a while ago i bought an element skateboard in florida on vacation.
but i just cant seem to get the hang of turning.
i can go straight and everything.
but i am having trouble getting up the curbs, and all the basics
does anyone have any pointers (link)

well you cought yourself a right quality board there, now then to turn. people will tell just lean back and forth but thats not all you do. to that theres an element of leaning, but you will need to point your toes up and down to lean the Board. curbs are quite easy if you can balance for just a second on the nose and the tail of the board just lean back a teensy bit on your tail while you approach the curb and lift it up so the wheels will get over it then lean forward on the nose to bing the back wheels up over with you. it may take a few tries but if your really into it youll be doing it again and again to get better at it, and before you know it youll be ollieing that curb and riding away clean

i'm taking up skateboarding just to keep me busy and i was wondering what foot goes first on the board. i'm left handed and left footed so which one goes front? (link)
| |
i did it like this.. put the board on some grass or somthing that will stop it moving anywere fast, then just take a little run up to it and which ever way you feel more natural landing on it is the way your gonna go, and normally which ever foot is the one going forward is the one you should put on your board first allways push with your back foot if you cna help it (skating with your back foot on the board and pushing with your front foot is called Mongo try to avoid this its hard to get your feet into position for tricks and stuff)

How can I get started in skateboarding? There's no one around to help me but I see it in movies and it looks interesting. I'm too scared to ask the people at the skatepark because I am a girl, which should not be a problem but there might be. I have a board and can ride it. (link)
