Title says it all. Best trick you heard went down or saw that was close to being made but wasnt rolled away from. Preferably ones that were way ahead of their time.
Here’s 2 examples:
Pops switchflip love a decade before ishod. At night.
At the top of courthouse drop in nyc (people skate into the bank or grind the ledge and pop into it then roll off.) there is a tall guardrail preventing you from skating into it straight on properly. People either ollie up from the side then in or I guess it’s a quick throwdown then pop from a slight angle.
In 2007 or 08 Jake Johnson did fs180 over the guardrail then fakie fs flip into the bank. Popped higher than a trashcan too. Did a bunch where he stepped off or landed too close to the steps. Eventually broke his board and was over it. Never heard about that one being tried after that. Never seen anyone else go over the rail before skating into it either.
Yall name some. Doesn’t gotta be pros, can def be the homies.

There was a promo for some am video many moons ago and someone locked in a noolie heel bs noseblunt but bailed it.
Never saw the video, never found out if it was a make. Was just a solid trick miles ahead of its time at that stage.
I hope my vagueness and lack of specifics or good info has been a good read.

Oh shit, really? I didn't know that. That's terrible.

my boy Ghost almost did front blunt kicklfip to fakie on that flat black handrail in far rockaway. rodent was shooting the sequence too, would have been ill to see that in thrasher back then when flipping out of rails was much more rare than it is now. he took a break for a minute but hes got new footage dropping soon hes been killing shit.
also for such an out of the way spot alot of pros have skated that far rock rail. feel like ive seen footage of fucking p-rod there. who took prod to far rock haha.
also jake was with us that day too and only tried it twice, but landed on and stepped off treflip bs noseslide down the same rail both tries. this was 2008 as well. good times watching that dude film for mindfield.

A few come to mind,
-Spanky's epicly laterd John Miner talks about a spot he tried to frontside flip for his ender in stay gold and never got (help me out here dont know the name).
-I've heard mentions of someone trying to big flip Wallenburg in a bunt interview, again cant remember the name of the skater but I know the spot this time.
-Chris Joslyn tre flip el torro if it hasn't been said.
-Rick Mccrank nollie hardflip carslbad would've been cool for the time

I thought Shier destroyed his ankle on the bail that is in the intro where he clips the fence in the opening of Waiting for the World.

guy mariano was super close to ss3f at the van owen bump in 96. koston did it regular in his menikmati part 4 years later and it was still slo-mo worthy, which illustrates how fucked guy's make would have been.
there's a bunch of penny ones. one i would've loved to see was 3fns on vert. there's some mid 90s footage of him getting pretty close.

I think I remember hearing someone on the nine club say a fs flip was stuck down Davis gap. I wanna say it was either tommy gunz or Ryan decenzo who tried it.

Didn't Tommy Sandoval try it in one of those ETN live session things?

Heath's lip was the first thing I thought of. Watching it on that beagle tape filled me with anxiety. Must've been heavy to be there. The amount of times he stomped it and the beatings he took equals a make in my book.

i can't provide a source, just jumbled misremembered hearsay, but it's more one of those where you could count it or not depending on how harsh/generous you are. i heard he landed a little sketchy, rolled down the bank but then lost control trying to make the switch fs carve as he came up the other side (which given he goes with quite tight trucks, probably would've needed to be a pivot). guess it depends whether you see that as part of landing the trick, or a separate thing.

if he rolled up the opposite bank its a make.

Aurel tried to ollie it, not kickflip iirc.

Jerry Hsu is the king of this for me (unfortunately). Cant find the clips now but In some bside from Emerica he does the single best looking nollie backside flip I’ve ever seen down a massive six block (the one Reynolds half cab flips) and stomps it a few times. In another one he almost lands an amazing sw hardflip over a huge handrail but ends up nutting himself on the rail in the most unfortunate way. Those would have been two of my all time favourite tricks.

No, it was that double set that all the World/Girl heads used to skate in the early/mid nineties. Jeremy Wray fakie heeled it, etc
I’ve always wondered how close Penny got to the front blunt. Like was he actually sliding to end or just kind of fucking around near the top? Bananas nonetheless...

He did make that, it was his ender in Sabo 4.

Also, his attempts were equally impressive. Jumping down the love gap, missing the flip and just landing on his feet like it's nothing.

Might have been the last, sickest thing done there. I'd definitely rate it above TJ's varial flip.

My favorite part about this is what he said on the bunt, that he basically felt like he had to film a part because he got the trick and didn’t want it just thrown in a random montage.
