'm loving this chanel, and how much help this channel is,

@@timmatteson3460no one will criticize you, most skaters don't care if you suck. Just as long as you're not getting in the way of anyone skating you'll be fine.
Lxndryn yo fuck em! You go out there and you do you. Find another noob and just have fun and if they laugh at you laugh back cos they look hella stupid. I don’t know I punched my bully in the face and was never bullied again and you have a skateboard so.... I would have been such a great mom. Golden.

I don't know if you want to know this but anyway
I skateboard and I think learning how to balance is a start. I am working on tricks, but I don't think u should work on them till you think u understand the balancing and stuff like that. You should also wear protective gear if you just started
Again, I don't know if you wanted to know this, but I hope this helps
Me seeing a skateboard for 70,000 bucks when I don't even skate my parents are going crazy
No one:

Mood
Heh same, but at 3:00 pm.
Try all nighter still up at 6:46 AM. It took ONE video in my recommendation.
Dude same but 9:15 pm
Been there not too long ago. Get yourself a skateboard (or start saving up if you can't get one right away) and just do it!
I wanted to learn how to skate since I was a kid and told myself that "it's to late now" for about 15 years.
I'm turning 30 this year and bought my first deck last summer.
One of the best decisions I've made!
Push yourself, but know your limits and calculate the risks... ;)
I just bought my first board today, thanks for the heads up!
This was a great video, as someone who has sk8ted since the mid 90s I can say it is an accurate evolution of skateboarding.
bold of u to assume i have friends to skate with or friends at all
That's how u make friends at the skatepark
@@edang352 damn u right
@@edang352 what if you live in an area so small that the skatepark is a Barron wasteland 27/7?
I’m a 14 year old girl that looks like I’m 9, all the kids at the skatepark are either boys my age that are annoying or rude 17 year old boys
You really dont need friends when their are skateparks. I landed a kickflip off of 10 stairs and so many people clapped and i know half of the people that clapped to this day. Which half was about 8 people. We've been going to that skate park for 4 years now
“getting hurt...” *me watching this with a sprained ankle*

I've only ever skated in THPS2, time to step on the board in 2021. Thanks for the heads up, Sir! Great video.
Got a board from a friend, and a piece of advice on shoes: latex spray. Not only patches up small holes but creates a durable surface that sticks well to the board.
Injuries
Me: breaks ankle 2 weeks in.
Obsession
Me: waiting for ankle to heal so I can skate again.
Update ankle is almost healed started cruising today
How’s it going
@@vickiehinrichs2788 well no tricks but I'm able to cruise, still can't really put a ton of pressure on the ankle.
I also had to take a break because my foot also messed up but no where as bad as you I jumped over a tree with all the power in my body and landed sideways and yeah I can Ollie but very small because my foot doesn’t want to turn that way and when I was waiting it was so hard but my leg wasn’t that bad and I didn’t have to wait as long as you
@@vickiehinrichs2788 yeah I dropped in and my foot fell behind and went sideways. I thought it was a bad sprain cause I got up and walked to my truck and drove to the ER and walked in but no break with spiral fractures and now I got a plate in my leg. It sucks but I'm happy cruising for now but I want to get back into it.
Me:I’m prepared for pain
Skateboard: you got the job
I love your tricks and your advice
This video was like an feel good movie bro 👍 I love your videos
I think wearing pads and helmet make me look cooler
D: I wanna be cool and wear pads too! 😤👌
ELel Animations oof
they don't
Then rock a helmet and pads bro 👊
swerve jesus ok...
PSA:
The other day I was being an idiot and didn’t wear any pads or a helmet while going down this huge ramp, and now I’m gonna have to use crutches for a few months. Be safe👍
What does a helmet have to do with crutches?
I know
I was just confused about why pads/helmet would stop you from wearing crutches
@@griffinshorts785 they wouldn't because it's structural damage to the body, the bones, although protective gear would mitigate some surface level abrasions
@@cosmicdissonance9888 safety gear absorbs the force of falls so you dont break bones of course you still can
@@griffinshorts785 lets say you land really hard on your knees, pads would absorb that, but if you arent wearing those your legs absorb it and can break, hence the crutches
Bro i keep watching this videos they are so good, ive what many of your videos (including this ond) like 10 times or more, idk how you do it but keep doing it you are really good and pretty good videos :D
The obsession is f@!King REAL!!!!!!!! Skating is all i do every day and then i get home at night and watch skate videos and get ready for the tricks im gonna try out the next day
Beginners, drink a lot of water. After a long skate sesh, you'ee feet will hurt a LOT less if you keep hydrated.
Thanks for the tip, it helped

People might hate skateboarding, but it's a good way to get out of the house and not rot from videogames. This is my 5th year of skating and I've worked hard to get to where I'm at now.
Yeah I'm trying to learn how to skate cuz I feel like I'm wasting my life

Thx for the vid. I am I newbie myself and this vid helped me understand something when you first start to skateboard. I just got mine today and I decided to start skateboarding again since I did it like 3 or 4 years ago.
I learned a lot from this video, Thanks a bunch! :D
me knowing I'm going to get injured:
also me: *skateboards anyways*
me before trying to skate the first time: goes out to the smoothest road I have with a broom and makes sure there’s not A SINGLE pebble or stone on that concrete!

right? I'm tired of people looking at me crazy when I fall😂
•m y a i s a e s t h e t i c • right? I have a really embarrassing story. Me and my best friend who just learned how to skate went to a skatepark the other week. When we arrived there were just all these cute skater guys and like 10 year olds on their scooters, so we got all intimidated. Then we sat and watched the guys skate for like an hour and a half which was really nice. But then I was like “IM GOING TO SKATE!” Really determined. The first thing I do as I get on the skateboard is to run right into a big ass pebble and fall forward. I turn and see the gang of 4 cute guys looking at me and then snapping their heads to the other side as I look at them. I pick my skateboard up, cover my face and run away. I was so embarrassed😓
I'm a 57 y/o martial arts instructor just starting out skateboarding. I'm already hooked. I had a " Where have you been all of my life!" moment lol
cool. I was wondering "where are all the skaters who are also into martial arts???" what kind do you do? jiujitsu?
