haha i was kidding cause im not that kind of guy but greco's last trick was a darkslide on a tiny rail he built and was done in all seriousness where wes did it on a tall mellow rail as a dork trick that happened to get cover because he did it with style

[KoRnholio8]

god, thats a horrible trend.

[ben shraider]

Fuck everybody who doesn't like this or thinks that darkslides look bad!! They've looked bad because nobody has done them good. I'm counting on wes to change that

That, and Mango's 50-50 a big ole rail to manual to front shuv down a set made me think there's a lot of rail to manual variations that would actually be awesome.

[close]

fuck no

That was one of the raddest tricks done in awhile. Fuck you.

[GatorsGhost]

I learned early on that I have too much respect for my grip to learn these, but I back them.  It's cool that you can see how the previous attempts went in his grip.

You're a fucking idiot if you think he's just "fucking around". Multiple tries visible by the marks on his board and the gleam of sweat on his face beg to differ.

the rail greco did his on isn't really there. he put it in. soooooo....

I like to call them "Scientology rails".  Bringing your own rail and bolting it into a stair set is horrible.  Greco blew it by having that as his last trick....so many others in his part would have fit. 

[Get Fucked]

wow... greco brought back the darkslide.

[doyle]

2:06 he's been darksliding for a while

[captainfalcon69]

fuck all this hate lol

backin wes, hyped he got a cover too.

[witty pseudonym]

This cover is funny because it is almost like a SLAP social experiment;  "let's take a skater that everyone loves, and lets have him do a trick that we know people will hate on and see what happens".

CK1's really hard rail tricks right into really hard flip tricks off the curb at the recent berrics thing made me think that stepping up your quick-foot game to Suciu levels might be a new trend

[close]

that fancy footwork is inherently what makes those bros so enjoyable to watch skate.  Obviously an enviable skill, speaking for myself, I'd be fucking suchooing into and out of everything, on all manner of planetered ledges, not givin zero fucks about my frequent violation of rules pending to angular momentum. 

Bros should skate how they see fit.  For every Braydon you need a TimTim, for every Gagne one Brock, for every Decenzos bros, a Zattoni Brothers.  You see where I'm going with this...good skateboarding is like trying to decide "what is pornographic?"--the answer is the same, you know it when you see it.  Fuck the trends.

Plus, if you purposefully try and skate trendy by definition you're a huge gay, totally upriver, and yurr blowin it

Dude, your brain, I like it.

Also, this is fucking gold.

? (Oh, and Boulala barely rode away from his one in Sorry

...Is there any other possible way to ride away from a darkslide?

[PsychOut]

If you have shake junt and grizzly grip then its ok to darkslide, because that is some ugly ass grip

[DGKALIS]

The one good thing i will say about Wes' darkslide....

He was hauling ass... even landed hauling ass. It was pretty nuts to watch.

[NoMoreParkFootagePlease]

We're entering a new age, a dark age, a dark SLIDE age.

Cover is sick!!!

Talented skater not robotic Maximum Respect!!!

More Wes Kremer footage!!!

Hey Kalis, can you clarify wether it's a half heel or kickflip?   



...this darksliding stuff always gets me pretty confused! Not that many people can make it look pretty (or even make it), and I think it's a weird direction to go with skateboarding - but then it's also pretty mindblowing and Rodney for sure can make it look good :-)

[Johnny Rocketflips]

Goddamn that's amazing!

[Brick]

almost looks like he's going for having his feet on the nose and tail which seems really dangerous

[poopnutsupreme]

omg so gay he shuld of jus stick to whatever slap thinks is cool

[Brown Thunder]

i liked spankys even though it was on a ledge and the cleanest..



the whole section is amazing to be fair

grecos o so h8ed ender was the best landed one I've seen, caught perfectly.

[Keanu Reeves]

as someone who works at a skateshop im dying to see how many noobs come in asking for me to regrip their perfect condition board with inexplicably thrashed griptape. should be interesting to see where this trend goes. also spanky's darkslide on that kinked miami hubba always sticks out to me

Yes, Sorry is amazing. 

Apparently Wes rode away from this darkslide with good speed and Rowley and Rodney usually ride away super clean. 


And because my nerd side is overpowering my don't give a shit side, I'm king to guess he heelflipped into it.

[popsiclesandskatin]

2:32 quarter pipe darkslide.

[stephop]

Greco was way gnarlier. It was on at least a knee high rail.
