definitely interesting, but like i said before, all the steps kinda take away from it. Anything more than one step in my opinion. But I can already see the progression and you gotta start somewhere
It's a rolling trick concept man
Gotta walk to keep speed..
otherwise I'd be at a stand still or bite it haha
I'll have to film some of these over a hip or something when I go to the park
up stairs and things they look a little better
not the best flat trick I'll admit but pretty fun
unless you meant something else?
I just don't follow don't mean to offend it's not a footplant
im sure right now you need to walk to keep speed, im just saying it is possible to do these tricks at that speed with just the one step. For example that first trick, the step off nosegrab thing. Damien's got those one step at pretty crazy speeds, like down hills kinda speed. Didn't mean to come off as a dick or anything, you're a cool dude, just in my experience less steps has equaled more fun
It's all good..
Just think I have to disagree here not quite as concerned for my steps
and really have a hard time grasping what you even mean
how can you possibly keep speed if you're doing one or two steps?
You skate how you want as long as you're having fun. That's the end game right there.
What PLG is saying is right now with all the steps you're doing to continue the trick it's making things look stilted and resulting in no flow.
From a visual standpoint with me as the observer I see you overthinking the tricks and walking them out seems like a coping point to reach the result you want.
This was most obvious near the end in a different way when you did the knee pop half-flip to like 4 clockwinders, then had to wait for the board balance so you could then drop it back under you.
You have to get the tricks more second nature so that when you for example do a half-ollie grab (Pop if you wanna call it that) to 360 board varial (hand rotated KF, HF, IH, etc) and back on that it becomes one continuous motion.
The pop to running tail stalls I don't quite get because you don't need all those steps since you're not going into a slide once you hit the stall landing.
Overall, I like seeing things that are different. And like I said as long as you're having fun then that is all that counts.
For the observer you just got to get these things a bit more dialed in so it looks less like you're just flinging the board and hoping it lands under your feet.
Hope this doesn't come off as rude, just offering some insight.
