I'm still not good, but I'm definitely improving at skateboarding. The stopping is my main sticking point right now. That, and the pushing off, every once in a while I'll be pushing and the board flies out from under me. No injuries yet but I can tell it is just a matter of time. Especially once I start to have confidence in my abilities. I'm still like a toddler taking his first tentative steps. Skating is definitely growing on me. I just need to remember to do it every day.
