On the third week of Skateboarding our intrepid adventurers were definitely into mastering the skills to ride the boards. They are having a heap of fun and have been inspired to bring in boards from home to ride in the mornings before school.
I have a much healthier appreciation for skateboarders and the effort and skill it takes to use a board. It is a heap of fun! These video clips are the kids really just starting to learn, we will take more next week, because some students have moved on to tricks.
Lucky for us the weather has been good for most of our sessions and we can be outside on the courts rolling around. On our second lesson it was raining so we spent time breaking down a skateboard and putting it back together. This was really interesting as we learnt how important the different parts of the wheel bases were and what they did.

ReplyDeleteLOVED watching the video clips of you skateboarding. How many of you saw poor Mrs Sands fall off? What a star she is getting back on and trying again, that is true persistence and a great risk taker:-) I am impressed that you got to pull the skateboard apart and put it back together again. How did you all go with that? Was it easy or hard? Did you have any pieces leftover at the end? Thanks for sharing your skateboarding skills.
