Discussing Skateboarding with Neuroscientist Andrew Huberman
Рет қаралды 134,462
3 жыл бұрынAndrew Huberman is a neuroscientist and tenured professor at Stanford that grew up skating San Francisco's Embarcadero. Andrew’s research touches on fear responses, as well as sleep and dream states and how they relate to learning. We called him up to share some groundbreaking findings that we and professional skateboarder Karl Watson felt other skaters could greatly benefit from.

This is seriously the best thing I have seen in a while. I’ve tried to explain this to people and family. Skating directly translates in life. It makes you accepting, humble, and being ok with failing. It’s selfish and including at the same time. It’s pain and happiness. It’s life. I could go on forever. This is awesome. Jenkem, Ian, Karl you rule. Thank you.

I'm glad Karl asked that about (essentially) "getting dopamine from telling people you're GOING to do something". I actually read something about that exact idea, awhile back... and now I swear by it. I won't call tricks, or tell people my ideas with certain things ahead of time, things I'm doing/working on etc. Pretty crazy how the brain works. Plus, chicks dig it when you're mysterious. P.S. - Jerry Hsu's falls are always so gnarly and dramatic.

Not trolling. Just contributing to the conversation. Talking about something may be one step to make something a reality. I think the recent idea has been referred to as "to manifest your reality" by talking about it. Not sure how close language is to mental imagery (as far the brain connections go), but isn't there a study about athletes imagining better performance without practice and actually getting better? So maybe talking about doing something is a way of imagining it? In any case, there have been a lot times when I've said I'm gonna do something, and then I do it (of course, there's a lot times when I haven't). In any case, there's a fine line between hyping up something and then never doing it, or worse, not trying to, and actually making an effort (while talking about) to do it.

@ombligodeagua 3 жыл бұрын
Something that is really interesting is the way the visual cortex creates a virtual map of space and obstacles, that's why when you are skating a park or a spot you already skated before, it feels alot smoother and conftier and you can even do tricks without looking at your feet or the obstacle. It is kinda like walking around your house without the lights on repetitively. Also another thing i find beautiful is reflex motor action (which is said mostly triggered by visual stimuli from the the periphery and not the center of the visual field) skipping or going around little kids in the park or getting of your board when encountering another skater is kinda like brothering the bandwith of visual awareness.

"Skateboarding taught me that you keep trying something over and over again, that's critical for science, science is hard, you fail most of the time and then you finally break through and discover something and it really holds up or you publish that paper, it feels amazing - so much better because of that huge stack of failures you have leading up to it. The other part is community and camaraderie. To this day I have great friends, skateboarding was about being that huge pack, also people push you; when you have a community and you hear about or see people doing something amazing, it pushes you and you use that as fuel to realise what's possible. Skateboarding is an amazing template for life." - Andrew Huberman

Thank you for that whole explanation. As a skater of over 25 years and epilepsy all my life, the neurological education and monitoring I’ve gone through has been intense and amazing. Even after a second brain surgery at age 25 and working with specialists the brain stimulation of skateboarding was never really put to play in analyzing my issues or aiding them. Thank you for being in the nuero and skate world to share all that info!

Ok, I guess I'm gonna start skateboarding again. Coincidentally my 5 year old came up to me earlier today and I said I should skate more. Skated hard from age 12-25 and now that I'm mid 30s I still have a few tricks up my sleeve and for the sake of my health I'll have to brew up a few more.

Where you spent so much Time and Effort working on the Trick, that by the Time you land it you're just glad it's over. Great conversations to have about Mental Well-being and pre-empting the "Darkness" that can sneak in.

Mad Props to Andrew and Karl on this video! Growing up skateboarding in the 90's, I never got the respect or validation from the outside community though I was every bit as much of an athlete as the football players at my high school. Skateboarding taught me nothing comes easy in life and I have to have perseverance, dedication, and creativity to accomplish my goals. The information that Andrew is sharing is super valuable even now. I still struggle with fear. Fear of talking to a really pretty girl, fear of standing up for myself in the workplace, doubting my abilities, fear of starting a new career, etc. But when I really get in a bind, I think back to my time skateboarding, staring down that 8 stair set that I want to kickflip, knowing that its the 23rd attempt and my elbows are bleeding and my ass and hands hurt cuz the pavement was shit, and I build that mental state of SEND IT and apply that to the situation. I really want to start trying EMDR because at 38 years old I now super deep into mountain biking, sending big drops and gaps that are SCARY! So if EMDR can work there, it can work anywhere! And always, much gratitude to everyone here!
