November 7th, 2007

You probably already know all the basics when it comes to skateboarding, such as standing on the board without falling off. Now comes the fun part, learning some sweet skateboard trick tips. Before you get going on the advanced tricks, you need to build a foundation by learning some easier tricks first. Here is one great skateboard trick tip for a beginning skater.

Is your goal to skateboard as well as the pros? Lets make sure you meet that goal.

The Indy Grab:

The Indy Grab is one of the most popular and basic skateboard tricks. This is where you see skaters catching air, bending down and grabbing their board. It looks really good and it is the first skateboard trick tips you should master before moving on.

However, before you can fully take on the Indy Grab, you first need to Ollie. You cannot do an Indy Grab until you got the Ollie down. When you get on the board, place your front foot on the middle and your back foot at the back tail.

You will slam down on the board and with your back foot and jump at the same time. Make sure to keep the board even by staying centered. This is the basic steps of the Ollie. Once you have this down, you will reach down while you’re in the air and hold onto the board between your feet.

Right before you land, let go. Make sure to bend your knees the whole time so you don’t injure them when you land. You can do this trick on a ramp, as you’re coming off the flat edge, or you can do it on flat ground. One of the best skateboard trick tips is to try and get as high as you can. That way you will get plenty of time to get that Indy Grab done right.
