Chapter 8: Strategies for Skateboarding Faster

Synopsis

When a person uses the right techniques in the correct location they can reach some truly remarkable speeds on a skateboard. One important thing to remember is that if you are trying to use a skateboard for the means of going fast, it is probably a better idea to go for something like a long board instead of a classic or street board.

Long boards can be a bit more expensive but you will notice how much faster you can go on them. It can be a bit tricky to master the skill of turning corners at fast speeds, but with enough practice you will be able to do it in no time at all.

The following chapter will go over the basics of skating faster and will provide you with some tips to help you improve your technique.

Go Faster!

There are some very simple methods you can adopt when trying to put more speed into your skating experience. Some of these would require some physical execution while other would be more to do with the mind.

The following are some tips on how to create more speed for your skate boarding experience:

Perhaps skate boarding with people who are more competent in the sport would help the individual to be inspired to push the boundaries and aim for faster speeds. By observing these more advanced skaters, the individual will be able to gain valuable insight on how to create the elevated speeds desired.

Choosing to skate outside the individual’s comfort zone is also another way to push for higher standards and faster speeds. By practicing more and incorporating all the tips learned and observed, the skater will be able to fine tune their skating skills until the desired skills are achieved. Having sound knowledge of all the ways to better the skating techniques will also help in the quest to achieve higher goals.

Bending the knees is also another tip that can be used to create faster speeds on the skate boards as this helps to elongate the stride more effectively. The bent knees will allow the skater to reach out and push much faster during the skating stride.

In order to keep the speeds consistent, the skater would be advised to bring the feet back closer to the middle once the launch into the skating motion is executed. This will not only help to prolong the ride but will also allow1’ for the speeds to be picked up.

Arm movements are also pivotal to the speed increasing strategy. Swinging the arms about too much will cause unnecessary friction that will eventually cause the slower speeds, thus the individual should try to maintain a more aerodynamic position.

Chapter 9: Jumping Tactics for Skateboarding

If you want the ultimate thrill out of your skateboarding experience, jumps are the way to go. It is very important that you are comfortable with your skill level before trying any big jumps though. You can really get an amazing thrill from flying through the air. Most people who have experienced this thrill compare it to what a bird must feel like. For that split second that you are in the air, you feel truly free.

Always wear appropriate safety equipment when attempting to do jumps with your skateboard. Doing jumps and tricks with your board can be a great way of having fun and can be moderately safe as long as responsible safety precautions are taken.

The following chapter will go over some tactics that you may want to try and implement into your technique to better your skill with skateboard jumps.

Improve Your Jumping

Learning how to jump while still managing to stay with the skateboard is something that can be learned with practice and is usually a very common move to master. With some practice and know how, any skater should be able to manage this without much difficulty.

The following are some tactics that should be tried to perfect your jumping motion while skateboarding:

Standing on the skateboard with the back foot just slightly over the edge of the board and the front foot around the middle will help to prepare the skateboarder for the actual jump sequence. The balance created by this particular stance will help to keep the skateboard closer to the individual during the jump.

Bending the knees and pressing the tail end of the board down to the ground with the back foot is also recommended as a good strategy to start the jump and finish it without actually losing complete contact with the skateboard. In quick succession, push the front foot towards the nose end of the board. As the front foot slides up to the front of the board, there should be some added pressure to push the board towards the ground.

Most of these steps if followed well, will allow the board to be as close to the skater at all times and this is necessary to ensure successful skateboarding moves. The motions are designed to simulate the skate board practically sticking to the feet of the skater throughout the continuous skating movements. Wearing protective gears is also strictly encouraged as it will help to cushion any impact resulting from a fall or the loss of balance and coordination by minimizing injury possibilities. Jumping tactics are usually noted for the thrills and excitement they bring out in the skateboarding sport.
