Skateboarding

Hello bloggers
Today we had our 2 final skateboarding sessions.We had a lot of fun and learned a few more tricks.I learned how to do the tic tac the tic tac is when you move the board to the side to turn.. We had 2 sessions.At the last session we went up one ramp.At first I was like no I can't do this.But the last time I was so so good.Our coaches were Aiden and Martin from Auckland sport.People kept on holding me but then I was resilient.My opinion for skateboarding is phenomenal.The only part that I didn't like today was we had to do skateboarding in the hall because outside was wet.When we were packing up the gear I realized that I forgot  how to put away the gear.But then some boys helped me.BYE!!!

Starting term two with a roll

Hello and welcome back to term two.

I learned how to ride a skateboard.The skateboards that we were using were called penny skateboard.

We had to put on elbow pads,knee pads,wrist guards,closed shoes and helmet.

The skills that we learned were use your right hand as a steering wheel and to put your heel at the right angle.

Then we had to pack up.

To pack it up we took our helmet off and put it on the ground like a bowl.

next you have to take off your wrist guards and strap them together with Velcro.

After that do the same with the elbow pads.

When that is done we take off your knee pads and put one on the ground and put the other on top.

Once we are done put your elbow pads on your knee pads.

Now when we are done we take the long straps and then wrap it around the whole thing.

Finally you check if you did it right by asking Aiden our instructor.
