Vert is very different from any other type of skating so practicing street and park arent really gonna help. Hitting quarters and bowls will give you some experience as to how to ride a vert ramp but if you wanna learn vert and theres a vert ramp around i would just practice on that. And definetly buy a helmet and pads.

Yea... I agree with the other Mike. I LOVE vert... And if you wanna start doing vert skating, KNEEPADS ARE YOUR BEST FRIEND! I can't stress that enough!

I love vert myself too one day at the park I just went over and started pumping it this also gave me a nice break from not landing grinds but if you want to get into it sometime there is no need to wait get at it.

if you can drop in and front side stall, then ur already on your way. those are the first two things i would learn.
