I’m a big fan of mirror lines, so like Arto does in Sorry, recreating the same line in the opposite stance, trading fakie for nollie etc…
But some tricks that I think look dope, Fakie Nosegrind 180 for instance (Brian Anderson does a rad one in Yeah Right) then look illegal the other way, so Nollie 5.0 180…
I’m not a fan of Fakie Smiths really but you see them, thankfully though you never see Nollie Willy grinds (the same trick mirrored…)
switch bs blunts are often used as a turnaround trick in a line rather than as a single trick. So I feel that we mostly see rushed, stubby little ledge scrapes as opposed to rad, long ledge-polishers.
Not talking about rails obv, but then we go back into that blunts on rail shit at the beginning of the thread.
Actually yeah, he’s older though so I didn’t think of him. And Actually, I though Ben Hatchell’s part in fun was amazing, assuming he’s still on powell.
I’m fine with any trick being done, it’s the intention of how it’s presented is what’s important. That trick is nasty but it’s cool he’s done it, just hope it’s not considered more than it should be.
I call out one of the young un’s I skate with for doing noseslide shuvs out…
But I do crook shuvs out from time to time.
I’m a hypocrite ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I do concur with what others were saying on back board, shuvs out. I hate that trick, which seems to be ‘on trend’ these days. It’s very rare someone will make it look smooth.
