Grabbing around the knee? and quiting the stink bug grabs
« on: March 11, 2019, 04:38:12 PM »
Any tips for grabbing indys around my knee like a tuck knee not a stink bug grab, I just cant help it like my brain is wired to stink bug grab, also I find roastbeef grabs easier than stalefish. I'm sick of it it's ugly and I gotta do something about it lol. Most of the skating I do is kicker ramp skating not tranny though.
Thanks

Dad you're embarrassing me

Bone it out so your shoulder is behind your hip when you grab. This will put your elbow behind your knee.

Practice on the ground.

In the grass while holding a fence

I'm serious, just grab that shit while standing still so your arm will know where to go when you're in the air.

Practice doing it early grab first. Once airborne really pull up and accentuate that tuck. Some people can tuck the knee immediately. Others, get airborne, grab first and then pull it into a tuck. I actually think method two looks better. Its fun as shit and makes FSAs feel way more secure.... I still stink grab at times though...  I did a FSA on a jersey barrier (skatepark not street so not super harsh) on the weekend and the knee would not tuck but I forgave myself...

Also I presume you meant FSA not Indy? If not, you've got a longer way to go...

Fuck this bullshit terminology.
