Title: Great Fakie Skaters
Post by: TheFandangler on March 30, 2021, 02:40:26 PM
Watching that Bastien Sorry Era Retrospective reminded me of how many fakie tricks he did. Even if you take out all the cab flips, he does way more fakie flips and half-cab flips down shit than most people.

Who else skates fakie a lot or has done some legendary fakie stuff?

Obviously, Daewon is King of this conversation, but let's hear some others.

Danny Brady’s current run as fakie god has been the longest anyone has held that title.

All the no brainers have been mentioned. As far as 2nd tier, prime TK’s fakie rail skating was the most pro quality aspect of his somewhat limited bag of tricks.

Surprised no one has said Jerry Hsu. Was always impressed by his fakie moves in Bag of Suck. One of the first guys i can remember doing scary fakie stuff on handrails/hubbas. His fakie heelflip down MACBA also left an impression. Not many people were doing that trick in those days.

Jerry Hsu is a good answer here (not the most obvious since he's also very good at switch, but anywho). That fakie flip up the 3-stair before the sw 360 flip down.

Also Bastien, of course (the fakie flip to end his Lordz part!!!), and Daewon for tech.

James Hardy is a great fakie handrail guy, especially in Ride The Sky. I think I read in his Heckride interview that his favorite clip he's filmed is when he fakie 5-0's that silver rail at the end of a line?

BDK has this clip on instagram from 2 or 3 years ago where he fakie flips over a rail, but at an angle that looks like he could have grinded the rail instead frontside, the rail in front of him. Still one of the coolest looking tricks I've seen.

Jeremy Wray fs half cab Gonz gap and I think Carlsbad, Jake Johnson fakie heelflip down Brooklyn Banks stairs, Clyde Singleton et all, Dylan Rieder fakie 360 flip down those big stairs in Mindfield, and Austyn Gillette did that incredible half cab flip at that Hollywood brick bank.
I love how AVE only flips his board nollie, switch, or fakie.

Fakie skating done right is some of the most beautiful skating there is in my opinion. Puleo for example.

Fakie skating done wrong can be absolute horrible to watch.
