MY 1ST TOPSIDE GRIND (REAL & BASED) // Razor SL - Kizer Fluid 4 // Aggressive Inline Skate Vlog

[@-duxi]

wow, nice top acids. the fact that you missed a couple times and still basically cess slide across shows that your body and weight distribution is in the right spots. impressive!

[@inlineonline]

thank you!! I surprised myself with this abit too, I didn't expect to be sticking them like that already, I think top acid just naturally forces me to square up my bodyweight just like my "shoulders-too-straight" unity I do haha

[@kevincollins8620]

I'm loyal to Rollerwarehouse. For a while I thought Aggressive Mall would put en outta business. Nope my shop remained! Amall was killing it. If you didn't know always call Rollerwarehouse for the deals. They still do it like it's 2001!!!

[@inlineonline]

yeah they have always been really good to me, they will call me about any issues and even swap out products is they happened to run out or something, really happy with rollerwarehouse I use them or oak city for everything, I hate inline warehouse lol

[@kevincollins8620]

​@@inlineonline😂 I've never dared used inlinewarehouse and they sometimes have had things I actually really wanted. I have used Thisissoul overseas. Ivo's shop. I'd recommend if you needed a custom setup done and you didn't want to go through the hassle. I think they still do that.

I so feel you, man! Watching your vids feels like going back in time for me when I started aggressive skating at age 40, 2,5 years ago. I struggled so hard during learning royales, but I feel comfortable with a lot of tricks nowadays. Your making fantastic progress! Keep going, you can achieve a lot more. I learned topsides with top mizou (sweatstance). I felt that much easier than top acid / top soul, since you have the topside foot leading instead of trailing (but I know that many people think differently 🙃). Give it a try. Btw: I'm also on SLs - love them due to the easy boot down as an old man 😊 Greetz from Germany

[@inlineonline]

It really does feel so good to make progress in this sport, I've been scared of trying sweat stance but I should just do it, It seems like it might be easier with my regular soul foot leading as well instead of my switch soul foot like with my top acids lol I'm all over the place And yeah I'm not sure I'll be able to go back to other boots if they don't let me royale as comfortably lol I love the trick so much now. I'm getting a lot better at them so I'm excited to see if I'm able to do them more consistently in my factions when I go back

[@kevincollins8620]

0:58 You can stall topsides on CURBS with NO wax.

[@c6moneypit8]

Ok I’m jealous! I’ve been avoiding learning topsides. Ok I’m going to start learning them… you’ve inspired me !

[@inlineonline]

you got it bro!!

[@jord2roll]

Wow. just wow, these are so solid.

[@inlineonline]

Felt sooo good, really upped my confidence

[@enzocalzone5298]

congratz

[@inlineonline]

thank you!!!

[@tom.mcf.]

Nice work. Like to see you try an AO Soul.

[@inlineonline]

its on the list!!!

[@chauncey7242]

dang bro, that didn't take you very long! I really think the coping helps lock you in. I've tried stalling it on ledges and I have difficulty with the flexibility to get down with the topside foot and feel stable.

[@inlineonline]

it absolutely does, I can kinda think about it like a rail and just hope for the best lol doing it on a 90 degree ledge is the ultimate test, I would hate to learn that way

[@kevincollins8620]

​@@inlineonlineunfortunately in blading that's how you know you have the trick when you can lock it on ledges sans coping. I did a topsoul somewhere in my shorts and I didn't land lava... but I wouldn't dare do it on a square rail with that much conviction

[@kevincollins8620]

When learning em it's fine if your feet touch, for me it helps. The front foot the acid foot guides my topsoul foot into place. IF I put my top soul foot in the spot where my backslide on my acid is chilling... I'll lock most of the time and ride it out... if I miss I won't go sliding over the deck. kzbin.infoFRZapGmwQXQ?si=uZB-hKHQZ-zxLLh7 Here I did it on a curb

[@inlineonline]

That's a interesting way of thinking about it I'll have to try that, I think I do it subconsciously with my top acids already haha

[@kevincollins8620]

Never skated Kizer... or Create.... I'd love to try create... but I'm good where I'm at.

[@inlineonline]

the differences really aren't that big, just minor stuff while having a massive price difference lol kinda unfortunate that creates are so expensive but it is what it is, I don't make the rules haha

[@Zephyrian1st]

I will not be learning top tricks on a ledge. I will be learning in a flat bar and for some reason that makes me fee way safer

[@kevincollins8620]

kzbin.info4x0jolZq_UQ?si=6KHv1HVq2GVgihBy I cant believe this was 5 months ago. Feels like a few weeks back. After seeing it again today I should try em again on a ledge.

[@inlineonline]

Yeah you could for sure get that on a ledge, and easily a coping box

[@FenwynFlies]

Dude you're covered in sweat it looks terrrribly uncomfortable!

[@inlineonline]

98% humidity is the more uncomfortable thing, I'd rather it be raining lol
