Landed a couple of hardflips by mistake one evening, trying to learn kickflips (on a freestyle board back in the last millenium). Thought it was whack and didn't consider it a trick. Still can't kickflip. At least I haven't tried in ages.

Another one I remembered: The first time I did a 180 out of a front 5-0 I got snaked by a bike at the skate park and he was going so slow I caught up to him mid grind on the ledge. I just kind of turned to avoid him and landed switch.

Tried a backside hurricane on a nicely waxed curb that had the dirt all dug out of the other side, so you could do slides on it.

Ended up doing 270 lip, then due to weird momentum, 270 out. The whole time I was like 'wtf is happening right now'.

The curbs at one of the many blacktop courts in Golden Gate park. Man I miss SF.

Agree with everyone about the half-cab crooks. That trick should be so easy but I could never get one on purpose.
