For anyone who is about to post in this thread, remember a ollie is not a trick but a skill. So dont say your first trick was an ollie because it wasn't. Anyways my first trick was a kickflip, I learned it in about a week after a ollie. Then a pop shuvit and moved on from there.

Tic-Tacs for me too, but to be honest actually staying 'on the board' was in my opinion my first trick(while moving that is), not as easy as you think bearing in mind the first board I rode was only 6 inches wide, it was an old plastic piece of sh*t from the early eighties that my elder brother had left rotting at the bottom of a cupboard. Man were those trucks loose! You really felt it when you were bombing down the hill and trying to stay up, which I didn't of course, especially when there was a car coming the other way!{rf)

Madison
03-18-2008, 11:22 PM
Fakie shove-it when I was like 7.

Once I got back on the board, Big spins were my first new trick.
