I recently discovered this channel, and became fascinated. After seeing this video, I decided I had to try it. So, I went to the store and bought a bottle of sparkling cider and a wine glass so I could try my luck. I went outside, and to my surprise, it worked on the VERY first time. It’s amazing the things you can learn when you try. And, when you stumble upon easy things like this, it just makes you willing to try harder to learn new things.

[@jacobrobins8506]

Hey Mike, my name's Jacob I’m from Melbourne Australia and am one of many huge followers of your channel and it's videos. A few of my favourites consist of learning to kick flip, and learning to Heelflip. This skateboarding series is very enjoyable and I hope that you can make some more of them to please not only me, but all the others who also enjoyed it. I suggest learning to do the two Varial Flips. Varial Heel Flip, and Varial Kick Flip. A Varial Kick Flip, is a Kickflip in a Pop Shuv-it and a Varial Heel Flip is a Heel Flip in a Frontside Pop Shuv-it. It shouldn’t be too hard since you already know how to do the basics. I hope you can consider these ideas and keep making great vids. Good luck.👍

[@emptyforrest]

the saber is made of metal... a flexible material that absorb alot of energy. while glass is very hard and doesnt compress/flex/bend so alot more energy is transfered when you hit the lip and cause a bigger chock.

[@Batman-od9zv]

I think it has more to do with the champagne bottle itself rather than what u r using to saber it. It seems that there is indeed a weak point on the bottle and that the pressure buildup from the carbonation may be contributing to the acceleration of the cork and glass.
