Jumbo: Inspin & Outspin - Tutorial +

If you followed my channel before it was called "Jumbo," you'll know one of the things I was interested in doing was making "how-to" videos. I always felt like there was way more to skating than was being shown to beginners and I wanted to try and give those ideas a home. I was only able to get through about 5 of the instructional videos before an old lingering knee injury took me out of the game for a couple of years.
A blessing in disguise I guess, because being hurt inspired me to create Jumbo. But Now that I can skate again, I want to keep the idea alive.

When I get interested in something, I'll spend waaay too much time learning about. Learning about all the little technical differences in this or that. I'm that way with most of my hobbies outside of skating.

I know I'm not the only one that thinks that way and since there are so many newcomers to skating lately, I think it's important to clearly define what we're doing.

It might have been documented somewhere a long time ago, in an old magazine or VHS tape that's in someones closet collecting dust. So I think it's worthwhile to put these ideas on the internet so we can actually talk about them.

Anywho, I do a lot of this off the top of my head. So if you're watching it and thinking "ah, he should have mentioned 'this/that'", you're probably right.

Like I say at the end, thank you to everyone that supports Jumbo.
You're all cool as hell.

More to come.
