Bonjour bloggers.
Last week on Friday we had some skateboarding lessons. The coaches' names were Ben and Laurence (lo-rin-s). They are young, but good coaches with the guts to ride and teach.
They taught us a few things for a beginner when we ride. One thing that we learnt was how to push on a skateboard and do balancing lunges on the skateboard. We also learned how to do Tic-Tacs. A Tic-Tac is when you have one foot on the tail of a skateboard and the other on the screws at the front, then you put the most weight at the back and use your arms to move you from left to right.
Another trick we learnt was we had to have put our feet under the skateboard with it upside-down and jump, flip it and land on the skateboard. If you think you might fall over and hurt yourself on the concrete, then try doing it on the grass.
Blog you later.
They also have their own company called Young Guns Skate School. Don't forget to look at the photos
