Any skater’s biggest fear is often not being able to skate, and as a result injuries can easily throw us into a real negative state. In this video I drop 4 different methods to handle the mental side of injuries. Yes, injuries and time off from skating is challenging, but there are certain techniques and methods that can make it more manageable. Even flipping it into something positive.These are some techniques that have helped me and some I use with the skaters I coach.APPLY FOR SKATE COACHING HERE:https://www.thedailypush.com/skate-performance-coaching

You know those people that just radiate good vibes and make you think, "damn, this guys know something I don't!" Well, that's Adelmo Junior.

Adelmo's skating has been inspiring me for literally two decades, and after having the opportunity to sit down and do this interview with him, I can now say he's a big inspiration for me as a person too.

We hit many different topics from ice baths, the keys to learning and committing to tricks, why the skate community is so special, and for me the most important thing - why gratitude will make your life better.

Since we recorded this interview I straight up feel like I've started to be more grateful for things, and it feels good! Hopefully I keep it up, and I hope you get as much from the interview as I did.
