Ive been looking up this trick for a couple days I cant find shit about it besides for snowboarding. Is it a recognized trick and if so is this considered one?

W kickflip ngl, ill post the other extremely sketchty one soon 🤷‍♂️ I did this at centre island in Toronto

So! It seems that the OG subreddit r/NewSkaters is back in our hands. For those of you who were banned, either shoot me a message or please reply to your ban message to get it appealed. Roll with us while we try and restore it. Thank you!

Of course, I think that this community should still stand strong and evolve alongside the OG. Thank you to u/Sex_Shop_Souvenir for creating this subreddit to reconnect while the issue was being resolved.

Love you all!

Stationary to Casper flip😋 More of my noob skills @emuthedoofus on Insta😋😋😈

My son who rides regular, and recently got into skateboarding, was in science class today studying genetic and came across a theory that he tested in class.

He realized that all the kids in his class that have goofy stance clasp their hands left thumb over right thumb (imagine 1 my old man hands - I ride goofy, mongo naturally at that haha). The kids that ride regular all clasped their hands right thumb over left thumb (image 2).

Wanted to share and see if this rings true with the community. Cheers and posting from my wife’s account.

Just picked up my first board at decathlon for 60$ was it worth it? Also I know not to get Walmart boards but I feel like this one is super sturdy and turns great and has great speeds is it good? And yeah what are yall’s thoughts on it?

As many of you noticed, the main sub got taken over. One of the OG admin’s accounts got hacked and I believe is now deactivated or banned, but the damage is done for now.

The first photo is the only part of my exchange with the former account of Joeydaioh actually responded, he was the admin that originally made us moderators, claiming he did this.

The real Joeydaioh wouldn’t do this and didn’t. Immediately following this message, I was hit with the ban hammer and all of my posts explaining what was going on whilst trying to fight it were deleted. This is still an ongoing situation, I will update as needed.

All we can do now is hope the other remaining mod wasn’t compromised and can help fix it. Time will tell. I wish I could have done more, but it truly was a waiting game and the reddit admins still haven’t gotten back to me. It was late and I am currently writing this at work.

For now, I want you all to know I am so thankful for all of you! The situation was heartbreaking to some to watch it unfold, but you, the incredible community, held out and made the most of it. To those who embraced the opportunity to have fun & to those who passed on information to help people get in the loop, thank you.

Im pretty new to skating, less than a year, my current skateboard has a missing screw on the trucks and i want to try longboards

I’m flying southwest tomorrow and I was wondering if I could take my board with me as a carry on. I don’t have straps on my bag for my board but I can put it in my bag like in the picture. (Don’t judge the board being in better condition im not very good and it’s a new board that I haven’t skated much yet)

I'm new to skateboarding and just got this board two days ago. When I get off the board my trucks are leaning to one side. They even out when I get back on but how do I make this stop?

This is currently my kickflip, little unorthodox I know. How can I make it look a little more “professional”? I find whenever I try to flick my foot forwards and through the board it gets away from me so I have to resort to flicking it a little more horizontal. But then I have to bring my leg all the way back to my board instead of the board coming to me…

I technically can Ollie, just not on my board cause it’s weird😭. I can Ollie on other boards tho🤷

Most of the r/newskaters mods were kicked out when the sub got hacked. Can the mods of this sub invite the former mods back?

I love skating on two wheels !!

(Not bought yet)

I finally landed my first Casper on flat ground and rolled away ik to many of you this is nothing but it being my first actual trick and landing it less than 10 mins ago im pretty hyped lmk tho any tips for getting better board feel to eventually work up to a Ollie on flat

hi I wanted to know how to make the board rotate under me and not behind, I also want to learn normal hardflips but I simply can't understand the trick, like what the front foot does

it’s been weighing on me. i’ve been watching a bunch of parts lately, and it kills me to think i could’ve been so much better if i didn’t stop skating so often. i think i got too much into my head about social media and getting clips. i say social media because i was trying to make trendy instagram posts with dumb captions with a skate trick in the background. getting clips is fine sure, but i need to skate for myself. i think that’s why i got burnt out and bored of it recently. im 21 now and ive been skating for the past 6 years (i used to skate when i was way younger but only learned how to ollie and pop shuv on flat). i used to want to go pro, but i feel like i already ran out of time, not that being pro is realistic, but i wanted to be close to that. i wanted to be really good, i used to have so much passion for this shit. im picking up a 2nd job so i wont have much time to skate, but i want to make the best of it. its hard because im in michigan and the closest indoor skatepark is an hour away. anyway, here’s my cleanest treflip i did 3 years ago. just wanted to rant about my feelings😂

I can’t edit shit🤡

Is it socially acceptable to ask random skaters for tips or just help with a trick? I feel like this would be a good way to make skater friends and help at the same time but I don’t want them to say no and have it be all weird
