That's gnarly and makes me feel inadequate cause I can't even 360 flip

ungzilla · « **Reply #14 on:** February 04, 2015, 11:48:57 AM »

dunno if its the angle or what, but that looks as large or larger than zack wallin's street kickflip. but that doesn't seem plausible? confused. amazed.

posguy · « **Reply #15 on:** February 04, 2015, 12:46:21 PM »

We should be on the lookout for a clip of this pretty soon I'm guessing

giggling at all the people who were so bummed on him "not skating to his potential" whenever that Converse pole jam video came out.

Camera angle makes the gap seem a lot bigger, it's probably around 6ft long, you can see the shadow on the small steps

ungzilla · « **Reply #22 on:** February 04, 2015, 02:09:52 PM »

i'm looking at it more closely, and this is some seriously tricky optical illusion type shit. he's definitely taking off and landing in the brightly lit spot, but he appears much closer to the camera. probably because he's so goddamn tall.

The gap is the same width at any given point in the frame. No way it's as big as Wallin's ollie/kickflip, but it's bigger than six feet for sure.

Gnarly as hell though. Rad he can have a gnarly wallie and a huge tech trick in the same mag.

Photoshop potential is high on this one

That's some great camera work.
