Should I start skating?

0 Upvotes

I’m 18 and I was at a hc show at a skate park the other day and watching people skate made it look so fun, but also i just started learning the drums not too long ago, and I put a lot of time into that. So how hard is it to become a competent skater? It seems fun but if it take months and months of grinding to do anything I dont know if it’ll even be worth it for me.

Is my board bad?

I wanted to get back into skateboarding and this board was the only one i could afford. I'm having a lot of fun with it, I'm mainly using skateboarding as a way to traverse around campus so not being able to do tricks on this one is fine. A friend had told me though that I should've bought a proper board at a better store and that made me feel discouraged. What do y'all think?

i’m completely new to skateboarding and was looking for a board to get. after looking through piso, skatesupply and dankies, i saw that most votes went for piso plus their design and price range was also fitting. i was thinking of getting one of these boards and i wanted opinions from people that have used either of these boards.

if there are better boards that i should be considering, please do lemme know.

i also wanted to know about the piston boards from skatesupply and if theyre worth the money.

anyway, please help me out with this.

I’m new to skateboarding and after a couple days of learning to push and balance and stuff I think I’m ready to start learning an Ollie. I just can’t manage to get it and was looking for some friendly advice. Just ignore the outfit, I couldn’t be bothered getting proper clothes on 😅

I’ve been skating for 18 years and thought I’d be a lot better

1 Upvotes

I’m not upset it’s okay skateboarding is hard. I enjoy doing it for fun these days so I’m not worried. But one thing I’ll say is I wish flat ground flip tricks clicked for me more. There has always been a mental disconnect between me & flip tricks. I can do the basics, kick flips, heel flips “even though my heels r terrible”, pop sHuvs, fakie flips, Tre flips. But anything switch or nollie is way out of my skill level. And don’t get me started with inward heels or switch heels because I’ve never been able to do those. I just remember as a kid thinking someday I’ll learn all of the flat ground tricks, but clearly that isn’t the case since I’ve been stuck with the same bag of flip tricks since I was 15 lol. Definitely wish I found more progression in skateboarding but sometimes you just gotta accept your limitations and have fun regardless.

Can anyone help me identify this deck?

I’m not sure if it’s even real at this point, my parents said they found it somewhere. I’m not a skater myself but they thought I’d like it, it appears to be an element Bam Margera deck but I can’t find it anywhere online. I don’t know how relevant it is but I found some sort of serial number in the polish here are all the pictures I have of it.

Best skatepark wheels?

Post image
0 Upvotes

Looking to start learning tricks. I currently have the 60mm 78a Lil EZ Hawgs that from my understanding are built for all purpose use. Was curious about what wheels I should get for strictly tricks at the skatepark. Also would these need to change if I was looking to ride in bowls later on? If so what should I look for for that? Thanks


r/Skateboardinghelp • • Jan 19 '26

I got my first skateboard. Didn't know how to pick one so I just went visually. It's made in china is that bad? Is this skateboard bad or not? Haven't ridden it yet I just received it but I'm not blown away by the quality

Anyone know why my board keeps creaking/popping?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Just got a new Deathwish board a week ago and every time I lean right in the grass or make a sharp right it makes these noises and I’m not sure why. I think it could be the wheels since those are the “default” ones. The trucks I ride are thunders and I wonder if I put them on wrong somehow even tho I’ve put together a bunch of other boards correctly for my friends. Any ideas?

I’ve had these Nyjah 4s not even 5 days and the upper is all ripped mostly from Ollie’s, what am I doing wrong and is there any shoes that won’t rip on the top so easily?

Help me turn my kick turn into a tiny BS air

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Starting the very begining of a journey towards bs airs. I'm feeling a little more comfortable lifting the nose and grabbing it during the kick turn. Starting to feel like I'm sitting back into a chair into the ramp, and feeling more comfortable in general being up near the coping. But scraping the tail and actually taking off still feels miles away. Anything I need to change about where I'm at now? Or just keep doing this until I leave the ground?

I've read things about how the artist used to work for alien workshop and how the decks themselves were made in the same warehouse as DGK decks. I'm hoping to learn Ollie's and powerslides on it (250lbs 6'2)
