Did you ever skateboard?

If so thats half the job done

The first time I went I got no lessons nothing, I just watched other people for a while and eventually got the hang of it, its also a good idea to go with someone who has been before.

Two words. KNEE PADS.

I spent the first week with a wet ass from all the falling down. Look at the way other people turn. I wasnt that good but i thought it was because i wasnt concentrating on turning my body, or weight distribution.
