The pace of the times is always accompanied by certain sports, and skateboarding, which is popular all over the world, is certainly not to be missed. Skateboarding can not only enrich your life but also exercise your body. Especially for children, skateboarding can allow them to exercise their bodies, increase their relationships with adults, and improve their social interaction skills. However, the difficulty of skateboarding is still quite high. Here are some tips to keep the balance of skateboarding.
1.Body on the skateboard
Stand on both feet, with the skateboard flat on the ground in front of your feet. Start with one foot on the front of the skateboard, with the other foot still on the ground.
2.Body leaning forward
Move your body weight to the feet already on the skateboard, lean your upper body slightly forward, bend your knees, and extend your arms to maintain balance.
3.Retract the other foot
The foot on the ground first pushes lightly, then receives the skateboard and puts it on the back of the skateboard. At this time, the whole body and the skateboard begin to slide forward.
4.Back foot landing
When the skateboard has not come to a complete stop and is still sliding forward, put your weight on the front foot and put the rear foot on the ground like landing gear.
5.Shifting the center of gravity
After the back foot hits the ground, shift the weight to the back foot, then lift the front foot so that both feet are on one side of the skateboard. When you can go up and down the skateboard freely, you should try to change the front and rear feet position to familiarize yourself with the reverse sliding posture.
