Skateboarding
hey wassup. skateboarding rules! If you don't skate then go get a board and try it and if you do skate then check out this site cuz it also rules. If you want a list of skateparks in your state/country email me your state/country and I'll send you a list. if you are wondering what switch is, its when you ride the opposite way you usually do(when you ride goofy normally and you r riding normal or when you ride normal normally and you r riding goofy). If you are wondering what a fakie is, its when you do switch nollie tricks only there is no such thing as a switch nollie becasue its called fackie. a real nollie is when you r riding your normal stance.
Trick Tips
1.ollie
1.place one foot on the tail of the board and one in the middle
2.smack down on the tail, tilt your foot and slide it up, and jump all at the same time
3.practice this a lot(it took me 2 months so don't give up)
4.try to roll an ollie after you have learned it while not going and if you have a friend who can ollie have him show you one and watch really closely

2.kickflip
1.learn to ollie(preferably while moving)first
2.do an ollie only you have to kick out right when you push down on the tail and make it spin under your feet and tuck your legs into your body as much as you can
3. once it spins 1 time stomp your feet down and catch the board
4.extend your feet for the landing if your kickflipping a big stair/drop
5.this trick is pretty dang hard and i can't do it(I can ollie so don't think I suck)so don't get angry if you can't do it and smash the f---k out of your board if you can't do it
