3) Riley Y. From Nashville, TN ()

Hello, my name is Riley Yarnall, I am 20 years old and am from Nashville TN. I have been skateboarding my whole life but only started taking it seriously about 6 years ago. When I was younger my dad would take me to skateparks around the area and teach me the basics like how to roll around and not hurt myself too bad. I can remember the first real skateboard he bought me and the way I felt when riding it, it’s the same feeling I have now when I ride my skateboard. It’s a feeling of freedom and a sense of weightlessness. Skateboarding has truly changed my life for the better and it still does everytime I step on it.

My skill set is pretty high I could push myself and have sponcers, but right now at the moment I am skateboarding just because it is fun and I enjoy it.

When I’m at the skatepark I enjoy kids coming up to me and asking for trick tips and advise on what or what not to do. It reminds me of when I was a kid and wanted to learn every single trick possible. I have a good way of teaching people to learn too.

Also I’m great with kids, I have experience working with K-4th graders at an after school extended Care that I worked at threw out highschool.

When I go skating I usually go to Sixth Avenue Skatepark/Rocketown. They are all very friendly down there and are helpful.

When the weather is nice I like to go to Two Rivers Skatepark, it is an outdoor park and there are alot of obstacles to learn on.

I hope skateboarding can help change your life the same way it changed mine. Peace. Love. Laughter.

8) Oshun F. from Chico, CA ()

I love working with kids and only really care about skating. I’ve been doing it my whole life and wouldn’t want to do anything other than it. I’ve helped my friends and plenty of kids learn radical maneuvers.

I believe skateboarding it’s one of the best outlets for anybody whether you aim to go pro, or just want to try something new and fun.

I’ll teach them how to achieve their dreams in the skateboarding world.

I showed kids the basics of skating. From beginner to pro. I know how to skate it all. Ramps, flatground, or even rails.I could teach anything from basic riding and turning, to kickflip variations, and pumping through bowls, as well as gaps and drops.

9) Ian T. From Centennial ()

Hi, my name is Ian. I’m 25 years old. I’m a college graduate from the Metropolitan State University of Denver. I’m looking to pursue my passion in skateboarding by teaching others how to skate. I would be a great instructor because I find gratification in teaching others what I love to do. Not only am I certified by GoSkate to become an instructor, but I also have over 12 years of experience in skateboarding.

I’ve been a local skater at Trails and Parker skatepark for the last 10 years. I understand all the obstacles and etiquette needed to keep your student safe. I’ve successfully taught all age groups from beginners to advanced. I’m a hype man! I like to get others pumped and excited to skate. I enjoy building other people’s confidence in skateboarding. I’m reliable and take my work professionally. I have a friendly personality and have successfully taught well with all age groups. I’m very descriptive and detailed about my instructions. I understand the fundamentals step by step procedures and the orders that need to be taught.

What you should expect to learn:

Lessons 1-4

1. The “Foundation.” Determine if you are goofy or regular stance. Learning how to push, turn, balance, foot placement, stop, fall, build confidence, common mistakes and how to avoid them, make corrections and understanding them, and everything else you need to safely ride a board on flat terrain.

2. Safety is my number one priority. I’ll start by ensuring all safety equipment are put on correctly. I will inspect your skateboard setup to make sure everything is safe to ride. I’ll go over the name of each component and the purpose of each one.

3. Once you have the basics of skateboarding down, I will teach you some beginner tricks. This includes how to ollie, tic tac, and ride on ramps. It is important that you first learn how to do the basics.

4. Students who progress quickly or who have demonstrated confidence and ability may progress to ramp tricks, grinds, and flip tricks. Some of the tricks I’m able to teach include: 50/50 grinds, pop shuv it, noseslides, tailslides, kickflips, heelflips, 180’s, 360’s, dropping in, and more.

Lessons 5-8

5. GoSkate recommends a minimum of 6-8 lessons for students who have high-interest levels in skateboarding. During these lessons, I focus on building plans that will help students reach a level by starting with foundational tricks and progressing into more difficult tricks.

My Promise: I’ll make it fun and most importantly safe for your student to learn how to skateboard. I guarantee they’ll become a better skater after just one lesson. I’m passionate about teaching others to skate and confident I’ll give you the experience you are looking for. Please consider me to become your next instructor as I know you won’t be disappointed. Let’s learn to skate!
