I rarely click on his videos but they're mostly ok. The one thing that bothers me is his setup. He skates a long wheelbase and wide deck and his short legs make it look like a longboard. Makes every trick look like shit even though he's extremely good at skating
That's a good thought. I too agree that his wb might be too long. I think it's more about his trucks are too low. This in my opinion exaggerates lethargic pop.
I primarily rode low trucks back in the until I got a high set by accident and then went back to thunders that was about 48mm tall. Bad choice.
Dan's switch flips
I'm willing to bet he hasn't seriously worked on switch flips since he was a kid and boards was smaller and eventually was like whatever I got switch heels pretty good. They more g anyway. Fuck a switch flip.
I know how to fix ghost pop.
He's gotta utilize my Suddenly Unruly Kickflip Aerobic Discipline. To fix the switch flip and pull up and in for the big win.
You want your kickflips to look as close to what?
Your ollie's. This can fix it so they are formed exactly the same nearly everytime.
So
in a line you
Do switch Ollie then immediately where your feet land Do Not scootch like luan and do switch flip as it lays.
It's important not to set up perfectly because the way you've been setting up is obviously not working.
Yo
And when his tail does connect he's only doing half a flick and then lifts his flicking foot crazy high like he's
subconsciously expecting the board to hit his front foot like a FAKIE flip.
The exercise works tho. Everyone should try it.
If it's not working try a wider stance to slow down the flick.
With a wider stance you can really utilize the weight of the back truck to send it up into your proper flicking foot.
