Pretty much everything is wrong with my style - I feel like MJ in my head but whenever I've seen myself on film I look more like a Walrus attempting to breakdance! It gets especially graceful when I skate switch and the ol' mongo kicks in! I've long ago stopped caring though; I have fun on my skateboard and that's all that matters to me!  ;D

When I kickflip, my front arm comes up like I'm on a bicycle and making a stop signal.



When I land it usually comes down like I'm spanking someone's ass.

Once my feet hit the board my right hand makes a fist with my thumb tucked in it. Can't skate without it.
beating them is way the fuck easier, and it will give them character

I'm short and skinny, but I have a bubble butt. I'm basically built like Ernie Torres, but without the skill. Makes my skating look weird.

I don't mind my style at all, but I'm aware of the fact that I have floppy arms, and I sort of skate like Rodney Mullen (style wise, not trick wise by any means).

i skate like Leigh Peterson in that old foundation video where, after his part came out, he got demoted to b-team and soon thereafter started shooting photos of his bro's blazing his moms. i haven't gotten there, but i sometimes suspect that i skate like that. it doesn't help that when i was 8 i took ballet because that movie "white knights" came out.

good topic!


my arms are all over the place,my left hand makes this wierd claw look and when i do flip tricks i hang the flip foot almost completly off my board except for my big toe, i flip my board my board with my toe (i.e twinkle toes) the only thing good about that is i dont really use my ankle much on flip tricks, my flip tricks are mob ass fuck in the foot department and all in all i just dont flow very well ;)

My style screams major back problems and I try to tone it down with bending my knees to much, looks horrible. I like my push though..

i also suffer from the burns syndrome.

when i land things sometimes i lean too far back and when i land centered my knees come in really weird.

Whenever I do tricks I do this thing with my fingers where it looks like I'm pointing with my middle and index finger. I hate the way it looks in photos haha

getting old.  old man style. 
knock knee. not as bad as Salasnek.
That's awesome, I think he snowboarded too much.

As for me, excessive mobbage of the kickflips make the frontside flips a bit of a joke.
