Never given lessons Confident I could do so. Got a nice bag of tricks. Flip tricks rails ramps. Not professional but could definitely get kids on there way
. It’s not about what tricks you know it’s about bringing out the kids potential. I’m not in street league so I don’t teach in monkey see monkey do manners. I help develop foundation tricks tricks that feel natural. I don’t teach to imitate I want young skaters to develop their own style. I got lost in tricks that I thought I HAD to do once I realized how to skate for myself I learn that tricks that come natural develop into BIGGER tricks later. I don’t teach how to tre flip and dig into them into they learn in I teach them to find their own tricks so they can paint their own picture for sponsorships. I don’t think coaches can do HALF the things they teach but yet they still make champions out of average people with an interest |
I have taught friends and instructed younger kids who have come to the skatepark. I was instructed myself two years ago in Minneapolis. I can teach tricks such as frontside and backside flips hard flips fakie hardflips frontside and backside halfcab flips tre flips frontside big spins varials ect. |
I have giving advice to local Skaters on learning or making a trick I have judged Skate competitions. I am a Skate Rat from the 80’s and I am friends with Bill from Bills Wheels of Santa Cruz CA. I can teach virtually any flip trick air grind there is as well as the basics kick turn push etc. I understand the physics and the Art of Skateboarding. I enjoy children and have 3 of my own. |
Have unofficially trained many intentionally and unintentionally was always a leading mentor and ifluence in the local scene and community of skateboarders/ing…i usually find a strong foudation in flatground(tricks) is the most empowering and appropriate. I am also very competent with rail tricks and grinds(ledge and rail) with all that combined keep in mind its all applicable for any “type” of skating regardless of preference or endeavor. |
Some kids!! Nothing big . Frontside 180backside 180Ollie puv shuvit flip.
Ive always provided my help to anyone who has wanted it that i have skated with ever since i knew how. I am an all around skateboarder from street to vert and could teach basic flip and grab tricks but i could mainly focus on the fundamentals of riding transitions and ollies. |
