Aaron in the background : FIRST TRY
HAHA lmao
😂😂😂
XDDD
😂😂
I read that in his voice lmaooo
when i fall i only realize I've fell after i hit the ground lmao
why is that me
same lmao
Alrighty Sameeee I only realize I’ve fell once my chin hits the concrete 😂
SAME
that was literally me two days ago
Wear vans. They always land upward
Nikki Marquez underrated
Lol
no you need to become the vans
Lol is this a myth like all cats land on their feet
best comment
I love how they have footage of fetty falling in every way 😂
Watching this right after watching how Fetti broke his jaw...
This may be the most important video in this channel.
Agreed
Yeah Since I Started Skating And Need Advice
I've been waiting for this one.
Yeah? Guess what ua-cam.com/video/Hundbrub8iQ/v-deo.html
@@HororKodStudio - yes, but this one here is way better
I went to a skate park once with tons of kids. They all had the gear but were afraid to fall. So me and a friend told them all to put the board down and skid down on your knees. Once they practiced falling they werent afraid anymore and the board came second. Everyone had a good time and at the end everyone was shredding that quarter pipe. Ages 7-25. I forgot about this until this vid. Thanks for the memories
That's awesome dude
Yeah i see that in every drop in video. The newer skaters are always sliding down on their knees first, and the pros are always so casual about falls from insane heights. They just *slide*
420th like cuhz
Very cool:)
Didn’t ask
Not everyone skates on smooth ass ground.
If i fall on my spots all of my skin is going to be ripped off my flesh.
Doublepump maybe change location
DarkZone Attractions I live in a stupid as* country that doesn’t have any smooth ground except asphalt. The only skate park in my area is 20 km’s away and is filled with 5 year olds climbing ramps. So no, I can’t change location
@@defnekonuk8966 I know that shit. Asphalt ist cracked af and skatepark is so tiny. If your board slips away you hit nearby cars. Total bullshit.
You gotta learn to roll
My spots are rough too. Ive learned to roll a lot. Imma fall either way so i pick whichever fall will give me the least injury
I'm the guy who will watch this and be like ,"oh cool" and then break my arm while trying it.
Hahahaha
Hahah
YEAH.
Lol fr
Sliding is great when youre in a skatepark with perfect ground but what if youre on asphalt? That shit doesnt slide..
SelimHammi parkour roll
The roll only works when you are going at a certain speed.. but going fast can be scary.. I often find myself falling straight down because Im going too slow
@@SelimHammi naw you should be able to roll at any speed, including from static.
This is an area I think skateboarders are behind on, they've not really thought about this much. I think skateboarders should be looking to Judo and other grappling art "breakfalling" technique. These guys have mastered the art of being slammed to the ground mostly against your will in the safest possible ways. Ironically, a lot of the principles the little Latino dude said about the "parkour roll" apply to Judo breakfalling. In Japanese, it's called "ukemi".
I seriously recommend you search "ukemi" and "breakfall" and "how to" to learn a much better approach than what skateboarders can enunciate. There are some variations in the approaches to ukemi between the arts like western wrestling, judo, and Sambo, but all are sound.
If ur going fast enough ya i mostly skate street n I skate some pretty rough concrete may cut u up but better to have a cut than breaking a bone
Yeaa.. I have an electric skateboard 30-40km\h.. mostly drive it at 25-30km\h and I fell once but I guess it was 10km\h or so.. I had the MOST budget board at that time that you can buy and the wheels were too small to go over the curb and it hooked onto it with the truck mounting screw.. I flew but there was no choice in doing a roll or slide... as I started to fall onto ONCOMING TRAFFIC... oh man.. I still just pretty much landed like in a push up position.. hurt a bit with some flesh wounds but no broken bones thankfully.. and didn´t fall into oncoming traffic cause I am typing atm this to you lol. Anyway I don´t think you can actually really LEARN how to fall from a skateboard, you might think ok Im gonna roll but then break something and you wouldn´t have broken anything if you didnt roll.. or slide and vice versa... just take it slow on sketchy things and if you wanna do some fast riding or tricks then you just have to know that if you fall it is gonna be 50\50 of breaking bones or dying lol

*breaks neck while falling off skateboard*
Crush:u ok?
Me: yes no pain im okay no worries
what?
Your crush watches you skate?
alien cheeks no I get it , don’t whooosh me. I said that because I was going to imply “man I wish my crush would care enough about me to watch me skate “
Ahem meant to do that
bahahah I scratched my ankle and knee and I was like yeah i’m fine
I kinda wish Braille would wear helmets when they're skating, especially when they're doing more dangerous stunts because it would help normalize wearing a helmet.
Some do now if you watch the dreamland video one guy idk his name is wearing full gear
lame
@@rieu2728 alright poser
poser na skater bet you won’t be saying that when you fracture your wrist like me
@@hafsatoudiallo108 u put ur hand out and fractured ur wrist. because you put ur hand out! lmao
Friend: hey what are you doing?
Me: I’m just practicing my *falling*
me rn lmao
🤣🤣🤣👍👏👏👏
When I was like 13 or so I got talked into going to a skate park for the first time because it was the hip thing to do. I didn't own a board and had never been on one before yet for some reason my friends at the time wanted me to do a drop-in on a half pipe. After some convincing I agreed and posted up at the top. I had no idea what I was doing and they didn't give me any advice other than "it's easy." 3 seconds later I fell off the top of the half pipe and smashed my tailbone with max force. The pain was immeasurable, it felt like lightning was surging up my spine into my brain and then permeating through my entire body for A FULL WEEK! I never skated again since and my back has been in excruciating pain ever since that day. I wasn't able to play sports any more in school or do anything physical anymore either because it hurt so much just to stand up let alone run around.
ohh dude I'm so sorry to hear about that. Tailbone pain is always the worst and I was cringing while reading this :(
Bro I'm sorry but those aren't real friends
Time to get new friends bro
toasty True. I hit mine on the ground bc my friend pushed me. It cracked, and it haves now a small crack. I always cry when i get up after sitting.
Your mama coulda sued their mamas tbh
The sweeping with the arms and the roll are by far the best to learn. As nice as sliding would be, in the real world without polished concrete and smooth wood it doesn't happen.
You try and slide on regular skatepark concrete, a road or the street and your clothes and skin grip immediately and tear. The best thing is to curl up and hope that you roll it out.
As it's said, "Speed has never killed anyone, suddenly stopping, that's what gets you". The more gradual you can slow yourself down, the safer you will be.
well said, luckily all my local skateparks have been remade or resurfaced over the last 5 years or so, and have very smooth polished concrete, i still dont fall well though, but its certainly better on that surface than it was. i need to learn the swipe and slide...
and if i skated rough asphalt etc, the tuck and roll. ;)

FACTSSS
i dont get it
LMAOAO
every month...
wish i would have had that info 30 yrs ago. When I was around 10 yrs old was "trying" to ride a skateboard down a hill, got speed, didn't know how to stop. Saw a wall in front of me and stuck my arms straight out. Suprised my wrists didn't end up in my shoulders! Never got on another board again. Love watching you all now, falls and all. Keep up the good work! I once thought skateboarding was just a "thing" but now see just how cool it really is!
Oh wow! For sure learn to ride on flat
It's never too late to resume skateboarding, i'm 43 years old and resume it at 43 a couple of weeks ago.. But i agree falling hurts more after 40 and my legs and my equilibrium are no more as sharp as they were 20 years ago ! Anyway i won't quit and keep trying tricks as before when i was in my 20's..
Literally JUST NOW fell off my board for the first time since starting riding 3 months ago... I don't know how, but as i feel i instinctively recalled this video and pushed of the floor. Injury avoided! Thanks Carlos!
First fall after 3 months, you must be really lucky. Busted my lip on my second day which was my second real fall. I’m literally preparing to fall at least 5 times each day.
Carlos is so chill
Maybe it’s just me but when I fall it makes me wanna ride even more cause I realized it didn’t hurt as much as I was thinking it would
I haven't fall yet that's why I'm so hesitant and careful when i skateboarding, I kinda wish to experience a safe fall
@@noonh120 just practice rolling on concrete or soft grass, muscle memory will be implanted if you do it every day
Me to
I fell today rlly hard trying to power slide and after that I just pick my skateboard and go home
I lose all my confidence after falling makes me don't wanna skate no more for that day
(my hand is okay but it hurts like a b*tch)
Hey kid I'm a beginner too and you're going to be a f****** Pro that's like 85% of the struggle right there
neighbor tomorrow looks at my garden and wonders why I'm throwing myself, sweeping and rolling on the grass ... well, I'm coming back to skateboarding after a 15 years pause... am sort of scared of injuries.
thanks for the video! good tips
It’s also important to get really low to the floor to reduce impact
honestly not enough people say this ^^
Bro that is like the best advice that I have ever gotten ever it literally applies to everything you do on a skateboard
Can't get any closer to the floor than falling lol
well i have been #helmetgang since i started skating at 3 years old and im not changing #helmetgang for life. (also nice video)
landon.t20 I’m helmet, knee, elbow, but pads gang forever! I don’t care what people say. Nobody is going to pay for my health bills
faaactss
@@jydy5683 cringe mate, spend 20 bucks on a parkour lesson and they will teach you how to fall. Helmets are fine but you look like a tosser with anything else.
Oliver Koura I only use a helmet and gloves I do extreme downhill longboard racing and go downhill like 40 mph soo
me: *falls*
mom: you ok?
me: yep
me: *tearing up*
mom: you sure?
me: yep perfectly fine
also me: *sobbing*
This is going to be me when I get my first board and start riding I have no balance and have always been afraid of anything like skateboards or roller skates but I've decided to get over my fear and for the first time break some bones and cry a lot
@@Maraudersbandstuff lmao same, i just got a skateboard, fell on the first day lol. it gets better once youve fell and you realize its not that scary :D
Yeah this was me when I broke my wrist today but to my friend
watched this video while sitting on my chair waiting for my arm to stop hurting after trying a shuv it lmaooooo
edit: fractured my elbow :(
Next tutorial on how to commit to get over the fear may be a good one, and I think i'm not the only one have troubles with that so it may help a lot of new skaters! Keep up the good work Braille!
Lilly. I am sorry, but they really can‘t help people to get over the fear of hurting yourself. It’s an instinct to avoid injuries. But if you skate, you just have to try to turn of your brain and just enjoy the moment. Before i landed my first Ollie down a Stairset i must have fallen a thousand times, but that‘s just part of the game. Just get up again and once you land a trick you‘ve been desperate to do, it is one of the best feelings you will ever experience.
I am afraid most of the time while i'm skating, i just do it, just don't think about it
I have to correct myself. They just uploaded a video about commiting
U don't need a tutorial for dat itz all in ur mind 💯
personally it helps me to think in my mind like i already landed it and I'm just doing it again. Sometimes ill even tell myself im like married to the trick and pretend im like a 40 year old man who just married a trick and no matter what happens i can't just cop out because im scared because my mom won't let me move back home.
The parkour roll is the way to go. I use it a lot in my videos. I am 36 and just starting to learn, so I fall A LOT. But being able to disperse the impact energy makes it easier. Oh and if you are not sure WEAR PADS!!! #helmetgang
Timberr
Plus I can mount a GoPro on my helmet;)
Noice
so much easier to fall on a snowboard.
Wear gloves too, I did the "rag doll" fall except my hands slid on the pavement and got a nasty roadrash since it ripped a good chunk of flesh off.
So, here's my question just so I can confirm this for myself: It's *NOT* embarrassing if I go out in public with full protection?
Yes it is embarrassing, safety is for pussies. "Hospital bills, broken bones, and worried parents is totally rad; worth impressing some stranger's" Come on man they talked about safety gear for half of the video!
@@Studmuf-Rockin at least its better wearing gear insted of dying
A lil embarrassing but ur life is more important than some strangers opinions
@@spencer3749 That is very true
If someone is having a bad enough day to judge you, then be glad that you are having fun unlike them. As a skater, I love seeing beginners (assuming you are sorry if I’m wrong) start skating as it shows how much it’s growing. Any skater will love to see a board under your feet protection or no protection.
"You have enough time to think about it"
Me: falls off and hits the ground as fast as possible so I dont have any time to think about anything
I think they mean like when you jump on stairs or sth
What if you’re on the streets, can’t really slide lol
The_Seal_Keeper Do the rag doll one or the parkour move.
@@shawty865 dude thats gonna rip my skin off my flesh
SomethingElse That kind of comes with the territory my dude.
@@ArthurKingoftheBritons404 ye my streets have these ,,anti ice" pebbles on them it would literally tear my whole skin off
If your on the street and fall roll over your shoulder
Yep. Falling with my arm stiff is how I broke my elbow skateboarding🤕
Broke my leg
Same man, happened to me two weeks ago, cant wait to get back out skating again, I broke my elbow doing a fs lipslide on a parking curb
I sprained my knee after falling forward and locking up my knee to stop the force, but that didn’t work so after that I instantly fell forward and slammed my knee in the concrete gravely road
The board slipped out from under and I landed on my elbow. I also broke it
need a bag of ice?
Falls down*
Fingers: I guess I’ll die.
Wrist: guess I'll die
Whole body: guess I’ll die
Life: I guess I’ll die
Ghost: But I rolled!
I've been skating for 7 years, I still find this videos of "how to fall" as the most important thing I've learned and keep watching just in case
I'm not going to lie it's f****** hilarious lump like I just keep eye contact with him and stare back like what the f*** are you looking at bro I'm like a new species to them or some s***
I wish I’d watched this before breaking my elbow yesterday lol
toxicolocat same? Lmao
When I'm falling I'm so freaked out my lizard brain takes over and there's no controlling what my reflexive reactions will be.
So I'm not alone.
When i fall, i don't even notice until I'm on the ground.
I don't even notice frontside kick turning on a ramp.
my brain: ok I get it I don’t put my arm!
my body: rEfLeX
bruh i swear this is so true 😂
Literally I broke my arm in 2 places and fractured it twice as well, and I blame reflexes
@@kemerykreates7839 me rn lmaoo broke my forearm in 2 places
@@4dlvnn ouch! hope you feel better :((
Wait. Why are they using a green screen for an image of a wall that they have.
There’s a lot of echo in the Braille house. So if they do it in a room with a green screen the quality will be much better
Audio quality.
I don't think it's a green screen. It's a camera trick. The camera is far away, the subjects are away from the wall, and they zoom in to get rid of the extra background and get the subject in frame.
If you watch The Office - "Survivor Man" there are a few shots where the scene is close, but the camera zooms in/out to show how far it actually is.
I just realized that.
If the green screen was for better audio quality and why have it there I sought any one would care what’s in the background,and they film in the normal area all the time so why even use a small room
I like the Fetty fall.
The way he falls can be used for more than just skateboarding. He's in an immediate position to pop back up which is crucial in a lot of sports.
Just crawl it out
I prefer the roll to double backflip out
With his legs like this \ /
He don't fall, he dance.
I like this channel but this is lame: About helmets: "dont do what we do, do what we tell you to do" That never works.
Aaron: "You are not looked down as a beginner if you wear a helmet. Use the gear"
But also: never wears a helmet himself.
7:11 And also Carlos:" Wear a helmet if you feel you are a beginner and enjoy free skating once you mastered it."
There is a contradiction: you are not looked down as a beginner, you will be looked down as a beginner.....
Tony Hawk is a better role model.
the point is that it's all on personal preference
they're saying that if you feel like you want to protect yourself, go for it and don't feel bad about it just because some losers think it's uncool. but also, you have the choice of not wearing, although it's probably a better idea to wear protection if you're a beginner
Mike Vallely is a great role model for wearing helmets. A badass old school pro skater that not only encourages people to wear a helmet, but wears one himself too. Walks the walk.
Why should they have to wear helmets it’s a personal choice I can’t stand all these helmet police like it’s skateboarding it’s supposed to be dangerous
@@gh0stykinsno ong. 😂
Most embarrassing thing is falling in the middle of the streets and you see the cars seeing if they should help you or not and you’re just like “I’m ok” *dies in slow pain*
After I've watched this video I went skating and landed my first shove it on concrete :D Thank you so much!!!
You guys touched on it in the end about being healthy, but being in good physical shape has a huge impact on being able to walk away from a fall. Not only stretching and being limber, but also muscle mass helps build bone density which means less chance of breaking a bone. Being an old ass man, my advice to anyone wanting to start skating or get back into it, who is not in the best physical shape, is to cross train. Ride a bike, do yoga, lift weights, go for a run, a walk, or even ripstick it up(please don't), whatever it takes to get the body moving, and your chance for injury goes way, way down. Plus the better shape you are in, the higher you can ollie, it's science.
I feel like ripsticks are barely acceptable. Scooters the real one here
Not really I don't stretch n I'm fine my way to stretch is to warm up with my actual tricks
Same, but I'm guessing you're already in good shape and pretty good at skating. My comment was more meant for people who maybe weren't in the best of shape and wanted to learn to skate. Shred on!
Hell yeah bro, I totally agree. I am 38 and that is some good advice. When I was younger I never would get hurt...skateboarding, dirt bikes, skiing, and I crashed hard many many times. But getting older means the body isn’t as able to withstand impact the way it used to....and when people tell me I am too old to be getting back into skateboarding I just wanna flip them off haha....live to skate and skate to live!
I'm getting back on the board after nearly a 10 year hiatus and I'm 42. Definitely not too old brotha!
Look at Rodney Mullen the best sk8r Eva and he wore protective gear for almost his whole skate carrier
Thank u guys, for those "fall" suggestions. I am a new skate boader, and I am determined to keep going, learning to fall properly and overcome my fears. Thank u again!
I appreciate all the Braille videos. After taking 20 years off from skateboarding and only recently getting back into it these past 2 years, I needed to relearn things and get encouragement. I am also part of a 3 person team (The Active Grind) in the Nashville-Franklin-Spring Hill Tennessee area. We are guys in our late 30's early 40's who got back into skating and are helping kids aged 5-14 learn and pursue skateboarding. I quickly had to step up and relearn a lot in order to be able to help teach these kids and these videos have been great.
Thank you guys, always!
Even just watching you skate made me learn so much!
Just the other day I was trying to learn how to get down curbs and, trying, I fell backwards
If I wouldnt have seen any of your videos, Id probably have a broken hip or butt, but thanks to you I knew what to do and I ended up completely uninjured; keep up the good work guys, spread the skateboard knowledge!!
The key is keeping momentum
Yeah, was gonna say this, and if you're not going fast enough to commit you don't have enough momentum!
SPEED IS KEYYYYY
I AM SPEED
Aaron and the braille team thanks for all the videos. For a 40+year old dad who has a couple of daughter's interested in skating, it has made it so much easier learning how to skate again. Thanks.
I broke my left wrist three times because I didn't know how to fall...
No wrist guards?
I sprained my wrist really bad my first time
Also always wear helmet ⛑! This notion that you should lose them once you are comfortable is bs.
I'm 31, recently got back into skating after a 10 or so year hiatus. Was going to a local skate club run by a local legend and pro and on my second week there I was trying the 2ft mini ramp out (whoops) and slipped out when coming down switch, threw my left arm out to catch myself, went stiff and broke my shoulder socket (bigger whoops). I've had surgery to pin it all back together and should be good to go in another month. I definitely should have paced myself more and learned to ragdoll rather than go stiff and throwing a single arm out. It's not put me off skating at all and I'm desperate to get back to it! Thanks for the video!
Get better soon! props to you for getting back into it
respect :)
Get well soon dude :D im 33, started skating like 2 years ago with an electric skateboard to just chill and cruise around. Drove 2000km without a single accident or fall.. until a taxi drove over the board.. but this instantly made me realize HOW MUCH I loved skating... I had that freak incident with the taxi but I managed to hop off before it drove over it.. but being without a new board for 8months was HORRIBLE... I just so wanted to chill and ride again every single day... Got a cheaap ass board for a second, fell from it a couple of times, still wanted to ride even more. Now finally got an amazing board, smooooth as butter ride and noisless and 30-40km\h.. it is soooo good to chill and just ride man. Find it funny as I started this so late, guess mostly that I always wanted to more chill and ride then do tricks but living in a flat city a regular longboard made no sense for years.. until the electrics finally started to appear. Best purchase in my life I think lol.
Thanks man, I actually went back to the skate club last night to catch up with everyone and just to push around a lil! :)
The two nicest guys i know, teaching me how to take care of myself... My skate life can't be better 👌🏼
My brother used to have a plastic mini ramp. When I would drop in on it I aimed it towards the grass, practiced, then proceeded to concrete. Using grass doesn’t make you lame. Whatever you need to do to build confidence, do it. Love these videos guys. Keep em’ coming 😊
The next video will be how to suicide without dying
Damn that's so fucking smart
Not funny
@@smack_dab he's a gamer so he's funny
@@mihnea7550 i see. Right on
eagle gamer Wish I could die without suicide...
Is always good to hear advices from experienced skaters. I feel that a skater have to ride as many times on the week as possible. This will bring more comfortable as you stand on a board. I came back skating for one year now and I'm learning evey day that I ride. I've learned to fall better and better, don't hurting myself really hard. Thanks for a great video.
I love how Aaron thinks that I’m smart enough to protect myself from falling when in reality it takes 2 mins to realize I’m falling then processing it😐
GREAT video guys! I missed this originally, but the message still holds true in 2021! I am 47 and just started skating again...I skated in the mid 80's thru the 90's and then stopped....just starting again and am going to wear protective gear for sure!
10:37 Aaron had a cut while it didn't affect Carlos :D
You guys should do BMX Vs Skateboarding, just like how you guys did scootering vs skateboarding
I’m thinking about getting into this. But I’m 55 and everyone is telling me I’m nuts. These kind of UA-cams are helpful!!!!!
Thank you so much for this video!!!! I'd kind of stopped trying because I had a couple of bad falls and started to really worry about the consequences. Can't wait to have these falls in my toolbox.
I just dropped in on my buddy’s ramp yesterday an trued to catch myself with my hands and fractured My wrist on the growth plate just yesterday I still am pondering that I just broke my wrist an on christmas break on all the times you know well have a great Christmas I love your videos you, and TonyHawk are my inspirations for learning the half pipe, and hopefully getting the chance at certain the future well I love your videos keep it up, and merry Christmas God Bless. I would love to talk to you more about skateboarding someday😁
i stoped skateboarding because I was so afraid of breaking my ankle, but ironic enough, I broke it when I was doing gymnastics 5-6 yeas ago. I did a front flip 360 and I twisted my ankle so bad that I broke off the corner of the main bone in my leg. needless to say, ill start skateboarding again anytime soon
@No xD
Sweeping the ground is definitely the best falling tip I've heard so far!
Totally!!!
Thanks guys! Great video. I recently got a Boosted Stealth and definitely needed this video. I recently got a new helmet and got some wrist guards coming in the mail. I’m in SF too and am using my board mostly as a commuter vehicle and I know/dread the eventual hard fall at 16-24mph on our rough SF streets.
I usually wear a helmet because I have the thought that when I fall on my back my neck will swing back and I’ll smack my head on the ground. Though most times when I’ve fallen I’ve noticed that I instinctively tuck and curl my head forward without thinking about it.
in 1997, when I was 14, I was switch bombing a hill in hayward.. speed wobbles and fakie 4 wheel slide (I was told by my friend who was with me) sent me head first into a parked car which put me in a coma, broke my wrist and thumb. I had tears all over my brain and a tear in my brain stem, I also chipped my neck. died multiple times within the first few hours too. 2 weeks later when I was conscious and on my way to healing, I was sent to vallejo to go through rehab. all I did when I was there was watch skate videos and the shop I had been going to since I was little (the station, in fremont) sent me posters and videos. the day after I was released from the hospital I skated. the CHP confiscated my board from the accident scene (kelly hill is an unincorperated part of hayward) the doctors at the rehab center wanted me to wait at LEAST 6 months before I skated again but I had brought my board to my 2 month follow up appointment and noseslid the red curb to show that I was ready to skate again. I was told I had to wear a helmet from then on since I had a brain injury. skateboarding both took and saved my life. my balance is shit now and I gained a ton of weight and I can no longer skate like I once did. watching the braille videos gave me the itch to skate again, I still havent, but I want to. oh well.
xlifeiswarx wow
oh boy! I Just fell down last week when I rode my board on a downhill and broke my jaw. Now I am in a huge pain and not able to eat and talk normally in the next few weeks. I am not sure if I should skate again, but I want to... you seems much more brave than me.
Actually he helped me the most by telling the story about his broken foot and continued skateboarding couple of months later.
bc I litteraly broke the same bones just two weeks ago and feared that I wouldn’t ever be able to skateboard anymore 🙈
You really got me cheered up again, thx all of you guys for this video, even if it’s 3 years old already!!
Growing up I played soccer and MMA. I used to just bail hard core. And I took the pain. I'm glad I found this video.
even tony hawk wear helmet..
He's older than 50 years so... :D
Your Buddies what made tony hawk is his ability to curl up and absorb a fall from a vert ramp via pads. So yea
He gets paid to
He skates vert ramps lol
He skates huge ramps. Pads are necessary for vert. For street they are not practical. You can still hit your face or break bones with a helmet and pads.
I had multiple Trojan man ads during this video 😂
Same
You must have ad personalization on
NoVaEliTe101 me too there trying to say we need to protect are self as we fall
Very cool video. I was talking to a friend about falling while skating and this video came at a great time . I just shared it with him
Nice video Aaron and Carlos! I've landed on my wrist twice in a week trying tricks and they were pretty soft impact, so I'm glad I saw this before I tried to learn some harder tricks.
"ragdoll" literally what I do on instinct. I just go limp and let gravity take me. sucks still but it does less damage.
back shoulder roll instead of slide, you don’t slide on rough terrain
Love the pro protection attitude! Keep it up guys
I am terrified of falling and this has been holding me back for a while. After watching this video, I think I'll be less scared when trying to learn new tricks. Thanks!
This makes my less scared of trying out skating after watching NY street skating vids
You guys should build a mini-mega ramp to do grabs and stuff.
Maybe a *6ft* ramp to a small quarter pipe ( not vert )
It was on one of these ramps where I tried an airwalk ( never done a grab this hard before, haven't even kickflipped yet )and rolled down the hip on the other side... I stilled rolled onto my feet at least
That sounds vert
6 ft,quater pipe?
@@bobbyhill6295 It's a mini-mega ramp, so theres a run up and something to ramp off of
The run up is 6ft tall and a straight ramp all the way down
This is really profound in many ways... applies to both literal and figurative falls. "I want to learn... scary... try it... get over that fear." Fear of trying anything new... a relationship, a job, a sport...
Thank you I’m really glad I found this video because the first time I tried skate boarding I went on a long board down my steep driveway and got a spiral fracture in my leg and I wanted to learn how to fall correctly without having to use crutches again.
I first learned to skate in the late 90s, I remember my mum buying me a book of how to skate. I swear half the book taught how to fall.
Well I needed this awhile ago when I broke me ankle lmaoo this is a good video
Sara Medina lol he just posted the video a minute ago
I bet you tensed your body up hahaha
Danny9269 yea I did haha
Julian Flores oops I meant like idea for a video
me too i fell on my face (im serious i chipped my tooth)
Thank you for addressing the gear, too! Very helpful.
Best teacher evaaah 💝💝💞
On my first day i broke my leg lol but i dont care skating is my life
How did you break it the first day 😂
"It's like a slip-n-slide of knee ability." Aaron Kyro 6:11
😂🤣 as I just broke my arm skating a half pipe last week....Now this video pops up! Terrific!!
This is great and so important. If this were the only video you ever made, it would be worth your view count. Keep the great content coming.
Hi,
Great video!!
Could you maybe do one about longboard tricks??
I'm here after getting winded 3 times today.
Update 6/24: add Sprained ankle to the list lmao
that's really helpful. I'm trying to drop in on this vert ramp and I need to learn how to fall properly
i'm teaching my son to skate and these were really helpful tips /reminders!
Today I broke my arm. That's why I am watching this video now. Ironically, I was wearing full set of protection, and the arm broke at place covered by the wrist protection.
1:34 confirmed.
Thanks for the video, maybe I'll use your advice after the doctor will allow me to skate again.
A lot of the time in skateboarding pads make it worse it gives you a false sense of security. Bottom line is skateboarding is a tough sport your going to fall and sometimes your going to break stuff just the way it goes
Bro I’m telling u when people who are good at skateboarding fall it’s so cool cuz they do it so gracefully. When I fall I always hit my head and belly flop or just hit my knee or elbow so bad
I started to get into parkour before quarantine and I'm happy to know I can transfer what I know to skateboarding.
im 35years old recently started to skateboarding and its extremely helpful and if i watched before start to skate would be more helpful but thantks!!!
