Title: Who has the least switch looking switch treflips?
Post by: kappa2448 on December 09, 2022, 03:41:27 PM
Almost what the title says. Every skater seems to have noticeably different sw tres to normal tres.

Leandre Sanders has really nice looking "switch" tres, but I can't remember seeing him ever doing them regular.

Who has identical switch and regular tres?

Prod - this one in particular had me wondering what I was going to do with my life

Bobby Worrest is a real close second, but I don't remember him doing one down something as gnarly as Paul has.

---

The opposite question of "Who has the most switch looking tre flip" is a fun one too.

I give that to Sebo - his has quite the unique technique.

The correct answer is Brian Peacock and it's not even remotely close. The opening line and the one at 1:36.

A lot of love for Lord Bobby in this thread. Saw him do one in person at Pulaski on a skate trip with a homie and immediately had to sit down and contemplate existence. Drove 13 painful hours from ATL up there, and that sw tre made it all worth it.

PRod, Bobby and Guy are tied for the answer but Matt Reason’s switch tre down city hall 6 for his ender in that acme video is the main one I think of

Oh man it’s a classic. Would watch that vid all the way through. And it made my dad happy hearing gypsy kings and seeing a Mexican dude kill it.
The only part I ever fast forwarded was Neal Hendrix in label kills (yes I watched Mike v’s part in entirety lol)

I’m not reading the thread but the best part of switch tricks, specifically switch tre flips and switch backside flips, is that they look considerably different from a regular one.

I clearly remember seeing this clip on the INBLOOM video; that 14-years-old-me version that dreamed with pro skatelife but was barely landing 5 stair kickflips was so impressed and confused.

Almost 20 years later I can say I've only landed one switch tre and It was joking with a friend after seeing the vans video "look dude Im AVE!..." while rolling slowly, landed bolts, never worked again  ;D
