tips to start skateboarding?

Posted by: admin  //  Category: Skateboarding Tips

i want to start skateboarding. i need some tips on what exactly i should do first to start. i already have a board. my best friend gave me his old board and its a good one. but my balence isn’t to good on it and i have alot of problems with pushing with my feet when i’m on the board. any tips on how to get better at balence and pushing?

Alright well first make sure it's something you like, not just something to do since everyone is doing it, else it won't be fun. Find out your stance on the board, are you better with your left foot pushing while you right foot is on the board if so your stance is "goofy", if your better with your right foot pushing while your left foot is on the board then your regular. Also try some skate shoes, the grip will help, the best skate shoes i've ever had is etnies or dc's they might be a little pricey but they're well worth it, or even try nike airs those are good too.
Also ask your friends for help with skating, if you want to start skating on the streets then do so but it's not the same as going to skate parks and being a vert skater.

ask your local pacsun or and skate store for tips, ask friends, and buy trans world skate magazines or thrasher, they help with instructions on tricks. The first trick everyone gets down on a skateboard is usually a ollie..

Rear foot on the very edge of the tail, front foot center of board for newbies after you get better you can place it almost anywhere. pop the tail into the ground, don't push it down with your weight thats not the point of it it's to hit the ground and pop up, you slide your front foot forword and level out and land

I just got new skateboarding trucks is this supposed to happen?

Posted by: admin  //  Category: Skateboarding Trucks

Alright i just bought new trucks, and i tried the out for the first time and after i did like my third ollie i noticed something weird. The skateboard became unbalance. However, b4 i did n e of my tricks the board was fine. I figured it was the trucks, it seems to get stuck on one side and i have to manually move it so it can balance. Is this supposed to happen? And what do people mean by "breaking in new trucks" im prettty new to skateboarding soo n e tips would help thanks.

First of all what truck do you have? Looks like a pretty bad problem there. If there is nothing wrong with the trucks, then you should do this: look at the rubber pieces on the truck. Are they ripped or damaged somehow? If not, then okay. Look at the screws on the trucks. Are any missing? There's one more thing that you can do. check to see if the wheels all spin the same. If they do then its your main trucks that are the problem.
If you checked all of the above, the it is the trucks. The axle might have bent or misplaced. That you cannot fix.

When people say "breaking in new trucks," they mean riding it a lot to loosen up the bushings, the rubber parts of the truck. This allows better control and menuvering of the board. Newer bushings feel stiffer. Good luck!

Is Creature a good brand for skateboard decks? my son wants a skateboard for his birthday.?

Posted by: admin  //  Category: Skateboarding Decks

My son wants a board for his birthday, and i can get a good deal on a Creature deck. Is this a decent brand?

Creature decks are the shiz; yeah, they are good decks. Creature is part of NHS. The same company that makes Independent, Santa Cruz, Krux, Ricta MOB, Nor Cal, Aiti-Crime and Bullet. They have been making boards for over 30 years. Both Santa Cruz and Creature decks are made from Canadian hard rock maple in the same facility in California

Can I use these skateboard wheels for my skateboard?

Posted by: admin  //  Category: Skateboarding Wheels

I'm going to buy a new deck(about 7.75 x 31.75) with trucks. I just wanted to know if I could use my mini-skateboard's wheels on the new skateboard I'm going to buy. I know the board and the trucks are different size but I'm not sure if the wheels can still be used or if they are too different size.
my mini-skateboards wheels are about 50 mm.

Well to better help it would be helpful if you put what size they are and what kinds of skating you want to be doing.

If you want to do street skating you should have 52-55 mm wheels

Anything above that would be good for pool skating or vert and when it gets up to like 60 mm thats for like longboards and cruiser boards.

So I would say its probably going to work, you may need to get risers though if their to big which go inbeween the board and truck so you dont get wheel bite (When your wheel hits the deck itself).

Just remembe rthe smaller they are the easier it is for rocks and stuff to make your wheels stop and send you flying forward
