Well, to be fair..
Wouldn't FS Nose Grind, FS Overcrooks just be the side of the rail you approach?
It may not look like much of a change once you're in the grind but
I would imagine it's more difficult to approach the other side of the rail
and tweak the other way if you're unfamiliar.
Thus labeling them front side, back side?
Also, Not entirely sure but I'm using what I know and trying to learn here aswell but
I think that's how you get the term fs bs blunt, etc.
Approach frontside, turn back side blunt.

Yeah fs and bs refer to which part of you is facing what you're about to grind. So your body turns frontside for a backside boardslide. But you turn frontside for a frontside lipslide.
My whole point wasn't necessarily stuck on the fs/bs stance, it was that no one's ever done a frontside "nosegrind" straight on a rail. So the term "overcrook" is implied backside, just like a Suski grind.
I understand what you're saying now
Suski grind.. 5-0 tweaked out?
But this looks frontside to me

Yeah, almost a back tail but still grinding on the truck.
The thing about a bs overcrook is that it's gnarlier than a bs nosegrind. BUT if someone did a straight fs nosegrind, it'd be way more impressive than the way malto did.
I feel like I might have seen one in a video at one point..
Might be mistaken though.
LB is like a pedophile playground, either old bastards or little kids.. -adda
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it has been done before. There's tons of skaters out there in the world someone has to have done it, video or not
I bet Malto has a clip of him doing it somewhere hahaha
