Making Sharp Turns on Your Skateboard: Free Online Skateboarding Tips

Hi! my name is Brandon and I work at BC Surf-n-Sport here in Coral Springs, Florida. You can find us on the web at www.bcsurf.com and I just want to review a little bit. I taught to you already how to push a little bit, start moving and then we went into little bit into turning and now I am going to show you how to do it more sharper turn in a skateboard. So far we talked about pushing, you have your front foot over the front part of your bolts and your back foot towards the back wheel and you start taking a push, to get a little bit used to pushing and just to get a little bit more comfortable with it you want to take a couple more pushing and move a little bit faster and then you want to turn by leaning your weight forward or backwards, it is not a sharp turn, it is just a slight turn just to get you started, but then if you want to start to get into little bit more sharper turns what you want to do is you might take a couple of pushes, put your foot under your tail, twist your shoulders a little bit and then swing the rest, half of your body around by putting also a little bit of weight on the tail. This way you move the board in any direction you want to back and forth. This also can help you gain a little bit of speed by doing this.
