Ishod's ability to always be improving, even when you think he can't get better, he starts killing transition out of no where.

Understatement of the century right here. Almost makes me want to change my answer. But I ain't no two timin', answer changin', fence sittin', beer drinkin', dog pettin', green bean eatin', I have no idea where I'm going with this.

sometimes i day dream about being able to just skate a plaza like bobby worrest. just push around an lace shit for hours back to back to back would be so furring rad. nothing scary or a brain-melting megaultratech 4 day challenge, just relaxed flow.

No argument I make is valid? You really should have said I want to steal cheetahsheets skate IQ because damn you look fucking dumb. I was waiting for somebody to say take cheetahs IQ because that would unlock every trick for you like a cheat code.

Mandersons ability to basically do anything

This is how I usually try to skate, I always try and make things into a line. I'll usually do this a couple times in a couple different little spots, and then I'll try to link those lines into one giant line. I'm definitely nowhere near as good as Bobby lol, we just seem to have a similar approach maybe? It doesn't take a huge bag of tricks either, as long as you have a few for each type of obstacle, you can mix and match them all up.

i think what he's trying to say is that he has bobby-esque line mechanics

I might try to skate like that in terms of piecing things together, but I assure you my bag of tricks tends to get in the way of doing anything near what he does lol.
