If at first you don’t succeed – it can be tempting to give up.  Don’t just give up.  Mely_skates has been skateboarding for three year and she keeps working on tricks till she lands them.  This picture is from her video of a feeble at Wirth Skate Park.

I believe in skateboarding for fun, so landing tricks isn’t my priority but I do believe in the power of learning how to stick with something until you get it.

I agree with Albert Einstein that Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.  That’s why working on a trick, trying different approaches until you get it is so powerful.  Trial & error may not be glamourous but it’s definitely a skill that will help you both on & off the board.
