Short rant from Underground Wherehouse (2017) about commitment and pushing through fear when learning to skate. Runs about three and a half minutes and nods to Grosso's love letters style.

Why skaters like it

Newer skaters rewatch it to reset their mindset before trying something scary, and it gets linked in threads about fear of falling and learning as an adult.

I watch this video [VIDEO] from time to time to reinforce the proper mindset. It always works! Also, I keep telling myself that falling is inevitable so instead of thinking "I'm scared, I don't want to fall" I'm telling myself: "I'm ready to fall if need be, I'm not going to hurt myself too much though, so now just relax and go for it!".
