Thanks bro!🙌

hanks! Definitely, the phone angle is the best-wish I could make it a picture.

Thanks, Kieran! You guys had a fun session in your last vid-love that place. Really wish I could get over that way!

So much fun just letting my mind wander and finding random things at the park!

😂 you definitely inspired the thought of doing fly out/air outs. Started trying them, for some reason I was a bit scared of them not sure why. Now I'm hooked on them!

I was dreaming about the bs or fs 180 it...hopefully when the snow melts here I'll give it a go. For tails stalls, its on transition right? If so I'll try and whip up a video in the next few days to give you the visual and explanation of what works really good. I have the garage mini now so should be able to put something together. You're basically there based on your session 3 video.

@@OldBrokenSkater nice one dude. 🤘

Thanks bro!

🙌 great to hear!!!

Thanks!!! Looks like you've been having some fun in the snow! Front board on the rail was 🔥

🙌

🙌

Thanks bro!!!

Thanks a bunch! Lots of fun skating that day and glad we got another skater to skate with. Hoping this snow melts quick!

Thanks Wes!!

The frontside 180s are super awkward, which is strange since I could do them so crispy back when I was younger. Really, really want to add flips to these, but I gotta keep doing mobility-type exercises to bring my knees a bit higher. I’ve tried a few here and there and need like 2 more inches of height. Need those young knees again 😂

Thanks, Simon! Hope you're doing great and back to riding! I've got the last part of the video dialed in pretty solid by now 😂

@ 🤣 your absolutely smashing it!! (Tricks not falling that it) I’ve not managed to get out and actually skate for 5 weeks but i feel almost ready and taking the plunge in the morning. I kinda hyped myself up watching my ‘best of 24’ vid and remembered I used to skate 🤣 then seeing you flying around was the last straw!!! 👊🏻👊🏻👊🏻

I'll try to keep adding drills to some videos. They're pretty helpful for developing more board feel and just spending more time on the board. Don't worry about progressing fast-if you're having fun while you're doing it, the progress will come.

Yeah, that's true, it should be the main goal, thank you

I don't know what happened, but for some reason, these just started to click. The FS ones are now my weak ones, which is strange since I had them good back in the day. I hear yea on the warm and dry, we're about to get 4 to 6" of snow, and it's been frigid. Finally making progress on getting basement area setup, thanks for the inspiration!!

@OldBrokenSkater nothing beats time on the board, helps bring it all together... I didn't front shove for years now they're on halfway lock

Been chasing the front shoves, love when you did them to 5050. It looks soooo steezy!

Thank you!! 🙌

Very welcome!!!!

🙌 Love that I can help however I can!!! Now that I finally have an indoor ramp and space to skate at the house, I hope to share more as I find tips. Hope the weather’s treating you well! Looking verryyyyy cold over that way. We're about to get 4-6" of pure snow 🫠

Im down! Once the snow is all gone again and it's above 28 we definitely getting a session in!

Thank you!!! Been loving the hips lately, super fun...as long as they aren't to steep 😂

That's a super good tip and a great way to reframe, especially since we should be trying out switch 😎. For my looking and not looking, I've been really focusing on spotting the landing for both. This one is a struggle for me-sometimes I do it, sometimes I don’t. But you can definitely see the differences, even on landed ones, between when I’m spotting my landing and when I’m not. Interesting thing-when I started doing them, I used to always look directly at the board. As I got more comfortable, I’ve been able to try and spot the landing. However, if I look at my board now, I don’t even come close to landing it. So strange how all of that works. Thanks for the feedback!!!

Thanks! Been really geeking out over movements, positioning, and just overall how things work. Funny-when I was younger, I never gave it a thought, but now it’s like the key to unlocking new tricks and evolving current ones.

Anytime, man-I'll keep sharing more useful stuff as I find it. So many different little positions and foot placements. That's why we always gotta try different ones until it clicks, ya know.

Super rewarding trick. I used to be so good at them and could get them high. For some reason, this time around, I do way better with the BS ones. I've been loving the hip and bank to flat-it gives so much confidence. I think it's because you're essentially giving your ollie a boost. Highly recommend it! If not the hip, definitely try the bank to flat.

Thanks!!! 🙌

🙌 anytime!!! Hope you have the hamstring recovered soon!

Good song! You just brought me down memory lane. Used to love Atmosphere. I would always listen to "Yesterday"-that one was such a banger for me.

First off, congrats on losing the weight, man-such an incredible achievement!! 🙌 Awesome to hear you got a board too; it's been so epic to skate again! I think in time the gravity fear will subside, but it'll probably resurface when you start trying to act like a kid again 😂. I always gotta keep the kid in me in check-he didn’t have as many bills as I do now, lol. Glad Fat Dad sent you over; I love skating with him and just talking skate. Such a super nice and humble dude.

Thanks, bro!!! 🙌 Appreciate you watching!

You definitely have this trick in the bag! Love trying to break it down with slo motion-feel like it makes more sense and provides more to take away.

Thanks! Let me know how it goes and if anything helped out. Hoping to get some transition tips for tail stalls and rock to fakie sometime soon.

@OldBrokenSkater definitely need some tail stall advice, I've been battling that one for ages. 👍

Ha I wish!!!! I'm just recently piecing together a switch Ollie. Did the regular clips "mirrored". I find it hard to watch regular footed tips videos and wished they just mirrored one or two clips, this was my attempt.

@ Ah i see, with your skills I wouldn’t have questioned it ✌🏻

Thank you!!! Been trying to do kickflips like once a week in hopes they eventually come back. Much better than chasing them every session I will admit. Hopefully you're back to it soon!!! Speedy recovery!!!

Super useful and very helpful in the long run to progress! Keep at it!!!

Thanks! Now I gotta get my front shuvs, such a hard trick for some reason.

@@OldBrokenSkater Yeah I can't get my head around front shuvs, I've never even got my feet close to landing one 😆

Same here! For me, one day I can spin it but can't commit, then other days it just absolutely will not spin anywhere near my feet.

🙌

Thanks!!! Hopefully it makes sense!

Thanks, bro! Been loving pop shuvs; now gotta figure out its evil twin, the front shuv 🫠.

Thanks!! Was the last of the warm weather; progress seems better with no winter gear on 😂. Glad it inspires you! Really like the idea of being able to skate it all since we'll be in a park most of the time. Can't imagine I'll get to many actual street spots, ya know.

You wanna see me bust my arse on that thing 😂 Tried a couple times to slappy it-it's a pretty steep entry for me. Thinking maybe some nose slides or even tail slides when I start trying those.

Thanks!!!! The cold came in quick-got spoiled with the warmer December days. Hoping to get legs/knees higher to clean up the kickflips a bit. Been doing box jumps and a few other things a couple of times a week. Let’s see what happens! 🤞

Appreciate it 🙌

@ smooth* …obviously

I gotcha no worries!

Thanks!!! Something satisfying about landing pop shuvs, there just fun when they click.

Omg I know!!! This whole week looking like it wont get above 30, need the 40 degree heat wave or just no wind. Hope you're feeling better!

Thanks bro!!! I'll be doing them indoors for the next week, bit of a winter freeze up cheer. Stay warm!!
