full of old man tricks

Do you guys know about the "old man ollie?" a friend of mine pretty much strictly skates bowls, transition, etc. and he's like 22 and when he ollies on flat it looks really clumsy and heavy and he never really levels it out. i always give him shit saying he's got the old man ollie.

Sounds like a vert guy ollie. If they pop the tail at all, the back foot doesn't seem to stick.
360 flips is my old man trick--been doing them for 19 years. That is, when I'm not throwing lemon parties.

staple guns

The decreasing step comfort level....
95...lets go to the 7 stair.
2000...lets go to the 5 stair.
08...that 2 stair school is awesome.

The older dudes at my park just skate the bowl, a lot of carving, pumping and 5-0's. When they hit the street course they just do little ollies and carve on the banks. Pop shuvs are their techest flatground trick.
-
this old dude, probably 34 or 35, you can see the aging, does switch frontside flips on the hip and fakie tres on the steep bank and kickflip front tails on the ledge. makes me mad
-
i'd be so hyped if i could do kickflip front tails at 34 or 35. shit i'd be happy if i could do those now. i don't know if i ever done one on anything other than a quarterpipe or a curb.

fucking darcy dennis is an old man and kills it

I am shocked that wallrides/wallies haven't been mentioned yet.
normal bs rock & rolls where the back truck hits the coping, stalled coping combo's and rare bonelesses
proper tailslides in tranny

This is the best thread on here. Why haven't I seen it before.

Fuck I need to learn Staple Guns.
I'm reletively young and have the "old man ollie". I think I was born with it.
Where do you fit, if you have no young man tricks, and only a couple of old man ones too? Fuck. Im going to concentrate on getting all the oldies dialed.
No complies, wallies, wallrides, slappies, front tails on curbs, front rocks, sweepers, disasters (on anything under 4 ft). Good ol' powerslides, front boards on ledges, Feebles on tranny... the list goes on.
I think I really need to work on my tranny skills. I have none what so ever. Ever since I was 15 my favourite dude at the skatepark has been the guy who showed up on the 8.5er with the soft yellow wheels that just 50-50, Wallied, and No Complied the shit out of everything. On his own. And then left.

step off shuvit FTW!

fingerflips and pogos.

old men cheer for tricks diffrently when someone lands something. It goes from "yeah" in your twenties, to "yip" in your thirties.

Hell yeah! My old roommate is 33, and can nollie back heel big old sets, and has crazy tech shit like switch inward heel tailslides down.
But usually, anything where the foot hits the ground is an old man trick (no comply, boneless, sweeper). On tranny the straight air is out, the air to tail/disaster is in. Styled out frontside slashes and and laybacks are also hot. Boardslides on coping with rails on your board are an old man thing too.

Haha, I feel you. I'm 17 and I also skate mostly ditches and smaller transition. I rarely even flip my board. I just have so much more fun riding.

You guys forgot any trick without spilling your beer. That's old man steez.
-
most important old guy move is having your beer stealth on lock no matter what the event or how tight the security
five 0 to rock to fakie
slappy nose slides
half cab nose

Oh man. Such an old man party; there's even a Juice magazine logo on the pool coping.
-
Oh, and the backside pivot to fakie is the quintessential old man trick.
-
I'm just getting to this old man stage (I'm 28)
My old man tricks are frontside grabs where I'm all hunched over and shit, and pretty much anything I seem to do on transition is an old man trick.

Transition is the official terrain for old men.
