Don’t you mean 50-50?
Perhaps he’s ice skating in the background
no, because it’s a ‘carve’ rather than a ‘grind’ - double axle carve is terminology from the original era.

I stand corrected, is there such a thing as single carve?
single axle carve would be a carve where only 1 axle is touching the coping so yeah - probably what you’d call a scratch grind

It’s all about body weight. In a double axle carve you’re fully in the bowl, carving fast and high. In a 50-50 you shift your weight up so you’re almost standing on the coping, almost doing an axle stall

Jono’s documentary on Morfa ‘Over Ply Wood’ is a good watch. He’s also behind the campaign for the new skatepark in Swansea that was contested by that utter Brian millionaire car dealer.

Nope, 50-50 is a grinding axle stall

Exactly. And a 5-0 is a grinding back axle stall, not just a grind.

I got my first board in 1976 so I guess you could say I’m from the original era
