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?

Since no one else said it I will, watch videos of people you want to skate like or moves you want to do and emulate it best you can while recording yourself. Critiquing what your doing wrong and acknowledging what your doing right. All the moves are really pivots that shift where the edge is and weight is displaced. The more you do it the more you’ll start to realize it. It could also be other things a weak core are low ankle mobility, weak legs or calves.But without seeing anything , you wouldn’t know.
