Most backside grinds are hard for me.

Most backside grinds are hard for me.

it feels more awkward trying to do a backside grind than trying writing with my opposite hand.

Yeah it does.I'm learning on small curbs how to hit it up though and ollie'ing over rails with my backside.Basically ollie'ing backwards

[kazbenson]

nollie fs flips and switch bs flips. just that trick is so annoying

[Tarela]

Varial Heels i only get like one a month for some reason...I gave up on Inward Heels cause i only see kids under 14 or adults over 26 do em i guess it skips a generation.....I think ill die before i learn how to do a proper Backside Crooked Grind i think im the only guy who never learned it as a kid, ive done plenty by accident (i back 270ed out of one from a bump to ledge on film once) but i cant do one purposefully...

[finknoos]

Nollie/switch kickflips, my back foot it just propperly regular, and my nollies fucked - they only look nice when theres some kinda shuv in there, but im prety sure that i will never do a nollie/switch flip

Thats a lie and you know it

[FrenchFriedClownFingers]

Ollie-ing into nose manuals.

I was just thinking that. I learned those lil nose pivot shits on a quarter pipe, got me used to leaning toward my front...too bad i have burrsitus my knees all swollen cant skate yet...

[jayceedeecee]

switch backside 180's.  I've got 180's in every other stance and direction, but for some reason going backside switch feels more wrong than anything.

[finknoos]

Reg front shuv, its the only Shuv i can't do

[ChileOrDie]

fakie pop shuv it

[mcpeepants]

fakie pop shuv it

I was just talking to someone about these yesterday. The only way I can do them is if I pop as high as I can, otherwise it does a half flip or I land primo.

[finknoos]

fakie pop shuv it

I had the exact same situation here for the longest time

[myrrh]

Ive been trying to learn fs tailslides forever, 9 out of 10 I dont slide.

Also regular bs bigspins with pop are impossible to me, scary to commit, and they always flip

Switch kickflip. Heel is ok, but the kickflip is a mystery to me. Can't flick that foot.

[dolphinstyle.]

sw fs shove-its... I hate them

[finknoos]

sw fs shove-its... I hate them

i found those really natural, regular fs shuvs on the other hand, i dont think ive ever done more than 1 in a day

Nosegrinds

No matter how hard I try, I can never get out of the grind with out my back truck clipping at the end.

[finknoos]

180 flips, the only one i can do is halfcab flip

[cancelled]

whatever happened to skwisgaar skiwsgelf?

i feel you on that but for popping out early on front nosegrinds.  i'll feel like i have the pop out, but i always land down in smith/smash my truck on the ledge.

vic, do you balance them or snowplow?  if you're not balancing, do it, it makes coming off the end no problem, just like a nose manny.

[MrDreamPop]

still can't get out of feeble grinds.  both ways.  always have to come out fakie

It it's a bit of the both, but I aim for the balanced. And I have this same issue for nose manuals so I understand why it isn't working out for me. Lately I've been practicing pop offs from the curb by doing little nose manuals at the end of the curb.

[Lorrain Mathews]

i cannot varial heel...ive done like 10 maybe..probably less.
switch isn't a problem, but regs wont happen

[Filip]

Smith and Feeble grinds...If U put a gun to my head, I still probably wouldnt be albe to do one.. I did a switch backsmith accidently, while learning switch backtails, best feeling ever:D

[lem]

Multiple flip tricks. I never had consistency before busting my ankle, and now it's just laughable. I would say varialheels are the worst, followed by nollie flips. But I have been getting better with bs flips. A little hope that I'll figure out the rest.

nollie heels and impossibles
