Our mentoring program is designed to give both skateboarders and in-line skaters of all abilities the tools they need to develop their skills. Students can expect to be challenged by the instructors on skating concepts and encouraged by the outcome of repeated practice. Our mentors will do all they can to ensure that students leave each lesson with new ideas and techniques to practice. Below are some guidelines for how each class is divided:

 

      Beginner: The beginner lesson is for the child who has little or no experience riding a skateboard. These lessons cover the basics like pushing, balancing, turning, stopping, banks, and basic body movements.  

 

        Advanced Beginners: The advanced beginner is for the child who is confidently navigating throughout the park and is comfortable on the inclines and declines. If your child is interested in learning to pump banks, ride off ledges, learn kick tail control, ollie, and perform manuals, then the Advanced Beginner lesson is where he or she would fit in. The students in this lesson will be encouraged to attempt larger ramp elements and will be taught some basic transition techniques.

 

        Intermediates: The intermediate lesson is for skaters who feel comfortable on ramps and have a good grasp of the basic skills taught in the earlier lessons. Instructors will begin to focus more rigorously on the transitions and larger elements. Students will be encouraged to take their basic skills and apply them to perform more advanced maneuvers. Dropping in and pumping transitions will be emphasized in this lesson.

 

        Advanced: The advanced lesson is for students who are comfortable riding the larger ramp elements or are interested in learning more technical tricks and grinds. If your child is interested in learning a more advanced bowl carving technique then he or she would best fit into this category.

 

 

Skaters under the age of 18 registering at RCRS for the first time MUST have a parent or legal guardian present to sign registration and insurance forms.
