Beginners guide to SkateboardingSo you've got your first skateboard, but what do you do now? To start you'll need some good, hardwearing skate shoes to get on the board... You can also wear protection for your head and elbows, you may feel more comfortable and confident wearing protection. As you begin to skate more, you will feel safe without any protection. Start with balance, and then work forward to you moving on the board. Find out how which foot you use to push yourself, either your right or left foot. As you get more confident you make want to skate at skate parks and on ramps, learn tricks etc. You can learn these from skateboarding friends that may be at your school/college or you may meet them at the skate park itself. At skateparks ![]() If you’ve borrowed a board and you enjoy skateboarding you may want to buy one after a few weeks of skating. By then you’ll know whether you enjoy it or whether its not for you. Most importantly skateboarding is about having a laugh. Here's one of my favourite videos of skateboard tricks for inspiration :) Source: Free Articles from ArticlesFactory.com
