I really hate editing, just wish there was a good 'filmer' mode that replicated someone filming you, popped it into a longer timeline and you could just finesse it, or export it as clips for your editing software and upload directly to a central server / youtube metatagged so you could press select and choose to watch peoples clips connected directly to the spot youre at. I don't care to watch videos of session on youtube, but would definitely watch it if it was part of the game and notified you when your friends did an edit. I hate how bad games are at forming communities.
I use the gameplay camera in the editor for this specifically. Put in the key frames where you want the finessing. L1/LB to enter in montage mode, then free camera. You can tweak the camera, update the keyframe, and scrub the lifeline forward (L2/LT) and backward (L1/LB) to see the changes. If you mess up, just go back to game camera, ad the keyframe, and tweak it again.
Using the game camera as a starting point gives you a good momentum without the janky or sudden movements. I tend to lower the camera closer to ground as a starting point. I might move left/right, depending on the approach of the trick. I might nudge the camera forward if I want a good, underneath shot of a grind. Throw in a camera roll for some extra flair.
Once you're used to it, you can start or end from a tripod or stationary and then add in the movement using the gameplay camera. Ramp up or down speed here can take some extra practice.
At the least, this should give a decent starting point for editing as if the camera is skating behind to your player.
