What i really like about mark is that despite being obviously extremely talented and able to skate anything he choose to skate alot of stuff that really rattles around your brain. So many spots even in this little video where the trick and spot go together in such a perfect way you can feel like a spark go from your brain to your feet.
I also really enjoy these sorta videos cause he looks so much more relaxed. I don't think his style is as bad as some people beleive but he definitely looked like he was trying to hard during his soty push. Sick shit in those videos but alot of it felt forced obviously I get it but I'd rather watch him do shit like this. He looks like he's actually having fun and enjoying himself and he's doing some really cool shit in the process. Verso was rad but this actually made me want to skate.
Yeah agreed, with almost every line i have to rewind a couple of times just to digest what is actually happening. He skates just outside the edge of expectation so almost every trick is a little surprise. Something to titillate the senses, the front board hurricane pop off for example, really exciting for such a 'simple' move.
As funny as his 'lacks tastefullness' comment his, I must confess he has exquisite trick taste.
the treflip 50-50 bs 180 out on the low step for example, that back 180 just gives it that extra oomf, that elevates it from 'eh' to 'ooh'
