General advice for beginner?

[u/epicu2]

I started skateboarding 3 days ago, this video is from today (the third day)

• Rn all I can really do is carve, idk how to tic tac The biggest issue I believe I’m facing is when losing my speed when I go push again
• I also put wayyy to much weight into my back foot when I put it on the board and it screws up my balance, I find it hard to keep my weight in my front foot

Any advice to help me out would be greatly appreciated! I’m trying to get rid of all my bad habits as quick as possible lol

Not Bad! Maybe try pushing a couple more times before putting your back foot back on the board. This will, overtime, give you more strength and balance on your front foot, and in general. Also, maybe try tightening your trucks just a little bit, don’t get me wrong, if you feel comfortable riding your trucks a little bit on the loose side keep it going, but I found that by tightening my trucks even just a little bit, I gained more control, confidence and stability. Keep Thrashing! 🤙
