I learned front 3's on a pyramid hip. It's so hard for me. I just kept hitting this wall at the 180 mark. I couldn't turn no matter how hard I was trying. Then I started winding up and throwing my shoulders, it felt so uncomfortable- but shit, it worked! It was the coolest feeling ever! Can't wait to try them on flat!

I give so much more props to Jeremy Wray and anyone else who can front three- insane shit, it's so hard.

I got a couple decent kickflip frontside nosegrinds last week. One of those tricks I always love seeing but never thought I'd do. Felt really good.

Bs hurricane stalls on qp, have had fs ones on lock for years but no backside until yesterday, felt so good! Next thing is to figure how to grind that shit...

sw bs 180. this was hit and miss and has become a no brainer to the point it feels better than normal ones. i kind of overturn them a bit and have to dance em out a little bit. trying to get a sw bs 360 down before summer ends.

Frontside 5-0 frontside 180 out and back crooked grinds finally.

Toydivision · « **Reply #3968 on:** July 25, 2016, 04:53:04 PM »

halfcab crooks, sometimes my body ends up twisting around and accidentally goes back to fakie.

Chapingro · « **Reply #3969 on:** July 29, 2016, 01:04:59 AM »

frontside tailslides. i had the hardest time even popping and landing the tail on the ledge, but i had a revelation one day where I started trying to just land into a tail stall. Once i got this regularly I started going faster and faster toward the ledge and eventually today I locked into the tail slide a number of times. stoked to keep working on it and eventually work on the backside tailslide.

planman · « **Reply #3970 on:** July 29, 2016, 01:18:05 AM »

Haha I actually came here to post that I just learned front tails. Idunno why I never tried learning them before

Murray Hewitt · « **Reply #3971 on:** September 05, 2016, 05:00:44 AM »

Learned pop-shuv-it 50-50 bs 180 out. Haven't learned a new one in a while. Feels great.

Krooked antihero · « **Reply #3972 on:** September 05, 2016, 06:33:01 AM »

Slappy ss crooks, so easy when you figure that shit out, dunno why i kept struggling with it for years. Might be my first trick ever that after landing first one i was able to do them every try.

roba · « **Reply #3973 on:** September 05, 2016, 07:19:12 AM »

nollie inward heels

Cab flip back tail bigspin out.

Switch fronstide and backside wallrides on a barrier.

skating barriers is the most fun.

skate_spbr · « **Reply #3976 on:** September 06, 2016, 08:01:22 AM »

fucking heelflips, it stresses me out how much they come and go for me, hopefully they'll stay on lock from now on

Eric ricks · « **Reply #3977 on:** September 06, 2016, 08:04:43 AM »

Its gross, but I had to learn switch pressure flips

Ive tried for 20+ years and its the ultimate mindfuck(at least for me)

I finally learned them just before I tore my acl

Karma at its finest

Nollie 180 switch crooks. I find it so hard to pop out of any crooked grind, can only drop of the ledge when it ends of 180 out, very frustrating.
[close]

Did you get them by accident while doing nollie tails? That's how I got them, and really the only way I can still do them. Just an over turned nollie tail. I also have to fall off the end. No hopping out for me.

i pop out these back to regular without thinking, lucky me ^^

Ugh, I was trying nollie 180 switch crooks for an hour straight last night. I got into and grinded 10 or so for about 3 feet, but I just couldn't get out of any of them. Falling off or popping. I landed about 20 fucking nollie tailslides while trying them.

Rotate those shoulders more and you got them

Did a few casper to fakies on a bank today, they weren't super legit but they felt cool.

NoComply180 · « **Reply #3982 on:** September 07, 2016, 05:15:15 PM »

About 6 years ago before taking a skate intermission I could do inward heels consistently. Today I got them back relatively frequently (1/5 or so) and landed a few fakie inwards as well, which I've landed maybe 1 of before. I think I find them easier than regular inwards now.

Really want to get them on a bank

you're 39? i only met you once but i thought you were way younger. i was also in the middle of an acid trip at the transworld awards that night.

I've thought about trying this trick numerous times but always forgot about it. Today I learned a trick where you ollie into a nose manual but right away, basically instantly do a nollie shove it. Dumb, but super fun and I want to do it to manual on a manual pad, or across something nosebonk style.

ducky darnsworth · « **Reply #3986 on:** September 12, 2016, 10:16:50 PM »

i kinda got some 360 pop shove it action going on, also kickflips out of manuals, and hardflips, bigspins, and frontside flips are still being a bitch to land, my bum ass back leg won't land on the board

I really should get around to learning hard flips, they're such a rad looking trick.

In over 30 years of skating, no trick gave me so much problems as a switch BST. I can finally say I got one under my belt. Time to take it on something higher in the streets. Got my fakie crooks back too.

Just saw this, oops. Nope, I was actually trying them. I think of it as a nollie tailslide but before I lock in I dip my right toe down(I'm regular) and that helps the truck lock into the grind, then I sit on them and hope to grind more than 2 inches and roll away haha. Can't even do this one anymore, was fun while it lasted.
