That's the exact reason why I think 90% of bank to bench tricks are trash. You don't really have to grind or land the trick properly.
I'm not saying this trick is revolutionary, though it is awesome but bank to benchs allow people to do tricks they otherwise couldn't do. Tricks no one often thought of. This leads to the overall technical progression of skateboarding. Isn't that not only a good thing but also the side of skateboarding you support most?

Acknowledging shitty skateboarding? Is this for real?

I skated that place a long, long time ago when the fiberglass benches and tables were still there. Seriously those bank to bench set ups are a lot harder to skate and do actual tricks on than you would think. I managed sweet F.A not that that is saying anything. And tailsliding that fence is just plain crazy.
I also went to Lockwood and sat down and smoked cigarettes. Thats all I could manage there.

No shit!  Not to mention you have to push uphill to get to it.

Guy skating a bank to bench is always good. It doesn't even matter what he does.
Are you a kook? If you would say this, the answer is “YES”
I quit skating for a time due to piling out
