Thanks for giving us the opportunity to share this stuff! There is SO MUCH that goes into designing a skateboard and we love that more skaters want to learn more about it. Also YUTA’S ENGLISH! YESSS!
Your team rocks!!
Yes!
Braille should make custom shapes 👍
Our 3 Pros did make their own shapes with Paul Schmidt at PS Stix, but they aren't super crazy or different. You can see the video here: czcams.com/video/ey40eVvLOT8/video.html
I wanna buy a Braille bacon board.
@@brailleskateboarding If you guys get a band saw, people could draw their own shapes, either to buy or for You Make It We Skate It
Imagine people kick flipping an N64 controller
Yes! Experiment with different shapes and invent new ones. The sky is the limit!
Of the two styles for freestyle skating, Yuta's one seems to be the one for me to start with. Seems to be the one that matches me best
Awesome
Thanks for your fun and informative content! Keep it coming!
Im fascinated by other people's set-ups ! Im constantly tweaking my set up to get optimal performance . Ty Braille for another banga !
I’ll share mines !Powell peralta Mike v elephant shaped deck. 30” long. 4” nose 6” tail. 9.85” width. 169 Indy’s hallow trucks. 15” wheel base. 56mm conical spitfires 99duro 1/2” risers and the blue bones bearings (I ride super loose so the height helps with wheel bites) what you got ?!
I ride a 8.125 shop deck , Indy forged hollows 139 , Spitfire F4 54mm classics , Bones SuperReds bearings , Diamond grip and Indy hardware . Peace and blessings 👊
This video was very interesting and helpful. I only ever knew of the 80s sort of cruiser style and the modern boards we use today most commonly. Thank you.
Those dudes are gnarly freestyle skaters. Probably the best guys to explain different board shapes.
Would be interesting to see you guys do a video on longboard freestyle/dancing. In fact, on the many sub-genres of longboarding
Aaron and Mike make a great team for getting people interested in skating, and making it accessible.
Thanks so much
ive been subbed to these guys for the longest and they have never made one boring video! keep it up
Dang thank you!
Dude thank you guys so much you have changed my skating progression drastically I just did a kick flip yesterday because of you I really appreciate it and I’ve Watch almost every single video you’ve posted since I started skating 3 months ago❤️
Wow amazing!
Nice subject. But I would have liked to also see all the other shapes like cursers, longboards, and the lovely Anderson's shape that I waited 2 years to be abble to order in france thanks to covid ^^
Nice to have you back Aaron! The quality of the videos increased quicly! Thanks
Nice. Was watching just to watch but learned something thats been bugging me was the measurement for in between. All i heard was "14" (wheel base*) and just clicked what they/it means now. My skateboard comes today.
So excited with my old self
Great video! Very informative 🛹
I been surfing for 17 years. I love how surfing influenced skating ! I ride a Powell peralta Mike V elephant shaped board! The shape reminds me of a dope little surfboard. I ride my trucks super loose to make pumping easier . I feel like I’m on a wave everytime I’m riding at the park . 🙌 thanks Braille for all the stoke 🤙
Amazing! Thank you
Maybe you should try a surfskate they recreate surfing
Love to see people geek out over things they are passionate about! First Try!!✌🏻❤️
Been sub to y’all for a long as I can remember, you guys have yet to disappoint
Thanks man!
I love the whole skateboarding community and the sport as a whole. Style, hardwear the boards. Im not the best in tricks and have skated actually for very short amounts of times but i still skate when i can. I lost my board that i built couple years ago with my last apartment when i moved and it was perfect for me at that time. Im planning to do a new build when i have the money 👍
Thanks for inspiring me I started watching your channel around a couple months ago and I might get my first skateboard for my birthday!!!❤❤❤❤
It would be pretty neat to see a vid about different skateboards from different eras.
I remember a cousin of mine had a skateboard from the 70s and it was completely different from the skateboards of today. I saw footage from that era using that same skateboard and was blown away how similar they rode their boards like surfers
Ya totally
We need more love in the skate boarding community all around and all skater should post the progress or skate vlogs
Definitely!
Thanks this was really interesting!
Let’s goooo I needed this
Thank you for explaining all Skateboard shapes have a great day 🙃👍
👍🏻🙌🏼
Very informative video ty
I love skating but I don't have my own skateboard, my friend was having one skateboard he helped me learning skating. I can't afford it bro , but when i watch your videos then i am thinking to buy it in future
We got everything you need at brailleskateboarding.com
i cant even imagine a world where mike o is in a video and i dont thumb it up. KEEP DANCIN!
So happy arrons back the vids need his energy
💙
Excellent video!
If one of my previous video comments was of those you spoke about as inspiring this video idea, cool! And, I offer an update:
I went on the Powell-Peralta site on Saturday and ordered an Andy Anderson Heron Flight Deck 9.13... According to the tracker it should be arriving this Friday!!
I also picked up some Independent Slayer trucks, and currently looking at some Bones 59mm wheels.
Lol... I forgot all the stuff that goes into building a board. Deck, trucks, hardware, bearings/washers/spacers, wheels, grip...
Yes rad!
everyone should own a waltz board.. so we NEED that link!
Super cool vid
I❤️ all your vids
I got my forst board and didnt think about shape too much, because i wasn't aware about it. My brother got regular popsickle 8' and i got freestyle 8' and it has shorter wheel base. Can i still use it for street skating?
Yes you can!
Love this type of content honestly. I would like to see hear ELI5 / braille version of all the different types of boards for street skating, park, tranny, vert, and freestyle
Love it thank you
Still helping me out till this day💯💯💯💯
1:46 That's an early 90's shaped board. Christopher Hiett skates an 80's shaped board with a flat nose, just like the iconic Vision Gonz board 👍
Sorry to correct you Aaron 🙏❤️
Love it all good
I have a board similar to the shaped board but with longboard wheels as I'm trying to do a hybrid between doing tricks and being able to cruise without worrying about pebbles etc. Would you recommend getting smaller but soft wheels to make it easier to do tricks? Also, can you do a video trying out one of those boards?
Love yutas expressions lol happy to watch this video
I love Mike's enthusiasm. I used to skate in my teens many years ago 😂 but now as a 32 year old man I like the look of freestyle more since I've tried to street skate again in the past and it wasn't for me anymore.
Can you guys do a video on the hybrid boards?
Like what kind?
Yeeees! I was asking about this in the discord!
Yes! Thank you for the question and proof we do read the messages in Discord! Haha. Thanks for being a BA+ member and a core part of our community.
🙌🏼 Love all your feedback there!
As some one who is wanting to get into skateboarding this was a really interesting video for me! (I absolutely will do it I'm having spinal surgery in 2 days time) so after recovery I will be working on my health and for sure looking to pickup a board. I'm 28 so it is nerving but my nephew lives a 5 minute walk from a skate park and he likes to use his scooter and bmx there... im sure if i buy him a skateboard its something we could learn together! I'm thinking popsicle would be fine! Only thing that I am wandering is about whether I could skate as someone overweight or I would need to wait until after I have shifted the pounds.
im curious what @Mike Osterman thinks of andy andersons board shape. from what i remember of andy talking about it, a lot of the unique things that set his shape apart from a popsicle shape, were intended to make freestyle tricks easier...but his board is so much different from a typical freestyle board. does mike think freestyle tricks are easier on andys board vs a popsicle?
Ya interesting
i love aaron kyro
I’m a brand new skater never skated in my life but I saw a sk8board in my garage it’s my moms old board it looks very weird though it’s green and blue says nash on it and only has one tail I came here for info. Thank you 🙏🏽
30-year-old who was learning to skate with Braille and found Mike 🖐 now I only skate freestyle.
Mike is great
Sick
I'm 27, want to get back into skating. yuta is fun to watch and definitely want to try going that style. What board would I specifically buy for that?
When Aaron said I typically like my tail tapered and my nose really wide, I thought to myself have I been riding my skateboard backwards my entire life? I always assumed the wider end was the tail because that's where your dominant foot is most of the time popping tricks 🤷♂️
Ya the wider is the nose. Flip it around
@@brailleskateboarding here I am 33 years old just realizing this 😂 granted I haven't skated since I was like 15 and am just now getting back in to it 🤷♂️. Thanks for the tip!
These boards look cool and they are make to use for different uses Braille
Awesome!!!! Always tempted to get a freestyle board
They are pretty fun
keep it up!
3:19 dannnng that primo work is nuts
I found this channel a couple years ago and it made me want to skate so yeah lol
Freestyle Skate my Duster 💯🙌🏻
Trying to do frontside 180 and kickflips and board slides and Ollie off curbs and boxes
When are yall posting the tour videoss
Can you do one on the welcome skate boards I have the Nora vasconcellos board and I wanted to know what tricks are best for that kinda shape
Any tricks really
we gotta get this same video again but for standard boards like Andy Anderson explaining his flight deck, Christopher Hiett explaining his fish board, etc etc the list goes on
Can u guys make a vid of making a popsicle to fit freestyle skate?
cool i was thinking of using a freestyle board as a cruiser i found one all flat and just a tail
I saw a board at my skate shop its the only one my size but its mroe squared thought id give it a try
would be cool to see you show the difference in normal skateboards but different brands like BAKER shape, FLIP shape, ENJOI etc
Did yall travel back to 1991 for the green board with the bearing condoms?
Wish Aaron had followed up with the question at the end about what techniques and tricks to start with.
I can make more videos
Fyi to appropriately measure the wheelbase it’s hardware to hardware from the center of the hole, which will be slightly longer than baseplate to baseplate.
Perfect
Would love a wheels video next 🔥🔥
What about wheels? All different ones and explaining them?
@@brailleskateboarding Yes!! I recently got my first complete, I want to change the wheels but have no idea where to start 😅
My brother saw you in reno!
Today my younger brother gave me his old board cuz I was thinking about trying to learn some stuff, he shows up and he’s got the braille revive nacho vs pizza board😂😂Wich is now mine
Sick!
I am one of the 40 year olds thinking about freestyle. Think it might be my winter project.
I had a board I made that was tunes to what I wanted to do with it which was everything but vert cause I cant drop in yet lol but that board was amazing unfortunately I lost it 😢
Dang
It was also a Heavy Hitter board an ex pro family friend gave me and what made me put it together in the first place instead of hanging it was Braille Skateboarding. I hoping its hiding in the house somewhere if not whoever bought my last car got a free board with it lmao
Mabye a video on the freestyle set up. Trucks, wheels, skid plates. I have not seen a lot of freestyle stuff at skate shops.
Ok
Is there a link to the Waltz board that Yuta uses?
im 33 i have never had a skateboard before, after seeing soo many of theses videos i brought a cheap board for £50, i am surprised how hard it is to balance, might be able to do a kickflip in a year lol
Pretty cool how things keep changing. Way back we called the popsicle shaped boards "street style" and we called the 80s style boards "vert style".
im 31 and I street skated for like 15 years starting at 8 years old, took a hiatus and now i'm looking into picking up a board from waltz and learning freestyle to save my knees lol.
i have the same kinda story but i have now learned myself how to skate bowls, it is alot of fun! still getting the adrenaline, but without all the injuries hehe
Awesome!
Just gonna say, the 80’s one you had was actually an early 90’s board. The early 90’s ones had tiny wheels and the 80’s ones usually had VEEERY small noses, if not none at all, with big wide wheels.
I’m 18 and I’m extremely new to skating all I know how to do is ride one ive got a board like that old one and I’m not to worried about trucks yet is there any tips you can give me I may not find in the videos?
You guys need to show the various styles of longboard some love
Ya I agree
@@brailleskateboarding ace!
what is the different between double kick board and Popsicle board the two have tail right?
Ur the best guys
Thank you
Aw you're the best!
would a pro freestyle skater be able to do well at the BATB?
Hi.. What about width? I think narrower for street/ tech, wider for bowls/ vert..? Ofc. everyone can have it different
im 40 I have a normal skateboard you drive now Aaron. but these freestyle boards look motivating to start again with skateboarding. what's the best place to learn tricks without braking everything :P concrete in my country is very hard ;)
Mike has some really good freestyle tutorials and we also have a lot on our app
Brutal vídeo!!!!
What about Madness shapes? There ara so many diferents... New vídeo please
I'd like to see some Freestyle style skating on this chanel!
We got a few videos
make a tutorial on how to quintuple laser flip
Reno was fire asf bruh love y’all
It was! Thank you for coming out
🙏🏼💙
I don’t know what size popsicle board I should use because I don’t know if height and shoe size comes into it if so what would you recommend if I’m 5,5 and size 6 shoes that’s would be GREATLY appreciated
I would suggest a 7.75
@@brailleskateboarding thank you so much I will try it out
@@itz_switch-_-5904 I like 8 and above, gives you more room for landing
What type of board would u recommend for me cus I like to learn ollie tricks and very tricks
Just get a normal board, I recommend size 8 or up.
Quasi and Polar shapes great
I love the twin tail skateboards 8.3 real twin tail
all terrian was lit
It really was!
What's the best skateboard for me?I'm 59 yrs old. I don't want to do tricks. I just want to cruise down the street safely for exercise and to have fun cruising. ✌️🇺🇸
Get a Samarai Cruiser on brailleskateboarding.com the soft wheels are perfect for you
Oh great, thank you so much! 🛹 P.S. I just went to your website and the Samarai Cruiser is Sold Out. I gave my email address for an update when there back in stock again. ✌️🇺🇸
Love you bro
Same
💙
i have the first style deck I have big red kryptonics on it and most of my set ups.
Sick
For me to get back into skateboarding, I'd feel more comfortable using a cruiser board as I'm 47, and it takes longer for my ingery to heal
New idea for a series, two members of the Braille team get a begginer skater and each episode teach them something, start with the fundamentals of riding and then go through skateboarding made simple volume 1 and then whatever the prodigy wants to Learn at the end of the series have a showdown contest style, you could call it Braille prodigies, the idea isn't to see who is the better teacher or skater, the idea is to encourage new skaters to ask for help from others and how far they can progress from doing so,
Ps I will soon make two decks from Australian Red gum and send them thru one for the boys to skate and one for Ricky to do with as he pleases
Yes lets go! Aussie red gum. Skateit@brailleskateboarding.com
eric winkowski dope planet is my all time favorite shape
