Skateboarding
Although skateboarding is not an easy sport, the sense of freedom of sliding, the sense of flight of jumping, and the sense of achievement of making a successful move for the first time are indescribable!
Try skateboarding! Let you enjoy the indescribable sense of achievement and share the joy of each other!
How should a newbie play?
Safety first, bring your protective gear. First test which one is your front foot, which is the one you use to control your balance, so that you can use this foot to control your balance more easily when you are skating.
How to do it, ask your friend to push you behind you, the one you take first is your front foot. Or the first foot you usually take when you go up and down the stairs is your front foot, or the foot you land on first when you run and jump forward.
After confirming the front foot, keep the body and the skateboard in the same direction, then cover the front foot with the four bridge pins, and the toes can be 1 cm beyond the bridge pins.
Too forward or backward is not suitable for beginners to control the balance. Then put your weight on your front foot, bend your knees slightly, and lean forward slightly about 20°, and your back foot begins to push the ground.
Skating a straight line with one foot is a basic skill that needs to be practiced well, and it will greatly help your future gliding stability.
The next step is to turn. Keep your feet perpendicular to the direction of the board, step on the bridge pins at both ends of the board, apply force to the heel or toe, and force one side of the board downwards to achieve the turn.
When practicing turning, you can find a larger open space, and practice turning in circles there, both positive and negative directions.
When newcomers practice skating, it is recommended to try to practice every day. This is to cultivate your control over skateboarding as soon as possible, otherwise you will find that you have to re-learn in a day or two.
In addition, during the practice of taxiing, it is best to find a park with fewer people to ride around the park. Only practicing in one area may cause visual fatigue to the environment, and the effect of short lines is not obvious, but do not go to the road to play, life only one time.
When you are free to gallop, you can choose to practice some simple movements, such as swinging the board. Swing is to lift the head of the board, and then use the belt leg to swing forward with the legs and board. This action hardly uses your back foot.
You only need to lift the front foot, and the board head will naturally be affected by the lever. The principle followed suit. After learning the swing, you can learn to turn around in the future.
Before you learn any moves, know how to protect yourself first! You absolutely need to know what to do when taxiing and turning so you don't slip? The answer is revealed!
The most common mistake made by beginners is that the center of gravity is on the back foot, which leads to slipping and falling! So when you're on the board, just keep your weight on your front foot and you're 87% less likely to slip!
In addition, when there is danger in front of you and you must dodge, please do not hesitate to jump off the skateboard directly. Your own safety is far more important than the safety of the skateboard.
