This is really rad. Remember COTG tranny is 90% balls 10% skill (no pun intended).

we need an arbitrator and/or a series of impartial judges

Get Danny Way, Vov, Rawb and Hanz to moderate.

Completely opposite for me.  I can get in every try...but getting out is like lightning striking.  Well not quite...but almost.

Getting in sucks for me, I tend to overshoot the deck and fall into the ramp face first.

Stoked to have CotG in the Barney ranks! Welcome brother! Care for an issue of Lowcard?

The most important thing to remember is to pick a good 80's montage song to help you progress. It worked for for Chris and Mitch in Real Genius, Danielson from Karate Kid and Rick Kane in North Shore. Imagine an inspirational song playing and then cutting over to jeremyrandall's frustrated first attempts to nollie heeliflip to COTG sizing up a small transition back to jeremyrandall flip the board with his hands looking in wonderment as he tries to figure out the flip back to COTG drop in to knee slide over to jeremyrandall getting a successful nollie flip as he is encouraged on by Penis Forehead guy and Fetus to COTG rocking to fakie and on and on until both of them accomplish their respective goals.

And then the day of the big showdown comes, but instead of going at each other throats they team up and use their newly developed skills to save the Rec center.

If this all turns out half as good as what you just wrote, it will definitely be worth it.

If nothing goes down, I get $50 bucks.  So at least that will go down.

i had the same problem( with blunt fakies) so i just pivotfakied everything instead. i recently relearned bluntfakies the way where you just popout fast and go right to manual on the way in, now i can do them everywhere without fear.

You dont want that fakie manny in. snap that fucker out. all four wheels touch down on the way back in, then try popping your pivot fakies back in.

Ah, I know a couple of cats that reel them in the fakie manny way, and even though they have them consistent it scares me every time. I tend to drop my front wheels first on mellow ramps, but all fours on steeper ones... one thing I can't do is keep both feet on the board when I pop them in, I either trail my back foot or float down with my board until I step on it. I actually mob blunts.

Oh, CotG... seriously, you're going to have some fun once you get used to it. You'll probably do crazy shit like diabolik... he does lots of nollie flip tech shit that I'll never get. At least no time soon.

It'll give you a boost in street skating too... you'll wind up a lot more comfortable with higher speeds than you are now (whatever that comfort level is). Nothing wrong with being an all 'rounder, either. Street and transition at this point and time are really complimentary.
