Tony Hawk's Trick Tips, Vol. 1: Skateboarding Basics [DVD]

I cannot provide a review for this item because I purchased it for a relative.

My son is 6 years old and new to skateboarding. The skateboard scene can be a little mature for that age. I previewed the DVD when it arrived and I founf nothing offensive. Tony Hawk does a good job describing the hows and whys of the sport. The only conflicting message was that some of the other boarders did not wear protective gear. That is the only fault I can find with the DVD.

It's 2016 and I imagine most people learn who don't have a friend or parent to teach them learn about skateboarding from youtube nowadays. This video is great, though. Starts with how to pick a skateboard, how to identify your forward foot, how to push and turn and ollie, kick flip, and more. It starts very basic and soon grows very advanced. It will take most people a year or more of good practice to master what is discussed in this video.

It was enjoyed by my boys 11 and 7, the video was a bit old looking and came in a broken case.

case smashed. no dvd inside the box

I bought this DVD for my son.He said this DVD was great...he's 14 years old, alot of his friends skateboard so he decided he would learn but having his friends teach him just wasn't cutting it. He now has alot of the basics down and is starting to learn tricks. This is great for the beginner.

Received as advertised in great condition and in a timely manner. I am completely satisfied.

With skateboarding influencing smaller kids with Playstation's video games and ESPN's X-Games...kids can only need help. For instance, I can remember struggling to perform an olly and finally learning with help. This tape as I viewed it really showed how to do each trick and helped strengthen my friend's performance moves. If you need help with the board buy it.

This was a gift for my sons friend who already skateboards but struggles keeping hes balance etc. All he wants to be is a good skateboarder like all his friends. He tries so hard bless him. (should probably have bought him some plasters to!) he was so chuffed with the dvd he actually got emotional when he opened it and screamed out 'Tony!' he really is a sweet boy.. he tells everyone that Tonys his idol so this DVD was the best pressie ever for him !! Only problem is he stays in all the time watching Tony now ;) thanks so much.

I buy this for my nephew for xmas because he like skateboarding & he will watch it all the time.

My son had his 1st skateboard a couple of months before getting this DVD. It's really helped him to start getting to grips with basic techniques.
