my goal is tbh learn both street skateboarding and freestyle skateboarding... i have started my journy with street skateboarding and i am still a beginner so i will learn from each one of these like 50 tricks from street sb and 50 tricks from freestyle cuz they look both sick especially when combining both of them :)

This is the equivalent of flourishing a deck of cards, beautiful when done right, ugly when done wrong

Mike, I learned my first skateboard trick thanks to you! I've been skating for two months, just bombing hills (I've been BMXing for over 30 years) figured things would just develop naturally out of going as fast as I can; it's my bike philosophy. Anyway, I was waiting for some pedestrians to move and your video was what I watched before I went out so I tried some stuff and landed a finger flip after ten or so goes! I can't even ollie yet dude! I'm so stoked it's hilarious; even more stoked than when I do a huge bike gap at 25mph; it's the achievement of what feels near impossible that matters to me, not how big it looks to others. I took skating up to inspire my daughter cos my BMXing scares her and it's totally worked; she loves to scoot now, loves watching your videos. So yeah, I'm so stoked can you tell?! Love your vibes, found you thru Braille. Dope that you sponsor Yuta too, that dude is so sick; he represents the best attitudes and you support that, so dope. Much love from Killingworth UK.

dude I love your vids the cinematography was just beautiful. John Hill sent me.

I love how you share with us your fail moments. This is what real skateboarding is.

I'm 37, going to give skateboarding another go. I used to skate when I was a kid, never been very good at all but... never totally lost interest and always enjoyed watching skate videos. Probably going for freestyle as I'm a coward and don't want to break a leg LOL. Anyway, thanks for your video, as soon as my new "old beginner" skate is here, I'll start practicing. Yeah, I'm probably gonna die LOL. Thanks for your video, very informative and helpful!

Damn, landing a trick smoothly is so gratifying. And you know it's smooth coz you barely even feel it.

Right now my mom doesn't understand the three main types of skating so when I told her I wanted your pro model she went and bought a double kick at our local shop. I'm not mad I'm thankful but like you said it is WAY harder to do pogos and other truckstand variations

essential video right here! very nicely crafted.

Thank you for this tutorial! 👍🙏👌I'm thinking about getting into freestyle skateboarding and for sure I will try these tricks out!

Great video, I'll definitely re-watch this when there won't be any snow left in the streets!

Very informative tip's man, I'll be making the transition from street to freestyle..I dig the style keep up the good vids.

I absolutely love your style of video! Great content! I'm 29 and just tatting to skate! These vids are super motivating! Thank youuuuuu!

Very nice vid! Love the vibe ❤

I love this video. I learned more about freestyle from this video than any other video. Love how he teaches the first fundamentals, I really love the song and the lazy Sunday morning feel. This vid has so much vibes

Just getting back into skating and always loved freestyle. Thanks so much for all the tips!

This w s a really great edit. Doing it on a popsicle deck was a great idea.

00:48 Rail Stand 02:06 Tailstop Stationary Finger Flip 03:11 Oldschool Kickflip 04:11 Walk the Dog 05:25 Pogo

Great video also thanks for putting the music credits in there. The song(s) got stuck in my head watching and rewatching

Your tutorials are really well explained! A natural teacher

Great channel you got, man! Nice content and great editing! Hope you get more viewers soon

just started skateboarding at 31. did my first push sessions and learned to roll. when im too exhausted i start to try what flashes me, the flatground freestyle tricks. yesterday i stood my first railstand to casper and into riding stance, i nearly began to cry.

Excellent video. The quality is top notch! Keep it up! Came from John Hill. Subbed.

I was doing alot of these back in high school 15+ years ago cause rodney and daewon were my favorite . Truck stands were one of my faves to do specially without hands. Might need to pull my deck out clean and re lube my old bones swiss bearings

today i landed the first trick on the list, i have been skating for a month and i am really happy! i am 40 and just starting on skateboard , really cool activity to do on quarantine, you can go to any empty street and practice, my goal now is to clear this list of tricks and move on to more stuff, thanks for the vid!!

I've been trying to learn street skating for ages and felt like I was making very little progress (I still struggle with moving ollies). Exploring the world of freestyle has opened up so many things i can do to get that sense of achievement and have fun skating, rather than the constant feeling of failure, I'm really enjoying finding my style I landed my first (non sketchy looking) boneless today and it felt awesome!

Great video -thanks for using a double-kick too!

Jesus Christ ur choice of music is so beautiful. I never expected to hear one of my favourite tunes on a skate video lol

You and Connor are both awesome skaters! keep it up mike:D

Amazing concept and editing!!

i'm from last john hill video , you have a new subscriber , soooooo stoked for next video , keep up your awesome work ! love ya already

I'm stealing the bottle caps for bushing cups idea. That freakin gnarly!

I think i will never understand how to do a walk the dog. i would really love learning it tho but hey! I just subbed by the way, I first discovered you with Braille. Keep making more videos freestyle is absolutely sick :)

Amazing - I'm going to have to try these!

Thanks a lot Mike for your uploads! Thinking about getting myself your Mode model for my first actual freestyle skateboard, because I'm looking to convert (riding a normal 8.0 currently).

Dude!! I thought I was the only other person who liked Loving! Thats awesome.

awesome! I'm gonna practice all these tricks

Good to know man thanx.. Some of these movements would be a great help for vert !!!$😯😲😀

Your city is beautiful!!!

I will go and try this today man thanks for teaching how to do this 🤘🏻🤘🏻

This is one of the best skateboard tutorial videos I've ever watched.

This is awesome im new at skateboarding but im totally getting into this stuff! thx for great video im gonna try these out on my backyard now lol

Great vid, thank you for going into detail 🙏🏾😌😃

I’m in quarantine rn and this was the best video to help me stay busy thank you very much mike

Thanks~ Bro! I’m 37 years old, Korean. Just starting freestyle...

New fan here i love ur videos so much and ur music taste

Haha I thought you seemed familiar. Then I just realized I skated with you once on some tennis courts near Heartland in Normal. This is awesome that you're on KZfaq!

Rail stand, tail stop finger flip, old skool kick flip, walk the dogg, pogo. Go learn em !!! U got this!!!

i'm getting a freestyle board bc I wanna learn how too skate just like Mike man! he's a legend and inspires me !

Dude, I love you (and freestyle skateboarding^^). Music is lit, video quality is good and you are awesome! Keep it up :) Coming from John Hill btw

Got real comfortable and now I can do what can only be described as a finger dolphin flip to rail

thanks, and great music!

What is a machete? Thanks for these videos they really sucked me into freestyle skateboarding! Greetings from Sweden Stockholm

great video! keep adding 5 tricks at a time!!

I just hopped over here from John Hill's vid with you and I think I might want to get myself a board. I used to longboard before I started having back problems, but those aren't going away, so I don't see why I shouldn't just try. I'll try to get one with those plastic things on the nose and or tail just for longevity

Dude, came from radrat, love your channel, subbed

Dude, do you realise how beautiful your eyelashes are?

These were awesome! Could you maybe demonstrate a few intermediate and advanced freestyle tricks, in the future?

So question I skate street and freestyle and I ride a street board with loose trucks so going to primo/rail feels weird because of all the give in the trucks so should I tighten then or no

finally someone I can relate to my legs and chest are covered in tattoos and have none on my arms. your knee cap looks bad ass cant wait to get my other one over with.

Video helped out a lot thanks Mike👍

Thanks dudee trying this tomorrow

My trucks are like 7.6 axle and my board is an 8.1 so I can’t do primos 😔.

I know this video is ancient by internet standards, tho still as excellent as if it were made yesterday (!) I feel spoiled coming from the days when you were lucky if you knew somebody who could teach you, or had a VHS tape. Our skating involved a lot of (more often than not unsuccessful) guess work, lol. But, question... were those actual bottle caps being used as washers for the bushings?

Hey man thanks for the video. I want to get back into to freestyle, I used to just do tricks like these on a street board. Do you have any suggestions on a best of both worlds board setup, like a hybrid board that pogos would be easy on, but that wasn’t a full on freestyle board? Maybe more squared off street board with skid plates? Also, what’s the difference between freestyle wheels and street wheels, just size? Thanks so much

Nice 😃 I need to learn to do that

1st one you can move the board to the right if you are regular foot.

Me suscribo, I like freestyle dude ,I´ll try to learn some of those triks

Love the video I've been practicing fingerflips. Any tips for keeping the board straight? When ever I flip it the board turns almost 90 degrees

I've been learning on the whale tail. Is it normal to do walk the dogs on a single kick board like the WT? Thanks for your videos. So helpful and awesome!

Tried to do pogos on a borrowed board and it was so badly razor tailed that it's stuck into my floor boards on my porch.... I need to get my own board and start playing around before I'm too old, I'm already almost at the top of the hill so hopefully I can do it soon. LoL

I can't wait to try this once the snow melts. I'm 24 and I'm just getting back into skating, and since I can't go down things anymore, this is perfect for me. Hopefully I can film it and see if I can move all 6ft. 250lbs of me.

He cleaned my screen with that shuv it, it was so clean

I snapped my bored today

yo venice beach boy nice man good vid

yo dude for when you said for the rail stand you push it out to the left and your right foot is over the back wheel is it inversed for goofy skaters?

Hi Mike. I didn't realise how many tats you have! Sick man, you got me into freestyle. As well as Andy. You should finish your knee piece. Needs some colour.

is it possible to do any of this on a mini cruiser shape a la the bustin bonsai? i have a deck i haven't set up yet and i hope to start messing around with a smidge of freestyle. but if you say nah i will prolly reconsider.

this is awesome! thank you ❤️

Can you tell me what are the wheels on this set up? I like the shape!

youre shooting style is similar with Brett Novak :) nice tutorial bro, God bless!

@ 5:54 is that a beer glass cap on your bushings?

2019 still a nice video

Are these bushing cups bottle caps with holes drilled into them?

great channel!

Quick question. Why is there a bottle cap on your bottom spacer?

Hey Mike, what's up? Any chance you might do a trick tip on truckstands? And by the way, I would apreciate a lot if you could name the song in this video. I love your content, you're one of my biggest inspirations to skate freestyle!

great !!

I’m just gonna learn these when I get stuck. I almost have heelflips 😁

What do we do if our boards are new , the tail is curved, and we can't afford those things you put on the nose/tail?

do you have a bottle cap as your bottom washer?

awesome 😁👏

Hey Mike how come you do the old school kickflip into switch stance do i have too do it like that or can I use my other foot and land normal ? i'm goofy

Haha, I've been trying freestyle skateboarding. Its hard for me because I have a normal board. like I do normal tricks like kick flips and heel flips. well I've been trying to get better at freestyle because its awesome and unique.

My legs are scared of the Fingerflip, it always either the back foot goes very far back where it wont land on the board or, the front foot gets off. If I commit, both my feet will make it but, I might throw the board to the front which happened 3 times. Ill just practice riding first xD

I've been trying most of these excluding pogo.i honestly think switch blades are easier than some of these. also manuals. I can't manual almost at all but I think it's more fundamental to all skate types than people really say. spacewalks and all types of tricks require good manual control. I think it's something that should be included in a first list. cool video though.

This guys tutorials are good, and I'm in class watching this video 😂 😂, I got to go my teacher is coming toward me 😨😨

Great video Mike ! I'll try to learn these 5 tricks ! What is a name of the song please ? (always good music in your videos.) Thanks ! :)

Sick board.

Next trick challenge, renegade sidewinder. Also how's the fingerboard working?
