There are a few different ways to slow down on a skateboard. You can use your footbrake, drag your feet, or do an emergency stop. Let’s go over each of these methods in detail.
Footbrake
The footbrake is the most common way to slow down on a skateboard. To use your footbrake, apply pressure to the back of your skateboard with your foot. This will cause your wheels to slow down and eventually stop.
Drag Your Feet
Another way to slow down on a skateboard is to drag your feet. This method is often used when coming to a stop at an intersection or when you need to make a quick stop. To drag your feet, place your foot on the ground and drag it behind you. This will cause your skateboard to slow down.
Emergency Stop
The emergency stop is the last resort method of slowing down on a skateboard. To do an emergency stop, you must jump off your skateboard and land on your feet. This will cause your skateboard to come to a complete stop.
Now that you know how to slow down on a skateboard, practice these methods often. Doing so will help you become a better and safer skater.
