How to Stop a Skateboard: Tips and Techniques for Staying Safe on Your Board
To stop a skateboard, you can drag your back foot on the ground or tail of the skateboard and lean back while keeping your front foot on the board. Another method is to press down on the tail of the skateboard and lift your front foot, causing the board to pop upward and slow down. For more advanced riders, you can also use powerslides or slide your board sideways to slow down or stop. It is important to practice stopping techniques in a safe environment to avoid any potential injuries.
