Freestyle ^^
I started freestyle, i learned "to rail", and truckstand. Then i pretty much quitted and started trying ollies and stuff ....
I feel like i'm progession really slowly and my ollies are still low,.. my flips tricks are ****ty like hell , ...
I'm going to where i started and where i hopefully will end, Freestyle, i hope i can get a FS deck in zumiez, probaly not , but whatever :p
Soo, could you give me some easy tricks ? but please no truckstand variations cuz i know they will kill my tail/nose ....
I rlly like railstand tricks and casper tricks that dont involve your hands, so, thats pretty much it :)

Be careful about giving up on street. The first tricks you learn are the ones where you progress slowly, so the case will probably be about the same with FS.

one trick i love doing cause i love flatland too is a "to rail" to casper. its pretty simple but its hella fun. also wats fun is doing 360 flips out of caspers, its alot easier than it seams. but keep it up man.

Personally, I think that's what turns so many people away from freestyle. Learning the basics of freestyle can be frustrating, takes patience and simply isn't easy. I've always found freestyle much easier than street though which is why I skate so much more of it than street.

Exactly. Once you have all the basics down you feel more comfortable, and tricks start coming more naturally. But it takes a load of practice to get to that stage. Its good that you're starting freestyle again, but I'd keep the street up too, that way you can balance and you won't frustrate yourself by allways attempting the same tricks.
i find it quite hard these days to skate freestyle and get some of my street up a little though ussually i mix my freestyle into my street anyway. casper over manny pad is the bestXD

I'm not giving up street, i wanne mix both , street for cruising and just ollieng up and down everything i see
And freestyle for ... the fun :p
i find the easiest thing the mix freestlye into street is get your fakie casper 180 pins and flip out then try it off a curb or 1 stair. then really start mixing it up so you 50-50 grind and kickflip off into railstand. but that is maybe a bit too soon.

i mix street with freestyle too
i started freestyle to get the feeling of learning from the beggining and to set myself apart from the usual type of skating
