in the 2010 edit a majority is Boston footage with a few california sports from a trip i took. all the park footage is local stuff. and yeah that is Maloof NY in the second video. I go to St. John's University in Queens, and that park is literally 1 mile from my campus over in Flushing
So jealous lol flushing is so damn sick. Skated there only once last year and filmed my buddy doing a fs lip to switch crooks over the gate... https://instagram.com/p/0OLMAQrIPX/
I've been meaning to check it out. Next time I'm in NY for sure.
Big ups on the no comply up the set Saunders, makes me want to go try em haha.
Old school board too? Niice.
So stoked lately. Inspired by this awesome community.
It isn't much yet but sayin fluck it call this part one.
Part two will be on flat ledges and me investing in an iPhone tripod LOL

Cheers dudes, keep it rollin.
that was pretty cool to watch antwan, i am going to break out a new board in a couple minute, might warm up with that kind of thing
Thanks man. Still trying to get them perfect haha.
Almost wonder if it would be easier to skip flat.
Might hit up the park this weekend if the weather stays nice.
Got quite a few variation ideas already.
new one from the other day.. been wanting this one for awhile. ended up having to take the first land because my phone died and i had to head back to cape cod
did a fun one today. no comply 180 fakie 5-0 revert

Yeah, I'm familiar with the boneless motion.
More of a stepping stone to get used to flipping out.
If you remember a ways back I was messing with caveman darkslides when I was staying in downtown Cincinnati.
Oh yeah, you had a bunch of decks and you reshaped them too right?
You still skating at all? I fell off for a while but don't remember seeing any footy.
That big boneless on the quarter is what I remember seeing.
You should try them. If only to expand on your caspers. No comply half flip is a cool thought too.
I don't think pop matters, could be wrong but my success on video appears to be rocking the board over and jumping.
That's the thing though, you can rock because of concave and pop, mine just lays flat
I learned fakie fs smith kickflip out in the mini as well as hardflip nosestall and hardflip rock to fakie
BREAST MILK MADE ME STRONG
I mean, have you tried? Haha
If anything I feel like you could use your shoes against the trucks?
Just in theory.
I've also picked up a few Walmart decks in the past. You could set it up nice with proper equipment.
They are cheap boards like 20$ here, traditional store with a sporting goods section.
I don't know what stores they have there or how the prices translate so just explained it anyway haha.
Sounds like everyone is ripping.
We still never did that fluck it in real life skate collaboration.
Would be sick yo! Include everyone too. BMXers, Bladers. Sorry if that term is off Baha I'm not hip with the lingos.
Yeah I can't even kick my board over when it's upside down. I haven't really skated much lately. But the few times I have I've noticed I didn't really lose much which is comforting. I'm glad you're still ripping, hopefully you can get some footage
Dropped a link in the comfy couch section. Couple trick ideas, just on flat though.
My plan is to get some filming done for sure. Might be a little while though.
Any reason you aren't skating pawn? Just busy?

Mostly just due to my work schedule this summer Antwan.
Afternoon/evening work which would force me to skate first thing in the morning before work or really late at night, not a fan.
That and just less free time and different priorities that come along with getting engaged and living together. I've focused more on guitar in my free time.
But I'll be back to regular day shifts soon though so I'll definitely be skating more in the fall.
you just made me realize i mostly skate at night now, less people in park/street, less light to, but i guess it just make it more hardcore....
got to skate with an old friend of mine, the dude didnt skate much this summer cause he got an open fracture riding the bowl in april, so after surgery and stuff he just got back at it, anyway
i landed a switch rock to fakie (or to nollie ?) on a full size concrete jersey barrier, really good feel to it, pretty raw...
i sometime hope i had a camera, or a buddy that got one, then i would have to skate more in the day to get good light,
i will get back there and try to at least take a pic,
Haha. I would like to say I'm busy but truth is im fortunate.
Got free time at the end of most days. Trying to get motivated.
Went hunting and found a decent little line. Didn't end up doing it but did work on a trick I've been wanting to expand on. Switch no comply body varial. Did it over a gap, wasn't perfect but I still get stoked when I'm close.
Included a funny ass bail. Fell a lot baha.

Actually going to break on filming for a while till I can landscape with some kind of tripod.
Angle is terrible can't even tell what I went over.

havent really skated over the last couple months but did anybody see the whole NBD contest that berrics had going? saw some crazy ass shit and the when they announced the winner was Jake Blue i was like "huh...sounds familiar". is that the same jake blue who was made fun of on skate for a while?
IM A BOSS ASS BITCH
I looked for the contest after you mentioned it.
Couldn't find much but one dude took freestyle and combined it with ledge grinds.
Which was badass. I was wondering when someone would expand. So much potential.
And chris cole is just a monster. Awesome tricks.
I just got back from skating.
I like to share my attempts if only to get people thinking.
Took the boneless half flip darkslide to a planter today.
I know people mentioned it being a grip tape killer but it's no joke.
I've also cleaned up the steps. It's a lot quicker with a legit boneless.
I didn't get a make as the spot demands a shuv type flip out.

almost landed those funky slappy front nose front 270 out things. couldnt ride them out tho

I remember a jake.. Ha.
Wouldn't be surprised honestly.
There were some rippers messing with the skate games.
So I've been working on getting my stamina back.
Something I'm finding useful is a straight up concrete track around the lake here.
Just cruising and getting some top speeds. Makes me wish everything was that smooth rolling.
Ideas as of late:
Legit boneless flips. None of that multi-hand stuff, just starting the fliptrick and grabbing it.
Finishing the flip and jumping on all simultaneously after the hop.
Momentum cavemans, using an object on a henge that goes back and then forward again.
A fence door being my object.
Powerslide flat shuv hippie jump.
A tree at the track looks perfect.
I also really want to bring it back.
Thinking about stuff like streetplants to tail slides or even just manuals.
Need to get Wallies going again too. I was consistent for a while.
The beauty of it..
Starts as an idea, just time until success.
That mindset is sick. If you've experienced it you can apply it to anything.
