#fakie kickflip

If the potential for property discussion during a riot worries you, might I suggest getting rid of the cops so they can’t lynch people with impunity?

Also maybe stop insisting things are better because a democrat is in power in the city/state/federal level? They’re still murdering Black men for driving, it doesn’t feel like a lesser evil to me

So video parts are really just ways to get brand attention because most people can't keep up with it, they relate to the kickflip and the fakie bigspin and the boardslide and rock to fakie and 180 lol

The Berrics is kind of an outlier because of their professional games of skate which every person who skates can relate to, it's classic..

Let's talk skateboarding tonight. Big fucking surprise after my post the other night about how I watch skate or skate related videos pretty much every night... Here's something really fucking cool about how skating should be viewed by all skaters, and what it can bring to literally anyone's life.

In re-learning how to skate, I find something very unique has happened. I have had to reset my bar for accomplishment lower than it's been in well over 10 years. You see, skating is entirely about personal accomplishment. From day one, you start setting goals.

1. Balance on the damn thing.

2. Balance on the damn thing while it's moving.

3. Ride from here to there without bailing or falling.

4. Ride a bit further.

Then, once you start getting comfortable riding, you can add in another dimension:

5. Try going down that hill.

6. Try going down that hill FAST.

7. Try rolling into that bank.

8. Try dropping into that quarterpipe.

You're still improving riding, but your adding more depth, more complexity to your language of riding. You "unlock" new places to skate, otherwise avoided because it was scary or risky or too hard. Your world expands. Then you start adding more dimension:

9. Try manualing.

10. Try going up a quarterpipe and rolling back fakie.

11. Try going up a bank, pivoting, and going back down regular.

Even more terrain unlocked. And manuals allow you to essentially do harder versions of what you already developed while riding, AND help a ton to learn pivots. Then you add even more:

12. Try Rock to fakie on a quarter.

13. Try stalls on curbs and ledges.

And the big game changer...

14. Learn to Ollie.

Yep, that one's a big accomplishment - from there you can ollie off of things, you can ollie over things, you can ollie up things. What used to be obstacles blocking your path (like the big hills and steep banks used to be), are now opportunities for tricks, *Achievements* in Xbox language. But look back at how much of a crazy journey full of huge accomplishments and improvement it has been even before the first ollie. Fucking nuts, and so overlooked.

My bar used to be set with my goal tricks being the likes of Boneless 360 and Nollie 3 Shuv to Nosestall on ledges. Now, I'm happy if I land a Boneless 180 and ride away clean. But it's hard to really embrace it the same way. I vividly remember landing dozens, hundreds of that exact trick like 10 years ago. It's hard to let myself get pumped about an accomplishment I've already made tons of times, it just doesn't really hit the same. It doesn't feel like an accomplishment. That's what I'm trying to break free of.

I'm frustrated with it because I'm much more confident on my snowskate and bridged back into skateboarding via snowskating. In one season, I went from trying to remember how to do proper moving pop shuvits and ride comfortably to doing bigspin boardslides, kickflip, heelflip and varial flip. I sank every day of that snow season into skating and holy fuck did it pay off. But my skateboarding just doesn't get the same level of time commitment. "I can only do it at the park," says my inner saboteur, "snowskating I can do anywhere." But really, she just doesn't want me to embarrass myself in front of people half my age and doesn't want to admit it out loud. So stupid.

What I need to keep reminding myself is that me even going to the skatepark at all after 10 years of not skating is way bigger now than that Boneless 360 was when I skated every day between and after classes in college. THAT is the gift of skating. That way of looking at life as accomplishments, looking at everyday obstacles as potential achievements. Being incredibly depressed and challenging yourself to get out of bed, make coffee and do something nice for yourself - that should be treated like your first time dropping into a quarterpipe.

So if this doesn't resonate with anyone else yet, this is a note to self. Next time you think your achievement is mundane and silly and not that big of a thing, whatever... think about when you're at a skatepark and you see a kid trying over and over to roll down a bank, bailing and bailing, over and over. Then he gets serious, he gets pumped, he gets confident, and he goes for it. And he eats shit. But he gets up, someone grabs his board for him. They encourage him, say "dude you were so close, just lean forward a bit more". He looks determined, he climbs back to the top. He stares it down, lines up his board, drops in and rolls away. You get so excited for that kid, what a fuckin feeling he's having right now! Anyone who was watching is so stoked for him. Even if they could roll down that bank with a blindfold on. They remember what it was like.

So I guess the lesson is... don't hold yourself by other peoples' standards. Your accomplishments are relative to your narrative and your goals, not those of others. If your goal is to learn to stand on a board or to learn how to tre flip a 5 set, those are just different pages of the same book. They are not "better" or "worse", just different levels of developed complexity that are a product of cumulative experience and choice. What IS good - trying, failing, trying again. What IS bad - giving up, avoiding.

Don't let the fear of failure (and subsequent embarrassment, shame, weakness) prevent you from ever engaging something you're excited to try. Failure is temporary, and gives mountains of information to learn from - XP points. Never trying is eternal.

[readberserk]

my heelflips are doing pretty good and I pulled out my first ever kickflip (since I landed 1 extremely mob at the age of 16) during a game of skate with some far more advance friends and then got knocked out on a fucking fakie bs popshuivit (literally easier than an ollie)
