Riding, a few hours. Riding confidently at a fair speed, a few days. Being able to drag a foot to stop and being able to get a walking/running start instead of putting the board down and starting from a standstill, a few weeks. Show As for your concerns about skating in private/public, I (and just about every other skater out there) have eaten it more than a few times skating down the sidewalk or in a public parking lot. It's really not that different from stalling the car when learning to drive stick or dropping the bike at a light when learning to ride a motorcycle. It's a little embarrassing, but every does it when they start, and it's just a part of learning. I just turned 30 and decided I was going to start skateboarding for the first time in my life (aside from the $20 Nightmare Nash deck that I had when I was 7). I've been watching some youtubes and trying to hit the pavement for an hour or so every night if the weather is good. I don't have high expectations; like, i don't ever expect to be doing 10 stair gaps, or boardsliding down handrails, but I'd really like to learn a few of the basics and get pretty good at them. I'm getting OK at ollies but don't have very much height on them yet and still not consistent at speed, but I feel like I'm getting a little bit better every time I go. How long did it take you to get really good at ollies? What was the next trick you learned after that? What sort of progress do you think would be reasonable? keeping in mind that I don't know anyone my age who skateboards and I don't have a crew to ride with. This might not be for everyone, but I like to have numbers to show progression. It keeps me motivated that way. I relearned how to kickflip after many, many years of not skating. I want to be able to consistently land them so what I do is:
I only skate once or twice a week for about 1.5 - 3 hours at a time. I can see my kickflips becoming more consistent. (Week 1 = 16/60 week 5 = 28/60) I can also see if I take two weeks off, I become a little less consistent but overall, the trajectory is positive and it inspires me. Maybe this might work for you? Ok so a week and a half ago I was hanging out with a friend who use to skate a LOT and is getting back into it. He ask if I wanted to go to the park with him so I was like "sure" and he showed me the basics and let me use his board. A few days ago I got my own skateboard (cas Ive been chomping at the bits to get back on one) and after tightening the trucks (not "tight" I bought a complete board and they were COMPLETELY loose). Ive been skating today on my driveway,its a long downhill driveway, but its full of gravel and twigs, to many to sweep up. ( its a little longer than this, but WAY more downhill. Just setting the board down and coasting gets me faster than riding down the ramp at the park did). So I was wondering how long it would take before i have a decent balance on the board? I want to go to the park but at the same time don't want to go by myself when I'm still occasionally falling off trying to push myself. My second question is basically at what comfort level on the board should I be to learn to ollie. For some stupid reason I decided I would try today (even though I can hardly balance on the board) and the second attempt ended in the board flying out from under me and me hitting the ground hard, twisting my ankle( not bad, I'll probably start skating again in a few hours). I know falling is part of skating, but It made me realize I REALLY wasn't ready to try that. I started at 11 y/o (I'm 17 now). Here's me after a year (5 year old video). There's some r/cringe material at the start that I skipped in that link haha. But yeah, everyone is different, but it's about having fun at the end of the day. I have friends who could just about kickflip after a year and a half, and then there's my brother (2 and 1/2 years younger then me) who could tré after about a year and had serious style. We all enjoy skateboarding just the same, no matter our ability level. I was ill so didn't skate at all from about the age 13 - 17, and I just started back again this week. I've lost about 1/2 of my bag o' tricks to time, but I'll get 'em back. Man does it feel good to be back skating! Stick at it no matter what, bro! One final thing I'd say is find a friend who you can skate with. Unconsciously, or inadvertantly, you will push each other and try to be better than one another at certain things. It will be friendly competition and you'll both get better, faster (if that's what you're worried about). Whatever happens, enjoy your skating, and have fun out there! Now go tear that shit up... How long does it take the average person to learn to skateboard?Typically it takes at least 12 months to 3 years to become good at skateboarding. In 12 months you'll be able to learn a few basic tricks. Between 1 and 3 years you can learn advanced tricks. The progression timeline varies from person to person.
Is 24 too old to learn to skateboard?Whether you're someone who always wanted to learn to skate or someone who fell away from it, it's never too late to pick it up. Even if you're an adult, with a job, a mortgage, children, and other responsibilities. The fun of skateboarding transcends ages.
Is 27 too old to start skateboarding?You're never too old to learn skateboarding, at least when you're still healthy and in reasonable physical shape. There is no age limit, whether you're in your twenties, thirties, forties or even fifties. It might be a little embarrassing when you start skateboarding at your 30's or 40's but practice makes perfect.
Is 11 too old to start skateboarding?It is absolutely never too late to start skateboarding. Many of today's pros never started until they were teens. Plenty of parents are grabbing their first board to try to keep up with the kids.
