Which coaching session is right for you?:
Beginners: learn the foundations - from the correct way to stand, stop and correct, to the basics of skateboarding safely.
Intermediate: learn how to turn on ramps and creating lines throughout the park (combining two or more tricks in a row is called a “line”, e.g. drop-in on a ramp followed by a Kick Turn on another ramp).
Advanced: for skaters who want to become proficient in connecting all the tricks around the park, focusing on correct technique and body positioning and the skater’s individual goals.
GEAR: bring your own equipment or borrow some for free; protective pads, helmets and skateboards are available for use
