who has the best push
« on: December 16, 2022, 08:36:06 AM »
   I hate the way I push. It looks like i'm trying to stomp out a bug and I don't know how to dance. I'm actually a very good dancer and most of the time, i let bugs live. I've never been one to mimic another's style, however I would like some inspiration on maybe adjusting the way i pick up speed or slyly stabilize myself after landing.
   There are iconic pushers like your Mike Vs - who probably has more pictures of him skateboarding mid-push, than pictures of him doing tricks. Its whatever it is, but- is it stylish? I declare that it most likely isn't.
   I know some of you skateboard rookies might be thinking , "what in the fuck is this guy talking about?" But look around at your skatepark. You have your mongos, your straight leggers, the dancers, stompers, and your tippy toesers.
   Now what about you? What do you think? How do you push and what kind of push do you like? Is there a skateboarder out there you see and tell yourself , "you know what? that person has a really really nice push."
I love you

not the best all time pusher but this one single push has always stood out to me forever as my favorite single best push.

I like Nik Stain’s pushes.  He looks like a wild gazelle galloping majestically through a grassy field

-Kick your leg out in front of you
-Make contact with the ground parallel with your front wheels
-Squat slightly as you push
-Mind your arms, don't wave them around too much, maybe gently rest your front hand on your front knee
-Maintain contact with the ground until at least parallel with back wheels
-Let your foot follow through enough that someone behind you could see the bottom of your shoe

Now YOU have the best push!

Mike Valley of course. Didn’t he have almost an entire part of just pushing?

One thing that made Doug "Pineapple" Saladino extra special is that he didn't just "ride" a half pipe as has been in fashion, he actually pushed up and down it, which made for a really unique look when skating transition. So for this reason I have to say he has the best push.

What goes on with the arms/hands partly makes the push what it is. couple of weird ones, but they work:

sean young @ :50. It's a little strange, but I like it.


james kelch, love how he holds his arms out.
