10 Easiest Skateboarding Tricks | With Videos

February 22, 2019

Yo! Here are (in my opinion) 10 of the easiest/neccessery skateboard tricks. Now, these definitely won't be "easy", these are banger tricks that will really help you progress. The more time you spend the better you will get, I like to focus on one that I see potential with. There is a video example with every trick. Check it out:

1. Ollie

How-To: Snap the tail with your back foot, slide the front foot up to level the board mid-air. It's all about timing and popping it just right.
Landing: Bend your knees as you come down. Stay centered over the board.

2. Frontside 180

How-To: Like an ollie, but turn your shoulders and hips frontside as you leap. The board follows your body.
Landing: Stay loose and absorb the landing with your knees.
