What's good fellow newschoolers, so summers coming up and I decided I wanna start skateboarding and hopefully get really good at it over time, At the moment I'm having trouble landing my pop shuvit and have only landed it all of 5 times. So I decided to go back to the Ollie and perfect it since its pretty shitty right now. So I wanted to get some advice from all the skaters in NS and figure out if I should keep Ollieing or keep goin for that pop shuvit or maybe try something completely different? I've also only been skating for about 3-4 days.

The only way to get good is to ski as much as you can and forget about it. But on serious note just skate everyday until your really comfortable.

Considering its been 80+ here and barely any snow to ski on I'm pretty sure it's not ski site.

Uhh... what.

Skateboarding is muscle memory, just keep on trying there isn't any magic methods. Also, this guy is weird but he helps a lot.

Just keep at it. Like many things it just takes time and practice, lots of both. go to the skatepark, skate flat.

Play games of skate with other kids, thats like a great way to try and learn other tricks
