What transition trick tips would you like to see next?

"The ultimate bummer is landing back on your board when you're bailing."

All these parks are just so amazing. I could only imagine having access to places like these

hey Zack, i am really loveing your return to transition. thank you very very much. honestly if i can give a suggestion. don't be afraid to target your video's to an older crowd. i think you'll find there are a lot of us. who will definitely back you.

Thanks for breaking down the roll-in so simply. It’s my next objective. 🙌🏼🛹🤙🏻

Learned how to drop in for the first time Friday at this park!

Thanks for the tips man

Just stumbled across your channel, nice editing and top tips too :)

One of my favorite parks !

Now for the 5-0 To roll in!

Finally learned roll-ins this last week. Noping first, then pool, then finally metal coping. Been 6 months of thinking about it and it ended up being relatively easy. The tips in this video helped relax my mind before I went!

I love your videos! These are much needed!

A BS feeble grind would be a good tip trick. I'd like to do them in the bowl on pool coping. It seems to be a safer trick than a smith grind as you are within the transition more. Hello from New Zealand, thank you for the great content!

Loved this one. Especially all the focus on transition lately. Super helpful!

was always a street skater, and had fear of quarter pipes and bowls. recently found love for transition skating after doing my first frontside kick turn since all I did was backside kick turns. Thank YOU for these transition videos

Thanks 🙏

Thanks so much for the video man, can’t tell you how sick it is you made a roll-in video.

Helpful af dude ! Thank you for taking the time to make this :)

Great instruction, Zach! I lived at Pt. Loma tennis club, when this was built. OB & Sunset Cliffs are perfect chill-out spots.

Thank you so much :D

Super useful

I like watching these cuz it reminds me how im doing these tricks so that i can add style to them.

Very helpful and informative video

Been working on Five O for over 4 months now. Making only very slow progress. I managed only twice to do it right. There is so much to it. The speed, the entry angle, putting all weight on the back foot, the proper lock-in of the heel-wheel, the amount of hanging into the transition, the amount of shoulder turning from start to end. I find this so much more difficult than slash-grinds. Actually, by trying to master Five-O's, i am now much more "radical" on the slash grinds. I dare to make the slash over a wider carve, and sort of manual it. I will not rest until i have the Five-O, no matter how long it takes. Your tip to conceptualize the grind is very appealing. I am going to try that on my next session. Thanx a lot for this how-to, very well explained!

Good information

Great tips for a new skater who's over 40. Any tips on popping up on to the deck out of a quarter? I can't seem to figure out weight distribution between front and back foot and get stuck basically, I know the speed is there, just can't wrap my head around it.

Great tips and a slightly different perspective than Caruso and Degros. Seems more possible to do it the way you have described. Of course i may feel differently next time i go to actually try it lol. Such a beautiful trick though with a surf aesthetic

Thanks. I'll work up to the roll in. I also want to know about disasters. But I think you actually have a video on that with the portable quarter pipe.

I need to work on my transition.

Great video, thanks. Can you make one of how to whip into it and bail…

i learnt slash grinds first. Weight distribution and going more heel heavy was key for unlocking it for me. But frontside 5-0 i find more tricky.... hope to get it soon.

This has always been on the back of my mind. Just can never work myself up for some reason.

great advice as usual. I still cannot get those FS grinds on transition. very scary to commit to them.

I never try to drag my heel on frontside grinds anymore, but it still happens all the time lol

Man, I miss OB!!!

@zach dowdy what microphone do you use? I want to start vlogging!

Good work Zack Maybe next video you could hit more on that balance/angle it takes to ride out your grinds on transition. I'm slashing and can't hold them out man

Being a street skater at heart I didn’t go down a ramp until I was like 2 years into my skating I cannot even rock to fakie but I can kick flip a stair set haha

What size deck, truck and wheels are you riding here? That’s a comfy looking deck. Preference?

👍

I love your channel. Super encouraging can you show so many ways to get into the tricks.

Hola soy de Argentina. Tengo 40 años y empecé a patinar con mis hijos de 10 años. Me arme la tabla y la iento muy pesada. Es una tabla 8.25 y yo peso 85 Kg y mido 1.70mts. que me recomiendas?

"How to get better at Skateboaroding". Move to California. Or Large city with these parks that are works of art. At 1:26, what that manouver called? Just started to learn how to learn to " skate". My interest is the ramps and how to get air. ( even though i have never landed a trick or gotten air). Please help

what do you call this park? i thought it was robb field.

i want to roll in on pool coping maybe a 5-0 to roll in

At around the 5 min mark you talk about rolling in with speed. I really relate to that. I’ve been rolling in to a certain spot for a few weeks without issue, but I’m usually already going pretty fast. Yesterday I stopped to chit chat with some guys near the ledge and when I took off to continue my run I totally slipped backwards and sprained my wrist pretty bad. Not having that speed slowed everything down and interrupted my confidence.

Anyone know where he got that tee shirt from????

If a ramp has no coping, do I need to do the same technique as if there was coping? Or can I just kinda go in

I’m just gonna stick to street skating every time I try to drop in I twist my leg/ or knee and have to take a week or 2 off :(

All the decent outdoor skateparks in the UK would fit in that one park!!.

What helped me was jumping off from the top of the ramp after you get on the coping then just build up the confidence to go for it. It helps so much with getting used to the motions.
