Skateboarding

is this question a joke?

what the hell: It's 900 degrees of rotation. If you're not an idiot, you would know that it is two and a half revolutions.

yup! there great! there are made by the nhs fun factory which also makes flip decks, indys etc. bullet skateboards are made from 100% pro maple wood deck which makes it have long lasting durability and pop!...THAT MEANS IT IS A PRO QUALITY DECK!. many other skateboard companys use the same standard deck AND THERE PROS!

I have skated with this deck for 3 months now and it feels awesome .and i heard there gonna make a skate team later on ........maybe, i dont know for sure.

no. riser pads are hard plastic that are mainly designed to give you more pop. shock pads also give some pop, but not much. the big difference is that shock pads greatly reduce the amount of pressure cracks you'll see in the deck. if you need to make a deck last for awhile, shock pads are the way to go.

jaydison lee cathers you can find him on facebook if u like add me on facebook

yes indoor skate parks are all around Maryland but hard to find

It's easier to kick flip just on flat because it will not hurt as much if you had fallen off down stairs. To kick flip off stairs you'll have to have a lot of speed to actually clear the steps clean and you will have to suppress your legs to absorb the impact so just stick to kick flips on the ground for now.

Tech Decks were introduced in 1998 by Steven Asher. California

The aerodynamics of a skateboard is the air that flow under and over the board. Example: when doing an ollie the pop at the tail of the board + the air pushing under it + the force from the front foot going up makes the board go airbourne into the ollie. The higher you bring your knees up, the farther up the board goes.

He is a skateboarder that is sponsored by a somewhat large skateboarding company called DGK, which stands for Dirty Ghetto Kids.

As funny as it is, skateboard trucks are sold separately. You buy them in a set anyway. One truck can cost from $10.00 to $25.00. So together, buying a brand new pair of trucks, they could cost as little as $20.00 or as much as $50.00 Some brands are: * Independant * Indy * Destructo * Venture * Fury * Thunder Most of them cost between $18.00 and $25.00 each these consist of * Independent * Venture * Thunder These come between the price range if they are raw. that means that they dont have color. The trucks that cost the most would Be Tensor Magnesium they cost $50.00 each

I think the most important thing is to define what you mean by skateboard coach. Do you mean someone to help a young skater with the actual act of Skateboarding, or more of the how-to-get-started-in-skateboarding-for-a-career type of coach?

Both will be somewhat hard to find in any legitimate sense, simply because part of the allure of skateboarding is that, simply put, there are no coaches.

When starting skateboarding it is an acheivement to be able to perform an ollie but when you have been skating for ages you can expect to get higher because of the added practice, there is no such thing as a normal ollie is all to do with practice and level of skill.

Hope i helped

But some bolts if you havnt already and just put them through the eight holes in the skateboard face down, (do each truck individually) then put the trucks on >>>>>>MAKE SURE THE BUSHINGS ARE ON THE INSIDE!!!!!!!<<< If not when you try to go left your board will go right, vice versa. Then finnaly put the bolts onto the srews so the trucks are sanwitched between the bolts and the deck and your done. But make sur the bushings ae on the inside!!!!!!

Step One

Stand on the board with your rear foot placed on the tail and your front foot between the middle of your board and the front bolts.

Place the ball of your rear foot in the middle of the board so that when you push the tail down, the ball of your foot feels the pressure.

Place your front foot nearly straight across the board.

Practice pushing down as fast as you can with your back foot and putting all your weight on the tail. This is the initial motion of the trick.

Notice that the harder you push, the more your board wants to keep going up once the tail is on the ground. You will use that motion in the next step.

Strike the tail on the ground and jump off with your rear foot as you slide your front foot up the board (so your knee moves toward your chest).

Drag the side of your foot up the board as you are jumping. This will cause the board to come up with your jump. Once both feet are in the air, the board will seem to stick to them.

Come back down

The length of a skatboard varies. Lengths range from "trick" shorties a foot or so long to the "standard" boards with inch lengths in the 30s. Longboards are longer still, and they can even be as long as 8 feet.

I ran mine over with a car and it held it is pretty amazing how much it can withstand!

Longboard skateboarding is form of surfing and snowboarding combined. With the fast flow and rhythm of surfing and the hard griding surface of pavement and carving turns of snowboarding. To ride one, you must combine these two with you confidence to succeed. Once all three are combined, put both feet facing perpendicular to the longboard... maybe angled a little foreward for comfort. Face down the hill and begin the roll. Now, moving at a rapidly accelerating speed, start leaning to one side putting emphasis on the front foot, either the toes or the heel depending on the side you are turning to. then coming to one side of the street switch the weight to the heel or toe,(the side opposite of the one you were on) use this technique to carve the whole width of the street. If you start gaining too much speed deepen your turns and make them sharper by putting more weight to the side ure turning.

Not really, the don't fit flush and get ground off quite quick so your truck kinda collapses if you go in hard or at an angle...

your feet might not be in the right position or you can loose balance. the one i hate the most is tripping on pebbles.

That depends on wheel hardness and strength. The only thing that can happen if you powerslide is your wheels can wear away in one spot making part of the wheel flat. If this happens, you wheels are ruined. Other than that powersliding cant really damage the rest of your skateboard.

Check if you've really gotten the right kind.

Check the wheel and the axle for any burrs that the bearing might be catching on.

The state of Maine doesn't have any laws against skateboarding, but the individuals towns and cities are given authority to define and regulate the activity themselves.

Depends get like and old giftcard that's square and then get a real techdeck or imagine once cut it out bend the ends a little and ta daa you go a snowboard/ skateboard. Or you can buy a set and take the wheels off and exchange them with other boards.
