Anybody see that huge Samoan dude that been training w Sheckler and tried to drop in on Tony’s 13 ft ramp lmao!! I think he broke a rib or two, it’s on YouTube. I think he’s gearing up for another go too!!! I love skating so god damn much man!!!!!
From the 'bruh', lack of grammar and punctuation I would guess you are 16, maybe 17...No offense meant by that, I have a teenager so easy to spot. I know at your age pads and helmet are not cool to wear, but I would suggest padding up and trying the 14'. With helmet, knee pads and wrist guards you really can't do any harm. Once you get it down you can take them off. That's my two cents.
When my boys were 10ish I would pad them up (knees, elbows, wrist, helmet) and make them 'walk off' the edge of the top. Teaching them to fall correctly on the knees and bending backwards. Sounds weird but if you can fall correctly you will gain more confidence. That is my advice and worked for me and kids. They still wear knee pads on vert but have dropped elbow and wrist
