Best online tutorials / progression?

Hi all, I'm a long time skater but am pretty new to wizard skating. There are tons of tutorials online, but usually on one specific move... or generally outlining a progression (like fakie gazelle -> forward gazelle -> forward inside out -> etc).

As someone who's spent a lot of time on fakie gazelle with meh results, I'm wondering if there isn't a good series of progression videos online for me to follow. I see that SkateFresh has a whole online course, but at $500 it's a bit too steep for me.

What tutorials got you your first tricks, and what's the best progression (or drills) to get started?

Best thing for progression, in my experience, is to just try everything. They feed into one another. My gazelles got way better once I learned power stops. My lions improved after practicing my toe compass.

Pick something to learn, watch a few tutorials and try things out. Some videos helped me more than others, while some helped me more later than they did earlier. Learning is a process, so just keep at it.

Golden advice.
