I forget if I shared this dudes channel or not..
anyway, Pretty cool dude.
Has some crazy no comply handflip variations I can't get enough of.
He skates with alot of locals and they pretty much rip, good collab of styles.

cool tricks for the most part, but it's just so sloppy. Not in a good way like Mango's style...just kinda gross looking

Yeah.
I think the skaters he shoots varies if I remember correctly, just saw he posted something recently.
Gotta give him props though.. dude was still throwing down some crazy tricks.. and kept speed with some odd landings.
Maybe he was trying switch or something.

Not my thing, tbh. Sloppy landings, tricks were "okay" to say the least. I mean this isn't something outstanding, i know kids in my town that can throw down a part thats way better than this. I'm not a fan of jump of the board do some crazy flips with your board in hands and jump on it again...

Sorry for being such a "skate-nazi"...

Actually liked the video, lotsa good stuff and some good dudes in there. But I gotta be "that dude," and point out that it's not a no comply if both feet come off. That said I liked the vid and love grime music.

The off board hand flip shit was whack, but some of the other guy's stuff was cool.
Kickflip axel, double flip to back lip stall was awesome, did I name that right? haha.

Everything in graffiti park was cool but everything was ok I guess. Like falling said I know a lot of people that could put together a better part. But cool for most part

I get where you guys are coming from..
Just some guys having fun, doing their thing.
I like Harry's Skating because it's different.
The reference to no comply was his overall approach
He does no comply variations and hand flips or whatever he wants to call them.
He's done one where he actually throws the board into his foot, kicking it for the varial motion.
He's done no comply, tap with the hand for a 360 flip... flamingos..
just a really random fun style, I like to watch anyway.

If there's one thing skateboarding needs, it's more judgmental assholes.

Hey, I expect nothing less.
It's where skateboarding seems to be..
if you're not the "best" you're not doing much.
This is why I was tying progression into everything.. Do you get it now?

Personally, Love that he adds to every little thing.
Pivots out, 180, 360. Clearly has the hand flip varial on lock.
I'd like to see him doing stuff into grinds, he did a quick tail stall.
Hand varial to manny in that second video at the end.. Thought it was crazy.
Never seen anything like it and that's why I respect it.
Pushing boundaries within his own ideas. That's what the Pros are doing right?
Even if it's not what other people are doing per say, He's doing this thing progressively.
Adding to it every time I see it.
I never said these guys were top notch skaters.. do enjoy the constant content from locals though.
Some stuff I probably wouldn't do.. Inward heel, inward 360 heelflip and dropping into that bank up on the bridge support.
