I'm too impatient, I go for the heelflip too soon, I'm getting clser to half kickflip late backfoot one and a half heelflips, haha, that'd be cool too, but not quite as cool. OR maybe cooler?

less cool haha. since it often happens on accident trying the harder trick

RobbySkateboard
07-03-2007, 01:30 PM
yeah, but it has the word half in it twice and it flips the same amount of a kickflip heelflip, but I would rather land kickflip heelflip, sounds impossible, but it's not. Atrain, you said you've done like two of them, was it you who posted a video of late heelflip tricks like 8 months ago and the last one was a kickflip late heelflip?

Shorty's_Kid

My board totally snapped about 20 minutes ago... all i did was a lipslide on my rail and it just snapped.. its only a month old too, i'm so pissed

never buy an almost board, they're weak as hell.

But i'm getting a new board maybe even tonight, but probably in like 2 days.

I've got my set, do i have to wait another half an hour to post it when the deadline finishes or can i just start uploading it now?

RobbySkateboard
07-03-2007, 03:36 PM
upload it now, it won't make a difference, I posted my set when I posted my match, like a day or two early.

Varial_222
07-03-2007, 04:14 PM
Sets up :)

imsorawr
07-03-2007, 04:56 PM
wow thats hard...

Qtip
07-03-2007, 05:31 PM
Yeah, finally a trick I have done before. Hopefully I haven't just completely lost them though. I have like 45 minutes to skate now before dinner, going to give them a few tries, but I do have to film a few trick tips for SB-C so I won't try them too much.

MRCK
07-03-2007, 06:40 PM
I've never even landed one of these (I've tried them a couple of times before but that's pretty much it), so if I ever post a match expect it to be my very first late varial heel :) Got any pointers I should know before I give them another couple of tries ?

DeadBlueSky
07-03-2007, 06:54 PM
ollie in a f/s shifty sort of fashion, makes it super easy

Qtip
07-03-2007, 07:00 PM
The way I do it is I just do the most rocket-ed kickflip I possibly can, and then I just kick my back foot straight out. Anyways I already filmed my match, just have to upload it.

Pathtek4
07-03-2007, 08:41 PM
Sig updated...Quite a few of us got knocked out :(! Didn't even get a chance to match a trick, *sigh*, i'm so miserable right now with work...I figured my time-line would change, but not THIS much. Either way, good luck to the rest of you still in!

dirtysanchez
07-03-2007, 08:45 PM
too bad we didnt get to see tom set..

Pathtek4
07-03-2007, 08:52 PM
Yeah, its a bummer for him, but in his defense, he's been rather busy with his personal life as of late, so he hasn't had too much spare time to get out and match these tricks to stay in the game to set...Maybe next round if he's more settled in

dirtysanchez
07-03-2007, 08:54 PM
ah..
and maybe in GOS11 we can look forward to a 720 flip?

Pathtek4
07-03-2007, 09:21 PM
ah..
and maybe in GOS11 we can look forward to a 720 flip?

Man I hope, I need some more motivation to join the 720flip club :p
3 Months now and still short a 90 or less or like the 1 time, I land on the board upside down :icon_sad:

dirtysanchez
07-03-2007, 09:31 PM
damn! haha, well good luck to you on that.

i'm thinking about joining GOS11 and unleashing a triple heel/varial triple kick on everyone :P

Qtip
07-03-2007, 09:39 PM
I'm going to try a 720 flip tomorrow, but I can barely get 540 flips.

dirtysanchez
07-03-2007, 09:48 PM
yeah if someone does do a 720 flip in the next game, im pretty sure everyones getting a letter.

although i was considering setting a no comply 720 flip :P

Pathtek4
07-03-2007, 09:58 PM
damn! haha, well good luck to you on that.

i'm thinking about joining GOS11 and unleashing a triple heel/varial triple kick on everyone :P

Unleashing a hard trick isn't the hard part :p, its matching the crazy tricks that the other guys unleash on YOU haha! That seems to be my problem :icon_weir

Unleashing a hard trick isn't the hard part :p, its matching the crazy tricks that the other guys unleash on YOU haha! That seems to be my problem :icon_weir


exactly, haha.

If i was in this game, I'd have an SKA right now, so I wouldn't be too screwed.

Varial_222
07-04-2007, 02:44 AM
Pathtek i should be on SKAT not SKA.

DeadBlueSky
07-04-2007, 06:40 AM
720 flips are really a brute force trick, there is technique to them, but they aren't too subtle, chucking it around is the est way to figure out how your weight placement affects the rotation

atrain
07-04-2007, 12:04 PM
yeah, but it has the word half in it twice and it flips the same amount of a kickflip heelflip, but I would rather land kickflip heelflip, sounds impossible, but it's not. Atrain, you said you've done like two of them, was it you who posted a video of late heelflip tricks like 8 months ago and the last one was a kickflip late heelflip?

yes that was me

And nice set varial! i also set this last game, it's a great trick to have. and the tricks you get from it (bigspin back foot heels, backfoot laserflips, etc) are completely awesome! im working on getting it down drops now, i've only tried and landed a 3 so far lol.... theyre really easy to over-rotate

Shorty's_Kid
07-04-2007, 02:36 PM
I'm out

Damn all your crazy tech stuff. I dont even know how you guys even begin to do half of this crap. haha.

Oh well, maybe i'll get to set next game.

Sev7n
07-04-2007, 02:41 PM
I'm out

Damn all your tech ****. I dont even know how you guys even begin to do half of this crap.

Oh well, maybe i'll get to set next game.
This might be it for me too.

I'm gonna :spank: the **** out of Varial if I can't land this, I've gotten a few but most of the time I land on the graphic.

Qtip
07-04-2007, 02:46 PM
If Sev7n and shorty's_kid don't land this then I will definitely get to set again :D

RobbySkateboard
07-04-2007, 04:19 PM
I just relized, no matter WHAT I get to set again!

Varial_222
07-04-2007, 04:31 PM
^^ Do you think you could match this robby?

RobbySkateboard
07-04-2007, 04:39 PM
Crap, I did my math wrong, if I somehow don't match any of the next 3, then I'm out, but I can match this one, thus I will get to set again! I hope I don't do something stupid, like forget to match, haha, I won't be able to today though, as I mentioned, got my wisdom teeth pulled and I'm not supposed to skate, and Pathtek, what's up with not even answering my PM???? LAME, jk, but I need to send you a new one, because I'm going on vacation, like I said, but I said I was going this Friday, but apearently it's NEXT friday, so yeah. I'm going to need an extension from Friday, actually my mom NOW tells me we're leaving Sunday or Monday (the 15th or 16th) and we don't know when we're getting back, play by ear as she said.

Shorty's_Kid
07-05-2007, 11:45 AM
If Sev7n and shorty's_kid don't land this then I will definitely get to set again :D

Well you have me not landing it going for you... not sure about Sev7n though.

I was either gonna set a switch frontside 360 (no pivot) or a Full Cab kickflip... but i'm pretty sure all of you can get those... lol.

dirtysanchez
07-05-2007, 11:53 AM
Everyone, robby's setting a triple heel :P

RobbySkateboard
07-05-2007, 02:13 PM
Maybe not, I just woke up and I'm not feeling in like a good heelflipper today, and I haven't gotten to skate since sunday so today may be a warm up day, we'll see.

MRCK
07-05-2007, 02:58 PM
Haha yes, I got it, I got it ! +rep for you Qtip man, your tips were really helpful, I spent a good 10 minutes on it today, I remember you told me to think of it as a mobbed kickflip and kick straight out and it worked :)

... so yeah, it does mean that my match is up.

DeadBlueSky
07-05-2007, 03:45 PM
i matched it to, with added commentary, due up shortly :)

Sev7n
07-05-2007, 09:09 PM
hah i love darrans late flips. :p

by the way, how the hell do you do these? i can't get the flip at all.

RobbySkateboard
07-05-2007, 09:11 PM
I landed one off camera today, I'll try to get it on film tomorrow.

aronsamma
07-05-2007, 09:38 PM
I always did them a lot like semi flips without the semi part. I faced forward, set my front foot up like a kickflip, then ollied and pulled the tail around frontside with my toe, and the flip just worked itself out.

Varial_222
07-06-2007, 04:57 PM
Matching time is up.

RobbySkateboard
07-06-2007, 06:29 PM
s**t it was due today? Damn it, oh well, I wouldn't have gotten it on tape anyway, my deck is kind of in pieces, so I borrowed my friend's board and am getting used to it.

Pathtek4
07-06-2007, 07:50 PM
Sig updated...Quite a bit more are out! Your set RobbySkateboard

Sev7n
07-06-2007, 08:13 PM
Ah! Good game everyone!

RobbySkateboard
07-06-2007, 08:48 PM
oh wow, got a lot of people out, hm... I may have to change my set idea, I wanted to finally get my triple heelflip, but my board's incapacitated, so I'm barrowing my friends board, and he payed like 70 buckls for EVERYTHING, so it's a cheapy board, I'll get something difficult though, don't think I won't! And Pathtek, check your PMs in a minute, I have an idea for a trick I may want to set, but I need to make sure it's allowed.

Varial_222
07-07-2007, 01:59 AM
Hahaha i told MRCK this, my goal was to make it to the last 5 :)

Hooray!

RobbySkateboard
07-07-2007, 04:31 PM
my goal was just not to be first eliminated, YES!!! I made it, haha

Anywhom, I was working all day, digging, since 7 this morning until now (1:30) I'm dead tired, I'm going to take a shower, then I may try to get my set, and it will be hard for some, but I know 2 of you can do this trick, but I still want to set it, for myself, we'll see though, as I said I'm dead tired.

Varial_222
07-07-2007, 04:34 PM
Could you tell me what you are going to set please robby? i have to go offline soon :(

MRCK
07-07-2007, 04:36 PM
Triple kickflip is my guess :)

Pathtek4
07-07-2007, 04:39 PM
Triple kickflip is my guess :)

You didn't tell me you were now working for the ''Physic Friends Network" :p lmao!

RobbySkateboard
07-07-2007, 05:15 PM
yeah, I'm trying a triple kickflip, I am getting so much closer than I expected to, I actually landed 3, but not landed enough to count for this game, I always land too much with my toes touching the ground, I need to jump and land like 3 inches farther back. But if I don't get this, I'll probably have to set something easy, but I reallly hope I land this.

Ps, it's my friends board (I think I mentioned, just re-mentioning it) mine is sort of, incapacitated? haha

Varial_222
07-07-2007, 05:18 PM
Oh please no, i can't do anything with the word double or triple in it...

RobbySkateboard
07-07-2007, 11:39 PM
Oh please no, i can't do anything with the word double or triple in it...
Well then I sugguest you work on your double heelflips and pray I don't land a triple kickflip, because I'll set a double heelflip if I don't land the triple kickflip, but I REALLY hope I will, haha.

EDIT: I love life! I landed it, so go check it out in like 10 minutes, it's still processing at youtube, and youtube now doesn't give you the link to it until it's done and works, also, I wanted to include like 6 of my other lands that were too sketchy, but for some reason when I add to many clips to Windows movie maker, it doesn't want to slow mo anything, so it would have looked like a blur, so it's just the land, and I'll post it when it's ready, but go match this people! YES FOR ME!

Qtip
07-07-2007, 11:44 PM
Yes! I didn't want to have to learn double heels.

RobbySkateboard
07-07-2007, 11:53 PM
Yes! I didn't want to have to learn double heels.
I knew I would get you and varial222 with the double heel, but personally, I'd rather just get varial222 (not saying I'de rather get him out), I'de have set this if nobody got a letter, just to set it!

Qtip

Nah I probably would have gotten the double heel, but this is much more fun for me.

Varial_222
07-08-2007, 01:44 AM
I would have stood a bigger chance with the double heel, oh well my target was to make the final 5 and i did it :)

MRCK
07-08-2007, 05:47 AM
I'll probably go film my match this afternoon :) By the way I'll be away from tomorrow to Saturday, so I'll probably need a slight extension for the next set.

Varial_222
07-08-2007, 06:21 AM
Where are you off to? Sounds like a long trip, and is it skate related?

Sorry if this is a bit nosy :p

MRCK
07-08-2007, 12:38 PM

Sorry if this is a bit nosy :p

By away I meant away from the computer, my girlfriend is going to spend a week of vacation at my place and I would have to have no feelings to still go skate and waste my time on the Internet while she's here. It's probably going to rain the whole week anyway :icon_pape

My match is up, it's a bit sketchy but that spot is terrible to film at with all these cracks on the floor, not to mention that I need a new board badly.

RobbySkateboard
07-08-2007, 01:16 PM
Triple kickflips are allowed to bit abit sketchy, if anybody narks on a triple beiong sketchy, I'm going to punch them in them nose!

Shorty's_Kid
07-08-2007, 05:54 PM
^Your triple kickflip was sketchy.

Damn, i'm glad i'm out. i can barely flip doubles. lol.

DeadBlueSky
07-11-2007, 01:31 PM
just becaue a trick is hard, its no excuse for it to be sketchy...actually if i were around when the trick was set i would have protested it counting as you don't even roll away th direction you stated which is stated in the rules

but oh well

Varial_222
07-11-2007, 03:24 PM
Bye bye gos10, good game :)

Qtip
07-11-2007, 04:57 PM
DBS, any hints as to what your set could be?

DeadBlueSky
07-12-2007, 05:15 AM
probably some sort of 360 kickflip or some vaguely obscure hardflip variation (i'm at work at the moment so i have slight interweb access)

Pathtek4
07-13-2007, 10:58 AM
DBS needs an extension till Sunday...So seeing he's never needed one before, it was an obvious approval from me :)

RobbySkateboard
07-13-2007, 03:23 PM
pathtek, I've sent you like 3 PM's, but you never answer, can I get an extension from sunday until thursday? My cousin flew in from out of town and we're going camping.

i've filmed my set for this (regular gazelle kickflip) and my set for dbsgos2 (nollie inward heel, switch laser flip, fakie late f/s shove it revert)

however i had my camera stolen today so the likely hood of me getting then online is minimal :(

Dang, that sucks ! Did you get mugged or something, are you alright man ? I hate it when stuff like that happen, I don't even go to the local skatepark anymore since the gypsies who live about five minutes away made it a daily routine to come down there and steal everything that can be stolen (and they're really dangerous so you can't really fight back).

DeadBlueSky
07-15-2007, 01:31 PM
no i'm fine, it was taken from my bag, i have my suspicions as to who it was (a skater), just annoyed more than anything really.

Qtip
07-15-2007, 02:43 PM
You mean a 540 flip with a 360 body varial? Really sucks about the camera, will you still be able to play?

DeadBlueSky
07-15-2007, 02:48 PM
well 540 flip and follow it 360 (bigspin plus a further 180)

i might be able to still play, but i won't be able to set anything today :(

MRCK
07-15-2007, 04:31 PM
What are we going to do with DBSGOS2 then, should we postpone the game, end it, or do you think you'll be able to borrow someone else's camera every now and then ? (I don't think I would have been able to match your line by the way, but I was planning on setting something pretty challenging too, which might have been the potential finisher)

Oh, and did you check your PM's recently ? :icon_eyeb

DeadBlueSky
07-15-2007, 04:37 PM
i did check my pm's sorry i was meaning to get back to you, i don't know what has happened to it actually, if i can find the proof of posting i will do some investigating

as for the dbs gos, it would be a shame to end it, but i can't realistically say i can continue :(

Ha, there's nothing to be sorry for, sometimes minor things like that slip minds, no biggie ;) I wouldn't want to end DBSGOS2 too, maybe we should just postpone it or be more lenient with the deadlines for sets / matches (since it's down to the two of us now), and whenever you have access to a friend's camera you could try getting a set / match on film, I don't know, don't sweat it.

Haha, seems like the past few games there has been many dares when a player is injured or doesnt know what trick to set. Not once has the player accepted the DARE:icon_bigg
Come on Qtip, Be the first and show us you wild side :icon_woow

DeadBlueSky
07-16-2007, 08:42 PM
personally i wouldn't count it, its under rotated and you don't roll away per-se
plus i'm sure i've seen you do much better ones :)

but its not just up to me,

Yeah I have a perfect one but it doesn't have the hand sign or anything. But I mean, if you look at the trick again, it's pretty clear that I have well defined abs, so it should count.

Can I get a one day extension? It's raining like crazy here so I can't really film my trick.

MRCK
07-18-2007, 06:18 PM
So you're asking for an extension of your extension ? :rolleyes:

Exactly :D

MRCK
07-19-2007, 02:58 PM
So do you have a trick for us Qtip ? If you don't and we have to move on to my set, I filmed it this afternoon, and I'm sure you'll all love it because it's an awesome and quite simple trick that doesn't require any late flip / underflip ability :) (yet it's still challenging to do properly)

Qtip
07-19-2007, 04:22 PM
I just woke up, I'll film a trick after I eat.

RobbySkateboard
07-19-2007, 07:41 PM
I'm back for today, but I'm going camping at the beach tomorrow (I'm trying to get out of it, haha)

Qtip
07-19-2007, 08:05 PM
Ok, originally I wanted to set a frontside anti-bigspin kickflip, but I never landed one on film. Then I decided to get a nollie double flip body varial, and I did, but it was too dark. Thankfully, while trying the frontside anti-bigspin kickflip I got a frontside anti-bigspin just in case. I'll upload it in a bit.
EDIT: You can't see the hand sign on the anti-bigspin, and it's pretty sketchy anyways. I'm just going to use a nollie flip that I got. The handsign is still pretty bad but at least you can see I'm doing something.

RobbySkateboard
07-21-2007, 04:45 PM
Okay, I'm back, I can't skate today, un packing etc. But I'll match this either Sunday or Monday. Actually, my cousin is here until Monday (thus the camping) so I might not be able to get to it until tuesday, but if I have a chance, I'll run out and film one.

EDIT: Had a few minutes to skate, got my match

MRCK
07-21-2007, 08:42 PM
OK so now that Robby's match is up, DBS's match is the only missing one we need to move on to the next set, are you still in the game and do you plan on getting your hands on a friend's camera man ? Or do we just move on ?

RobbySkateboard
07-21-2007, 08:48 PM
I say we just move on to the next trick, and if he does get to a friends camera, he can post it. But maybe not?

MRCK
07-21-2007, 09:09 PM
Sounds like a plan, I'll go upload my set then :)

Pathtek4
07-22-2007, 01:09 AM

Of course it's possible ;) And about my set, keep in mind that I'll be really picky on the pivots and on the rollaway. Doing the full spin in the air and still managing to roll away clean is the hardest thing about proper 360 ollies and I'll take that in consideration when it comes to appreciating the quality of the matches. My perfectionism can be disgusting sometimes :rolleyes:

ah cool, i can actually get both of these next time i'm out, which will be a lovely monday morning by the sounds of it :)

RobbySkateboard

How picky are we talking, like what about like a 320 (underrotated by 40) because I don't think I've ever done a perfect 360, but if I had to, I guess I would learn, haha.

Edit: Crap, DBS is back in the game, I was really hoping he wouldn't be able to film anything so I could get at least 3rd gaurenteed, crap, lol. But DBS, don't think I'm hating on you or anything, because it sounds to myself as those this post is happy that you got your stuff jacked, but it's not, that's mega sucks and I have alot of respect for you.

DeadBlueSky

don't worry about how it sounds, its always nice to think you have a little extra oppotunity in a game :)

RobbySkateboard
07-22-2007, 04:09 PM
Dang, I just can't get it, I can't even get a 330 like I was doing earlier! It keeps sliding away from my feet, or somehow, I don't know HOW, but somehow it half kickflips or adds a shove it and gets away from me, I can't get it to stick to my feet, but my dad said earlier today randomly, "Do you get any traction with those shoes?" and I thought about it, and decided, not really, it's pure duct tape, so maybe when I was doing my bs 330 in the past they stuck because they were fresh soles and not old duct tape. Nonetheless, I'll match this, but it will take a while, I'll have to match today too because tomorrow I'm working construction ALL day, so any tips you have to get it to stick and not flip would be MUCH appreciated.

MRCK
07-22-2007, 05:52 PM
I personally find that the way you set up your feet before this trick plays a big role in whether you're going to spin it right or not, I personally set up my feet like this :

http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/mrck41/3-6backplacementpieds.jpg

and I think of how the toes of my back foot have to push the toe-side edge of the deck into the 360, while the heel of my front foot is going to assist the rotation by pushing on the heel-side edge of the deck during the first 180 degrees, as long as you wind up a lot with the shoulders and focus on spinning the full thing at once it should work. Also try scooping with your back foot a bit like you would for an impossible, it may help you to get the basic motion down :)

RobbySkateboard
07-22-2007, 06:00 PM
what I ended up doing, hopefully you'll count it, I made a kind of funny video with me talking to the camera as if it was you, and I always find myself saying M-R-C-K as opposed to Mr. CK, so it's kind of funny, but I got two lands that had a bit of pivot, tell me if it counts or if I need to refilm it, if I have to refilm it, I can't today, the batteries died, I wanted to film a set for my turn after I landed the 360, but it died on my, luckily I managed to get an easy set for my GOC and I made a video of my shoes, that will be getting it's own thread soon, haha.
EDIT: forgot the link to the match: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSiFD_Y0BxE

By the way, the way my friends pronounce the names here is hilarious. MRCK, yours is just the letters in Spanish, so it's eme-ehreh-seh-kah, but atrain's name is the best. Because of their lack of English skills, atrains name is ah-trah-een. I felt the need to say that.

MRCK

Ha, funnily enough that's how it would be pronounced in French too, I've heard it said like that many many times so it doesn't surprise me much :icon_gigg And I've always pronounced your name 'Kyoo-tip', yay for the offtopic !:icon_clap

DeadBlueSky
07-23-2007, 04:41 PM
well i've filmed my matches, poor quality as i had to get out of where i was skating very quickly (hypodermic needles on the floor) so the b/s 360 is pivoted, but i hope they are ok...

MRCK
07-23-2007, 05:17 PM
Nah, sorry DBS but that backside 360 doesn't count, I had specified that pivots wouldn't count and I don't see why the rules would differ just for you ;) I tend to regard backside 180 pivots and backside 360s as entirely different tricks, and there's a whole world between both in terms of difficulty, and even though I can be quite lenient, pivoting a full 180 is pushing it. Nice attempt though, you had nothing to lose to try and hope :icon_gigg

Did you think of filming a set in advance for your next turn ?

DeadBlueSky
07-23-2007, 05:36 PM
i did, i got something, its ok, i think i have a chance to get another blast at the b/s 360, i can normally do them fine its just a lack of ideal conditions and yet more pouring rain, i didn't really fancy slipping out on an over or under rotation and falling into a pile of used needles

i skate in some really bad places... :)

RobbySkateboard
07-23-2007, 07:55 PM

Off topic: I was working construction again today and it drizzled at like 7:15 AM, it was so nice, and there were clouds so the sun never really appeared too much, and now I'm only 10 bucks off of my goal for the nintendo wii! I'm a loser =( hahaha

Qtip
07-24-2007, 01:41 PM
DBS, I'm in the exact situation. It's been raining non-stop here, so I figured I'd skate in my building, but it's all wet inside. I don't want an extension though, because I hate backside 360s with a passion. It took me a VERY long time to land one the other day, just to find that my camera shut off. That was not very fun, and it's not something I'd like to repeat. So if it's dry, I'll try them for a few minutes tomorrow, but I'm not spending another hour slipping out and landing on my hip every other try.

RobbySkateboard
07-24-2007, 01:45 PM
so then you'll probably have a SKAT and it will be my turn, and if I set something you can't, I get third! I'pm so excited, I'm going to go set something I know he can't do, not to sound cocky, but I know for a fact he cannot do this particular trick because it was a goal in kotc and he asked me to do it because he couldn't, yay for being cheap and selfish!

I think I might have gotten the heelflip late shove-it because I've been doing heelflips and they are getting pretty high now.

DeadBlueSky

i'll be able to match this next time i am out, i've been doing this trick for years now (or at least learned it about 4 years ago) i'll get this done once i can sort camera out and once my knee calms down, its behaving strangely today

I think I would have to be in Super Saiyan mode to be able to bust out a fakie heel late fs bigspin. Darran do you think you could do a heelflip back foot hardflip? Or have you done that before?

DeadBlueSky
07-27-2007, 12:37 PM
i did it before, in my wild days i used to do hardflip late hardflips, my late hards are very versatile because i used to do them so much, once the control of the first part of the trick is there, its just a matter of treating it like an ollie-late hardflip, its just mental prepairation

RobbySkateboard
07-27-2007, 03:01 PM
you crazy guy! haha, how about inward heel late hards, that would look sick, it would change every aspect of the trick so it would look like you caught it really high and then reversed the tape, haha.

fakie heel late shove bigspin? to wild for me but you go right ahead, lol

DeadBlueSky
07-27-2007, 03:07 PM
my inward heels suck, but i've thought about it, i reckon with a bit of practise my inward heel would be good enough for the late hard, the timing wouldn't be too different from shove it late f/s shove its i would guess

Qtip
07-27-2007, 03:18 PM
Do you happen to have any footage of a hardflip late hardflip? That's the type of trick that you do in a Tony Hawk game then laugh at how unrealistic it is.

I need to learn late hardflips now, they sound fun. Do you kick forward with the point of your foot or do you kick at an angle with the sole?

slight angle with the point :)

Well I gave your switch laser a few tries today and it seems doable, however it tends to interfere with my switch 360 kiwi flips quite a lot and since I wouldn't want to spend a lot of time in front of the camera trying to get an obviously heelflipped one on film and I can afford it since I only have a S, I think I'll just take a letter on that one ;) I've already filmed my set though, be prepared ! :icon_gigg

DeadBlueSky

So I went out, and gave this trick a whirl, for the fun of it, and got lucky to land on the board, but got unlucky to fall on my back and nearly shattered my elbow :( (I don't think the board did a flip, it did a really fast 360 shove-it, and because I just jumped as high as I could to, when I came down, I didn't expect the board to be underneath me...
