Jamie Foy drags his heel whenever he 5-0s rails

[Blueabyssofthisss]

This is surprising?  Have you seen what he does with his front truck?

Das pinch on a fs crook is way different than boogersliding a 5-0

[spooky electric]

I know this isn't exactly the topic, but scraping on a nose manual and still going always feels like an incredible achievement when it happens.

[Hyliannightmare]

Damn all my 5-0s never counted

[lysdexia]

if it doesn't count as a 5-0 if you drag your heel, then what trick is it?

[nopopguy]

if it doesn't count as a 5-0 if you drag your heel, then what trick is it?

I guess it would be a sloppy 5-0 or not considered a trick, same way as if you drag your heel on any trick... I wouldn't count a flatground trick if you drag your foot.

[FatGuy92]

He could drag his fat fucking cock on the rail and I'd still call it a make y'all tweakin

[ice nine]

Damn brody really deepthroat whistle blew dry snitched on himself in casual conversation for no reason

That awkward pause after said it all

The most flagrant aspect is the drastic reduction in speed, looking at the footage those 5-0s are comically slow for how fast they should be

this last point here. going slow and leaning back and forth to keep balance looks terrible. this foot pinch thing probably helps him stay on.

[elbarto]

Foy doesn’t use heel if it’s a big steep hand rail (nobody does u would get served) but if he’s gotta hold that shit and actually balance it, a pinch using his heel makes sense and works.

[matty_c]

Would it be easier to do a long ass fifty with one of those balance sticks you see cunts with at the circus?

[rawbertson.]

its ok you just have use your eyes and realize that a balance 5-0 and a heel drag 5-0 is 2 different things appreciate what they are think outside the box a loittle more dont get so caught up in trick naming conventions and shit a picutre says a thousand words and all that
when you tell someone about it you better say "yo guy it was a BALANCED 5-0" you better fuckin call that out!

[coldbrew]

a lot of folks in here who can't do 5-0's judging if a 20 stair handrail 5-0 "counts" is hilarious.

[exlurker]

Honestly grinding with less than two trucks is kinda whack. Congrats on grinding 50% less you damn ballerinas. No chance of tail drag either.

[dr.prestige]

When I do 5-0s on round rails I tuck the rail against the heelside wheel and tweak it crooked a little bit and if you're hauling enough ass and standing right above it it grinds just fine no heel drag necessary, with that said I skate flatbars and would never in a million years 5-0 a handrail unless I had a gun to my head and the hospital bills that would almost definitely ensue were covered by someone other than me. Also if you want to drag your heel if it makes you feel better why not, basically all of us didn't notice that shit until he pointed it out himself so why do we even care

i'm judging it:

heel drag - unacceptable
tail drag - acceptable

Well said.

A proper 5-0 (or a nose grind) should be balanced. End of. And doesn't matter if u can or cannot do it to know this or judge it! Most ppl that argue against it don't or can't balance that shit so go figure...

Same argument with daspinch crooked grinds - if it ain't done properly then it's not legit. Simple. Plus no on is saying u can't do it how u wanna do it but there are unwritten rules to this shit.

so 98% of every 5-0 and handrail nosegrind in the history of skateboarding doesn't count. got it.

[thebacker]

who?

[Baby on Board]

Everyone saying 5-0’s don’t count with a heel drag are the same people at the park screaming frontside overcrook

[boi-cuzudo]

I don't know about you all but personally I get a high off of when I 5-0 clean, no foot drag, tail scraping or losing balance... life is good isn't it? Can't wait to skate again...  :'(

Edit: 5-0 is my favorite trick...

Easily said by a person who's never taken a 5-0 down a steep rail. It's pretty damn near impossible to not make contact with your tail on steeper rails, that's just simple geometry. Crooked grinds on tight trucks often don't pinch, still a crooked grind.

Ya'll need to quit making up so many rules for skateboarding, I sure as hell didn't start skating in hopes of becoming a "proper" skateboarder.

[boi-cuzudo]

can we discuss 5-0 on pool coping? i think they look extra stylish when the skaters enters the bowl by doing a grind as loud as possible, even better when the tail smacks/slaps the coping when exiting the grind
