Ok ive got my match filmed, i got confused though whether it was nosestop or tailstop so i did both. I just got home and relised it was nosestop so ignore the tailstop. Its just processing on youtube now so ill stick it in the trick thread when it is ready.

BILL
06-01-2006, 03:08 PM

^Beginner tricks man.

arto-geoff
06-01-2006, 04:08 PM
Yeah, id like to him to play, the more the merrier.

Necromortis
06-01-2006, 06:44 PM

Well, can I play?

~Necro

Necromortis

wow necro can play. ok man just dont do any hand stand things cause you're crazy at them.

Necromortis
06-01-2006, 08:01 PM
No, I promise not to set any gymnast plant sets unless I'm up against Dead Sparrow alone (cause he can do those).

I promised to set some easy stuff :D

~Necro

BILL
06-01-2006, 08:46 PM

_Jayden_
06-02-2006, 12:56 AM

So sorry.

FaggotLaMaggot
06-02-2006, 10:04 AM
Okay, I hope I can get my camera back soon. It is an easy trick, so if I do, i will be able to get it right away.

BILL
06-02-2006, 05:55 PM
hey stupid(lol) i dont know if your trick is valid because of the surface you performed you trick on... you can ask lazerflip but here is the rules.. http://media.putfile.com/fbgos1

maybe thats the right trick. i done it both ways to

rules...This is an idea i've been kicking around for awhile. I get eaten alive by Tony W and Daniel Jones is the last freestyle game, so how bout one for beginners? Ten players, these are the rules:



1. All tricks may be done rolling or stationary.

2. No ollie flip tricks are allowed. If oyu can work an ollei into your combo, cool.

3. Feet may touch over the course of a trick, but you have to land clean, and I'll be very lenient about tic-tacing out.

4. You'll have five days to set, and five days to match.

5 All times will go by General Mean Time. This saves me a headache.

6. After your tricks, flash the peace sign towards the camera.

7. Any trick other than an ollie flip is allowed.

8. No incredibly good freestlyers signing up and eating us. Please.

9. HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

stupid
06-02-2006, 06:02 PM
ah if it isnt valid ill post up another one tommorow

BILL
06-02-2006, 06:03 PM
Well its no biggy just ask lazerflip he is a nice guy :)

stupid
06-02-2006, 06:04 PM
nah ill just go film another one real quick right now i mean you refilmed yours on so i should to

lazerflip
06-02-2006, 07:20 PM
^Nope, your first match isn't valid. Sorry!

Necromortis
06-02-2006, 10:43 PM
Skaterbob - that was a tailstop to rail.

~Necro

skaterbob
06-02-2006, 11:58 PM
no , it was nose stop , im goofy footed. check again

Necromortis
06-03-2006, 12:36 AM
My bad, just the way you stepped onto the board (regular) made me think that you were regular.

Sorry :D

~Necro

skaterbob
06-03-2006, 01:10 AM
crafty with my "switch" skills arent i? heh

lazerflip
06-03-2006, 07:58 AM
Ach, Dead Sparrow, ya have to come out straight. I'll let these two slide, but try to do the tricks straight in the future.

sk8t3r
06-03-2006, 09:17 AM
****.....i taped my move but i cant find the usb cable to my camera. I will try to find it though.

skaterbob

Ach, Dead Sparrow, ya have to come out straight. I'll let these two slide, but try to do the tricks straight in the future.

come out straight ? what do you mean ? and does this apply to me ?

Necromortis
06-03-2006, 02:03 PM
What he means is that Dead Sparrow went straight to casper, instead of going down to tape and then going to casper. You were fine though, because you went down to tape and then went to a one handed 50-50.

~Necro

sk8t3r
06-03-2006, 08:20 PM
ok i found my usb cable so i have posted my match up. we have until tommorrow?

lazerflip
06-03-2006, 08:20 PM
^Yep, we have until tommorow, midnight!

sk8t3r
06-03-2006, 10:23 PM

Necromortis

Woot it's stupid's turn to set :D

~Necro

stupid
06-05-2006, 01:07 PM
yeah i know that sucks to i have to think of a good trick to do. id rather match then have to set

lazerflip
06-05-2006, 02:35 PM
Ok, it looks like everyone has escaped letterless except for Jayden and Loki. Stupid, you have until midnight June 6th to get your set up. And sorry I can't update my sig, it appears that I can't have more than 5 lines?

Necromortis
06-05-2006, 03:57 PM
^What you should do is get rid of the 'Players' and the Title lines, and not name the trick that's been set. Then you should be fine :D

~Necro

FaggotLaMaggot
06-06-2006, 06:38 PM
Lets see it, midnight! So, when do we have to do stupid's trick?

By the time I go someone will probaly be almost out already.

Necromortis
06-06-2006, 06:44 PM
Yeah, I think stupid gets a letter now.

~Necro

FaggotLaMaggot
06-07-2006, 06:50 AM
You get a letter for not posting? Thats stupid.

Necromortis
06-07-2006, 09:51 AM
^No, it's actually quite a good idea. Otherwise, people would just skip out on it, and the game stagnates. It's a bit different because it's online.

That's how the GoS and the FGoS are run, dunno about this one.

~Necro

lazerflip
06-07-2006, 04:19 PM
Yep, stupid gets a letter. Sorry, bud!

Loki has until tommorow midnight to set his trick!

Necromortis
06-07-2006, 04:24 PM
^Gah, Lazerflip, I'm out of your signature!

Lazerflip, try putting the letters in a different coulour so they stand out from the names.

Hey all...I know i'm not in this game, BUT until BILL gets his DNS server issues figured out (he cant log onto skaterscafe), im going to keep him filled in whats going on in the game and post HIS Matches and Sets up for him with my screen name...just so you all know...

FaggotLaMaggot
06-08-2006, 08:06 AM
Loki shall set thy trick for thus not getting a letter in thy game.

lazerflip
06-08-2006, 07:57 PM
And Loki gets a letter! Jetty, your turn to set! You have until midnight the tenth!

hey boys im back.. is this your set jetty??? cause im so screwed
Wow, this is my first flip trick i've landed out of a railstand, I'm quite pleased. Anyway, it's probably not much, i'll have a go at guessing the name: "Toeside Railstand, Heelflip out." I'm not sure it that's it, a freestyler can correct me if im wrong. Anyway here it is: http://media.putfile.com/Railthingy-flippy-out

sk8t3r
06-09-2006, 10:20 AM
does it have to be that type of railstand. can it be where the grip is facing behind you.

Necromortis
06-09-2006, 12:28 PM
^Nope, the set is a Toeside (emphasise on the TOESIDE) Railflip (that's the proper name for it by the way jetty).

A tip for you guys, try moving your flipping foot off the wheel a bit, and push downwards. It's a lot easier than trying to roll the deck. However, it takes a bit of getting used to.

I'll try and film my match sometime today.

~Necro

arto-geoff
06-09-2006, 12:56 PM
Ah, I can do these, my match will be up later.

skaterbob

long jetty
06-10-2006, 06:40 PM
Put your toe right on the edge of the board so like your toes are on the wheel, that will give it extra power.

lazerflip
06-10-2006, 08:42 PM
when is this due by?


Midnight the thirteenth.

FaggotLaMaggot
06-11-2006, 02:06 AM
sk8t3r is up next! Lets see it!

Necromortis
06-11-2006, 12:26 PM
^You don't have a set order for matching tricks, only setting them.

So yep, I filmed this trick. Just have to get it onto my computer sometime...

~Necro

06-11-2006, 12:44 PM
ahhh guys im having troubles with theese... >_< not looking good

I know that, I was saying I want to see sk8t3rs next trick.

sk8t3r
06-12-2006, 12:37 PM

lazerflip
06-12-2006, 12:41 PM
You have to get it up by the fifteenth midnight!

sk8t3r
06-12-2006, 12:44 PM
if i get it today could i set it today.

lazerflip
06-12-2006, 12:47 PM
You can film it today...but you can't set because it's Long Jetty's set until the thirteenth. Then you have two days to get your set on.

sk8t3r
06-12-2006, 12:57 PM
k i got it filmed do i post it tomorrow or on wednesday.

Necromortis
06-12-2006, 01:02 PM
On Wednesday, then you have until Friday to post it up.

Ugh - I really need to get that TS Railflip from my camera onto my laptop.

~Necro

BILL
06-12-2006, 08:05 PM

FaggotLaMaggot
06-12-2006, 11:23 PM
^Yeah I used to be able to get that trick on lock, now it is what, 10 minutes to land one sketchy?

BILL
06-13-2006, 03:43 PM
i cant even do it

Necromortis
06-13-2006, 05:14 PM
Ew mine was sketchy! Oh well, it'll do.

~Necro

lazerflip
06-13-2006, 06:12 PM
^That's because you are bad at skateboarding. We've been over this before, man.

Everyone's sets are good, althoguh I think Mr. Maggot's foot touched. Did it?

FaggotLaMaggot
06-13-2006, 09:26 PM
I redid it, no foot touched.

Wait, lazerflip, your first set had your foot touch! Bad boy!

lazerflip
06-13-2006, 09:37 PM
Well Mr. Maggot's set is late...but it was my fault for not telling him earlier...bad me...so I will let it stand...bagel.

BILL
06-14-2006, 04:16 PM
so where is the set??? im ready

Necromortis
06-14-2006, 05:31 PM
It's Loki's turn to set.

~Necro

~Necro

If _Jayden_ doesn't set, I will hunt him down, and gauge his eyes out and strangle him with his intestines.

Could someone please check to see if I got all the letters right? I'm just about 99% positive I did, but it would be nice if you guys could go ahead and check for me anyway. I think I'll be putting this in my signature, because it's just easier to update like that.

EDIT: Signature updated.

FaggotLaMaggot

Lazerflip didn't match the TS Railflip. Sk8t3r got a letter from not matching a set and then he missed his set as well. _Jayden_...I honestly can't remember. Did he match the two tricks posted so far?

~Necro

FaggotLaMaggot
06-16-2006, 02:13 PM
Neither of those tricks.

Necromortis

Necromortis
06-17-2006, 05:16 PM
^Good catch man, I'm glad that you're honest as well.

I'll add the letter now.

~Necro

Arto geoff will probaly set, right?

Necromortis
06-18-2006, 12:13 PM
Yep, Jayden missed his set, so it's Arto's turn.

~Necro

BILL
06-18-2006, 12:44 PM
we should really send out PM's somthing like Dear Arto, In the BFGOS it is your turn to set. Your trick must be posted in the tricks section by midnight of the 19th of June or you get a letter! Good Luck, Have Fun!
~The FGOS People

Necromortis
06-18-2006, 01:44 PM
^That's a good idea, since everyone seems to be missing their sets in this game.

I'll go do that now.

~Necro

arto-geoff
06-18-2006, 01:52 PM
Im gonna be like all the other hip guys here and miss my set...




Jk, ill post something up tomorrow. Good idea about the private messages by the way.

06-18-2006, 02:15 PM
^Yeah for sure.

Looking forward to your set arto - don't make it too hard ;)

arto-geoff
06-19-2006, 02:26 PM
My sets up, its not too hard. Its a one foot tailstop fingerflip type thing. Make sure its your back foot thats on the board and not your front btw! Oh and ignore the first attempt, I thought it was sketchy so landed it again.

Necromortis
06-19-2006, 02:31 PM
Tailstop fingerflip. Ok can do mate :D

Just gotta get home to film it. I'll update my siggy now.

~Necro

ARTO!!! what happened to the begginer in this lol!

Necromortis
06-19-2006, 03:12 PM
^It is a beginner trick. You should be able to learn it in a day (maximum - I learnt these things in fifteen minutes).

Here's a tip - for a faster flip, put your thumb on the bottom of the deck.

~Necro

06-19-2006, 06:43 PM

stupid
06-19-2006, 06:59 PM
im off to match and should have it tonight this and work on the trick for the fgos2


ps.. i learnt ts railstands to hs railstands to railstand flips on grass and how to get into 50-50s today

~Necro
yes,... thats technically true, you can do that, but, imo it gives it an uglier and less controlled flip when your just learning it... personally i prefer thumb ontop, remember kids, its all in the wrist, NOT the arm

BILL
06-19-2006, 09:45 PM
Do you use bolth hands or just one?

Necromortis
06-19-2006, 11:11 PM
Just one.

I've got my match filmed, but I can't find my cable for putting the videos onto my computer. I'll find it sometime later today though...

~Necro

skaterbob
06-20-2006, 12:07 AM
oh snap, after arto , i get to set! hmmm, i need something tricky... but without an ollieflip.. you know what that means kids fingerflip fun!.... maybe

Necromortis
06-20-2006, 01:22 AM
^Yay, fingerflips! But keep it simple man, this is the BEGINNER Freestyle Game of Skate.

~Necro

06-20-2006, 02:53 AM

This freestyle stuff is just to hard, i get cramps in places ive never got them before.

Necromortis

i dunno when its due by, but you flip with your hand

Necromortis
06-21-2006, 12:11 PM
Just check my signature if you have any questions about due dates.

And it's called a FINGERFLIP, so I'd assume you flip with your hand ;)

~Necro

BILL
06-21-2006, 03:13 PM
Hmm, good point but it always seems like my leg wants to catch it and flip it

Necromortis
06-21-2006, 03:31 PM

Yep, it counts. It's fine if you flip the deck a bit to the side like you did - it still counts.

This is the first time i've ever skated freestyle in my life and so far I've got every trick in the first 3 attempts. It's cool to be learning new tricks but they all seem to easy?

Necromortis
06-23-2006, 05:06 PM
Be thankful you aren't in the regular game - I'm thinking of setting a double fingerflip airwalk to tailstop to godzilla flip :D

Although since I'm setting in about five weeks, I'll probably have something harder concocted up by then.

Necromortis
06-26-2006, 12:50 AM
Dude...

You realize that half the people in this game couldn't match a fingerflip from tailstop? How do you imagine that they'll be able to match this trick?

I must admit, it was very nice and clean. I can do this one, but...I doubt as cleanly. I just started getting rolling fingerflips, and I've been freestyling for a while.

The thing is, for some people, fingerflips come naturally. I personally think that the set is a bit hard for the skill level.

However, because I'm cool, I'll count it as a valid set unless three other people think it's too hard for the game skill level.

~Necro

06-26-2006, 01:13 AM
No I think you should leave it we need a challenge!

Does it flip like a heelflip or a kickflip?

skaterbob

No I think you should leave it we need a challenge!

Does it flip like a heelflip or a kickflip?

thank you, i wanted to give a challenge, thats what we started this for right?

and it flips in a heelflip direction

and in responce to necro, i just did it because i felt some people wanted a challenge, and i think that the tricks thus far could be learned in a matter of days.. i taught my friend how to tail stop fingerflip in a few minutes, its suppose to be easy, but lets not get to easy here

Necromortis
06-26-2006, 01:30 AM
Well you do realize that it's the Beginner Game of Skate? I'm all for a challenge, but for people who have NEVER skated freestyle before...meh, whatever. People do only have five days to learn the trick.

It's still a nice set.

~Necro

arto-geoff
06-26-2006, 03:18 PM
Feck, nice set, I learnt these outta tailstop, out of normal will be hard though. Are they easier moving than stationary?

skaterbob
06-26-2006, 05:56 PM
stationary , but the set was done moving... but for learning purposes, learn them still, then moving slowly, you might also wanna try fakie, that helped me

long jetty
06-28-2006, 04:36 AM
Far out that is very hard. I almost got them fakie but geez rolling forward is gunna be a challenge.

Fozzz
06-28-2006, 06:03 AM
I'm suprised this set was allowed to be honest. Comparing it to the first set, this is incredibly difficult. Never tried them before but I'lltry them (I think, I have no idea of any deadlines or any such measures)

Necromortis
06-28-2006, 10:30 AM
It's due on the 30th. I really shouldn't have allowed it, but...meh.

In the future guys, tone down the sets a bit for this game. I think there are only three or four guys in here who have ever skated freestyle before - kinda harsh.

Skaterbob - I finally got these things back yesterday. Unfortunately, my parents went on a three day vacation and took the camera with them. If it's all right, can I have an extension on this trick (just to film it)?

Also, when I do the trick, I seem to be underflipping it a lot. Any tips on getting more flip without effecting the rotation of the deck?

~Necro

skaterbob
06-28-2006, 04:43 PM
umm, sure thing on the extention. but anyways, just try to give more power to your wrist, not your arm. the flip is all in the wrist

Necromortis
06-28-2006, 05:22 PM
All in the wrist. Ok cool, thanks. I'll try getting them consistent after work today.

06-29-2006, 01:06 PM
Skaterbob - is it ok we land in a nose stop?

~Necro

eh , let the others decide, personally , since the set was done with a roll away i think it should be rolled away , i know how your landing in nose stop , just kinda lean back a bit more and dont let your weight fall forward

Necromortis
06-29-2006, 01:51 PM
^Yeah, I think I can get it. The problem now is I'm spinning 360 1.5 flips...and if I so manage to spin the 180, I underflip it. *sigh* I hate getting these tricks back.

I'll try some more - hope my parents come home soon so I can film this up.

ok, sets up, its a classic flip (also known as a old skool kickflip too some) and it dosent have to be rolling

i think this is ok for this game, vote or something if its not siutable, remember you dont have to do it rolling

07-02-2006, 07:03 PM
its a hell of a lot easier than what i set, soo , should be ok .

Stevie Hunt
07-02-2006, 07:09 PM
^^ haha, i know, you set one hell of a set man for a beginner game, im not complaining though, just thourt i would set something much lighter

Necromortis
07-02-2006, 07:23 PM
You know, I lied. I have a few matches that I think might be acceptable. If not that's cool though, but I'm not going to re-film. I bailed longboarding today and cut my left hand up, so no fingerflips for me for a while (read: till it heals).

I apologize in advance for the quality of the footage. I think I need a new video camera - apparently someone dropped ours. I'm going to tinker with it and see if I can fix it up a bit.

Anyway, the match for this trick and for Dead Sparrow's trick should be up sometime tomorrow. I'm entertaining people at a boring as hell dinner party so that's why I can't get it up today.

Necromortis
07-05-2006, 10:47 PM
Was your M80 done fakie (I wasn't paying attention, I just looked at the pivot). And yeah, it counts as an M80 - but barely. It almost looked like your back wheels hit the ground.

Btw, match is up. Apologizing for the sketchiness - need to break in my new shoes.

~Necro

skaterbob
07-05-2006, 10:56 PM

Necromortis
07-05-2006, 11:56 PM
It isn't an M80 if your back wheels touch the ground. But you're close, and it flowed, so be happy I guess.

I'll count it.

For future reference though - a railwhip is where you kick the board and it rotates underneath you while you stay stationary.

I landed a few of these the other day, pretty sloppily (toes hanging off and the like). I'd give it another go today, but after a month of beautiful sunny weather, we've resorted back to the traditional heavy rain in summer, as per British tradition.

i trust you and all , but seriously, i cant even see the trick .

My garage is pretty much smooth as butter. I can't Primo Slide on it though - the paint on it makes it stick.
