Help - I need to overcome a mental block!!!
Bushwacked:
I've got a stupid mental block going on down my local skate park!!! :'(
There are these Quarterpipes which are about 6-7foot high and the top 6-12inches is near vert. I've done similar but not as high at Corby and I'm desperate to drop in off them but just can't do it...
I can get up them no problem and can stand by the edge and drop in but can't do a rolling drop in... It just freaks me out....
How can I sort this out? (Manning the F*** up has been going through my mind but hasn't really helped).
The annoying thing is I know I can do it but for some reason everytime I roll to the edge I bottle it!!! :-\
It is just a case of leap of faith or can anyone give me some tips???
evamedia:
Just a leap of faith mate, you know how to do it, no amount of discussing it is going to help you.
As you said, man the f*** up and do it.
Was in the same situation a while ago with vert ramps (11ft+) met some people at playstation that I sort of knew, they were doing it, so I thought f*** it and went for it. Then wondered what all the fuss was about.
Bushwacked:
That's the thing I know once I've done it I'll be like - "what was all the fuss about" - can't break the cycle.
JT71:
go to Saffy with Jedi and get him to show you the pool, drop in there a few times and you'll be sorted.
SaMAlex:
The best advice I ever had on this kind of thing was just to
"Get scared, and then do it".
Thanks John Dye, you were spot on. :daumenhoch:
