Due to a massive increase in single threads i thought i would just make a thread all you grom's can read.

CLICK ME!!!!

If you have any other questions about just the very basic's ask away in here!

Hope this helps a lot of you guys and gals,

Mr Mikeyfish

I edited it to Skateboard UK's version!

Ha Lol, good work man. Really liking this new site layout. Will we get to preview Skate do you think?

When it's finished hopefully.

dats really helpful thanks mr mikeyfish

I don't see any reason for these threads. It long ago has proved that trying to explain skateboarding to someone is counter-productive. Everyone learns differently (and there is never one approach to learning it) and what is more important is that individuals here fail to correctly and clearly put into words their thoughts (not due to poor language, but due to the intrinsic difficulty of explaining it). Secondly it is true that if a young person pays absolutely no attention to what he is doing and goes about it his own way he will adapt and learn faster. Oftentimes this kind of advice retardates their development. Please close down all such threads, this is the order of Count Majiev.

errrm to help people

Tell me if im wrong but are you suggesting that giving people advice is a bad thing?

Although he's trying to be funny what he's saying is true..

BUT kids keep asking and asking, expecting a magic reply so they can suddenly do switch tres.. So theads like this keep them off the rest of the board..

Think EAC's been on the gin?

to quote Colin McKay "there is trick to every trick"


Ive taught scores of skaters tricks, most better than me - but simple things like "move your foot a little" and things like that can make a huge difference.


help is always a good thing

Yeah that's true.. I've done that.. But it's not really something you can put in text on the internet.. That's what I'm saying..

Woo thanks for that. I never really understood frontside and backside but i do now

There is point in this thread because it has helped begginers (Like me) How to do stuff and what stuff to get now I go to a skate park in York!
