i still find it odd. i couldnt do a kick flip to save my life but ive got switch flips on lock, ive even thrown them down a couple sets. anybody have any idea why this is or a trick cant do regular

HoovUCDC · « **Reply #1 on:** December 05, 2008, 03:47:08 PM »

i think fs flips, fs heels, and varial heels are a lot easier switch than regular.

On ramp I can do frontside slasher grinds to front revert easier switch than regular.

GIRL Workshop B · « **Reply #3 on:** December 05, 2008, 05:04:09 PM »

I used to only be able do varial heels switch but I got them regular now.

sw front biggies are easier on flat for me than regs, but for some reason ive only done it down sets regular.

anblue go die. you already know that i can only kickflips switch.

City of Drunken Totems · « **Reply #6 on:** December 06, 2008, 07:25:50 PM »

90% of my tricks are that way, but i cant push switch to save my life... im basically a travesty on a skateboard.

Nollie and Switch Inward heels are easier than regular. Switch backside bigspins are way easier than regular.

Tuna · « **Reply #8 on:** December 06, 2008, 11:18:05 PM »

switch frontside flips

JonnyG · « **Reply #9 on:** December 07, 2008, 02:07:08 PM »

a lot of tricks, like sw crooks, sw bs 360, sw fs 360, sw fs bigspins

Canuck · « **Reply #10 on:** December 07, 2008, 02:14:19 PM »

my regular heelflips are the wackest shit you've ever seen, talk about crop dusting... on the other hand my switch heels are pretty good. I consider my switch heels to be my regular heels.

pop shuv revert is way easier switch

Gest · « **Reply #12 on:** December 08, 2008, 07:26:33 AM »

a lot of ledge/rail tricks i.e. nollie front nose, nollie front board

Silent Bob. · « **Reply #13 on:** December 08, 2008, 07:48:15 AM »

Plenty; I find I do nollie 360 flips and nollie varial flips way easier than folly ones for example, same with front shoves -whilst lots (like front noses) just feel nicer switch. Sometimes I think it's just to do with the way your body works - like I find backside stuff easier switch than regular- andsometimes it's easier to land 180 stuff going forwards

EricLogan · « **Reply #14 on:** December 08, 2008, 08:39:20 PM »

bigspins both ways, big flips, big heels, tre flips, frontside flips, bs flips, and as of late, hardflips

I can do fs flips every way but regular (fs halfcab, nollie bs, sw fs), and I can do tre's switch and fakie and even fakie bigger flips (halfcab+treflip?), but not regular or nollie. it sucks how weird my trick bag is.

cab flips and nollie cab flips are easier than not flipping them

Canuck · « **Reply #15 on:** December 08, 2008, 09:20:17 PM »

apparently I can pop nollie frontside 180s better than halfcabs... thats fucking stupid... I'd rather have halfcabs

switch front shuvs > regular front shuvs

which blows because i always get a letter on everyone's warm up front shuvs in skate.

im the same way man, and even with backside too. shit pops a bit better switch for me, maybe cause im actually trying

ccc333 · « **Reply #21 on:** December 09, 2008, 08:43:07 AM »

I can nollie heel better than just a regular heel flip. My regular heelflips feel mobbed or rocketed so I never do them.

Landshark · « **Reply #22 on:** December 09, 2008, 10:15:14 AM »

180's, frontside shove/nollie bs shov

I'm the opposite, I got them pretty good fakie and normal, but I can't even try to flip them switch and nollie.
tricks i got better switch and nollie thog, nollie and switch varial flips, sw fs big on flat at least, sw fs noseslide, and I feel more comfortable sw flipping down a little drop or something, my normal kickflip is really shitty

jrock · « **Reply #25 on:** December 11, 2008, 10:13:37 AM »

kickflips, heelflps, backside flips

alienlurkshop · « **Reply #26 on:** December 11, 2008, 06:42:08 PM »

frontside 360s are easier switch for me

Gomez · « **Reply #27 on:** December 11, 2008, 07:51:06 PM »

tons: heels, fs flips, inward heels, varials, front pops, front 180s down stuff because you roll away regs, bs heels, bs flips, and some more i can't think of. the good thing is that i can do almost all of those tricks regular, can't bs flip, varial, or front pop though.

Same. My regular fs shuvs are so inconsistent and my sw front shuvs i have almost every time.
