Back to the Future? SkaterTrainer Review from an Older Fan

SkaterTrainers, unlike Trix, are not just for kids.   If you got that reference, then you will appreciate this article.

Here is a word for word email I just got from Casey!   

"I just ordered a set of SkaterTrainers last week, and they arrived yesterday. I am 34 years old, 6'2", 250lbs and haven't skated in 16 years. Within an hour of opening the package and putting the SkaterTrainers on, I was able to Ollie. I was also able to Ollie switch, which was pretty shocking. Thank you so much for inventing these! I only wish that they had them when I was first learning to skate in the '80s. I wanted you to know that I am extremely happy with my purchase, and plan to get some for my stepsons soon."

THANK YOU CASEY!   This stuff makes selling SkaterTrainers an awesome gig!

At the Skatepark, I am continually amazed at how many 30-45 year old dudes are getting back on their skateboards after ....

SkaterTrainer Review and Testimonial from Skateboard Content Expert

SkaterTrainers have been getting great feedback from skaters and experts.  Our users swear by them and we recently received a great review from Steve Cave.   Steve runs the About.com/Skateboarding page and is an authority on learning how to skateboard and skateboard equiement.    Google “How to Ollie” or “How to Skateboard” or “Skateboard Tricks” and many many others, and Steve appears on the first page of results.    Anyway, here is what recognized authority Steve Cave had to Say about SkaterTrainers:
 
“I don't get why no one thought of them before now! They're brilliant, easy to use, and every new skater should get a pair!

 

“When learning tricks, especially as a new skater, it's miserable to try to learn things like how to ollie, when the board can (and probably will) shoot out from under you. Then you bust up your wrist, and have to spend two months healing before you can get back to it (I'm speaking from experience!).”..............

First Time User SkaterTrainer Response and Comments from Christian

Here is Christian, a new skateboarder that is 13 years old.   Christian has been skating for less than a year, and already has a good Ollie that is getting better every day.   Christian was excited to get his own set of SkaterTrainers and agreed they would be a big help to him learning to ollie higher and straighter, as well as learning shove-its, kickflips, heelfips, and to improve his manuals.   This really is perfect timing for Christian to practice his skateboarding tricks with his set of SkaterTrainers.   


You can see the SkaterTrainers on the skateboard wheels, and how they are keeping the skateboard from rolling.   This helps skateboarders learn new tricks by stabilizing the skateboard and letting them focus on learning the skateboard trick steps.   Christian could immediately see the benefit and how the SkaterTrainers could help cut down on the falling.

You can get your own set just like this at SkaterTrainer.com

 

SkaterTrainers are fun and effective way to practice and learn skateboard tricks.   They are also great for practicing inside on a rainy day or just fooling around in general.   Thanks for checking us out!
