Will there be a resurgence of this trick in 2023?
Also, is it ever acceptable?
-
Backside maybe, it is far most tasteful of two directions.

Ali Boulala, Emile Laurent and Zered Bassett did the only three street bonelesses that should ever be done

I'm partial to Louie's fs 360 boneless in bag of suck
-
Street boneless, backside, frontside, they do serve a purpose. They get you comfortable jumping on your board, if you can blast a big frontside boneless it feels pretty good, if you get anywhere close to Jeff Phillips on a vErT ramp or Lee Ralph then more power to you.
But, maybe we should ask Kelly Hart with his jump rope expertise, the front to back to front to back hopscotch jump rope boneless is no joke.

I’ve been eating quite a few boneless wings out in these streets and plan to continue to do so in 2023 (buffalo, garlic parm, old bay - let’s get it)
-
do you skate for fun or because you hope to impress people?

Local kid had a very nice street boneless

grab your board, jump and land on it, it's ok

Dang, I strained my neck watching street boneless' on a PC lol...
I think they always look pretty bad on film but they are fun to do.

As a native Marylander old bay wings kinda suck, old bay is probably one of the most overrated seasonings of all time. It has a place but it doesn’t go with everything like people act
Hot take: no complys deserve to be as illegal as bonelesses, and I find bonelesses very impressive when people can blast them and do them quickly
Also boneless into handrails is sick
-
Like benihanas and pressure flips etc it's always acceptable for fun but for filming it's gotta be pretty good. If you're taking yourself really seriously doing one maybe just relax

I don't like bending down to grab rail before the board has left the ground.
But I do like the old no comply bounce, catch, bean plant. You seen that? Drehobl does it good.

Could not agree more. Too much effort not enough gnar.
-
Unless you're doing one into a hurricane on a handrail like Zane you might want to rethink pulling one out
-

Backside will look much better, but it needs to depend on the street obstacle or the style
-
Is there any trick that is more different frontside vs backside than the boneless? Backside seems a lot more delicate, nimble and precise, where frontside is like rahhh brute force mike v smash.
-
They’re a trick for young short people. It just looks undignified for us old tall dudes.

i would rather put a bullet in my head than do a 360 frontside boneless down a set but props to this kid for being brave

If you watch the rest of the video, there's actually a good amount of sick skating. One kid sacks a rail.

cool when zane did them
other than him as laChat would say "thats a no no you lil silly hoe"

I made a rule as a tall guy no grabbing the sides of the board. Beanplant/nosegrab boneless while still not cool is a little nicer. (Don't pre grab, pop that shit up into your hand)

i like the arguments against doing them based on being too fat, tall, and/or simply lazy to bend over to grab the board.
none of the insecure kooks in here talking shit can do anything that looks as smooth as this

Imagine how high tyshawn could boneless if he practiced them really hard, that would be insanely sick if he could do them like 4 feet off the ground

I always wished I could do bs boneless on transition but it’s like a tongue twister for my body (also I don’t try it ever)

He's still got it. To manual a couple of days ago

if you have to ask, you'll never know
-
I think fs bonelesses in transition look way sicker than bs bonelesses when done correctly. But the difference is that a bs bonelesses almost always look good while fs bonelesses look like shit 50% of the time, decent 30% of the time and amazing 20% of the time.
-
Legal if you have a bag of tricks to support it that aren't kook. Mike V def doesn't have a sandwich baggie of tricks to hold up against his street boneless... Or his street plants. Shudder.

True.
I enjoy watching woman’s skateboarding but there was a period a few years ago when 8 of 10 park skaters were doing FS bonelesses and they were all bad. Basically just doing a foot stall as an obvious time-eater. Like people please do anything else. An axle stall would look cooler.
Someone, I forget who, started boosting them so there’s hope but for a while there OMG it was hard to watch. When that trick is bad it is so bad.

I Fucking hope not. Mostly it's done wrongly.
You gotta pop that shit into your hands not scraping the ground with your back hunched up like a dog laying a crescent moon shaped poop.
Chin up is the secret. Looking down makes bad posture. Try it. I'm always right about OCD truck details.
I think of nothing else but details all the way to counting my breaths before I try a trick.
You gotta hear the POP and try to keep your back straight hop and then turn. NOT SCRAPED ON THE GROUND. I like to get my knee on the grip and grab it as close to the back wheel as possible.
Really boneless are best when you do them to forward.
Switch 360 boneless in transition like Cab in 1979 is totally acceptable but you still got to pop it into your hand... Also you gotta try to put it down on the tiles.
The biggest rule in transition is to you gotta put everything down high on the ramp. Jumping to flat and rocking the bottom of the ramp has nearly zero value.
I noticed all Powell guys got issues with this even though those guys got crazy tricks. They Rick the bottom of ramps with no let up in sight.
Whats up with that?
I'm in a bad mood. I got ripped the fuck off by an online purchase. This is why I never fucking do that. Now I'm kinda fucked.
I'm about to order shoes. I tried to get the same ones again but the shop has taken them off sale.
I blame t funk.
Gd. Robert Neil just asked to follow me. I love that cat. Unfortunately it's not the right guy.
I wanna fix that kids get up. He needs to get off that Burberry bullshit fashion and get down with me.
There's only one way to do it my way. All else is poser shit
-
I think bean plants definitely look nicer then a boneless on street, but just because of this post I'm betting on a resurgence of all street footplants.

yep, that one came to mind for me too--a thing of beauty
speaking of Mark Gonzales and frontside bonelesses
(https://media.giphy.com/media/VPEpgL11ODLYJhNsF4/giphy.gif)
by the way, Mark Gonzales is also one of the few people who do backside bonelesses like they do frontside--thrusting on their way up, instead of like a foot plant...he truly is one of the masters in this genre as well

beautiful and smooth indeed but neither of those are street bonelesses. I still contend that a boneless looks smoother when you can pop it into your hand and that's easier on transition...
As for being fat and lazy... for sure but i do try...

yeah, i figured this would be as good a place as any to simply talk about bonelesses in general. after all, this thread is supposed to be about whether some specific type of skateboarding is "ever acceptable?" what kind of boob would take that question seriously?
-
I think this thread is about the "street boneless." ::)
pretty simple, Deputy...

i have a fucking vicious street boneless. shit is tweaked to fuck. judge me til the cows come home, you spend all your time missing flip tricks on flat

Boneless for the transition.
And fastplants in the street.
If you find a nice spot -you can Ollie into fastplanting some planters/ pole / table.
Had that trick on lock 15 years ago - and it was fun - and I received some positive feedback on it.
Shoud try again - but I think I lost it.
Have done some flat street boneless last Tuesday.
Feel and look like shit. But I am old and rusty..

That’s a thing of beauty there sir but point of order, it’s a bean plant technically no?
Still, super styley as always!

I like backside boneless in the streets and fast plant anywhere for sure.
Anyone known for Texas Plant in the streets these days. That's the one I wanna see maybe
-
Mark gonzales grabs his bonelesses before he pops them. Can someone post a video of someone doing a frontside street boneless and popping before they grab? I think it's fine to grab before you pop but only if it's basically one fluid motion like gonz does it. The one at the start of krooked khronicles is so sick and makes me want to do one off a fat kicker. Also i think it's a trick that is dependent on body shape too, if you're short and stocky like Gonz or peter hewitt you can make them look rad but tall guys like me have to lean down a long way to grab it and we look goofy doing them, even in transition.
-
Also there is this boneless trick that ray barbee does in some old videos where it's like a half cab backside boneless on flat and it actually looks really cool. That would be a rad trick to see someone do on like a bump to bar or a similar obstacle.
-

Thanks. Yeah, totally a bean plant or a no comply bean plant but I always thought of it as a boneless variation like the stalefish version. but perhaps its not a boneless and a mere 'foot-plant' variation?

I think of it less of a 'pop' and more as scooping it into your hand, so you're not grabbing with four wheels still on the ground. but that's not easy off flat.
beg to differ about tall people looking goofy while doing them. jeff philips did some of the best on boneless on vert and BA has done some lovely ones onto handrails

I've heard that dystopia song in 3 different edits now.
No disrespect, RIP. He ripped and had a truly unique style.

I only pay attention to them if someone tries a boneless off the top of a roof or a truck, lol. I never relate to a skaters clip doing a boneless because Ive never been a boneless guy.

Chima did that boneless into that mountainous freeway bank. Was it a Transworld cover? That one has always stuck out to me. Can’t remember seeing him do another boneless.

I’ve been trying to learn them for a good minute now!
Anyway, Japanese super rat is the exception to this rule, meh who am I kidding it’s a dumb rule anyway, bonelesses rule no matter the terrain!

is it still a boneless if you grab mute? there was a "boneless" guy at my local when i was starting skating and he would do them down shit but they looked kinda weird to me and when i watched some of his crew old videos i realized he was grabbing mute the whole time. anyway bean plants are better, but i like a street boneless if it's done right by the right skater. i liked when ba did them into rails and his boneless lipslide on clipper. if there's a spot with very short run up which makes it pretty much impossible to ollie then a boneless/bean plant is cool. when emile did that 360 boneless after a long ass noseslide in the last polar video i was genuinely hyped on the trick because it came outta nowhere, that was cool too.

I think boneless can be any grab if your front foot propels you upwards but the classic frontside and backside are most common. Maybe a bit like how an invert is a trick but there's also all different kinds of inverts

This kid is one of my favorite skaters.
He like a cave man Rick flip pop over on a pretty big block I think. I could be wrong. All his other stuff is amazing too. I'm not wrong about that. He's a musician too.
Zane is awesome too.
That Eli Reed clip popped up on mark's channel again. Nollie pop boneless I think it's stale over a paper box or something. That's pretty fucked.
-
I seen that Bev kid do proper street bonelesses too. He's the best of the YouTubers I think.
He's got all the right gear. Wide board short wb. Fancy pants 9" mags which I want bad. And 60mm wheels.
All these things= good style. It's obvious to me he's going to skate forever. Watch. I'm never wrong usually.

yeah, I’m actually riding a Kento board at the moment, he’s still young so I have a feeling he’ll drop some really epic shit over the next few years! Great bag of tricks and super creative

Fun trick

I tried to throw a boneless down in a line recently, just dorking around, and I think I threw my back out. Don't underestimate it.
