OUR SKATE INSTRUCTORS

Nic R. from Reno, Nevada!

Hi, I’m Nic. I’m from Westport CT and I love skating. I am great with people and at teaching skateboarding. I never have any judgment and am always happy to help. Thank you for checking me out and hope to see all of you soon.

Jacob R. from Reno, Nevada!

Jake is very detail-oriented and patient when it comes to teaching. As a self-employed guitar instructor, he understands the importance of technique because it is the foundation of everything that will be learned in the future. This is especially important when it comes to skateboarding because of its physical requirements. Anyone could teach someone else how to kickflip for example, but what is more important is learning how to do it safely. Through years of skateboarding and videography (filming skateboarding), he has both seen and experienced the repercussions of failing to learn the correct way. Just like anything else in life, skateboarding takes a lot of practice, which is something that can’t be given to a student by their instructor. All a teacher can do is provide his/her student with the best and safest method of going through the necessary motions to learn. Jake’s philosophy, in teaching both skateboarding and music, is to guide his students as they progress because muscle memory is the key component in learning almost any skill.

Discover Skateboarding in a Two Week-Long Course





Skateboarding is a leisure activity, an art form, or a method of transportation. Skateboarding has been shaped and influenced by many skateboarders throughout the ages. A 2002 report by American Sports Data discovered there were 18.5 million skate boarders in the world. 85 percent of skaters polled who had used a skateboard in the last year were under the age of 18, and 74 percent were male. Those numbers have have doubled since the time of the study. In the coming years the skate parks have more than tripled making it more accessible as publicly and privately owned skate parks and indoor skate parks are coming into the picture.





The biggest change has been the generation that skated in their youth and have grown up with the “X” Games explosion into the world wide mainstream of competitive sports and sees it as a natural participation activity for their children as led by X-Games Athletes who are affiliated and instruct for our brand and web site.
