Before you try to ollie or kick flip, practice pushing off, rolling and carving. This will help you developed the balance and muscle memory you will need before you start to break bones.
Breaking your arm trying to kick flip a stair set or gap is sexy as it gets. Breaking your arm rolling down the driveway? That just bites...
Remember, all of skateboarding is falling. You can't beat gravity. Falling with syle. That's just rocks. Stick with it. If it hurt? It was probably worth it! lol
