Andy Anderson's Secret To Landing Every Trick

[@thecougarprince]

"im tripping balls right now." This little video was full of so many hilarious quotes. "Did i let my country down? What does this mean, should I be proud, is pride a sin."

[@rustysarkela7754]

Love how Jason and Tony make no attempt at gate keeping this kinda thing. Progress for the community is good for all

thats because tony and jason are old school, only gate keepers you see are the young lot

Tony Hawk made how to skate videos on VHS tapes when I was a kid. I rented them from Hollywood Video. He's an ambassador for the sport.

[@cameronroberts4296]

I teared up when they all celebrated him dropping in by himself. Honestly, the first time you drop in and dont fall on your face opens up a whole new world.

I have never been much of a skater but what I wouldn't give to hang with this gang for a weekend. It makes me want to be. The passion, energy, and positivity is so refreshing for a middle aged desk bound creative guy. And I love the way Andy's mind works. Similar to my own but he seems to have harnessed his to a Zen like point. Thank you for sharing.

this guys got the same gift I have I call it the "Acoshik state of mind" its where you can acess anything and everything it gives you the tools or info or what ever you need to capture the moment. Brenne Brown had a ted talk about this exact concept. I have been writing a tool book on how to achieve this state as fast as possible, because its critical to achieve the goat moment or gift. Been writing it for about 15 years because I want to capture all instances of it happening I gotta teach it as many different ways as possible once's its complete almost too its a game changer that more need to know.

[@Ha1rD1aper]

i've actually seen a physics skater on youtube doing something similar. the physics of what's going on is actually pretty interesting, and i think even he didn't fully get it lol.... at rest the board is essentially balanced, which puts the axis in the direct center of the board. although, when you pop it puts momentum (inertia) into the board unevenly. which temporarily puts a weight (inertia energy) imbalance into the board. which changes its axis points. i.e. one truck has more momentum (inertia) than the other, so (Einstein) one is heavier than the other. which lets you leverage the "lighter" side up for an ollie by putting something (like your foot) on the other side of a lever. only thing different from the lever motion of the pop is that the front truck is moving. things like hardflips are different, because you are not stopping the rotation, once past vertical the momentum in the truck is going at an angle that physically wants to travel away, and has to accelerate the slower (lighter) moving truck. which causes it to lift. same with good BS pop shuvs. rotation force pulls the back truck up and levels the board by itself. as long as you pop from the center heelside to counter the rebound force of the pop from flipping the board. if you remove the board from the picture in your head you will realize that you are basically juggling inertia inside the skateboard...metal is more dense than wood and holds more inertia for longer. once entropy takes over, then tricks basically become impossible. funny to think that timing and skateboarding in general is actually dependent on golden ratio lol...

[@arkachilles]

The lady, laughing the background as he left the room making the noise made the video😂❤

[@armoredjoey]

I feel bad because I havnt skated since maybe 2004. I have always had issues with my hip since before I started skating and its always been a compromise for me to go out and skate. It took me 2 whole years of trying every day to finally get an ollie down because that beck leg just doesn't preform as well. Getting that ollie down was amazing for me and I think because I had such difficulties, I wound up being able to ollie higher than anyone in my town from the start. From there skating just got too painful and I never got around to landing a kickflip but I could pull off massive pop shove its. I never cared for vert because I liked skating the streets and being creative to find my own obstacles to skate. Maybe when I get a new hip, I'll give it a go again.
