Skating is easy to do alone when you have no friends

“Skating alone is time for practice. Skating together is time for flexing” - Gandhi probably
Nuh...Abraham Lincoln said that
Pretty sure it was hillary clinton

Good philosophy
Helen Keller I think
“Skateboarding you can do anywhere, anytime”
Snow, rain, no concrete spaces, night time area without lights, enters the chat
.
I remember when I started skating, it would ONLY be at night at this basketball court cause I used to get nervous in the day. And when I skated with someone for the first time at night, he couldn't do anything cause it was "too dark" so I basically got night vision now, lol
hills and cracks have entered the chat
“Hating your bearings and deck” kicked snow and rain from the chat
anything is skateable if you’re brave enough
If you bring a wireless speaker then either you play something that a lot of people like or you are going to be "that guy" in the skate park
I bring my speaker because earphones give me a headache now, and I typically play something everyone vibes to but sometimes I genuinely don't give a shit and will play whatever. Guess I'm "that guy"
@@dylanholding98 kk
I didn't realize skating alone isn't the norm lol
yeah i don’t have any friend who skate
@@eihtoneiht1320 I bmx not skate, but go to a skatepark and meet people. I hang out with both skaters and bmx riders, and I wouldn’t have stuck with it without them.
I do it all the time. I thought it was normal but I've had a few skater friends ask who Im skating with and when I say myself they act shocked or comment something like "oh so you ain't going with anyone?". But I've landed my first heelflip skating for an hour in the evenings for a few nights by myself.
Haha yea
Yeah I was the same until I inspired my friends to start skating and now we have a sick lil friend group
For the consistent tip someone (I think Bruce Lee but I could be wrong) said "I do not fear the man that practiced a thousand kicks in one day, I fear the man that practiced one kick for a thousand days."
@Moses legendary
Definitely not Bruce Lee ...
Be fearless -Bruce Lee
@@gainsville8316 I looked it up and it was Bruce lee "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times" - Bruce Lee
Words of wisdom
@Uncle Adolf 100 baby
Skating alone can be sketchy sometimes though folks, I went out skating alone one time and somehow found my way back to my friends with a concussion, don’t remember where I was, how long I was unconscious (if I was), how I fell. Glad they were close by though and I didn’t end up worse off. So just be safe out there homies 💙
o damn
Rule n⁰1 of skating alone: don't do anything that's too dangerous and wear a helmet even if you feel dumb with it.
Yea I usually go out with my brother, even though he doesn’t skate it just makes me feel better if there is someone else there that I can call on if needed.
Im more scared of all the wasps where I’m at. I never have been stung and as a result am scared of being allergic and not knowing.
I have no skating buddies yet and I am very new to this, so I do it in a semi-public place in case I get badly injured. Nice to have a fired department neaby also😂
I barely skate with anyone, ( I have no friends that skate ),so I decided to put in my airpods and play my favorite music, and I just blew threw my progression. I go kickflips more consistent, almost landed my first treflip and backside flip. Before, I barely had kickflips and I would get bored easily.
Frrrrrrr
Same my first week i would get unmotivated and bored. Id also get self conscious cus i live in a small town so barely good spots to skate where there isnt like 60 cars passing through every 5-10 mins. But ever since i just put my music on i can now do an ollie consistently, frontside 180s more consistent but not perfect yet, and occasionally land a few pop shuvits.
sounds good, i'm skating since almost 2 Months now.. doing mostly boardslides and 180's😺 still cant ollie.. boardslides on a funbox so i can jump up on the rail 😂
@@jerrivera4038 lmfao we living the same life 😭😭
Just ordered my first board. I'm currently in a small town college 1700 miles away from home bored with classes and gaming. So I'm hoping I can do this as there are many neat paths throughout the town, It does feel awkward getting into skateboarding at 18. I tried it at 14, busted my hip and recently got the urge to give it another go.
I kinda prefer skating alone because I can just focus on myself but I also like skating with friends because if the skatepark is busy, I get so self conscious like I’m getting in peoples way, and if my friend is there I’m like less embarrassed ig 😂
that's
exactly how i feel
@Moses are other skaters laughing at you?
@Moses then they just dont know how hard it is
@Moses Very well said
@Aloysius Redillas i like falling and slamming just as long as i dont actually get hurt hurt
i have no friends so this is helpful
haha, same:(
Same..
Same
Same
Where are u from let's sk8
I always cruising alone and filming myself like a psychopath. Now I started my own channel filming myself cruising alone.
Thank you for reminding us to just to be ourself.
I want to do the same thing to test my editing skills but i need someone to chase me with a camera 💀
@@marioelburro1492 me too. I'm thinking the same thing. Good luck to you friend 👍
@@marioelburro1492 Just get like a strap that attaches your phone to you, then its like a POV
1. Learn New Tricks: challenge yourself to learn new tricks
2. Film Yourself Skating
3. Consistency: get consistent in you landing your tricks
4. Be Mellow
5. Watch Skate Videos Before You Skate
6. Listen To Music
7. Talk About Tricks With Your Friends
I like skateboarding alone, usually go out really late or early in the morning. Tom Penny; one of the best skaters ever skateboarded alone all the time 🛹
So does Rodney Mullen as far as I'm aware (yeah, replying to a 3 year old comment lol)
You should definitely play music because it makes it seem like your not the only one there and you got someone skating with u
Reppin the music technique
I'm bipolar :/ I enjoy skating alone bc i can go at my own pace but i hate feeling lonely. But i have fun skating with friends and it usually allows me to feel more comfortable doing tricks.
Same bro
I think you got bipolar writing this
First real skate sesh alone ended with me flying face first into a lamppost and busting my nose really bad. Lucky I've got a thick skull. Stay safe out there peeps.
"how ya doin?" "You havin fun skating?" "Me too man" True pain right there
Man this yt channel is so awesome the majority of the stuff is common sense but it’s kinda a wake up call in a sense
I mean if im alone at the skatepark I like it cause I feel more confident and comfortable
Also listening to music while skating by myself is fun because I don't need to care about hearing someone
😂😂 yes 👌🏻
*then there’s me who always rides alone cause I don’t have any friends that ride and I’m too shy to talk to anyone at my local even tho I see them everyday*
Me too! They always pass my house and I'm really shy to talk to them soo
Same, i'm afraid that they will make fun of me :(
Man you clearly miss out on great relationsships, try approaching them by just asking them, whats their favourite music to skate too, or what inspires them on skating. Be proactive, invest in yourself. People and relationships are the greatest asset on earth!
@@Michaelsongsfull40 ok, when it stops raining (this is what it’s like in England 🙄😅) I will go to the skatepark, talk to someone and tell you of it ended up good or bad! 👍
@@zahrah4504 yeah, go for it, don't be afraid! Be lavish in your praise and hearty in your Approbation.
Thanks so much, I'm a lonely skater, kn scooter kids where I am. That's all I see in the uk
Dont forget the 2 skateparks in the entire country and cracked roads
im from uk too. if you live around brighton we can go skate sometimes! i don’t have any friends who skate either so yea :)
ikr lol u skate down my street for five secs and fall from the cracks in the road
@@ema6704 im from nottingham and freaking nobody here skates lol
@@ema6704 thats rlly cool, I've pretty close there, I allways struggled for skate spots
i personally watch the dolores hill bombs before i skate, that gets me hyped up
Same 😭
I skate by myself a lot, mostly because I don’t know anyone else my age that skates.
My top tips are - 1. celebrate your accomplishments, big or small, give yourself credit.
2. When possible watch other local skaters, it’s a good way to learn and progress.
3. Don’t be afraid to go to the skatepark by yourself or if your just starting. Everyone there started at the beginning, no one will make fun of you.
One thing that helps when i skate alone is to think of it like the gym.
For consistency, think reps and doing the same trick over and over for x amount of time or tricks.
then a new trick, pr (personal record) or in this case, a new trick. And like he said a quote on quote "New trick" doesn't have to be a different trick just the same trick on something else (5-0 on a ledge, 5-0 on the bump to flat bar) same as how 280 on the legpress is different than 280 for squating
0:02 not even 5 seconds in and I'm already freaking out from this guy
That chicken at 1:19 really did a BS lipslide 😂😭
Landyachtz cruiser vs longboard is a great cruiser vibe video, 100% recommend
I'm fundamentally someone who prefers to be alone or with a very select group of people.
I find skating alone therapeutic, necessary, but sometimes having just 1 or 2 buddies that really care about your progress and stoking you on, is also so important.
Skating with friends is more fun and you often learn something new because of them. Alone time is for consistency but I always get frustrated when things don't work out.
If you can't nail a trick, practice one you can already do, always end your sesh on a positive note
Luis Mora and the Erased team get me hype to go off and skate. But I will say that where I live has no where to skate at all.
The best skate video ever is “cousin across America with John gardener” by oj wheels
Skating alone actually makes filming a lot easier for me! I look at skating solo as “time to work”, and skating with friends as “time to have some fun”. With that being said it’s all fun. Just different types.
I started to skate two months ago and skate alone. For me it was kinda lonely and frustrating 'till I started to listen to music while skating and watching videos before going out👌👌
I started skateing in the start of the quarantine (i am latino, and here the quarantine steels up) so i have always skated by my own xd
Great vid, really liked the little memes and funny clips you edited in whilst you spoke. I had a solo sesh this morning, going for another one in the afternoon!
SPDS audio visual output.
Fav skate vid
it's easy to give up when by yourself just remember someone with a "learning disability" created most of the tricks you are trying to do
They did?
@@gisagirl yeah Rodney Mullen
Yep
Autism is not a learning disability and that's offensive to people that have family around them I'm not usually sensitive but just letting ya know autistic people are basically the smartest people ever it's just someone who has troubles with social skills, repetitive behaviors, speech and nonverbal communications
@@psuedoartist1902 a learning disability doesn’t mean that you’re stupid bro. it means that you learn differently than people who dont have one. autism is a learning disability. disability isn’t a bad word. cool people can have learning disabilities (adhd is cool) too. i have a learning disability. its not a big deal
When he talked about recommending tricks ima recommend to all of u no comply 180 I got these on lock and now they’re my favorite trick I love them and if u haven’t learned em learn em and if u have learned them get consistent with it
I was just thinking about doing this trick! It’s super scary tho! I’m scared to kill my shins with my board
@@jay_the_great0740 see I'm the small percentage that doesn't care about the shins but a large fear of popping too hard and smacking the ol' go-nads...
Straight no-complys ate hecka fun too
@Moses true when I roll away from a no comply 180 I think of going fakie not switch
For all of u struggling with this trick go a bit faster if u are stationary you’ll hit ur shins don’t focus on popping focus on scooping it and turning ur shoulders
Bro illegal civ Godspeed the greatest skate vid ever
i like skating with friends better but i moved to a different country and dont know how to make new ones so this video helps. thanks!
Kickflips are legendary
i have skated alone all the time and now im here watching this
I always get hyped on Spootyskater’s skate videos
I've been super hyped on Johnny Giger's newest street part. The raw cut is even better
5:14 HOW TF DID HE DO THAT?????? IT IS LITERALLY HIGHER THAN LYON 25 😱
FAKE maybe
It's editing lol
@@jean-sole-partre1099 oh ok lol
im hyped about skate box
im pretty sure youve never heard of the yt channel its pretty good
Wow I'm here early. Love your videos man!
I am getting a new skateboard on Friday :D
How has your skateboard been?
I ussually work on consistency when i skate alone its better to learn new ones around friends for me because we hype eachother up
Dig the video great time after we done. I listens deltaparole it even better.
i find it awkward to be there alone, since I'm a new skater. i also found out i was pushing with the front foot and i was already kinda used to it yet i had skated w it for 2 days and today i started skating w the back foot, my right. i find it so hard and i feel like i just get scared sometimes and run off the board lol. I'm trying to be comfortable on the board but it's just hard. i have no skateparks in my area at all so i just have to skate down small hills on concrete. i also just kinda sometimes fall even if I just started pushing. i need some tips maybe? i know i just have to skate a lot but maybe there's some tips i can use/keep in mind when skating.
the video we needed but didnt know
i really like the “High n’ dry” by thrasher on yt
bitte sich festzuhalten is a dope skate video thats been hyping me up for a while
thanks for helping the skating communitie with ur vids
Needed this because I have no friends. Lmao
I like the “High n’ Dry” video that thrasher made
thanks for making this video
I skate alone most days this was lovely thank you bro
I would def like to have friends to skate with, it would make the dull days a lot more interesting, but man I do have the time of my life most of the times
I think I would fall under the "no friends" category😂😂😂 . Laugh through the pain/ loneliness.
Watching old school skate videos like "Jump off a Building" and "Baker Has a Deathwish" always gets me hyped
I hadn't even thougght about going to sk8, but after watching this, I felt really motivated to do so.
Watching Godspeed gets me hyped
Illegal civ is great bro
The perfect video for me doesn't exi....
i always just work on the new trick thats my level example, just learned kickflips so gonna learn varial flips, i also film myself so i can go back and look at my mistakes, also go watch "every meals a picnic" by george poulos because its an amazing street part
Damn, this channel is good 🔥🔥
Skatebox: "When you skate by yourself, you can just focus on the trick that you are trying to learn."
Peeps with ADHD: "JOKES ON YOU FOOL I CANT FOCUS AT ALL oo a fly"
Just cruise, it's great for ADHD. Skate and explore!
Thanks i feel less lonely. Skating alone is like a brake from the real world
bro ur videos hipe me up before a session
Haha fun learning new tricks (been trying to boardslide forever)
This is the story of my life.
This one is for the viewer: If you ever think that you can't skate alone and you can only improve with friends, and you feel sad because you don't have any friends that skatez just remember that Rodney Mullen learned and created most of his tricks alone.
Skate or Die is one of my fav YTbers
Yo a amazing skate video is good speed
I’ve never skated in my life.what the hell am I doing here
8:38
so close to 100 k subs!!!!!
Either my friends dont skate, or they live far away so i just cruises the same path on my longboard. I do pass skateboarders but theyre always carrying the board since i guess they can handle the hills. I do like getting compliments and stares while passing people tho, honestly a good feeling👌🏽
Suggest good skateboarding movie available on Netflix, UA-cam
@Moses what??
Watch Godspeed and Uncrossed
21 jump street
I just saw this ?? 😂
@@SkateBox
I hate when UA-cam does that they think it’s so funny.(they have done it to some of my vids)
Hyped on the new clip from kellen james
That trampoline trick was insane. 🔥
7:40 the last picture has no brain.don’t do that
CANCEL CANCEL CANCEL HE SAID EVERYBODY COULD SKATE, BUT THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO CAN'T >:((((( blue btw
Love skating alone. So relaxing
When i skate i listen to Write this down by biggie or the remix and i listen to Struggle in the 90s remix. Its so calming and viby
Ya I definitely remember the 3 floor parking structure at the mall here in Abbotsford, B.C. after hours at night was dope
I wish I could go skate but where I live there is COVID cases every day and I would rather wait a long time until I get to skate then dying and not get skate anymore
Also one more tip don’t be scared off gettting becuase that was one of my problems but when I don’t care about getting hurt anymore I progressed way faster
Poetic collective "clouds" is a scrumptious video. Simply and truthfully.
The skate videos im really hyped on is your skate videos
Also vl skate and skate or die on yt
EC II melodi is legit one of the best skate vids ive ever seen
i needed this, i have no friends 😂😂
7:11 me when I try to talk to a girl with no headphones at the skatepark 🥲
Love the ModSun gif at 4:28 😂
Okay my all time fav skate video is Godspeed my davante jolly, I highly recommend
I love watching luis mora vologs its like really hype me up
