Overcrooks on Handrails

[jest118]

Ooooh, I know how that is! Lone Wolf-headphone sessions are all ya got. The worst is when there's no spots to speak of either, yikes! So glad I was able to move back to Brooklyn lol.

I don't even have those. Stay at home Dad to a 3 year old and a wife who's 6 months preggo. I get zero session time whatsoever. In my last town I could at least take the kid down to the local shop and bs with people and watch vids. No skate shop in this town though. There's a Ron Jon Surf Shop but it's a tourist shop. It's a cool little town, just doesn't satisfy me on the skate side of things.

Really? Damn dude.... gotta love fakeskate in times like that! But its pretty awesome that you get to spend time with your kid like that tho.

People who play devil's advocate are stupid.

Overcrooks are a name, and they do exist, just like a fucking kickflip isn't a tweaked-out ollie.



THIS IS MY NIGGA. I FILMED THIS.

:15 is a real overcrook.

Oh definitely man. It's really a blessing.

Also, that vid of Chad Fernandez is a pretty good example. That's how he's always done his fs nosegrinds and that's what it calls them as well to my knowledge. He's an older generation though back from before people started using the term overcrooks.

we're talking about physics. I don't get why we ask skaters' opininon on such a serious subject

[bohemian]

what? a whole thread on the problems of skatelingo? and i missed it? daaaaaiaiimmn!

challenge: rewrite this in "todays" terminology; chineese ollie antiflip

first one to get it right have to state its origin and demise

[bohemian]

i'll give it a try, it's funnier than this retarded debate
pressure nollie hardflip ?

[bohemian]

haha close. chineese ollie is indeed a nollie. antiflip tho, was not hardflip (was not done yet at that time) but a heelflip, the opposite of a kickflip.. so.. it makes sense.. kinda hhaaa

so its a nollie heelflip.


any more obscure terms from back in the days you remember?
