In skateboarding, the term “landing bolts” is used to describe the position a person lands after a trick. The bolts hold the trucks to the deck of the skateboard, and ideally you want to land on your bolts to ensure your tricks are successful.

Drop us an email at LandingboltsSC@gmail.com and we'll see what we can do! The more notice given the greater the chance we can make this happen for you.

Frustratingly, skateboarding is not safe in the rain or if the park is still wet! If Dom decides it is unsafe to run the session, he will contact you to rearrange an alternative time. Dom will make the final call on whether it is safe to skate and for that reason it might mean a session has to cancelled with little or no notice. Any fees paid can be carried over to the next session.

If for any reason you cannot attend the session, and give more than 24hrs notice, Dom will move the session to another time. Cancellations made within 24hrs of the start time of the session will not be refunded.

If Dom is unable to deliver your session for any reason, it will be rearranged for another time. If an appropriate time cannot be found, a refund will be offered. If for any reason you cannot attend the session, and give more than 24hrs notice, Dom will move the session to another time. Cancellations made within 24hrs of the start time of the session will not be refunded.

We have a small selection of boards for participants to use during sessions, if you don't have your own.

Yes! Your safety is of the utmost importance during our sessions and therefore helmets are mandatory and must be worn during sessions. We have a small selection available to borrow during the sessions. Elbow & knee pads are not essential but we do recommend them when starting out on your skateboarding journey. Once again, we have a small range to borrow for extra peace of mind!

One to ones Parents are encouraged to spectate the sessions. If you feel your child is ready to attend a session alone, children aged 5 to 7 must be collected at the end of the session. If you feel that your child is old enough to attend and leave the class independently, please indicate this on your booking form. Dom will inform you at the point your child leaves the session. If a child does not attend the session within ten minutes of the start time Dom will call the number on the booking form. For this reason, it is essential to complete the booking form ahead of the first session. Group sessions In order to provide appropriate supervision in a public space, an adult must attend with any children aged below 8 years old. Of course, more adults are very welcome. Group sessions are capped at four individuals to enable appropriate supervision and tuition. A note about supervision of younger children; some may prefer having their parents close by for support whilst others might need some space and it would be better to have you watch at a distance. Whatever you decide, have a think on how it might impact your child.

Yes it's fine to take pictures of yourself or your children, in fact we positively encourage it! It's a great way to remember the experience and to record progression. Just don't forget to tag us on IG! @landing_bolts_skate_school 😉 It’s worth bearing in mind that if your child is attending a group session other parents may not wish for their child to be in photos, so please be mindful not to take photographs of other peoples children.

Dom holds coaching qualifications from Skateboard GB and American Association of Snowboard Instructors. Dom will not take your children away from the agreed site of tuition. For that reason, please ensure that your children have been to the toilet before the session. There may a public toilets on location but may not be available.

Skateboarding is an inherently risky sport. Helmets, knee pads and elbow pads must be worn by beginners, some sizes can be borrowed from us. Dom will carry a basic first aid kit and your booking form outlines permission for him to administer first aid. In the event of a more significant injury or an emergency Dom will contact the number on the booking form. For that reason, the booking form must be completed ahead of the first session. If your children has had a bump that causes concern, Dom will let you know at the end of the session.
