Get used to your stance on your board while its not moving. Your feet should be across the board, toes pointing slightly forward. Each foot stands just behind a set of truckbolts. Choose a regular (left foot forward) or goofy (right foot forward) stance- whichever feels most natural to you.
Step 1: Pushing off is how you get moving. Place your front foot on the board, just behind the front trucks. Put your rear foot on the ground next to the board.
Step 2: Kick your rear foot backward in a smooth movement to get moving. Use your arms to keep balance on your board.
Step 3: As your rer foot completes its kick, twist your front foot across the board and get into your stance.
Ride with your knees bent and with your head up. Practise staying on your board until it stops. You can also stop by taking your backfoot off and dragging it along the ground.
