Title: Catching kickflips with your back foot tweaked out sideways like a ninja
Post by: TheNAC on July 20, 2012, 08:08:26 PM: I did one for the first time today down a two block. I felt like it looked awesome, and I know I look like an idiot skateboarding.

Post by: Mole on July 28, 2012, 03:01:45 AM: I like a good ninja kicky if it's done naturally. Having said that, i would much prefer a cleanly caught backfoot slap kicky ala Mike Carroll.

Post by: brownjenkin on July 30, 2012, 08:52:48 AM: I fucking love the tweaked foot catch on fakie flips, when it actually looks like they're traveling backwards. I can't think of any examples off the top of my head, though.

Torgeson did a perfect one in a line after a frontside 180 switch crooks in the same video. Really wish I could post videos right now.
