View Full Version : mirror game of skate discussion thread
johnny16tx 09-17-2007, 08:02 PM New type of game everybody *mirror game of skate*
for sets
regular+switch= good
nollie +fakie=good
regular+fakie = not good
switch + nollie = not good
Heres how the game works
1: All tricks set must be in both regular and switch stance in the SAME line
2: No tail scrapes, railstand landings or extreme toe drags. By this I mean if half your foot is actually hanging off the board then it won't count.
3: No freestyle. This is an ollie flip game of skate. Pressure flips are allowed too.
4: No hand slaps.
5: Trick must be done moving and must roll away moving. If you land it and have to tic tac to roll after then it wont count. However if you land it and roll and tic tac to regain balance, then that's fine.
6: 3 days to set and 4 days to match, e.g is a trick was set on september 24th at 8:00pm you will have until the end of 28th (midnight)
7: Hand symbol is

It appears your list is lacking something very important. It starts with a Q.
kotch 09-18-2007, 05:49 PM It appears your list is lacking something very important. It starts with a Q.
Well of course you are first, but you are so far ahead of everyone skillwise that I didn't even bother to put you up there :)
RobbySkateboard 09-18-2007, 06:21 PM it would be a waste of energy to write qtip at the top, I mean it's implied, that's like saying 2+2+0=4, it's just easier to say 2+2=4, the 0 is just so obvious you'd look like a moron putting it because everyone knows that.

Sev7n 09-18-2007, 08:55 PM dylan, give me help on nollie 3 flips, i hate them. :)
johnny16tx 09-18-2007, 08:57 PM dylan, give me help on nollie 3 flips, i hate them. :)
;)
secret is put ur foot RIGHT under the back bolts and focus more so on the flick then the spin
and set up like a switch 3 not nollie 3
sorta look backwards insted of toward the way your rolling
trust me it helps alot
Sev7n 09-18-2007, 09:00 PM ah, okay, thanks. babe. ;)
Roboman 09-18-2007, 11:37 PM it would be a waste of energy to write qtip at the top, I mean it's implied, that's like saying 2+2+0=4, it's just easier to say 2+2=4, the 0 is just so obvious you'd look like a moron putting it because everyone knows that.
Hahaha!
RobbySkateboard 09-18-2007, 11:40 PM I try, haha
Watch, after all this talk I'm gonna end up in last :P
AntiHero777 09-19-2007, 11:28 AM is there ANYTHING Dylan can't do? ^^^ lol
Carousel?
:icon_hug:
Match is up, it was even easier than what I expected (took less than ten tries), my new Heavell deck is really awesome for flip tricks, I'm stoked ! :)
terence123trh 09-19-2007, 02:39 PM hah, i can do both these tricks but havnt done them in a while so they are incosistent at the moment,hopfully ill get them back in time:)
atrain 09-19-2007, 05:30 PM ah youre kidding me! i first proposed the idea to this (to my knowledge) back last march or so, and i missed the signups! im so bummed :/
johnny16tx 09-19-2007, 05:50 PM ah youre kidding me! i first proposed the idea to this (to my knowledge) back last march or so, and i missed the signups! im so bummed :/
=[
we waited 2 extra days since there was 1 last spot
but nobody wanted in
so we started :(
dumbdog7723 09-19-2007, 07:05 PM ah youre kidding me! i first proposed the idea to this (to my knowledge) back last march or so, and i missed the signups! im so bummed :/
Dude someone left at the start. Why don't you join? The game just started.
RobbySkateboard 09-19-2007, 07:18 PM atrain should be allowed in, nobody has a letter yet and it's first set, but no extension.
johnny16tx 09-19-2007, 07:28 PM i was considering that
but he hasnt responded back to this thread
so i didnt ask
dumbdog7723 09-19-2007, 07:29 PM i was considering that
but he hasnt responded back to this thread
so i didnt ask
Send him a PM. :)
johnny16tx 09-19-2007, 09:23 PM i told atrain if he matched by the match time he can join
but he will be placed to set last
only to make it fair
everybody agree?
dumbdog7723 09-19-2007, 09:30 PM everybody agree?
Yerp.
atrain 09-20-2007, 02:40 PM yay i get to play! this should be funn haha... i promise if we ever get to my set before the end of this epoch, youll see some interesting stuff ;)
RobbySkateboard 09-20-2007, 03:03 PM yeah, like nollie fs 720 gazelle double hardflip late forward flip revert, then do it fakie. hahah
and by the way! I'M NO BIATCH YOU JERK!!!!!! haha
Presto 09-20-2007, 09:17 PM regular+switch= good
nollie +fakie=good
regular+fakie = not good
switch + nollie = not good
And what of regular+nollie and switch+fakie?
johnny16tx 09-20-2007, 10:35 PM And what of regular+nollie and switch+fakie?
id say no
since the point is like a mirror
if you reflected nollie it wouldnt look regular
=P
dumbdog7723 09-23-2007, 09:26 AM Never mind...
Matching time is up. Terence, your set is due soon.
johnny16tx 09-25-2007, 04:46 PM terence123trh your set is due the 28th
terence123trh 09-27-2007, 01:30 PM any idea what time tomorrow my set is due ? the weather has been a bit **** the last couple of days,i should be able to get it done tomorrow.
atrain 09-28-2007, 09:34 AM your set is due midnight tonight
johnny16tx 09-28-2007, 09:37 AM thanks atrain
i nearly forgot his set would due
btw terence
if you dont set you get a letter
terence123trh 09-28-2007, 09:39 AM alright, expect it to very easy just a heel/sw heel or something...
I hate switch heels ! I'm definitely going to be able to match, but expect my switch heel to roll over the ground or something, that trick just feels so disgusting :tongue:
johnny16tx 09-28-2007, 07:57 PM match is up :D
Varial_222 09-29-2007, 01:06 AM I used to have switch heels, now i can't even get close haha, i will try and re learn them today, and i already have a set in mind for me :D
johnny16tx 09-29-2007, 08:59 AM andy and dd
ill let you guys rematch
but if you dont your current matchs will count
=]
dumbdog7723 09-29-2007, 09:46 AM Ok, I rematched. I edited it over my first match.
atrain 09-30-2007, 01:24 AM god i suck at switch and regular heels, especially regular ones haha. i can land them (as you can see) but im so bad at them **hint hint i suck at heelflips**
RobbySkateboard 09-30-2007, 01:39 AM yeah, you sure suck at switch heels Mr. Nollie gazelle heel! hahahaha
atrain 09-30-2007, 11:08 AM yeah, you sure suck at switch heels Mr. Nollie gazelle heel! hahahaha
okay, switch varial heels and their derivations are different haha... and laser flips dont count either. but if someone were to do say, fs heels switch and regular, i'd be screwed
johnny16tx 10-01-2007, 05:32 PM great matchs
1more day to match
johnny16tx 10-02-2007, 06:29 PM match time ends today people
Dude, really sorry but I'm going to have to drop out. I really don't have the time, plus I don't have anywhere where I can skate right now.

atrain 10-03-2007, 02:11 PM are you still in the game sev7n? any idea on what youll be trying to set
Sev7n 10-03-2007, 08:32 PM sorry guys my internet's been all weird and we're having installations of officers for demolay so i've been all out of whack. i'll be setting tomorrow though, don't worry!
Any idea of what you're going to set ? I have a busy schedule these days and can't skate as much as I would like to, so any info on what I'll have to get on film the next time I can get these good ol' feet on mine back on the griptape they belong to would be welcome :) Thanks in advance.
Sev7n 10-04-2007, 01:56 PM if i can get another, it'll be featherflip - sw featherflip, but it'll probably be some shove it variation that is extremely annoying. :)
johnny16tx 10-04-2007, 05:30 PM sev7n your set please? :)
Sev7n 10-04-2007, 08:28 PM no your set please.
i'm super super stressed over so many things right now so bad that i might implode upon myself if i went and skated. i'll film an easy set tomorrow, probably a bigspin variation.
i'm super super stressed over so many things right now so bad that i might implode upon myself if i went and skated.
That's the worst excuse I've ever read ;)
Geori 10-05-2007, 01:59 AM im feeling the shocker for a hand sign
Sev7n 10-05-2007, 02:43 PM mrck, it's not an excuse. i'm setting either way tonight.
mrck, it's not an excuse.
Oh, I wasn't doubting you or anything, I was refering to the 'I'm going to implode if I go skate' bit, taken out of context I find it hilarous :) Anyway I can't wait to see your set !
johnny16tx 10-05-2007, 05:26 PM sev7n your sets due in a few hours
will you be needing an extention?
dumbdog7723 10-05-2007, 07:04 PM Please set soon sev7n.

I couldn't get on to my computer yesterday and i was at the indoor skate park on monday.
I matched one of the sets and the other time i couldn't do the nollie tre.
johnny16tx 10-10-2007, 04:26 PM oh sorry
yes it is my set
i got mixed up
and andy we havent heard ANYTHING from you
and you havent posted
even when i asked if you could match or no
atrain 10-12-2007, 09:26 PM good set johnny... i may not be able to match considering i just had midterms and now im back home from school for the weekend (fall break) and i didnt bring my camera! haha. but i did bring my board so theres always a chance i guess... ha
johnny16tx 10-12-2007, 09:40 PM you still got 2 full days atrain :D
johnny16tx 10-14-2007, 01:59 PM match time ends today
is nobody going to match?
Sev7n 10-14-2007, 02:05 PM by the looks of it, no. great set though, i had fun trying!
I didn't even try, nollie doubles hate me with a passion :) I'm looking forward to the next set though !
EDIT - haha, crap, next set is mine. I have a few potential back-up sets ready though, tell me when it's my turn exactly and I'll post one.
johnny16tx 10-14-2007, 05:25 PM your set starts tommorrow
so feel free to post next time you wake up :D

6.)atrain-sk
Atrain, it's your set. You have until Oct. 25.
atrain 10-22-2007, 03:26 PM oh sweet, um... i could try something with a high probability of nobody matching (bf heel, sw bf heel eh?) but i think ill go for something that'll probably get some matches, its more fun that way
dumbdog7723 10-24-2007, 05:01 PM Atrain, you set is due tomorrow.
Any idea of what your set is going to be already ? :)
atrain 10-25-2007, 01:56 PM it will probably have to be something easy, its been raining the last 3 days and i dont have a whole lot of access to skating in the rain here.
dumbdog7723 10-25-2007, 03:18 PM Do you need an extension?
atrain 10-25-2007, 04:30 PM nah, i just did something easy. posting now
So it's switch varial flip / varial flip ? Just making sure in case it would be the other way around.
atrain 10-25-2007, 04:40 PM oh i didnt know it mattered.... yeah switch varial flip, varial flip
dumbdog7723 10-25-2007, 04:56 PM I matched. Sorry about the quality.
RobbySkateboard 10-25-2007, 05:01 PM that was fast... haha
atrain 10-25-2007, 08:50 PM I matched. Sorry about the quality.
your match video is private
dumbdog7723 10-25-2007, 08:53 PM How about now?
http://vimeo.com/357732
johnny16tx 10-25-2007, 09:02 PM matched too =P
I may need an extension for this as well as for the next set, I'm going on a trip with some friends tomorrow morning and I don't think I will have access to the Internet there :) I may get the chance to skate this afternoon though (not sure yet, mind you), if I do then I'll film my match, and if I don't, well... take a wild guess ;)
atrain 10-26-2007, 12:17 PM ^i dont have a problem with it haha
and good matches you guys! johnny your switch varial flip looks almost exactly like mine lol, like the way it flips and even the way youre positioned when you land and how you ride away (up to the ticky tac)
atrain 10-29-2007, 05:15 PM matches for varial flips were due yesterday, sev7n is out, terence has SKAT
dumbdog you have til the end of the 31st to set
terence123trh 10-29-2007, 05:31 PM ahh **** i forgot, haha
dumbdog7723 10-29-2007, 06:53 PM Haha, crap. I thought matching time would by end by today. I'll get my set tomorrow.
johnny16tx 10-29-2007, 07:11 PM thanks for the help DD *the sig*
=]
I filmed my set yesterday morning, but the video file is on my friend's camera and he won't be able to send it to be until tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, therefore I may need a short extension to be able to post it, but I got it (in front of metalshin2047's house for those who know him, he has an account on here and I posted a few vids of him a few weeks ago), so don't letter me please, thanks :)
johnny16tx 11-01-2007, 12:24 PM kk mrck :)
plus you set after me
so theres still a few people left till its your turn to set
dumbdog7723 11-02-2007, 06:46 PM MRCK, in the video you posted, all you can see is you rolling for the tricks.
EDIT: Never mind. I see them now. It would only play to 00:06 before.
That's probably just because Putfile hasn't converted the file yet, it usually takes some time, if it's not done in a few hours I'll upload the file somewhere else.
atrain 11-03-2007, 11:26 AM :icon_conf
http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h217/theredderlemur/truck.jpg
do you think i could get a small extension?
As well as a new pair of trucks :)
johnny16tx 11-03-2007, 11:28 AM dont buy grind king ;)
kidding
dumbdog7723 11-04-2007, 09:11 AM Matching time is up. Terence you're out. Good game to you. Dylan, your set is due on the 6th. Atrain, you still have an extension.
johnny16tx 11-04-2007, 10:44 AM hey dd
i might need an extention untill tuesday
becouse my street board snaped lastnight
ill try my best to get one before that but if i dont
ill be getting one from my shop tuesday
ill tell ya if i do need one :)
*i know im running the game but i feel weird asking myself for an extention*
Don't you have a back-up set ? I swear I saw a 360 shove / switch 360 shove in one of your vids, you should post that :) Alright I'll admit it, I'm just saying this because I don't want to have to match something like a 540 double / switch 540 double :D
johnny16tx 11-04-2007, 11:38 AM ^^
i told you to keep that a secret! dont tell them the tricks i tell you online ;)
hehe
and no i dont have backup sets
i like keeping my tricks fresh =]
dumbdog7723 11-06-2007, 07:10 PM Erm, I think you have to set soon Dylan.
johnny16tx 11-06-2007, 07:15 PM i am about to film my set
my camera is charging
it died
give me 2hours
atrain 11-07-2007, 04:18 PM good set johnny! i had never attempted either of these and the nollie flip xfoot really gave me trouble for 30 mins or so. quite an awkward trick i must say
Sounds like a good way to dislocate my ankles, therefore I don't even think I want to give this a try, it seems perfectly doable though, I guess I'll just see what I can do ;)
EDIT - Hey, I just watched the vids, I'm not so sure if your second trick should count Dylan, you landed stationary, reverted out and fell off. Also atrain's first trick was a nollie flip body varial, definitely not a nollie flip crossfoot.
atrain 11-07-2007, 05:15 PM Sounds like a good way to dislocate my ankles, therefore I don't even think I want to give this a try, it seems perfectly doable though, I guess I'll just see what I can do ;)

it does look kind of lame how i spin out of it and dont keep it held in the rideaway like the fakie one, but i definitely still landed in crossfoot...
http://media.putfile.com/mirror-28 watch this one, i land the same exact way but just hold it a little longer. and theres no way you can say im not landing in crossfoot here
johnny16tx 11-07-2007, 05:32 PM i didnt fall out
i just pivoted and ran into the lawn mower =]
my body never left my board
Well sorry for having to piss on your bonfires again, because I don't enjoy it and I know how annoying it is, but I personally wouldn't call this a crossfoot :
http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q311/mrck41/atrainbodyvarial.jpg
Look at the side your toes are facing, basically you did a body varial without unwinding your shoulders all the way. I would count that other one you posted though ;)
About Dylan's set, you're right, for some reason I thought you had fell off the board after the pivot, my bad, however I still wouldn't count it because you didn't roll away from the last trick, you landed stationary, had to revert and tick tack away.
I'm a pain in the neck :tongue:
johnny16tx 11-08-2007, 07:42 AM ^^^
well i do could it
and theres no way for me to reset considering i dont have a deck
soo
it counts ;)
atrain 11-08-2007, 03:01 PM Look at the side your toes are facing, basically you did a body varial without unwinding your shoulders all the way. I would count that other one you posted though ;)
It's a bad angle, but my toes are facing the right way... my right foot is in the front facing away from the camera, my left foot is crossed behind and facing mostly forward angled slightly away from the camera... the second clip i showed, that you agree counts, is exactly the same lol, i just hold it longer and land closer to the camera at a better angle. if youre really going to be that picky ill refilm it, i just dont want to have to cause i already did it
You don't have to go refilm it, as I said I regard that other clip you posted as legit, so don't bother, that's enough for me :)
As far as I'm concerned I gave this a few tries today and it appears that I probably won't be able to match, I can do the fakie flip crossfoot fine but the nollie flip crossfoot seems out of reach for me, it's even more awkward to do than what I expected (even though I recently learned nollie 360 kiwi flip crossfoots, which are supposed to be harder). By the way I'll be away from tomorrow evening to tuesday afternoon, so I may need a short extension for the next set ;)
EDIT - wait, the next set is mine... I'll try filming something tomorrow, if I can't then you'll have to wait until tuesday / wednesday I'm afraid.
johnny16tx 11-10-2007, 11:57 AM match time ends tonight!
=]
is nobody going to try?
johnny16tx 11-10-2007, 10:34 PM since mrck and atrain have extentions no letters
mrck ur set
dumbdog7723 11-11-2007, 10:51 AM Is MRCK taking a letter for the X leg tricks?
johnny16tx 11-11-2007, 12:18 PM idk
i think he had an extention till tuesday?
dumbdog7723 11-11-2007, 12:18 PM I thought it was an extension for his set.
johnny16tx 11-11-2007, 01:42 PM oh ok
i guess it was
thanks
does atrain still have an extention or no?
atrain 11-11-2007, 02:15 PM ...i did it already. and i thought we agreed it counted
johnny16tx 11-11-2007, 05:19 PM ^^
yeah i know you did
im just saying
i wasnt sure if u got new trucks or not
atrain 11-12-2007, 09:39 AM oh, yeah i got new trucks the day i posted my match haha. new deck too! so im good to go for the next set
I'm back and will go film something this afternoon, expect either the unexpected, or something just as annoying :)
Roboman 11-13-2007, 08:41 AM Set a shove it... set a shove it... :D
^ Haha, did you follow SNGOS3 ? In the finals johnny16tx and me both set a switch fakie nollie flip and a switch switch 360 flip as a joke round, noone ever really noticed though.
OK I got a set on film, pretty disappointing I must say, but still awkward enough to be somewhat challenging I guess, I'm going to upload it right now :)
EDIT - Also dumbdog, I wouldn't count your first nollie flip crossfoot, for you landed stationary and off balance, but I want to know what the others think first.
atrain 11-13-2007, 01:31 PM ^dumbdog pretty much did the same thing johnny did, so, i guess it counts, and if not, that whole round wouldnt count, and i dont think thats a good solution
oh pressure flips, im taking a letter... i hate those things almost as much as kiwiflips (hint hint)... why couldnt you just do normal nollie and fakie hardflips?
Because I can't do nollie hards (hint hint ;)).
Also I originally wanted to set kiwi flips but I thought it would be too much of a cheap shot, also I didn't have too much time to skate today and as I said I was having a bad day anyway, I'm saving them for later though :tongue:

Hahaha! Switch switch 360flip, thats awesome. Was the switch fake nollieflip just a regular kickflip? That's what I've worked it out to be.
Reminds me about a day of skating about a year ago. Me and another guy were doing doubleflip variations and both did a doubleflip sexchange. Some unknown kid nearby heard one of us say it and yelled back, "A double sexchange? Thats stupid, why would you even bother?".
Hahaha! Switch switch 360flip, thats awesome. Was the switch fake nollieflip just a regular kickflip? That's what I've worked it out to be.
Yes it was, and noone either here or on Youtube seemed to get the joke, they all took it seriously like 'man switch flips aren't even hard, why are you setting that, oh btw I thought you were goofy footed ?', Varial_222 even almost lettered me for setting a trick in regular stance, ah well fun times :)
dumbdog7723 11-18-2007, 09:33 AM Matching time is up. Atrain, your set is due on the end of the 21st.
atrain 11-18-2007, 06:25 PM all right. i may need a slight extension because im traveling home for thanksgiving early this week and im pretty tight with classes tomorrow and tuesday so it doesnt leave me much of a window for skating... ill try to get find a little time but chances are i may need a day or two extension
Sounds fine to me, I need extra time for my ankle to heal up anyway.
atrain 11-19-2007, 05:35 PM well i did find a little time so i filmed my set. it wasnt what i wanted, but oh well
enjoy
Give me the letter on this one, I can't switch hardflip, therefore even if my ankle was in perfect condition I would have had a hard time matching this, I don't want to make everyone wait for a match I won't post ;)
johnny16tx 11-20-2007, 02:02 PM you sure mrck?
kk i changed it on the front page
anyhow i matched
damned shoes are to big =/
dumbdog7723 11-23-2007, 05:40 PM Matching time is up. I'll get my set tomorrow.
johnny16tx 11-25-2007, 08:13 PM nice set dd
nollie varial to fakie varial correct?
dumbdog7723 11-26-2007, 03:37 PM Yessssssssssssssssssssssss
johnny16tx 11-26-2007, 05:58 PM ight i matched :)
atrain 11-27-2007, 01:05 PM cool, fun set. ill match this today if i skate
I'm going to need an extension for this one, I could do it fine if my ankle was in good condition but I'm trying to avoid doing tricks done with the back foot, such as nollie flip variations, it shouldn't take more than a few days though I think, hope it's alright.
johnny16tx 11-27-2007, 01:21 PM does an extention till the 3rd sound good?
It should be perfect :) I'm not even sure if I'll need it, since it seems like I can feel my ankle perfectly fine today, hopefully a few nollie varials won't hurt much.
johnny16tx 11-30-2007, 09:32 PM mrck would u like us to wait untill monday for the next set?
due to your extention
Nah go ahead, my ankle seems fine now, I think I'll give the nollie varial / fakie varial a shot this afternoon then I won't need an extension anymore ;)
dumbdog7723 12-01-2007, 08:33 AM Matching time is up. Dylan, your set is due on the end of the 2nd.
johnny16tx 12-01-2007, 11:30 AM nah i have till the 3rd
set time started this today "aka saturday"
and you get 3days to set =]
hehe
johnny16tx 12-02-2007, 01:24 PM i need an extention
i have major projects due monday and tuesday
atrain 12-03-2007, 03:14 PM cool with me
johnny16tx 12-03-2007, 07:49 PM k
i think i will beable to get a set by wensday
tommorrow i have work =[
atrain 12-06-2007, 10:19 AM johnny, its been past the extension you asked for and you havnt said anything further, i think you get a letter now
which would make it mrck's set
Dang I keep forgetting about this game, I haven't even filmed the nollie varial / fakie varial yet even though it's been a while, just letter me for that I guess, it's raining like a shower outside and I can't go skate anywhere. I have a few back-up sets for this turn, nothing like I would have liked to set (either shove-it late flip / switch shove-it late flip, nollie bs 180 back foot impossible / fs halfcab front foot impossible, or 360 underflip / switch 360 underflip) but it will do.
johnny16tx 12-06-2007, 04:14 PM nice set mrck
and yeah i havent been able to skate much
and the time i did i didnt want to bother setting
tho i didnt say we get lettered if we miss our set?
i havent lettered anyone else
or am i mixing up games?
denacem 12-07-2007, 07:08 AM i really regret that i didn't join this game. i could've matched a lot of those tricks, even the pressure hards, and i had plenty ideas for sets. even if i was quite inactive the last weeks, i think i would still be in it.
hope you guys make a second round, i'll definately join this! cheers

hope you guys make a second round, i'll definately join this! cheersI wish i would have joined too but i thought i wasn't good enough at switch/nollie tricks at the time. Im gonna be in the second one for sure though also.
imdesigner 12-07-2007, 09:42 AM lmfao - i love the hand sign... good times...
atrain 12-07-2007, 02:23 PM well good thing my board is broken! haha. not that it matters, i cant do switch backfoot impossibles anyway. looks like another letter for poor old me...
fakiebigspin211 12-07-2007, 09:52 PM im in
Sev7n 12-07-2007, 10:13 PM it's already most of the way near done
dumbdog7723 12-08-2007, 01:38 PM I'm out.
atrain 12-11-2007, 11:23 AM the score if nobody matches this set by tonight (your tally looks a lil off DD):
mrck skat
-nollie double, fakie double
-nollie flip xleg, fakie flip xleg
-switch/reg hardflip
-nollie/fakei varial flip
johnny skat
-ff impossible/sw ff impossible
-nollie/fakie pressure hard
-no set
-impossibles
atrain skat
-nollie/fakie double
-reg/sw ff impossible
-nollie/fakie pressure hard
-impossibles
I so wish I could have filmed the nollie varial / fakie varial :( Ah well it's a really tight game, I guess the issue will be pretty interesting regardless of what happens.
atrain 12-11-2007, 04:13 PM wow! im very pleased. id say i was against the odds on this one... not only was the nose of my deck completely snapped off, but i couldnt even rotate switch impossibles stationary with one foot without hitting myself in the knee before today
i somehow managed to learn them and get some in a line after about an hour
Glad to see you got it, now that's what I call dedication ! Can't wait until the next set, for some reason I can already feel that Dylan is going to take me out.
atrain 12-11-2007, 04:18 PM actually..... im up next :tongue:
Then I can't wait to see your set, do you have it on film already ? :)
atrain 12-11-2007, 04:31 PM nah haha, i couldnt really do anything on that board except shoves and tres and impossibles. i just finished finals and i go home tomorrow night, so i may be able to film for my set either thursday or friday hopefully... although the weather is much different back home, so i hope to be able to find an indoor place to film
atrain 12-18-2007, 10:59 PM johnny... forget about the game? you must have, because i know you could have matched this set easy
well, thats s-k-a-t-e. for johnny. i have s-k-a, mrck you have s-k-a-t and its your set
johnny16tx 12-18-2007, 11:13 PM ^^^^
yeah i didnt have a "street" skateboard for nearly 2weeks
ha
and didnt want to ask for extentions.. i felt bad asking for them in my own game more then once
after yall had to wait for the set i missed
i figured it was a lost cause
oddly enough a local company just sent me a new deck to try
so its my first time riding a street board since december 7th or something
sorry guys
RobbySkateboard 12-18-2007, 11:17 PM Dylan you're a FAILURE!!!!!!
Wow, I like how this game turned out (not the results, I mean how well it actually worked instead of just... dying)
johnny16tx 12-18-2007, 11:20 PM ^^^
haha yeah
i owe alot of that to dumbdog
somehow during the game i lost my board,and rolled my ankle twice
he pretty much held it together when i couldnt
and controled peoples sets
so thanks alot
haha
i went from ska to skate so fast!
:D
johnny... forget about the game? you must have, because i know you could have matched this set easy
well, thats s-k-a-t-e. for johnny. i have s-k-a, mrck you have s-k-a-t and its your set
I'll try to get a little something on film either today or tomorrow, no idea of what it's going to be yet :)
I filmed my set today, expect a mean (and incredibly ugly) 360 kiwi flip / switch 360 kiwi flip to be uploaded in a few minutes ;)
atrain 12-25-2007, 10:21 PM well i obviously get a letter from your set. and sorry i havnt been online in the last few days nor have i gotten the chance to skate. i should be able to get something in the next few days though
No problem, looking forward to it ;)
atrain 12-29-2007, 11:02 AM not yet! im pretty sure im going to an indoor park tonight and if i do ill be able to film my set there. if my friend cant go and i dont make it i'll definitely get something tomorrow afternoon at the latest
sorry to be holding up the game so much, its been busy for me and i havnt been able to skate as much as usual
johnny16tx 12-29-2007, 11:04 AM i love how istarted this at the end of summer
and its lasting into the new year!
atrain 12-30-2007, 09:00 PM well i filmed my set, finally haha. im uploading it now
Interesting set, I can't do nollie hards but I have good nollie backside flips now and they seem easier than switch hards, and I can do fakie hards, therefore I may be able to match, but I wouldn't be too optimistic either, you're probably going to win this one :)
Royalgriffin 12-31-2007, 03:46 PM Now we just need someone else to win switch/nollie game of skate :D
atrain 01-04-2008, 04:17 PM this game is officially over. Thanks to everyone who played, it was fun
Royalgriffin 01-04-2008, 05:33 PM Woohoo! Good job atrain!
johnny16tx 01-11-2008, 01:31 PM would anyone like a mirror gos 2?
