Most of this is good park demo skating but nothing seriously amazing for these guys; the reason I felt it necessary to post this is because I was amazed at the last two tricks of this clip by Ben Hatchell, such a good pickup by Jamie if he's really going to be fully on Zero. Back noseblunt nollie backside flip out?

Bennett grinds are lame! And 360flip 50-50 is ugly, you can do 180, kickflips, or maybe a fs shuv to bs 50 but "tech" flip tricks into 50-50s looks stupid.

no one "needs" to "stop doing them" because some close minded kid on a message board said so. Tom asta and Hatchell are crazy, and i'm down with bennet grinds.

He can do them on vert with ease. The kid rips regardless but not for that Tony Hawk go to demo trick. He could easily have done a rodeo 540 if he wanted to. The BS NB was way sicker.

He was trying a noseblunt bs flip out at tampa am on the quarter to wall thing.

He stuck it a few times and everybody went crazy

That was one of the best mctwists I've ever seen a "street" dude do.
And I kind of agree with the 360 flip 5050 hate. 2 dudes ended their parts with that trick in the flip video, and both did better stuff in their parts. It just seems kind of unbalanced, doing a tough trick into such a simple grind. It's all taste though, but for being such a blown out trick, it's not very cool.

that mctwist was perfect, wasn't expecting that at all. jamie thomas picked the right guy, his part in the powel video was amazing.
