[The Turtle]

I'm sometimes fast, sometimes slow, it changes for me.

[Craig Himself]

Im real slow

[Flip Boy]

I am really slow i learn tricks and it takes liek 2 weeks to land them well(ish) i still cant kickflip a set of 3 and that was 3 months ago i learned kickflips...

[hullo]

Yeah belive it or not I can fakie 540 flip better than 360 flip I've been trying them for like 2 months how long did it take you guys to land them?

[Freaky Styley]

Doesnt matter at all.

Determination
long fun filled hours on the street,park,or even garage/driveway
Scars and heart is the key to being successful.
if you stick to it u will get it....and never freakin stop.
90% of all skaters quit after one year.....so dont hate ur slow progression...cuz it dont matter...

one year u will get to a point to where if you can think of it .....u can do it!

I took that last one from Mr. Mullen....

[AIRZ1]

Well i was reallly slow at learning kickflips and flip tricks but once i got kickflips i found most other flip tricks were mainly the same sort of motion.

[snoboarderbob14]

mm slow....but I rarely have time to skateboard. Last time I skated was 41 day ago....*tear* I don't even know exactly where my board is right now....somewhere in my room

Why not learn slow?
Instead of trying to learn every trick at once?

I mean it makes sense I've been working on a couple of tricks which I have learned and which I have stuck down but I still attempt them all the time getting them better and better,

If you try to learn to much at once in say 5 years you'll be all over the place and your tricks will be sloppy, (think about it),

[Craig Himself]

I Agree with mat - i dunt wana learn tricks now and luk all sloppy

[Dan-e-B]

i agree with mat also, but even hes fast wen hes tryin to be slow, i htink either me or creAms the slowest, hey, did u kno, he hurt his toe, n went back on his borad 3 days l8er, forgot how to ollie, heh, but im slow at learnin, but, weneva i learn a new trick, its hard for me to forget it, so thats a good thing, im in to stalls at the moment, n i find theese quick n easy to learn, but , im rubbish a flip tricks, those take me aggess, ask mat n craig, hehe, - Dan-e-B

[Craig Himself]

Yeah he's rubbish at flip tricks lol

[Flip Boy]

I always learn slow then maybe i land like a new trick then another then another then i blow up, thats about it reaslly, i manualed yeh and went to go off the curb and put it down to early haha went flying in the road, t'was funny though, almost spanked me head on a rail after a f/s boardslide attemp yesterday, scared me cos last time i hit me nose on it...(ouchies)

[BoArDeR420]

im a really fast learner, at just about everything...

[sKaTiNpUnK]

i think i'm a little more that normal, but after my accident, i'm giong to be SOOOOOOOOOO SLOW....which i can deal with that, like Feaky Styley
said, it's determination and heart, and i've got that. :D

[hullo]

Umm I progress kinda medium. I mean the problem with that is that i try and learn to many tricks at once.

[TwiztidSkater15]

im kinda slow

Genius!

im starting to slow down after i learned heelflips. I still laugh at myself since ive been skating for 3 yrs and just learned heelflips...

[snowboarder]

Huh...during the first 2 weeks I started skating, I was progressing pretty fast since I learned ollie on my first day, and pop-shuvit the weeks after, as for boardslides, it came just after the pop shuvit.....then It took me like 2 other weeks to get the ollie all the time and rolling, I'm still not really good at pop shuvits and I'm getting suckier on boardsildes day after day (not enough practice maybe)....no I'm progressing kinda slow, since it's been more than 2 months since I skate and I only landed a kickflip once....and never even came close to get it after......

[screwdupkid]

:(Slow is an understatment for me, it started alright coz i learned fakie shuvits before ollies but now it just seems to take ages doin anythin. Maybe i shud practice more!:rolleyes:

[sk8erfreek88]

i started really slow, wich cuazed me to quit for almost a year. then i saw som kids skating and started to miss skating so i started back up. i'm still sorta slow but i'd rather learn just 1 trick at a time and get good at just that one trick.

Jebus! I couldn't have said it better myself.

The normal person usually starts off slow the first 2-3 years. After that you usually learn everything within a few days. That's how it was for me and everyone i usually skate with.
