When it comes to learning tricks, are you more:

I look at skateboarding this same way, with the only variable being speed really.

[mclovin1336]

I usually try something then it may kind of work or getting close to work and then after 10-15 tries I get worse at it and usually just resign and do my routine stuff. Learning new wheelie combos is the worst variant of this procedure because one try you might be close and then you have 20 tries so far from the acutal trick that you lose the will to try it once more

Learning a new trick can be analytical for me, but I try not to think about the details too much. I'm definitely not fakin it til I make it. I need to have confidence that I can actually do the trick first. If I have the fundamentals of a trick dialed it boosts my confidence enough to combine them into a new trick. For example, I'm trying to learn nollie heel nose manny. I've gotten better at nollie nose manny over the last month or two and I have a good nollie heel. The other day at the park I practiced nollie heelflips onto the manual pad and got a few good ones. It's all about working up to it, not just flinging it until it works, which I guess is a pretty fuckin analytical way to go about learning tricks hahaha.

I do it the same way. Build up the confidence first and then move on to the next part of the trick. All step by step.

Post your Nollie Heel Nosewheelie here when you land it.

I'm neither.  I am more of a caveman mentality, I just do it over and over, eat it a few times and eventually stick it. None of this "open your shoulders" garbage. Trial and error, and once you got it you got it.

analyzing it never works for me, I just flick and inshallah

[versacekid420]

I just do what I gotta do

[VHS ERA]

Analytical to the point of overthinking

analytical

I'm so analytical I know exactly when not to be, which at this point is most of the time.

Mullen ON Video issue was one of my first VHS and so his step-based approach I always took for granted and applied. Nowadays I like skating with my brain mostly off and just doing whatever comes but if for some reason I feel like challenging myself with something hard, I'll still follow that logic because it's so deeply ingrained, and usually it will still work.

[Terminal]

Analytical. But I get stuck on tricks too. I can't move on to a different trick until I'm satisfied with the progress on the one I'm trying. It gets so bad sometimes that start bailing on tricks I can do (even simple ones) because all I can think about is the one I'm working on.

some people just got that dawg innem and just try and sometimes successfully do a damn trick

but that aint me cuz it takes me a couple sessions
