Probably one of the most useful and well explained and miniramp trick tips. Also gets to the point and not some extra cringy or self-centered talking like most "youtube skaters" will do. Thank you for that.
Honestly, these are great tips. The only problem is that I've been skating 32 years and haven't gotten past step two. I'd also add to the "doing tricks properly" part, don't fudge your fakies and disasters - learn them on a ramp that requires you to lift your trucks or hang up and die. I lost a lot of years doing cheater fakies on a ramp with recessed coping.
I watched this video cause I was sure Margera was going to teach me some good shit. Not gonna lie I was disappointed once I realised theres no Bam here
I made all the mistakes you mentioned and so my frontside and switch game are terrible after 20 + years of skating. Correcting these mistakes after this long is like learning to skateboard all over again.... Which is.... SO FUN!
I’m subscribed to many guys on UA-cam but you are my favorite instructor. When ever I want to learn I always search your videos first then others. I probably leave like 10-20 views every day!
Yes! best mini ramp advice I've seen yet. No one has mentioned how crucial it is to learn all the pivots, not to mention sliding too. Being "light on your feet" was a key tip. already been applying it. Thanks Chad!
I've skated on off for 30 yrs , more off tbh , and my mini ramp skills plateaued around 28yrs a go , but this channel is probably the best I've stumbled across and next time I hit up a mini ramp I'll definitely but your ideas to use 👍👊👊😀
As an experienced mini ramp skater (32 years), I thought this was a great video. Maybe lesson 6 should be popping back in. Keep up the good work... subbed.
This is amazing Chad. So helpful. I haven't seen any of your other videos (yet) but if they're half as good as this, I'm in for a good time. Keep it up bro!
hey man thanks for these videos, best trick tips i’ve ever seen for miniramp. I started skating a year ago, and I skate a lot of miniramp and it’s good to see someone with great style and tricks explain their techniques, you’re killing it
Great video, all great tips. I really like number 1. when I'm skating a bowl and I have to watching guys do these set ups which are really there tricks. It's tough to sit through.. Lol
Love it. I'm still a beginner, but i love watching tricks on ramps. Street looks pretty rad too, but there's something about ramps. Maybe growing up in the Tony Hawk prime era helped with that. Good practical advice here.
Ben Degros and Chad Caruso....My two favorite UA-cam skaters chatting it up. Radical. Thanks to you both for the work you’ve done providing quality skateboarding content.
Always great vids Chad, I skated transition for years and am getting back into it again now, I'd be stoked to see a half cab pop tart(pop rock?) tutorial
Hi Chad, Really enjoying the videos and am learning a lot. Could you please mention where we should be looking/focusing during tricks. I recently saw in another video, a tip for coming in from disaster/fackie rock. The tip was to watch your back wheels to ensure you don't hang up. When I heard this it made complete sense. Can you give tips as to where to look focus for 5-0 grinds and other future tips? Keep up the awesome videos. Cheers.
concrete is so much harder to revert from stalls if your going in backwards or 180/270 i find my wheels just griping the concrete most of the time but wood is just slides
Hey Man do you have a suggestion for a basic street progression training program? Like what you do for mini ramp? Trying to hone in on my street foundations. Thanks!
Hello. Your videos are great. You can specify us what is your set up generally (your preferences for mini ramp): size of your deck, size of trucks and size of wheels (hardness for the slide) ? Thanks ;-)
I know it sounds crazy but i'm struggling to do my 50/50's inside the ramp, im always straight upright and more often then not i over balance and roll out on the platform lol, I'm working on it though. Great set of tips there thanks !
Clayton Norman woah that's some crazy zen talk ;) I'm doing OK going faster and coming at more of an angle I just have to do it more often to get used to it.
Great stuff chad, i only sk8 maybe twice a year now im 43 started skating in87. Just posted a few runson a nice mini ramp in florida. My first time skating in about a year. Not as fluent as i used to be but ok for not skating that much these days, im just stoked i can still roll. Check it out if you get time . Subscribed to your channel

George I love your vids

My “unique” thing is manualing down the ramp after a trick
And on every drop in
That's excellent, and difficult
Similar to my unique thing which is one truck mounted on top of the board and one underneath. I have to manual everything,even pushing.
lmaoooo same
Me too 😩
Fakie pop rocks always feel awesome when you get a good one. And they're a simple yet good looking trick. Win win.
When Tom Hardy quit acting and started giving skating advice
Yeah. I'm waiting for a boxing tutorial next 😂
I've been skating for 33 - 34 years & I still found this informative & a good reminder of things not to do / bad habits to avoid!
Honestly, these are great tips. The only problem is that I've been skating 32 years and haven't gotten past step two.

I met this guy at my local DIY on a semi rainy Sunday morning, he is super nice and rips! Glad I finally found this and subscribed lol keep it up bro!
Looks like Bam Margera on the miniature x)
Not gonna lie I’ve gotten that over 50 times
Chad Caruso you are asking for it ;)
was actually looking for this comment lol im from new zealand nice vid bro
Aur-Hell Morrison Yep
I watched this video cause I was sure Margera was going to teach me some good shit. Not gonna lie I was disappointed once I realised theres no Bam here

Anytime!
They just built a little skatepark where i live and i'm wanting to get back into skating. Your videos are awesome! Thank you.....subscribed!
Nice approach . Gonna learn my pivots and my wheel slides! Thanks for the tips!
This is honestly the best skate tip video for bowls that I’ve ever seen
This channel should at least have 200.000 subs
Thank you so much Young Kobe 🙏
What a mad lad skating when It’s snow around
I've skated on off for 30 yrs , more off tbh , and my mini ramp skills plateaued around 28yrs a go , but this channel is probably the best I've stumbled across and next time I hit up a mini ramp I'll definitely but your ideas to use 👍👊👊😀
Such good tips, I've been skating mini for years, but I'm always learning. I'll be thinking about what you say next time I skate. Cheers
I don’t even skate mini ramps but I can’t stop watching these videos
These videos made me go back to skating mini ramp. Thanks Chad!
I like this! I was skeptical but these are great tips! I'm guilty of some of the stuff you say and need to get better. Thanks!
Me too, Ronnie Creager. Me too. Camping on the coping is my biggest issue. Anyways, thank you for your contribution to skateboarding. You’re the man!
This has motivated me to properly drop in as I can do it I just don’t commit
You are very insightful. Thank you for your contribution to skateboarding!!
As an experienced mini ramp skater (32 years), I thought this was a great video. Maybe lesson 6 should be popping back in. Keep up the good work... subbed.
Notice how you have 0 dislikes on this video? Its because your a fucking boss keep it up man amazing video. Respect from NZ
Thanks man, I gotta make it out to NZ one day I’ve always wanted to go there
I love this video thanks bro
I'm a kook in skating but this definitely helped me
Great advice! Gives me something to shoot for. I the learn your pivots tips just makes so much sense. Thanks!

Really appreciate that Will
Great video, all great tips. I really like number 1. when I'm skating a bowl and I have to watching guys do these set ups which are really there tricks. It's tough to sit through.. Lol
Awesome video! Thanks Man!
Would be nice to learn fs and bs airs on the mini ramp
Hey Chad I liked how all of your points were well thought out and not just common sense. Would be awesome to see a Kicker ramp video or two from you
Thank you Lucas! I’ll try to make that happen
I'm surprised people don't know fakie pop rocks... They're the smoothest trick out there
Tricks on mini ramp, cool vid, good tips. I like the slide tip, and the pivot tip. Good stuff
Shoutout to all those skaters unironically tapping their trucks on axle grinds to have a unique style.
Love it. I'm still a beginner, but i love watching tricks on ramps. Street looks pretty rad too, but there's something about ramps. Maybe growing up in the Tony Hawk prime era helped with that. Good practical advice here.
Yeah same here. As I’m getting older I find the mini ramp is a bit easier on my body too
good advice, I've only been able to skate mini here and there. always wanted to learn more tricks on transition
I'm going to get working on my pivots👍
You have a sick channel Ben, definitely gonna check out some of your videos, give me a shout if your ever in NY!
Thanks Chad. I really hope I do make it out there but I have no idea yet.

Golden tips here, the pivot fakie tip opened my mind a lot thanks man!
Love to hear that, thanks for the comment!
Awesome vid. Definitely like the first and last steps. Power tricks first and style matters.
Thanks Josh 👊
Man that snow and cold must be hard on that ramp year after year.
Thanks man. Truly epic set of tips
This was very well thought out! Great advice to build upon.
Good video. Sound advice. How about frontside disaster,?
Iv been skating over 15 years im tryna get back into it so i guess ill restart on vert since i already know how to do eveythin else

Every street skater saving this vid to a private playlist.
This is the park I go to I love it there
concrete is so much harder to revert from stalls if your going in backwards or 180/270 i find my wheels just griping the concrete most of the time but wood is just slides
This was incredibly helpful could have used this video 20 years ago lol
33 years ago for me lol!
great tips! you have a specific deck/truck size you stick to for miniramping?
Great video. I'm surprised you don't have more subs, also can you do a trick tip on fs blunts and fs nose blunts
Thanks man, appreciate that! Definitely will be doing front blunt and front noseblunt in the near future
Awesome thanks
Hey Man do you have a suggestion for a basic street progression training program? Like what you do for mini ramp? Trying to hone in on my street foundations. Thanks!
Building a mini ramp. I like this one. How tall and wide do you think it is? Looks like a 5 foot to me but can't tell.
I was scrolling and thought this was Bam Margera but good video
Great tips, great explanation, great skating. SUBSCRIBED :)
Why can't all trick tip videos be this good. Earned a sub my dude
Appreciate that! Your channel looks sick by the way keep killing it
Thanks Chad. By the way, you inspired me to skate more transition. Love your channel
Tips were great!!! 👏🙀😺👌✌🏿
We have that same exact mini ramp. I was just there, the first time in at least ten years. I have no excuse now.
Your local park is sick!
How do you have snow on the ground but a clean mini ramp
This video is hella helpful
Great Advice, I Think This Video Will Help A Lot Of People. Great Video And As Always Keep Shredding Bro 😎
Thanks that means a lot 🙏
I've been skating for 33 - 34 years & I still found this video informative. It was also a reminder of things not to do!
Hello. Your videos are great. You can specify us what is your set up generally (your preferences for mini ramp): size of your deck, size of trucks and size of wheels (hardness for the slide) ? Thanks ;-)
What are all the pivots? Exits as well?
🤘🤘🤘 thanks for all the tricks tip 👍
Awesome video Keep having fun
Thanks you too!
This is a great and helpful video.
Appreciate that!
dude thank you so much
I know it sounds crazy but i'm struggling to do my 50/50's inside the ramp, im always straight upright and more often then not i over balance and roll out on the platform lol, I'm working on it though. Great set of tips there thanks !
pretend the deck is covered in water and you need to grind it but cant get your wheels wet
Clayton Norman woah that's some crazy zen talk ;) I'm doing OK going faster and coming at more of an angle I just have to do it more often to get used to it.
Great video dude, subbed!
Really helpful tips! Keep up the videos!!
Appreciate that, will do!
I go to this skatepark all the time
Dude this video is useful, fuck man wish I could skate rn
Come to FDR some time
Great tips!
For me i have to do a rock to fake or something first before another trick because i dont have enough speed
Great stuff chad, i only sk8 maybe twice a year now im 43 started skating in87. Just posted a few runson a nice mini ramp in florida. My first time skating in about a year. Not as fluent as i used to be but ok for not skating that much these days, im just stoked i can still roll. Check it out if you get time . Subscribed to your channel
