when you land with your back foot to much on the edge of the tail that it lands on the ground and spread your legs...
same thing with your nose, the skate just run over your foot...
when you fall of the top of someting a bit high like a quarter pipe with your back and not being able to breed...

i've been doing a lot of nollie into slide\grind type tricks on tranny lately and if you get those wrong there is this slam to your ribs\hip that's really annoying.

When your bombing a hill with enough speed so you can't run out of it, and than you get speed wobbles, and realize your fucked, and have to decide how to bail, while each second you get going faster and faster. That happened to me the other day for the first time in awhile.

let me just name a few of the hammers in this video...

I like takin slams sometimes, esspecially after being hurt for a while and not skateing.


But most of the time it sucks, the worst being hitting a fart rock, hippers, and unexpected slip outs.

I fuckin' hate breaking falls with my wrists.  I jacked them both trying rock to fakies and now whenever I fall with my weight on them it kills.
Bailing on a bump to bar ollie and catching both feet.  Went straight to both palms, wrist drama.

im gunna go with skating a mini you bail and your board rolls up the ramp then down.  Either spearing your fallen body or destroying your ankle as you stand up.
  That's allways a good one. You fall on a mini ramp, then your board shoots back at you to add insult to injury.

Kickflip at a fast speed and landing in a little crack and eating shit.
Rode off a mini and the board last second rotated and I landed feet on the trucks.

hitting a rock with a drink in your hand is always pretty embarassing

not a slam but realizing too late that you ran over some goose shit and now it's sprayed all over the bottom of your board/fingers.

in winter our skatepark was being built and i was skating a steep banks. landed on a kickflip funny and caught my head with my hand sending snot all over my hand. the momentum sent me rolling to the side of the bank where there was some construction straw that proceeded to stick to my snotty hand. i had to walk home (i was 14 at the time) and the straw froze to my snotty hand. sucked.

not really a slam either but when you're trying to do a flip to fakie on a bank and for some reason there's just too much pressure and you can't pop. what the fuck is with that?

haha same shit happend to me while I was skating boston, some random lady was handing out these ginger/orange popsicles in chinatown, and I was skating down the street eating it, then the road turned into this unskatable cheese grater asphalt and I fell straight forward onto my hands and took a huge chunk out of my palm, and my popsicle was covered in filth,  best popsicle I ever had :'(

The way I fell to sprain my ankle was lame.
My front foot wouldnt come off my board after a botched smith.
It then flipped up over my ankle and all my weight came down on it like my ankle was in a vice between the board and concrete.

And anytime I find those little rocks that are just big enough to stop you.... it sucks.

Running out of a trick or what have you and not being able to have your feet catch up to how fast your body is going to. Straight to scorpion.

You know the more I think about it, the more badass that actually is.
You must be new to the Skateboard game.  This is real industry talk.  "It's all about who you know".  And that's real.  So, I know a few people that can make it happen.
