dude just don't think about it,the more you worry about bailing on a trick the more likely you will,just picture your self nailing the tricks and rolling away,

Well my advice is NEVER EVER do a trick on grass never do it... cause you'll get used to it ( like you did ) and won't be able to do them on pavement so just stick to it... you'll get hurt so shit happens try hard... or when you try to grind you are going to get a grass rail ( not to sound rude) so like stick to it and don't try it on grass.

yea, this was a problem for me, too, but not so much anymore. you just have to not think about the bad shit, and do think about when you land the trick, ya know?

Try the tricks rolling on the concrete instead of stationary on concrete. At least then youll know which way to lean. If I do any trick stationary on the concrete I never know where to put my weight and Ill end up shooting out.Just if you do them on concrete, be moving

um...go for it. very bad advice but. you must. if you bail, git your ass up off the ground and try again.

Some stuff is just naturally scary. Dont learn stuff standing still. Learn it moving. Learning tricks standing still is a waste of time and you have to learn the trick moving all over again

i find that its better just to do it on concrete.
cause if you do it on grass or somethin, then ur gonna keep hesitating when you try to do it on concrete.
