i love skateboarding.. i could skate my whole life away and not even notice i was dead, but i can't help being frustrated with myself. I keep trying a trick for 6 months.. it's close, i do what everyone tells me to, but i still can't land it just right. like i said though i love boarding and i want to do more. but this trick would be the logic thing to do, but yet, i can't do it. Now i had it, but landing it wrong before i went on Vaca, then i came back from vaca a week later and could barley ollie at first... so now i'm stuck in the hole i've been stuck in since .. ever.. and argh, it makes me frustrated and i can't look at my skateboard anymore and go inside.

any one else ever get frustrated?

it took me awhile to learn things after i didnt skate for a week or so but i got it back finally. you just got to work with it i guess. just keep trying i guess is all i can tell ya. you get it soon and then youll be happier.

yeah vacation always messes me up, i try not to get frustrated although i always do, i find when i relax and don't crowd up my mind i seem to skate a lot better, just try the trick a few times and if u get frustrated just take deep breath and relax, that really doesnt make much sense but it works for me

yea that is why i take my board anywhere i go. vacation doesn't stop me. i skated for a week on a 10' by 5' slab of concrete once just practicing kickflips. i get really frustrated sometimes especially when kickflipin stairs. sometimes u gotta go for and fall

I hate when that happened, also it pisses me off when your board turns on you when you are trying to do a trick for example when I try to do any trick riding my board in a certain way the skateboarding will turn right and that pisses me off cause I have to use more strength on mantaining my way blah.

Yeah that happnes a while I go, I could 360 flip then I had to stop skating for about a month I kind had to re learn all my tricks but when I tried to 360 flip the board would flip 540 instead, now if i try to 360 flip, the board won't even flip. So I kinda sent 360 flips to hell and I'm just skating around trying to land all the tricks I can 10/10 times.

yeah... it happens to me. a lot. like i've spent days and days just trying to kickflip...that's all i would do for days at a time. and i basically still cant....so work on stuff you already can do like ollies and stuff like that and just do em over stuff. it's a good way to improve w/o getting frustrated cause you can already do the trick, it's just over stuff.

Yeah I always get hurt so easy because I have really weak ankles so I always break it or sprain it or something so then I have to practically learn all the stuff I just learned like before I sprained it all over again.

Fir that I do one of two things. Light up something or sit and relax for a while, then go at it again.

Yah guys, i was sooo pissed at my mom when we went on vaca. She's like nope you can't bring it (i tried to sneak it but it made her even more made when she caught me) and then i saw this skatin shop with a halfpipe and everything kinda like a mini park attacted. I was so mad! <mad face>

ill blame my stuff like my shoes or trucks or even the hardware sometimes if im really frustrated. then ill throw things, break things, ill calm down and i end up landing the trick or w/e. Depends if i still have a board.
