Like a lot of the comments are saying, find a smooth flat surface and put on some protective gear if you’re afraid of falling. Next best thing it to start off on some carpet and get used to the board and balancing in different positions and then move outside. Check out this video for some examples on how to get comfortable and work your way up to rolling around on your own. You can DM me as well if you have more specific questions!
