just caught up on all of this thread.

In summary everything is illegal.

Can we turn it around? What IS a legal trick?

Anytime you go skating and have fun (cos we’re all just fish in a sea of irrelevant opinions anyway aha)

There are pro looking tricks and there are tricks that us normal folk do and most are illegal.  
I do blunt rocks (hoepfully as tastefull as possible) because I have not mustered up the courage to relearn to pop back in normally but that trick is def illegal. I do so many illegal tricks but for me and us in general, they are fine, we are not putting our shit out there for kudos, so don’t worry, illegal tricks are fine, it’s just we don’t want to see pro’s doing them. They all can obviously but having decent trick selection when it comes to presenting their shit is important.

yeah that’s what I think but not on tiny mini ramps and if a good skater is going to do one it’s got to be on the right things, we proles can do them wherever we like. I’m happy to get slated for anything I do, we all should.  
But also be allowed to talk shit on others too.

A mini ramp trick I do when no one is looking is a feeble stall whipped round to a backtail.

Fully illegal.

Speaking of blunt rocks, I had a few blunt to feeble fakies last night, I have no idea how they look, probably nasty as fuck but they feel pretty good.

Ooh that’s one. A frontside revert out of a ridden into tailstall. A front tail fakie as long as it’s slid is probably OK.

i assume you’re on about ben c? remember being a proper youngin and seeing him do a blunt rock fakie on the road and i have no idea how his board didnt snap! can always look good if it’s proper fast but any lip tricks or i guess stalls where they take forever to go back in look grim.

@Les_Zeppelin bs smith to bs tail feels shockingly good especially when you get a decent grind/slide

Ok, here’s one for ya’ll

First line, second trick. Illegal or not illegal? My take is, under normal circumstances, illegal. But this is so natural looking and god damn stylish, i’m allowing it.

Really? Could’ve sworn it flips. I don’t hate 3 shoves but yeah somehow it’s worse.
