Yes, here's a legit pro doing yoga: [VIDEO] And not just that, he also lifts weights and is mindful of his diet. In a way, your student is right - a lot of pros can get really good at skating without doing any extra exercise outside of skating. But there's certainly a case to be made for improving performance and preventing injury with yoga and training outside of skateboarding. I lift weights and do yoga stretches to keep skating and reduce injury risk.

[VIDEO] just do the leg stretches I’ve been doing this everyday before skating and it helped me out a lot. And if you’re not going to land a trick don’t stomp and put pressure on the board that’s what causing you to roll ankles, instead try to jump away from it and land on your toes.
