Anyone ever just straight up forget how to do a trick? I’ve completely forgotten how to do front slappies. Idk what happened. Had them consistently without even thinking and out of nowhere they just stopped working and I’m not sure why. I feel maybe I did a couple bad ones and the habit stuck now I’m in my head. Way too satisfying of a trick for me to not want it back. Any tips? I’ve watched vids of me doing them and I feel like I’m doing all the same shit but now it’s not working.

I haven’t forgotten it, but every now and then I get in my head about those. It happens with tricks that are technically easy but require a lot of confidence.

Last time it happened I got myself a bigger setup with big (58s) wheels. That made them super easy and once I got my confidence back I could do them on any setup again.

I think it happened when I went through some gear changes recently, so I may be having a hard time adjusting. I can still do them, but the consistency has drastically gone down. I might do the same and toss some bigger wheels on until I get my confidence back.
