How to Roll Up a Skateboarding Ramp

Video Transcript

"Hi, we're going to talk a little bit about a basic part of ramp skating. Which is getting to the top of the deck from the bottom of the transition without using your hands. Simply rolling up and over the copping. You are going to approach the transition with your knees bent, lift your front trunk in wheels over the copping. As soon as you feel the weight over the copping, shift your weight to the front foot. Put your weight on your front wheel and let your back wheels roll over the copping smoothly and roll onto the deck. This is an easy way to exit the ramp or exit the skate area when you completed your tricks. Notice that the key to this trick is letting your front wheel do all of the movement. As soon as your trunks go over the copping make sure all of your weight is on the front wheels. Your back wheels will naturally follow with over the copping and you will roll onto the deck safely."
