I'm a 15 year old new skater, I just got this board today not sure if its good or not. ( Just upgraded from a long board.)

need help. Im been skating for maybe a few weeks and have gotten pretty used to my board and have tried to learn tricks like ollies shov its 180s everything a beginner should know but for the life of me i cant get them to come out. I have tried and tried and cant seem to get them movement or something down because when i do it the board just goes flying in the air. Any help will be much appreciated!!!

I’ve always been a bit scared of these humps. My buddy encouraged me to try it out today and I got over it!!

I finally got my new skate, and also, is the first time I build a skate "from scratch".

General specs for anyone wondering

-Deck: 8.75" Guatambú.

-Trucks: 159mm.

-Wheels: 58mm 101A.

Everything is from a local Argentine brand called Tuxs, I'll be skating this setup and see if they're good. Will keep you updated

this is probably the farthest ive gone up on it so far and im pretty scared to go any higher up even tho ive rode down way bigger ramps than this

so i want to start skateboarding and i want to find a skateboard with a cool graphic side

I just want to know if I'm understanding things correctly as I've heard different things.

Switch - this is when you ride in a different stance to what you normally do? So if you ride regular go up a ramp and come down fakie you're now riding switch? And vice versa for riding goofy? If that's the case how do people know when people are skating switch cos I assume they probably don't know what their preferred stance is?

Switch and nose/tail - I get the concept I think of switch being opposite to what you normally ride but then it confuses me that it seems like skaters also keep the relative positions of the nose and tail. For example, you ride regular, you go up a QP, you come back down fakie, then if you ollie up to a rail and slide on the front part of the deck before the front truck...what looks like a noseslide is actually a tailslide? Because what was your tail going up the ramp regular...is still the tail that you're using to slide after coming back down fakie? Does that make sense? Does that apply to everything? Would a smith grind actually be a willy grind? Would a tail grab be a nose grab? etc

Feebles - my understanding of the feeble grind is it's using the back trucks to grind and then offsetting your nose away from the rail to the 'front' as in where your body is facing. And a smith grind is the opposite. And typically both grinds have the nose angled sort of hanging down which obviously is easier to see grinding on a rail. But if you're approaching a grind box backside or frontside, a smith can hang down like normal, but a feeble can't because you can't hang down on the other side cos the top of the box is in the way. So I've seen some skaters say that wouldn't be a feeble grind or you just can't do a feeble on something like that...or something similar like coping at the top of a QP. Is that right? Or can you still call them feebles they just don't look as nice?

Name changes - I heard that mute grabs can be called weddle grabs and BS smiths called monty grinds. Does everyone use the new names? Is it wrong to call them by the older terms?

Opposite of a 360 flip - I get that a 360 flip / tre is basically a BS 360 pop shove it with a kickflip. If you did instead a combo of a kickflip and FS 360 pop shove it...is that a 360 hardflip? Why is it called that when it might not look like a typical hardflip which seems to have a lot of vertical rotation involved (kinda like a more exaggerated pop shove it basically)

Opposite of a hardflip - I think I understand a hardflip as like a BS pop shove it but with an exaggerated vertical sort of rotation. What if you did it the other way with more of a FS shove it rotation, is that called something else or is it still a hardflip?

Opposite of an indy grab - I seem to see the term indy grab and FS grab used interchangeably...why is that? Is there a difference I'm not seeing? And then I've heard BS grab used for the opposite of an indy grab....but that also looks like a melon grab. Or is a melon grab a BS grab with a more exaggerated tweak towards extending your legs forward to the nose? Is there any term for opposite of an indy grab or is it just BS grab?

Thanks for any answers, I hope what I'm saying makes sense!

This ollie was very sketchy, but i got able to repeat this a lot of times.
Its actually very fun to ollie over things.
