How to Stop on a Skateboard

Now that you know how to get underway, you may want to know more about how to detain a skateboard! There are several ways to end his skateboard.

Footbreaking - The easiest way is to take off his back foot and drag on the ground. It takes some practice, and you really should spend some time focusing on now, before you need it, so you can stop when you need to! Read How Footbreak instruction and help.

Drag the heel - This takes some practice, but it is a common way to detain people who have been skating for a while. Basically, put the heel of your foot back so it's hitting off the back of your skateboard, and lean back so that the front of your board appears in the air. Step down in the heel, but make sure the first half of his foot was still on the board. Your heel should drag a short ways and should therefore be stopped. This will be implemented - which may fall on his back a couple of times, and launch aboard in front of you a couple of times while learning.

Power Slide - powerslide are popular in the Tony Hawk video games, but in fact are quite advanced. I mention this because I'm guessing that has played the game and wants to do - it does look very cool! Well, compared to conclude that for a while - that have not even reached kickturns yet!

The bail! -- When all else fails, just jump from your forum! If your knees are bent, while the ride, this should not be difficult. And if leap forward, his skateboard is usually stopped. Just remember - the purchase of a new skate is much cheaper and easier than getting a broken arm, or a new face!
