Straight-on noseblunts

[HyperBeam]

if you care about skateboarding you know that going over the top on a nosebluntslide is not exactly kosher. call it a nosebluntslide sure whatever, but if you go over the top when could have gone from the side, it's unfortunate.

for the record i've done fs nosebluntslides on ledges, from the side, over the top, popped out, off the edge etc. never landed a bsnbs on a ledge. i've gotten into them coming sideways, slid them, never landed. moby dick shit.

That's^ one of my favorite Transworld parts. It was so refreshing at the time, too.

The stupid reasoning for calling it a noseslide becomes extra weird when you think about over the end to other tricks like backside nosegrinds or 5-0's, or even over the end to back tail - by that poster's reasoning that would be a front blunt.

Kyle Leeper is sick, that part was such a breath of fresh air when it came out.  Thanks for posting

[corto]

Simo Mäkelä does a proper one at 1:05.

Was thinking the same thing... does the positioning of the wheels on either the side or top of the ledge mean nothing? What about gapping to back lip on a flat gap? Or bs lip out of manual? Those are front boards? Or when you skate on top of a ledge up onto one right on top of it? Back tailing that is front blunt? Shits dumb

Smythe is the reason Lem disappeared??? Shoulda known.

[Hombreezy]

All due respect, but what are you smoking my friend?! No matter how they do it, it's still a noseblunt slide. You try hanging out on a session and telling someone to their face that they just did a frontside noseslide and get back to me, lol.

Also, on the one you noted - you gotta be shitting me to say that about that trick at that spot, really. Fucking gnarly and locked.

lem apparently has become a father and started to post some footage again about 2 months ago.

[rusty knees]

some of you guys are trippin'
it is most definitely a switch backside nosebluntslide.

anyone saying different is just trolling or fucking dumb

[SlapRhaters]

There cool but during the clip i'm always like " it woulda been cooler if"

I've got nose blunts down and i've never even tried coming straight on.

[Banned from the room]

I feel if Both wheels make contact at the same time it's fine.

I prefer over the ledge always. It's so much easier to pop out if you go dead on.

I cannot do front nbs dead on tho. I must attack from the side. I'd over turn and get my truck on. That's how I fucked up my tailbone when I was like 17.
Like 10 years later I had to have the sinus removed

[RoaryMcTwang]

The whole name debate here is... odd? A blunt / noseblunt is when you slide with your wheels on Top of the ledge with your nose/tail hanging over the edge. That’s it.

This particular one was dope (if not as sick as the one in Heckler’s profile) because even though he approached it from straight on he pushed it in properly so that the nose hung properly over the edge. The only ones that don’t count as far as I’m concerned are when you slide on the wheels in the middle of the ledge. Chris Cole did an atrocious one somewhere a while back.

[Skibb]

Simo Mäkelä does a proper one at 1:05.

Maybe it's a Scandinavian thing - Mika Edin does a fucking impeccable one at 1:30 in this old part from 2010:




edit: fuck it, here's a gif of it for your viewing pleasure

[HORSES]

Wow.

[Arto!Arto!WakeUp!]

Anyone calling this a noseslide can get fucked lol. This is 100% one of the best and most gnarly noseblunts ever done.

[Lloyd Braun]

Bobby dekeyzer does a proper pop in from the middle and out in the middle in his quasi & cons parts.

I am of the opinion coming straight on is ok, as long as it’s locked in/slides correctly. But if you can come from the side especially backside and more so SSBS, that’s G as fuck and adds points.

According to Skater XL, those are just noseslides, sooooooooo...

Holy shit, you weren't kidding. Can't believe no one immediately told him all he did was skid a nose manual across the middle of the ledge. lol

Friends don't let friends put this in a part.

I challenge anyone to find a worse example of a booger slide. This has to be the all time winner. It's not even turned sideways, lol.

i don't know where I'd find a pic online but there was a feature in transworld around late 98 or 99 of Daewon at a DVS(?) demo, where he does a fs nbslide to fakie across a picnic table but it's so far overturned it just looks like a fs180 sw manual nosedrag. Even the description took the piss out of the trick, calling it something similar

[Mike Oxwelling]

I'm not sure someone understands how short (in length) the pier legdes are/were

[Jerrys Kid]

What do you guys think of this ally-oop ollie over frontside bluntslide. Pretty sick huh?

[Gnarfunkell]

Obviously a bs noseslide up the rail.

[nolliecrooked]

Omg get da fuck out with this type of theory hahaha makes no sense, stop with over analysing shit, Just enjoy the tricks

Btw people that critizice busenitz curve bs noseblunt should be banned

Straight-on noseblunts are just bastardized noseslides.

[matty_c]

I like blondney but he did a pretty suss one backside, they saved that shit with the angle
The part where Kanye kept banging on about jesus

[TheFandangler]

Can you kickflip backside noseblunt or not? ^

In my 20 years of skating, I've never heard of anyone claiming that kickflipping into a slide/grind trick was easier than ollieing into it.

Go read the Billy Marks Thrasher interview from the mid 2000's. He says exactly that.
