that gave me this "kid that has a great intro part for lakai, gives me some hope for its future and then bounces for nike" feeling.

really liked it though.

When you land your 180 with feet, knees and shoulders forward I applause
I had to screen cap this just based on how much I loved seeing his toes pointed forward.
There's obviously style in fakie and switch stances but it reveals a lack of comfort in 'riding backwards'
It takes practice to develop strength and grace and very few have it on the rollaway like this

Goddam I love nerdy analysis like this.  Solid example of how a skater who does relatively simple shit can still be incredibly skilled.

Switch Heel is the same gap that Olson kick flipped in that Nike true to form clip.
