The sport is free style so you just practice doing your thing and having fun. Once you've learned to walk, that is just the begining. The natural progression is usually mastering walking and basic tricks/maneuvers, mastering different tightness and length longs, advanced tricks and even higher up lines.

There are lots of tricks recorded in this forum, so if you go and search through it there are plenty of nice ideas. If you are looking for tips on getting even better I have a collection of tips on my site that is mostly geared towards very beginners:

While your there check out the tricks on my site for some more ideas on what can be done (*note* there are far more tricks than I could ever put up, those are just a small handfu.):

There are lots of other sites out there as well; google is your friend. That should keep you busy learning new tricks and interesting info for quite some time.

Some slackers specialize on one aspect of the sport, such as masters of air jumps on super tight lines or big surfing moves on really loose lines - while others try and get really good at each little thing. Pick want interests you and go for it. As you get more and more into the sport, you'll add more and more abilities/tricks to your repertoire.
