Skateboard Skills

Looking to brush up on your skateboard skills hombre? Let us have a look at how to do real neat sharp turns on your skateboard. We will soon have you skating like a pro!

OK, this is good tuition on how to make those sharp turns, but remember you gotta practice and practice them cos there is no such thing as a free lunch, and all the people who look like a natural to you on their board had to go through the same learning process. They fell off and stumbled and looked useless at one point, and they would have felt like giving up a few times I am sure, but the thing is they didnt, and thats the difference between a good skater with top skateboard skills and a bad one.

Right, so when you push off you have your front foot over the front part of your bolts, and you will have your back foot towards the back wheel of the board. To build up some pace you need to push off a couple of times real hard and try to gather some momentum, and then you put your foot under the tail, twist your shoulders around in the direction you wish to turn, and the rest of your upper body will follow, causing you to make that sharp turn.
So to conclude, you apply pressure with your back foot as you throw your shoulder to make a sharp turn. Trust me you will probably have a few accidents with this as we all do, but you will get the hang of it pretty quickly.
