Maybe you can ollie, kickflip, or more. That’s great! But I wanted to take a minute and encourage you, no matter how good you are, to go back and take a look at the basics again./ppHere’s my reason: Everything you try and do in skateboarding is built on the foundation of what you’ve learned before. When you learn to a rel=nofollow target=_blank href=http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc#038;zu=http://video.about.com/skateboard/How-to-Tre-Flip.htmTre-Flip/a, you are building that on what you already know about how to a rel=nofollow target=_blank href=http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc#038;zu=http://video.about.com/skateboard/How-to-Kick-Flip.htmKickflip/a. And what you know about how to Kickflip is built on what you know about how to a rel=nofollow target=_blank href=http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc#038;zu=http://video.about.com/skateboard/How-to-Ollie.htmOllie/a. And your Ollie goes all the way back to what you know about a rel=nofollow target=_blank href=http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc#038;zu=http://video.about.com/skateboard/How-to-Skateboard–The-Basics.htmThe Basics/a./ppI talk to so many skaters who don’t take much time with the basics. I totaly understand! Learning how to balance, or how to kickturn - these aren’t as much fun as learning how to Ollie! But you HAVE to make sure the foundation of your skateboarding is good and strong, or the tricks you stack on top will be wobbly and unreliable./ppI have a big step by step article called a rel=nofollow target=_blank href=http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc#038;zu=http://skateboard.about.com/od/tricktips/ss/JustStartingOut.htmJust Starting Out Skateboarding/a, and we have a video called a rel=nofollow target=_blank href=http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc#038;zu=http://video.about.com/skateboard/How-to-Skateboard–The-Basics.htmHow to Skateboard: the Basics/a. Take a look at these - it won’t take long, and it’ll help. Spend a day going over the basic stuff. In fact, if you relax and get into it, you’ll probably have fun. And next time you run into a trick that you just can’t land, take a minute and go back a step, and practice. Sometimes the best way to go forwards is to go back!/pp style=background:#f5f3ef;border:1px solid #d5d0bf;padding:.5em;a rel=nofollow target=_blank href=http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hczu=http://skateboard.about.com/b/2009/11/08/back-to-basics-with-skateboarding.htmBack to Basics with Skateboarding/a originally appeared on a rel=nofollow target=_blank href=http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hczu=http://skateboard.about.com/About.com Skateboarding/a on Sunday, November 8th, 2009 at 00:24:42./ppa rel=nofollow target=_blank href=http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hczu=http://skateboard.about.com/b/2009/11/08/back-to-basics-with-skateboarding.htmPermalink/a | a rel=nofollow target=_blank href=http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hczu=http://skateboard.about.com/b/2009/11/08/back-to-basics-with-skateboarding.htm#gB3Comment/a | a rel=nofollow target=_blank href=http://skateboard.about.com/gi/pages/shareurl.htm?PG=http://skateboard.about.com/b/2009/11/08/back-to-basics-with-skateboarding.htmzItl=Back to Basics with SkateboardingEmail this/a/p
