Ok Game of skate 8, Rules:

Same as every other time, except there is a new hand sign of course.

Ok, there is a few different rules this time so read carefully. I incorporated the es’ dame of skate rules into this one because, I think the es’ games are well done.

1. All tricks must be done rolling.

2. Once the board leaves it wheels, it must land on all four wheels. No rail landings, manual landings, caspers, or 50-50s. No hands on board. No hands or feet on the ground, before or after trick.

3. When matching or setting, the trick must be done fairly clean. No toe-drag, the skater must be moving, with both feet solid on the board. You cannot stop and then tic tac away, you must land and roll away.

4. When you are selected to set, you have 2 days to set a trick, if you fail to set the trick you will be given a letter.

5. Players are given 4 days to match the trick, this can be made shorter when there are fewer players in the game, failing to match the trick also results in a letter.

6. No trick can be set more than once.

7. The game is run by the “Pacific Time (US & Canada)” time zone, so all tricks much be matched and set by the time stated in Pacific Time.

8. When you match or set a trick, post it up in the thread called “Game of skate 5 tricks thread” this makes the tricks easier to locate instead of sorting through millions of pages of discussion. The “Tricks thread” which can be located by clicking the “Game of Skate 8” title in my sig.

9. When you match or set a trick, after you have landed the trick you must make the sign that is shown below, in front of the camera, any tricks without the sign will not be included.

10. You must roll away in the same position as the trick that has been set.

So, i'm up first to set, details in the signature, i'll start of with something easy. It's raining today, and I skated 5 hours straight yesterday, so can barely walk, so i'll have to do my set tomorrow.

Lets have a good game!! Hopefully Im not out before it reaches my set haha.

Lets have a good game!! Hopefully Im not out before it reaches my set haha.

Yeah, thats what I'm thinking too, I gotta survive ten other sets and have to land at least six so I can have a set :icon_drib

Game oon!

ow how come im not in is it because of my rep or something

i know i'm not gonna win but i really wanna see how i would get on :)

Good luck to all!

NICE! Let's get this ON, haha!

I see ''cripple'' goes first, :p, bring it on LJ!

I see ''cripple'' goes first, :p, bring it on LJ!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Oh boy, that was a terrible joke. Hey LJ if you are looking for an easy set, I suggest a kickflip, don't want to go too hard on your ankle now do you?

^:p hahahaha! Yeah man, we'll take an ollie if you need to start off slow...

Watch this He'll bust out something totally unexpected and school us all.........hah, this should be an interesting game of skate though. Good luck to all!

ow how come im not in is it because of my rep or something
you need two bars of rep sir.

Oh please set it on the 16th at like 10pm, if you do it means for my last day of matching I get to use my brand new baker deck.

Long Jetty how come in your sig by your name it says thursday 16th?

The 16th is on the saturday.

Varial, are you sure you should be playing the regular GOS and the BBGOS at the same time? Especially when you are losing in the BBGOS. Just saying man.

^ah, he's cool...You can always move up a level or 2 if you want...It's when you move down a level when you are clearly better then the rest of the field, then it becomes a problem

Yeah it's pretty cool to have him in the game I think, it's a good initiative to try a higher difficulty level every now and then and who knows, he may learn some cool tricks from playing with us. I know that playing against better skaters than me on other forums helped me improve a lot, he may not win but that's not what matters and he'll learn from this experience for sure :) It's basically just like skating with more experienced skaters in real life.

Anyway I'm stoked ! This game is going to be awesome, I can feel it already.

Thanks for accepting me in to the game guys, looking forward to the first set :)

Thanks for accepting me in to the game guys, looking forward to the first set :)
Good luck Varial!! I will be praying for you that MRCK doesn't kick your butt lol. But I think you'll stick in there a luttle bit and its all aobut fun and learning new stuff.

Ok, I will have my set done today, it's still raining so i'll have to go on a hike to find somewhere undercover.

I'm not even in the game and i can't wait for this game to start!

I was thinking of joining, but I just suck to hard.

I was thinking of joining, but I just suck to hard.
yes...you do. thebebebbe

Long Jetty, In my mind..I can see that your doing a nollie stanced trick with a flip in it :icon_hug:

oooo nollie bigspin, cool set, btw do we have to do it bs like you or can we do it fs?

oooo nollie bigspin, cool set, btw do we have to do it bs like you or can we do it fs?

You have to do it just like he did it.
Ha, nollie tricks are the bomb when your recovering from a bad ankle.

Good set LJ! I used to be able to pull these off first try in skate. I will go out in a few hours after I really wake up and film one.

Haha, funny thing just happened. I went out to film my trick. And after I did it I completely forgot the sign. I just checked it and am going to refilm again lol.

I was thinking about learning these the other day, it's gonna be a fun trick to learn :D

I love nollie bigs, there so fun and feel good when your going fast or at the skatepark with friends and just do one with a pivot and its oooooh.

Hey roboman..pop

can I be in? or is it too late?

can I be in? or is it too late?

It's too late..

You're supposed to sign up in the "Sign Up Thread"..
Not in the discussion thread, after a trick was set, and when they have the order of who has the next tricks.. :icon_wink

Looks for sign ups for the IGOS(I think it's gonna be called)..
A continuation of the Bgos except the tricks will be more difficult and the rules will be less lenient..

can I be in? or is it too late?
I think it's too late, sign-ups ended a while ago.

Hmmm, nollie bigspins...........after doing gazelles for so long I keep over rotating this trick :D. Haha, don't worry though, I'll have my set up later today. A nice start off to this Game of Skate

My match is up! Don't worry my feet didn't touch I just had a little issue of resetting my feet after I landed. If it is too sketchy and you want me to refilm it isnt a problem

It's too late..

He wouldn't be needing to come into IGOS because he is too good.

What is IGOS? Ill enter haha.

He wouldn't be needing to come into IGOS because he is too good.

T'is bullshwang..

Everyone has their weaknesses..
Maybe bust out some crazy freestyle kick backs junk..
Go techy on his ass...So far the only thing I've seen out of him are plain hard tricks..
inwards heels, hardflips.. Ect.. Nothing to complicated(difficult, but not confusing difficult..)


If he joins, he's not going to have an easy time..
We'll get him..
Some way.. :)

What is IGOS? Ill enter haha.
Intermediate game of skate...
The Bgos going on now is wack for beginners, So were moving the name up a notch and screwing around with the rules..

Join! :)

I have some tricks that might be a little hard. Ive landed some nollie fs full cab flips, and I can get close to nollie bs full cab flips, and I can fakie full cab flip sometimes. hehe

Throw in some Half Cab Caspers and Switch FF Kickbacks, no more discussing here, for this is the GOS 8 discussion. Bring it over to the BGOS4 discussion.

yea get out of here, this place is for real men.

yea get out of here, this place is for real men.

Yeah, I will have to call your mom so she can hold your hand to cross the street.:icon_wink

My match is up...Nice starting off set long jetty...Good to see you still have your skills :p

Was he limping? Or was it just my imagination?

I spent two full hours it the blazing freakin sun trying this trick. I actually landed a few that were a little underrotated by like 45 degrees, but I'm not using those unless it's my only choice. I did get one good one but my stupid camera didn't save it right.

My match is up. Had to do it in the basement again.............Sorry for the crap quality. I Should be gettin my new cam next week.

Haha Supersonix you should have like landed then sat in the couch and did the sign. That would've been funny!

Style points to Roboman.

My match is up, awesome trick :) and I have my next set on film already (I picked something easy).

Haha Supersonix you should have like landed then sat in the couch and did the sign. That would've been funny!

HA! I had the exact same thought.

My match is up, awesome trick :) and I have my next set on film already (I picked something easy).
thats what you said last game :p

Hahaha, I don't plan on coming close to MRCK's set lol.

guys i did match the trick, but i landed 270 degrees and compensated for the other 90 degrees, would u guys accept that?

Hahaha, I don't plan on coming close to MRCK's set lol.
he will just add an underflip and a late shove in there.

My set is up guys, landed 270 degree and pivoted, hope it counts :)

Hahaha, I don't plan on coming close to MRCK's set lol.

Don't worry, I think you will. In GOS7 I didn't know much about everyone's abilities yet, so I busted a few of my best tricks because I thought I would need it to stay in the game, I was too much used to the games of SKATE we do on my own message boards where we always set pretty nasty tricks such as fakie gazelle impossibles, fakie 720 big flips or fs 180 featherflips, playing these games on a regular basis got me into the habit of struggling hard in order to avoid getting too many letters :icon_bore And it's hard to get rid of such an habit, but for this turn I forced myself to do something I regarded as too easy for an online game of SKATE, to make sure that it wasn't gonna be too hard. It's going to be an enjoyable trick for you to learn I think, not something frustrating.

guys does my match count?

guys does my match count?

It's not up to me to decide (otherwise I think I would count it :)), but I don't know, the only slight problem I have with it isn't that you landed 270 degrees then pivoted the rest (I didn't even mind it, the trick itself looked pretty smooth, congrats :)), but that you didn't roll away after you pivoted and you had to tic tac away. That may disturb the others since it's against the rules, so try to film another one where you roll away better maybe ? I don't know.

i'll see what the others think first, i bruised my ankle a lot doing this trick.

I filmed my match, I just need to upload it, thing is I don't have my camera here. I'll be able to access it by tonight.

what does everyone else think of my match?

I think it's good, it should count.

what does everyone else think of my match?
PM long jetty. I'll go look even thoguh i dont matter.

Does anybody know how to get footage from a motorola razr onto the computer?

Buy the camera cord from radio shack.

Or email it. Take the video, then press send when your done.

Individuality. Yours doesn't count. You did FS.

No his was FS I believe. The title even said FS.

No his was FS I believe. The title even said FS.

He titled it wrong..

Keep in mind that Fakie and Nollie trick are reversed when done in that position..
So everyone did a Bs bigspin, If the exact same trick was done reg it would be called a Fs bigspin..

oh. sorry, my bad.

I think everybody's matchs should count so far. One more and everybody matched it! Come on Arto!

I just want to say congrats varial! Some people doubted he'd match not even one trick and he has already proven them wrong. Good luck with MRCK's set tohugh, lol.

Well I watched all the matches they are all sweet. Except I can't watch the ones on putfile, so i'm not sure about them, my computer always stuff's up. Anyone know how to watch putfile in flash?

Can you watch .wmv files long jetty?

Mine is a 3g2 file so you need quicktime, but I'll see if I can get it on youtube.
EDIT: It's on youtube, here's the link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbIj-3DMOdo

Yah, that looks like it'll do Qtip.

Don't worry I'll have a cleaner one up tomorrow, that is just there in case something happens and I can't film it or something.

Well I watched all the matches they are all sweet. Except I can't watch the ones on putfile, so i'm not sure about them, my computer always stuff's up. Anyone know how to watch putfile in flash?

I cant watch putfile stuff either. Dodgy microsoft loader never loads. And its not possible to download from putfile either, it cuts out after a few seconds.

So everyones match is ok so far, just need arto to match and we can move of to MRCK's set.

I cant watch putfile stuff either. Dodgy microsoft loader never loads. And its not possible to download from putfile either, it cuts out after a few seconds.
If you guys can watch .wmv files , then folow these directions.
1) go to the putfile page with the video
2)Go View > Page source
3) hit control+f
4) type in " .wmv "
5) copy the source code ex. http://uploadfile.putfile.com/getfile/1166452bslash96-b72-0d9c52754video473slash0sslash34314111383.wmv
6) go to skaters cafe and make this a link, dont post it, jsut make it a link to yourself.
7) then just right click and save the movie.

Sounds complicated but it's not really.
See if this works :D

Alright, I am going away on vacation to florida on wednesday. I am *PRETTY* sure that I will have computer access, but I don't think I will till the weekend. This probably means that I will need an extention on matching MRCK's trick. If it isn't something ridiculous it shouldnt be more than a day or two. But when I get on the computer it will be no hassle to upload the footage and host it.

Ok that's cool Uncleleo, just tell me what date you will ned the extension till, before you leave.

Its wet as hell so ill have to do my match in my god damn lino floored kitchen later tonight. Sorry guys for being late.

Haha it's cool arto, MRCK your up.

dammmmm mrck thats one good set right there

think of it as a f/s bigspin with a little bit of extra scoop :)

Nice set MRCK :)

I'll try these later on.

My set is up, it's a plasma spin. Rare trick but it's nothing hard I swear. Basically there are two ways of doing them :

- the 'soft' way : set your front foot somewhere close to the front bolts with your toes slightly hanging off the toe-side edge of the deck (or pretty much wherever you can get it out of the way so it won't be caught in the spin, it really doesn't matter for this trick), and have your back foot toes on the heel-side corner of the tail at a 45° angle so it looks like something like this : http://mrck.skyblog.com/pics/581133949.jpg . Then you have to apply pressure on the corner of the tail with your back foot toes a little over the back wheel so the board starts to flip over kind of like during a pressure flip - keep your back foot low for a while so the grip tape side of the deck comes in contact with the inner side of your foot, and throw your shoulders around in a frontside 180 really quick while drawing a little circle in the air with your back foot so the deck wraps 360° in total around your heel. Then t landing is similar to a fs big spin.

- the 'beastly' way : that's how I do them switch : http://img297.imageshack.us/img297/4576/switchplasmaspinto6.gif - set your whole back foot across the tail perpendicular to the length of the board, pop as hard as you can so the deck goes as vertical as possible and go through the motions of a fs big spin but keep your back foot low so the deck wraps around your heel and you never lose contact with the grip tape.

It's not a hard trick, it may be a little bit tricky to figure out at first but no doubt that at least some of you will have learned it on time. Good luck !

EDIT - Haha, three replies already.

Wow... that is one sick set man... that is amazing... Good luck to all who are in the game. Well done if you can match it, if you can't... well there's no shame in taking a letter from MRCK...

Wait... didn't you say you'll start off with something fairly easy?

Wait... didn't you say you'll start off with something fairly easy?

Well I swear it is :icon_yes: The 'frontside big spin impossible' name may sound a bit impressive but it's actually even easier to do than a regular fs big spin in my opinion because your back foot helps the spin, plus this isn't the Beginner Game of SKATE so I wasn't going to set a kickflip either. I had filmed a few more advanced tricks but I think I will only use them during the finals if I can make it there of course.

:icon_bunc

Alright, looks like I will be taking a letter here probably haha. I probably won't need that extension though. If anything when I get on the computer on saturday I will either post up my math (most likely not), or post that I couldn't get it.

I was trying these, right? I am no where close haha.

Don't let the seemingly complicated aspect of the trick put you off, it's really easier than it seems. I've made a GIF animation not only to show you my smelly feet and my room's carpet but also to help you learn the trick faster, it depicts the basic motions you have to go through in order to successfully complete the trick : http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/875/plasmaspintricktipyg9.gif

Hope this helps. Oh and if you can do pressure hardflips, it shouldn't be a problem, basically it's the same thing but you keep your back foot low for a while and draw a little circle in the air when the griptape side of the board comes in contact with it to get the wrap.

I'm sure that most of you can do it :)

I'll have to come back to this one later when i'm more awake and I can actually see what the hell just happened! WOW! Nice set, very nice indeed!

I like the foot position, kinda reminds me of the lazerflip :)

Oooh, I was trying these last game of skate because I thought you might do them. I actually get closer to frontside impossibles than these. I've got frontside bigspins back, just gotta dip them in a bit and impossiblize them.

Oh yeah. In the process of trying these today I got a regular stance 360 kiwiflip. Woot I say!

Is this just an impossible with a fs body varial? Because I can't tell wtf is going on.

Is this just an impossible with a fs body varial? Because I can't tell wtf is going on.

It's a frontside impossible with a frontside body varial, basically a frontside big spin during which the deck wraps around your back foot heel.

Here's the slow-mo : http://img266.imageshack.us/img266/3771/plasmaspinje4.gif

And another one performed by a friend of mine : http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/706/plasmaspinslow1lb.gif

Hey MRCK, i'm having trouble tipping the board on its side for the scoop, do u have any tips for me?

I'm getitng kind of close to these, I cant even fs biggie haha. Its like,I can scoop it round, im just not sure wether im doing a fs biggie or a plasma spin.I can feel it on my back foot the whole way around though so I think it may be a plasma spin, ill be tryign these alot more now.

I'll have a go at these today, they look pretty hard though! Haha nice set MRCK.

My match is up. If it's too sketchy let me know. My camera's the crap so the quality aint the greatest.....But hey, I learnt a new trick :D

It's not sketchy at all man, awesome job :) Now take them to banks ! Just like on my current avatar :) They're even easier on sloped surfaces in my opinion (so it may be a good idea for the others to try them there first) and they feel even better.

Varial_222 : sorry man, I'm a bit busy on homework at the moment (I can hardly find the time to refresh the page every now and then :)) but I'll post a detailed trick tip as soon as I'm done with my assignment.

Thanks for the Rep man, It came quite easy since I have already been experimenting with fs impossibles (without the rotation). Putting a ton of pressure on your back foot is the key. There's a ton of possibilties with this trick, now I just gotta let my imagination take over........

Wow this trick was a lot easier than I thought, I landed a few today, I'll post once I can find a store that sells firewires.

There is no way I'm gonna be able to land these. I can't get the scoop with my heel at the same time as I spin my body. The few regular frontside bigspins I got were hard enough. Tried for maybe 1 1/2 hours today all up.

Plus, its far too hot / stuffy. Bushfires everywhere. Raining ash. Ugh.

Wow this trick was a lot easier than I thought, I landed a few today, I'll post once I can find a store that sells firewires.

Awesome :) This trick feels good doesn't it ?

Hey MRCK, i'm having trouble tipping the board on its side for the scoop, do u have any tips for me?

Well. The back foot action is pretty similar to the one for a pressure hardflip, for a plasma spin you have to learn how to point your back foot toes down so the board starts to flip over about 1/4 the kickflip way (kind of like if you were going for a straight pressure flip or a kickback) yet still pop the tail so the board starts to spin frontside a bit and the griptape side comes in contact with the inner side of your back foot. You have to have to point your toes down, keep your back foot low so the deck flips over a bit and scoop right away in the right direction - basically the key is to locate the right pressure point, by this I mean that you have to experiment with a lot of different back foot positionings until you find the exact bit of the tail you have to apply pressure on. Pressure flips take some logic in order to be figured out because they're all about finding the exact spot on your deck to pop and scoop in order to get the board to react the way you want it to and get the desired spin - if you want me to get into more accurate information, here's a little scheme I drew :

http://img125.imageshack.us/img125/9710/plasmaspinpresspointdy4.jpg

(yeah I know about the square tail, I used an old pic of an old deck)

Basically, the white lines are the axises of your back truck bolts, and you have to apply pressure with your big toe right in the corner I circled in red (which is basically right over the back heel-side wheel) while popping the tail on the area I circled in white, point your toes DOWN, then keep your back foot low while jumping up and scoop frontside a bit in the direction I depicted with that yellow arrow - this should cause the deck to flip over as it's supposed to and end up the way I drew it in yellow, then all you have to do is a quick body varial while slightly wrapping the board around your heel and land as if it was a regular frontside 180 or frontside big spin.

A friend of mine does them with quite a different back foot positioning : http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/706/plasmaspinslow1lb.gif look how his back foot is tilted 45° towards the nose of his deck instead of towards the tail. I find his technique a bit harder, but you may want to give it a try if mine doesn't work for you.

There is no way I'm gonna be able to land these. I can't get the scoop with my heel at the same time as I spin my body.

Try facing the direction you're going a bit more before you pop, turning your body earlier and keeping your back foot low longer (kind of like if you were doing a kickback or a bubble) so the board will wrap around your heel no matter what happens.

Wow thanks for going through the trouble of making a trick tip.

I'll go out later on and give them a go.

Thanks a lot MRCK! :)

+rep

these are messed, haha I was trying them in my garage and cant get a scoop. Wish the snow would go away sort of.

This trick feels so cool when you land it, and it helps you a lot with board control. Excellent trick MRCK.

MRCK does you board say something like:

U Value my skateboard/ your life
I value your life/ my skateboard?

MRCK does you board say something like:

U Value my skateboard/ your life
I value your life/ my skateboard?

'If you value your life as much as I value my skateboard - keep your hands off'.

I read that sentence a while ago on an old Sims ad (I think), I re-used it because it made me laugh.

Oh! Haha! I thought it was like, I value your life, now give it.

lmao.

Just a question. I was trying these yesterday, if I was to land, my board would be facing backwards, but doing a 360 rotation, shuldn't I land and it be facing forward?

Just a question. I was trying these yesterday, if I was to land, my board would be facing backwards, but doing a 360 rotation, shuldn't I land and it be facing forward?
Maybe you are only spinning it 180?

Ive actually learned Fs Biggies with baerly any pivot from this trick, I cant wrap the board around my foot. Awesome set :(

Whoa! I've written off any chance of getting plasma spins, but man am I close to frontside impossibles now. They just wrap around the back of my foot and I can get one foot on easily, almost two.

I really don't know what i'm doing then, I landed something today, lol, I'll film and post it up and see if it's right, it doesn't feel right though.

Edit: Aha, Got it now, I was just practicing them one footed, I was doing like a half impossible, then sort of casper flipping it back over. I landed one stationary and my back foot slipped off, I think I might be able to get it.

So whens the deadline for this trick?

Gah, I haven't even edited my sig, sorry guys.

Ok, I threw a match up...If it's not right, then beat me kindly and I have plenty of time to do another one or two or three :)
It did travel around with my foot, but it's definitly not as inverted as yours MRCK

Well I think that it's up to Long Jetty to decide but I personally would count it :) It was a bit underrotated but I would let that slide because you did get the grasp of the mechanism of the trick so now cleaner landings are only a matter of practice. Well done !

A lot of people have been saying they can't scoop it. If you can't scoop try this, this is how I do them. Pop the most vertical f/s pop shove-it you can, and keep your foot at the tail. Turn your body 180 and kick your back foot out so the board finishes the spin. Make sure you jump high enough to do all this. Wait for the board to finish spinning, and land.

Guys i can get the part where the board rotates but for some reason the board does a pop shove it instead of tipping on it's side for an impossible, i have my toes in the corner but it's not working.

Any more tips? :)

Yeah that's the way I do them switch, I think it looks even better that way because the board goes even more inverted :) but it takes more effort, you have to pop really hard.

One more tip : it's a bit hard to get used to keeping your back foot as low as long as possible so the board starts to wrap around your heel for this trick because it's quite an uncommon thing to do, you have to resist the urge of sucking your back leg up right after the pop (as you usually do on frontside pop shuvits or fs big spins) and actually think of it as if you wanted the board to go as vertical as possible and do as if you were going to plant your back foot on the ground, wait a bit so the board goes inverted, then and only then bring your back foot back up once the grip tape side of the deck meets the inner side of it. Don't forget to throw your shoulders around in a quick frontside 180 and you should be fine.

Or just basically learn the frontside variety of what Roboman calls 'inverted shuvits' (1/2 impossible 1/2 back foot underflips) by popping feirce fs pop shuvits and keeping your back foot low so the deck kind of wraps around your heel, and add a full fs 180 to that, it should work.

Oh man I landed a couple more good ones today, I'm getting them pretty vertical now. Since I lack the firewire, what I'm gonna do is connect my camera to the T.V, and film the T.V with a cel phone cam. I should be able to find somebody who is willing to lend me their cel today, if not definitely by tomorrow.

Pathtek, it was a bit under rotated, but everything else seemed fine, unless anyone disagrees, i'll let it slip ;)

Well, I appreciate the honesty from everyone about my match. I know it wasn't pretty, but that trick wasn't exactly all Jam and Jelly either..haha

I think it counts.

He did the trick and got the main purpose of it.

Well done pathtek :)

My match is up, the quality is extremely bad but you can see what's going on.
PS: Roboman we should try to get one of these going on SB-C.

Guys, my match is up, it's sketchy, i roatated it as much as pathtek, but since i did that, you can't see my back foot, it looks like it's not on the board but i just managed to keep it on in the corner of the board, when i landed it my heel was in the corner of the board and my toes were hanging above the ground. I kinda did a lil jump thing because my weight was unbalanced.

What do you guys think of it?

Was it just me, or was everyone jamming to porn music on their match? Mike, Super, MRCK, lmao.

Sorry man, but I don't think that should count. That was way more underrotated than Mike's and your foot was clearly on the ground. I think that should be a redo or something.



I really haven't had too much time to spend on this trick. I landed one exactly like Mike once though so I will probably go out and film today.

Yeah Varial, I would have been glad to count your match even though it would imply to let a bit of sketchiness slide so you wouldn't get a letter, but this is just too much, sure it looks like you guided the board around with your back foot but you only spun a fs pop shove-it, not to mention that the landing itself was far from being clean. So I don't think it should count, but it looks like you're on the right track though, try doing the same thing you did but throw your shoulders into a very quick frontside 180 right when you pop to do the body varial really early and at the same time, use your back foot as you did in the video so you get a full 360 of the board in total. And get your set ready by the way, it's your turn soon :)

Qtip nice match, very clean, varial, sorry that dopesn't count, your foot touched and you completekly stopped.

ok guys, i'm ok with that, i can't re-match, so i will take the letter.

atleast you tried and almost got it

I got so damn close! I keep landing one foot. Oh well, letter me..

atleast you tried and almost got it


Thanks :)

At least if i can land the trick in the future i can use it in games of skate against my friends :)

When is it Varial222's go?

I'm not sure when i will have to set by, but i wil probably go and set tomorrow

Ok sig updated.

Ok guys, i decided to set now, it's a 1 foot 720 kickturn, your front foot must not come back on to the board until the full 720 degree roatation is complete.

I had to kickturn away a bit after the trick because i was about to smash in to either the bins or my conservatory.

If you need me to re-set i will.

Interesting. I dont mind trying to match this one, but there might be some problems with it. Here are the rules:

1. All tricks must be done rolling.

2. Once the board leaves it wheels, it must land on all four wheels. No rail landings, manual landings, caspers, or 50-50s. No hands on board. No hands or feet on the ground, before or after trick.

3. When matching or setting, the trick must be done fairly clean. No toe-drag, the skater must be moving, with both feet solid on the board. You cannot stop and then tic tac away, you must land and roll away.

4. When you are selected to set, you have 2 days to set a trick, if you fail to set the trick you will be given a letter.

5. Players are given 4 days to match the trick, this can be made shorter when there are fewer players in the game, failing to match the trick also results in a letter.

6. No trick can be set more than once.

7. The game is run by the “Pacific Time (US & Canada)” time zone, so all tricks much be matched and set by the time stated in Pacific Time.

8. When you match or set a trick, post it up in the thread called “Game of skate tricks thread” this makes the tricks easier to locate instead of sorting through millions of pages of discussion.

9. When you match or set a trick, after you have landed the trick you must make the sign that is shown below, in front of the camera, any tricks without the sign will not be included.

Looking at this, rule 2 says "Once the board leaves it wheels..." implying that it must be in the air at some point. It also says you have to roll away, which is sort of difficult for one foot 360's like that. Very cool trick though.

EDIT: I also just realised that rule 2 also knocks out any fingerflips, salflips, bonelesses, no-complies, beanplants or foot plans of any kind.

I p'med Long jetty to ask if i could do that trick and he said it was fine.

I don't think this should count. It also says "NO MANUAL LANDINGS" and technically this is a manual trick. So if kickturns are allowed couldn't I technically do like a nosemanual nollie heel out or something (not like I can do that anyways haha)?

But long jetty is organizing the game, and he said i could do it.

Well, I'd like to challenge Jetty's decision. It says no manual landings in the rules. Is this not a manual?

Regardless of whether it counts or not, i thought that was sick varial. I can only get thm 360.

but by the time long jetty comes along my matching time will be near enough over..

but by the time long jetty comes along my matching time will be near enough over..
What do you mean?

And yes it was really sick BTW.

What do you mean?

And yes it was really sick BTW.

I mean that if long jetty changed his mind and comes in to this thread tomorrow i will not have any time to re-set.

I mean that if long jetty changed his mind and comes in to this thread tomorrow i will not have any time to re-set.
I guess you could film something extra today? Or I bet he would give you an extenstion gladly.

Well he's not going to, because he said setting this trick was ok.

Well long jetty's is the person to decide, but when did manuals start being allowed, they were never allowed before?

if long jetty changes his mind will i get an extra day to set?

Well long jetty's is the person to decide, but when did manuals start being allowed, they were never allowed before?
Exactly my point...


if long jetty changes his mind will i get an extra day to set?
I would say so.

Why couldn't you just film an extra set right now, instead of delaying the game?

Rabble Rabble Rabble!
I don't mind the set but rules are rules.
Rabble Rabble Rabble!

This isn't a freestyle game of skate.

yes, it was sick but this is no freestyle game of skate..there really is no manuals or other freestyle tricks.


I dont think we should have this, besides the fact that I cant do it..its a one foot wheelie they did back when the skated small banana boards

yeah re set it now i reckon we dont want no freestyle in this game

Lol I hate these 1 footed kickturns so much, I've already taken 2 letters in BBGOS for them, a 540 and a 720. It is a very good trick though.

Sorry, Varial PMed me the other day, the trick was on putfile, I could barely watch it, I was busy and just said it would be fine. Those guys are right, manuals are not allowed, sorry varial, of course you can have an extra day to set, I screwed up.

Ok will do, sorry about the delaying guys.

Ok will do, sorry about the delaying guys.
dont worry man, its christmas holidays :D

Ahh man, if this could be up by tommarrow morning that would be awesome. My camera is all charged up and ready to film!

Well it's raining atm, if it doesn't stop then i will have go in my garage.

EDIT: Ok guys my set is up, a nollie body varial revert, the body varial must be the opposite way of the shove it, then a revert at the end of the trick. I'm a bit disppointed on how easy this trick is, but it was quite dark and very wet so i was cramped up in my rough grounded garage.

Anyway good luck matching!

My match is up. I guess that is it, looks just like yours Varial. At the end I fell when I was pushing, pretty embarassing haha.

Match is up. Fun trick right here.

Sorry about how easy the trick is guys, but i guess that suits you lol.
Uncleleo i don't have quicktime, can u upload to youtube please?

Supersonix, where was your revert??

Sorry about how easy the trick is guys, but i guess that suits you lol.
Uncleleo i don't have quicktime, can u upload to youtube please?

Supersonix, where was your revert??
Well it's not really a revert man, you rolled a bit and then did a pivot. Anyways Supersonix did the shove in the wrong direction.

The revert was as good as some of the reverts for the varial kickflip in game of skate 7.

It still counts doesn't it?

And yeah he did do it the wrong way.

Sorry but as Qtip said you can't really count that as a revert or a pivot (and I do believe that all the varial kickflip reverts in GOS7 were fine), that was just a nollie shove-it body varial quickly followed by a kickturn. However, since actual nollie shove-it body varial reverts shouldn't be too hard to learn for anyone here (I think) and since it's Varial's first time in a GOS, I wouldn't be against letting this little flaw slide and count his set as an actual nollie shuv body varial revert. However the matches would have to be actual nollie shove-it body varial reverts (we could make an exception for uncleleo since he has posted his match already, and supersonix has to re-do his trick anyway). Just my two cents, I guess it's up to LJ to decide, once again :p

Ok sounds good if lj agrees, but i'm sure veryone will match anyway..

Haha, I was going to argue this one too, but I felt bad because I blew up over the other set. I just matched it and didn't care. If this doesn't count, and there is a new set, is there any way I could get a couple extra days? I rolled my ankle today and I want to take it easy.

Woh, I didn't even realize there was a revert. I'll post my rematch tommorow.

My match is up..

Haha, I seen you had gloves on Pathetek. She's cold out. Don't wanna spend too much time freezing your fingies there :)

COLD? More like artic circle type stuff with the windchill! Wait till January when you see me with my Gloves/Mask/Hoodieup and thermal socks (which you want see, but trust me, they'll be there) lol!

It isnt what we call ''Brick'' here just yet, but with the wind today, it sure was close...I think it was 38degrees out when I was doing that...cold enough for me :p

You gotta start doing some basement tricks like me :D
But, I can see where your coming from. Canada's worse, I don't even got a street to skate on and once you walk outside, your running back in.
Pfffffft.......Winter.................

I hear ya there!!
I don't have a basement, lol, my house is built on a cement slab! I have a kitchen with vinyl floors, but not enough room..Once it snows, i'll be stuck in my carport, but since I live on the windy'est hill in my city, not having a ''closed'' garage makes for some really nasty elements i'm exposed too...*sigh* Games of SKATE are no fun when you have to pack a camping trip w/ shovel to get it done :p

Uh, I've got a question before trying these. I'm attatching the revert straight on the end of the nollie boomerang. Theres two directions to do the revert:

One means the board will do a full 360 and I'll do two backside 180s in succession.
Two means that I'll do a backside 360 and the board will go 180 and 180 back.

To be even to varial222s set, I should probably do option 1 because its more similar to his. Can I do either one I want, or would it be better to just do both?

Option 2 is actually more like varials.

Option 2 is actually more like varials.

Oh yeah, I screwed up my words. I did it varials way regardless. My match will be up very soon.

ALSO! Keep in mind that whoever puts music over their skating in this Game of skate will be completely muted in the video I'll make at the end of it. I put different music in the final thing, so regualr skating sounds are fine, but I have to mute clips that already have different music becauee they clash real bad. Just letting you know.

^^^^
Thanks for letting us know, I was just going to put some music in my match......should be a great video when the games done.

I was meant to say before, but I forgot. I could overdub fitting skatesounds from my big collections of skate nioses, but its not really worth doing that hah :)

When you do make that video if you want I can send you the high quality version of my f/s impossible bigspin, and my actual nollie bs bigspin which I sent to LJ through msn because I couldn't upload it.

Well now you tell me :icon_redf ...haha! Well I can always upload one without music, I just do it sometimes to take out my truck noises. I leave it running so the inside stays warm and put the camcorder on top of the hood (why it lays sides sometimes)

Well I'd probably mute it anyway if the noise of your truck is too loud so dont worry about that.

Although supersonix6's music on his f/s bigspin impossible is awesome. In the editing I'm gonna pause the normal music just to have that one play though, then cut back to the normal stuff again.

Yeah, I'll let you know when I need them. But its no problem ripping the plasmaspin from youtube or google or putfile because the finished product quality will be down to youtube quality by the end of it anyway. If that makes sense.

Nice match Robo. Thats what this trick should have looked like.

Nice match Robo. Thats what this trick should have looked like.

Thanks :)

Its an easy trick to slip out on though. I was on the ground a couple of times.

Nice matches everyone, i'll go try this trick now.

Ok I got the trick, but I have a problem. It won't open in windows media player, but its mpeg, and it will play in realplayer and stuff. I've downloaded a few other programs and it opens in them but I can't figure out how to use them. The file is 30mb and I can't edit it! Any suggestions on what I should do?

Lol, it's only the first day of matching and about half the people have already matched.

I knew it was a really easy trick.

Yeah but the one I have up now is me filming the TV with a cel cam.

Alright Guys I posted up my re-match. Hope its right this time.....

You say it won't open in WMP? Like you can't bring up the ''Capture from video device'' option? That is very odd!
You know, it sounds like somewhere along the way you changed setting accidentally because there is alot of videos you can't view on other sites like putfile. Did you recently download a player like ''realplayer or Divx"? It may be possible that it is set to ''default'' player and is screwing with your system

Sorry pathtek, I meant movie maker***

Normally I use a digital camera, which records in MPEG, it's in repair so I can't use it. Myu sister got a digi cam for chrissy and I asked if I could borrow it to film my trick, it records on MOV and WMM wont open MOV so i converted it to MPEG and it still wudnt open, so I just uploaded the whole file on youtube. I have filmed with another camera, which is quality like a camera phone, it records on MOV and when I convert it, it opens fine in WMM, so something is strange. I think I did install a Divx thing lately though, not 100% sure, I think one came with a program I tried to download.

Alright Guys I posted up my re-match. Hope its right this time.....

Yeah man, your good to go and nice match as well, you too Roboman, leo, and jetty! haha, I just kept waiting and waiting for your trick lj, lmao...Hopefully you work out the editing soon enough..
May I note, try a program called "Muvee autoProducer" if you can get your hands on it, I think it runs in several formats not WMM...

Ok cool, since my camera is going to be in repair, i'll probably continue using my sisters. I'll get this program and see if it helps./

Can the "revert" be as late as varials? Or do you actually have to land on all for wheels and push it round? Plus varial did a pivot?? Oh the confusion.

Don't stress to make that revert perfect, unless you would like do. Just do the nollie shove with the bodyvarial, then like pivot back to normal stance. That's what Varial pretty much did.

Oh okay man, thanks.I'll film my match today.

Woah Robo and Super, props for cleanliness!

LJ, I watched your's and that clip looked exactly like my clip lol.

so..yeah..snowboarding is taking up my holidays a lot haha..I cant do a kickflip because It feels weird and off balanced, does this whenever I snowboard a few days without any skating..ill try this later. so a front shove body varial revert? funky.

May I note, try a program called "Muvee autoProducer" if you can get your hands on it, I think it runs in several formats not WMM...

I bet that came with your laptop ;)

Hey I got my match on film and i'll post it up in a sec but I apologize for the sketchyness. My trucks are all ****** up and i can't tighten or loosen it anymore and its hella loose so yea...

That really wasn't bad individuality. But I dont think I have ever seen someone walk to the camera to put the sign up hahaha.

Hey I do that all the time!

Oh, sorry Long Jetty, it was just really noticably with Individuality because he sort of like pouted haha I found it funny.

damn indiviuality what size is that shirt lol guess thats why ure called individuality

Its only XXL in tall tee size..

Ok here's the deal. I filmed the nollie shove-it body varial revert a few days ago, but haven't been able to upload because I didn't have a firewire (or a computer to connect it to). Yesterday I had a very bad bail (which I will be able to show you guys :D) and hit myself in the abdominal area. It wasn't that bad yesterday but when I woke up today I had a huge pain in the abs, and I can't even walk right. So when I was looking at the old nollie shove-it body varial, I realized I forgot the hand sign. I think tomorrow I will be able to upload the one without the sign (and the bail), so do you think I could maybe get like a day or so extension just so I can film another one with sign once the pain goes away?

Just a thought, I think it would save a lot of complications to count the one without the handsign right away. I mean, nollie shuv body varial reverts aren't the kind of thing you film for something else than an online game of SKATE, and even then it's not a common set. So I don't think that anyone would doubt that you filmed it specifically for the game or that you could re-do it in less than five minutes if you weren't in pain. But I don't know what LJ thinks about this little infringement of the rules.

Why not ocmbine them into one vid? One of them has the handsign so your match has teh handsign. there ya go!

hey what happened to my promised spot? lol

you promised that i could have a spot since in the last one my board snapped at the beginning of it.

"Why not ocmbine them into one vid? One of them has the handsign so your match has teh handsign. there ya go!"
...what?

hey what happened to my promised spot? lol

you promised that i could have a spot since in the last one my board snapped at the beginning of it.

I said in the signups you have a reserved spot if you come and claim it, you didn't, so the game went on without you.

I knew i was going to miss somthing when i went to florida....


i think this is God telling me he dosent want me to do this since somthing happens that keeps me from playing in every single one... last time i had the chance was with game 2... lol.

Long Jetty, can i have an extension till tomorrow morning.I can match this trick no sweat, its just i was out skating bi today for the agent video and took alot of slams and I actually cant move let alone skate.

No problem.

Well since my friend with the computer that had a firewire port bailed on me, I took some pain killers and went out to skate. I landed the trick with the sign on film with a cel cam, and although the quality is awful, you can kinda see what's going on. I should have the vid up in like 30 mins.

wow..first day I have to try this trick, 2 hours later and I still havnt landed it..I thought this would be a peice of cake. I spin the nollie shove fs while doing a bs body varial. I can land it but I over spin it and I cannot revert it around, danmit. lol...good set, suprised me how not easy it was.

Woahhhh. It's saturday, exactly 10 pm haha. Do I get to post my set up now?

Umm yeah, Uncleleo go for it, arto-geoff can still post his match up, but we can all get on with your set.

My set is up! Nollie BS halfcab flip!

nice set, Ive been trying these..hopefully I can get one close to 180 degrees and quickly pivot/revert without stalling too much :p

Nice set. I probably won't get this one.



RAINBOW!!!!!!!!!

Hmm, nice set!

I've never really tried these before.

I'll have a go later on, it's wet at the moment :(

Ah, interesting...

I have occasinally landed some switch frontside flips, I've never tried these...

Interesting indeed :) I've never tried them too because my nollie / switch kickflip skills aren't the best but still I think that this is the occasion to learn this rad trick !

Nice set. I probably won't get this one.



RAINBOW!!!!!!!!!
congratulations man!

thanks for the extension lj i have it matched,im jus uploading it now, 10 mins.

Here's the deal, I had the trick on my camera, but my friend with the comp that had the firewire port couldn't come. So I filmed the trick on my friends cam, but when he uploaded it to the comp it came out all white, and when I uploaded it to youtube it never processed. I'm going right now to film another on yet another cam. Give me 15 mins.

cmon CMON, i ****ing hate youtubes processing ****

I've given nollie bs flips a few tries, I can flip them fine without even commiting, I think I'll be able to match this as soon as it stops raining.

And yeah Arto, youtube seems to be unusually slow today...

Haha you've got to be the most unlucky GOS player ever. Good luck anyway :)

I think youtube isn't working right because I tried to upload something yesterday and it didn't upload and today and it didn't upload, use putfile or something.

Haha you've got to be the most unlucky GOS player ever. Good luck anyway :)
Haha yeah I agree. I have filmed the trick on like 5 different cameras and none worked. Anyways I already managed to get it on my friends cam, it's in the tricks section. Not really the best but it's good enough. I'm going out in a bit to try to get nollie b/s flips.

Yea, Youtubes definatly acting up so I could only post my match in Putfile.
But my match is up.....

I do believe the broken ankle was the most unlucky moment in a Gos.. :icon_wink

definatly the worst moments in skateboarding...when you fall and tweak and ankle, is totally the worst thing about skateboarding.

You know whats weird? The pain isn't in the ankle. It's a bit farther down my foot.

Matched it. I'm uploading the video now. Its midnight but I've done my best to lighten the video up so its visible enough - lucky my board is a light colour.
Its the first one of these I've ever landed so excuse the sketchyness. I was thinking of working on them a little bit more to get a good one but I'd rather go to bed :)

Cool set, im going to try and do a nollie flip and land on the nose and pivot it round.

nollie bs halfcab flip? Man, now i really wish i could be in this.

NOOOOO! I snapped my board doing an ollie off a picnic table that was up to my waist. I really didnt expect it would break from just that. So...

...I'm still in the game, I'll hopefully get a new board in the next week or so. I might need an extension on the trick after Uncleleos when it comes round. But I loved my old AWS. And new boards always take a couple of weeks to break in. Grrrr.

Dang that sucks Roboman, I don't think LJ will have a problem with granting you time extensions though. Good luck.

As far as I'm concerned I didn't know that my nollie kickflip skills were so bad, I can only get the half flip on these nollie bs flips, I guess I need to practice the flick of my back foot ankle a bit more and mess around with different foot positionings, but this is going to be harder to match than I expected.

^Foot position is key I think...I've been studying Uncleleos position, but I cannot mimic it :(! (I can get into the stance obviously, but I see to flip before I turn) I'm used to starting my turn, THEN flipping...This is tough! Nice set Leo!

I had a dream that I had a new baker, my friend and I were playing skate, and he set a rodeo flip to grinding the top of a wall, I just ollied and snapped my deck. It was a VERY sad dream. Then I got kidnapped with all these other kids and we had to get onto a plane and the door was open and everything was getting sucked out of the plane... I'm glad I woke up.

im not sure that your dream has anything to do with this gos newbed, but it was still fun to hear it... :D:D

I think I've figured out how to get the full flip. Instead of flicking to the side of the board right after the pop I have to wait a bit more and flick more toward the tail while facing the direction I'm going instead of keeping my shoulders parallel to the board - just in case someone is having the same problem as me. I should be able to match this at my next skate sesh.

I still can't skate, I tried to today but it's impossible for me to drag with my right foot right now. I'm not sure if I will be able to skate tomorrow, so is it possible to get an extension?

When is the deadline?
