View Full Version : NGOS 2 discussion thread
Shorty's_Kid 03-30-2008, 04:36 PM Alright everyone, NGOS 2 is now in session!
Another reminder about 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 3 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 shorty's_kid's time zone! (GMT-5)
8. When you match or set a trick, post it up in the thread called “Novice Game of SKATE 2 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.
10. I would just like to emphazise this, NO TOE OR HEEL TOUCHES NO MATTER WHAT! Please try and set and match as cleanly as possible. If your toe or heel touches, don't even bother posting it, IT WILL NOT COUNT!
Here is the setting order:
1. 22's_son!
2. SSkateSS
3. Gnar
4. sk8_zero
5. Jakedaskater
6. Arejayismyname
7. J-Ros
8. Shorty's_Kid
9. kk_360
10. Derrick14
11. Honeymustard
And here is the handsign:

arejayismyname 03-30-2008, 04:38 PM yes!
finially.
6 isnt too bad
Derrick14 03-30-2008, 04:41 PM thats bull! i'll be out before i even set!
arejayismyname 03-30-2008, 04:44 PM be posotive man.
if you think youre gunna get out then you will.
its called confidence
Shorty's_Kid 03-30-2008, 04:45 PM thats bull! i'll be out before i even set!
LOL
When i was pulling out the peices of paper, I couldn't help but start laughing when I had gotten to like, number 8 and still no Derrick. I was just like "ahhhhahahaha, he's gonna freakin kill me!"
Derrick14 03-30-2008, 04:46 PM well, i guess i have a chance to set once at least, i have learnt like 5 new tricks in 2 days :).
Merging doublepost
LOL
When i was pulling out the peices of paper, I couldn't help but start laughing when I had gotten to like, number 8 and still no Derrick. I was just like "ahhhhahahaha, he's gonna freakin kill me!"
were you actually laughing at the fact that im out before i even set?
Shorty's_Kid 03-30-2008, 04:49 PM ^Nah, I was laughing because you begged me to put you in the first 5 so you could set, and the exact opposite happened. Had I not let Honeymustard in, you would've been the very last. Which to me, is just downright hilarious.
If it makes you feel better, i've been in 3 GOS's, and 8 is the highest up I've ever been.
arejayismyname 03-30-2008, 04:49 PM i probubly wouldve been.
lol
but wheres the trick thread?
Shorty's_Kid 03-30-2008, 04:49 PM ^Right below this thread, haha.
arejayismyname 03-30-2008, 04:51 PM sorry, kinda spaced out
honeymustard 03-30-2008, 05:06 PM Yay, I'm in! Hopefully I'll stay in long enough to set.
Shorty's_Kid 03-30-2008, 05:11 PM ^At first I wasn't going to let you in, but then I remembered how Sev7n let me in the first NGOS (the one we had to restart) even though the sign ups were full.
22's! Son 03-30-2008, 06:02 PM sweet ill try to get my set in ASAP
Hell yeah.
3rd to set.
I'm looking forward to see how this game goes down.
Also, SK, could you put the links to the discussion and tricks threads in your sig?
It would really help out.
22's! Son 03-30-2008, 06:57 PM ahh my set is really easy... it was wet and all i could get
22's, when will it be up?
EDIT: Forget about it. Saw it on youtube.
Derrick14 03-30-2008, 06:59 PM easy set? :D
i hope so.
if i can do it, i freaking love you
22's! Son 03-30-2008, 07:02 PM 360 underflip...... mine looks like a tre kind of, but if you watch my front foot i never actually flick with it and my back foot does all the work
Shorty's_Kid 03-30-2008, 07:05 PM That was a horrible angle for that trick, its ok if you leave that one, but there isn't a possibility you can get one from the side, is there?
22's! Son 03-30-2008, 07:08 PM no probably not today, it's a 360 underflip, you don't have to worry, i felt my back foot flip it up
maybe tomorrow ill get a different angle, but just keep this one for now
Derrick14 03-30-2008, 07:15 PM ,k , got 3 on film, hope one is atleast good enough. cant post it untill tomorrow, no USB cable here
i gotta be honest though, that looks like a tre to me
Shorty's_Kid 03-30-2008, 07:17 PM It looks fairly tre-ish to me, also. But, try and see if you can get a side-angle tomorrow.
Derrick14 03-30-2008, 07:19 PM dont worry SK, on all 3 of mine you can see the underflip fine
Shorty's_Kid 03-30-2008, 07:28 PM ^Haha, alrighty. :)
22's! Son 03-30-2008, 07:31 PM no it's an underflip, i didn't flick at all with my front foot, the angle is just bad like he said
ill get a better angle tomorrow + my tres look waaayyyy better than that thing
Derrick14 03-30-2008, 07:35 PM thank you 22, I love you for posting a trick i know how to do. :D
Shorty's_Kid 03-30-2008, 07:37 PM I haven't done a 360 underflip in quite a long time, might be challenging, but I think i'll match.
arejayismyname 03-30-2008, 07:49 PM looks kinda like a tre but ill take it.
ill go match now
22's! Son 03-30-2008, 07:51 PM like i said, easy set haha
ill probably film one again at the skatepark tomorrow for you guys
Derrick14 03-30-2008, 07:52 PM i wanna put it up on youtube so bad right now and be the first to match!!!
I haven't done a 360 underflip in quite a long time, might be challenging, but I think i'll match.
Same here.
I'm not a big fan of doing underflips, but I've done them, and probably can still do them.
I'll try to match tomorrow if possible.
kk360 03-30-2008, 07:59 PM Crap, I've never tried these i'll have to give them a go tomorrow hopefully I'll learn it and use it against my friends.
Any tips guys, is it easy to learn?
Derrick14 03-30-2008, 08:02 PM no tips!
have fun, i learned these by myself and landed it first time i ever tryed, watch some videos and watch their feet, thats all you need.
DAMMIT! I JUST GAVE YOU A TIP
kk360 03-30-2008, 08:04 PM no tips!
have fun, i learned these by myself and landed it first time i ever tryed, watch some videos and watch their feet, thats all you need.
DAMMIT! I JUST GAVE YOU A TIP
I looked at one slow mo. It looks like you kinda start a kickflip then get your backfoot under the board to flip tre style?
Am I right? Looks like a sick trick.
Shorty's_Kid 03-30-2008, 08:06 PM ^Nah, all the flip's gotta come from your back foot, you gotta scoop it in just a way to get your back foot underneath the tail so you can flick up and flip the board.
22's! Son 03-30-2008, 08:06 PM i wanna put it up on youtube so bad right now and be the first to match!!!
wow you should seriously calm down.......... it's a game of skate... over the internet.... it's not that big of a deal hahahaha
jakedaskater 03-30-2008, 08:08 PM i went and landed a few into the grass nad almost got it on cement
only got to try for a few minutes before it got dark
22's! Son 03-30-2008, 08:09 PM everyone will probably match.... you have four days haha
kk360 03-30-2008, 08:17 PM I think I'm gonna be able to match I learn tricks crazy fast.
jakedaskater 03-30-2008, 08:24 PM i don't learn fast but this trick seems a bit easy
kk360 03-30-2008, 08:26 PM Learning this would pis off my friends so bad. Thats what makes me learn tricks faster lol.
22's! Son 03-30-2008, 08:29 PM hey what do you know... i actually learned this trick in an online GOS about a year ago... a little site called skatepage.net, but it's no longer running
Derrick14 03-30-2008, 08:30 PM thats what drove me to become as good of a skater as i am
arejayismyname 03-30-2008, 08:39 PM Crap, I've never tried these i'll have to give them a go tomorrow hopefully I'll learn it and use it against my friends.
Any tips guys, is it easy to learn?
just do a tre, but instead of flicking your front foot, keep your back foot low and kick up a little bit
honeymustard 03-31-2008, 06:55 AM I hope I land this one. I'm pretty close.
My goal for this game is to set.
7evenUp 03-31-2008, 09:36 AM it doesnt say im not allowed to join a game if i won anywhere s_k, i checked the sticky at the top of the section... so can i still get in? i'd take a letter on the 360 underflip
sskatess 03-31-2008, 10:19 AM ahh i can only do these nollie........ or can i????
umm yeah i'll try. reckon i can get it in 4 days.
J-Ros 03-31-2008, 10:25 AM woot.. i'm pretty happy i got in the game ^^ It's uploading now so it should be on in like 10 mins :)
EDIT: I MATCHED :)
Derrick14 03-31-2008, 02:02 PM u know jros, slow motion usually helps us to see, though im about 80% sure it was an underflip, slo-mo couldnt hurt
J-Ros 03-31-2008, 02:35 PM u know jros, slow motion usually helps us to see, though im about 80% sure it was an underflip, slo-mo couldnt hurt
I cna't even do real 360 flips.. but if you really want to i can upload a single slowmo of the trick.. just for you :)
EDIT: I uploaded the slowmo.. btw, i didn't heeltouched.. my pants are just to long xD
Derrick14 03-31-2008, 02:44 PM dude! you should have not just said you cant tre flip!
J-Ros 03-31-2008, 02:51 PM dude! you should have not just said you cant tre flip!
I will not make a secret about it.. :P I land them like 1 out of 20.. so setting the trick won't give me much problems ;)
Derrick14 03-31-2008, 03:15 PM hooray for jros, he did, do it
sskatess 03-31-2008, 03:16 PM ugh i can't get this, but i did film two possible sets, yay.
Shorty's_Kid 03-31-2008, 03:31 PM I'm gonna have to get an extension on this, rained yesterday, raining today, no sign of it stoping any time soon.
I might need an extension on the next tricks too. Look how crappy my weather is the next 10 days!

it doesnt say im not allowed to join a game if i won anywhere s_k, i checked the sticky at the top of the section... so can i still get in? i'd take a letter on the 360 underflip
Sorry dude, already got 11 people.
My bad man. But since I screwed you over this round, I'll make sure your on the list for the next game.
The rules used to be if you won a game then you had to skip the next one, thought it was still that way. (Maybe I'm imagining things).
Oh, and nice match J-ros. The angle was crappy, but I could still tell it was an underflip. Usually, a side angle works best for tricks.
22's! Son 03-31-2008, 05:27 PM hey guess what... i managed to go to the skatepark a little bit today before it started STORMING out again.... and i got a better angle on the 360 underflip, ill just post it up in this thread later on tonight
Geez.
I really gotta brush up on some tricks.
I was sure I could get back, easy.
But I went out today and got nothing.
I won't be surprised if I get stuck with a letter.
Shorty's_Kid 03-31-2008, 05:36 PM ^Bahh, just keep practicing dude. You'll get it.
kk360 03-31-2008, 07:00 PM I was close but the camera died...
I have trouble getting my foot under the board, which sucks alot.
jakedaskater 03-31-2008, 08:08 PM i got hit really hard in the shin with this
kk360 03-31-2008, 08:10 PM Not me but I landed into rail and fell. Wasn't too painful but I would of prefered it never happenned lol.
22's! Son 03-31-2008, 08:35 PM ahhh SHIat... i still haven't gotten around to uploading the other angle
here is my second angle for you guys, watch closely, i don't flick at all with my front foot
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qY6YdcQf1qM
Shorty's_Kid 03-31-2008, 08:56 PM ^That one is much better.
I merged the two posts for you.
Gah.
I'm gonna be pissed if I don't get this one.
I mean, it's just the first set, but I was sure I would be able to bring these back.
Shorty's_Kid 03-31-2008, 09:26 PM ^Quick question, do you have a garage?
^Quick question, do you have a garage?
If that was aimed towards me, than why yes, I do have a garage.
Shorty's_Kid 03-31-2008, 09:29 PM ^Haha that sucks, I was about to offer you an extension due to the fact the forecast for Atlanta = Pure Crap until saturday.
But, since you've got a garage, no can do. :(
^Haha that sucks, I was about to offer you an extension due to the fact the forecast for Atlanta = Pure Crap until saturday.

Damn you parents for buying a house with a garage!(I also have an unfinished basement) :tongue:
Yeah, the weather is going to ****.
But , I still got tomorrow and the next day.
And hey, even if I do get a letter for this, so what?
Shorty's_Kid 03-31-2008, 09:35 PM ^Haha
I'd kill for a garage and basement, man. But, I'm stuck in a Trailer.
^ That's a bummer, dude.
I always skate in the basement if it's rainy, dark, just whatever.
And, I was just checking out your sig and saw that I have all day until 9 Thurs. to match this.
Derrick14 03-31-2008, 09:44 PM could you all tell i did the underflip? i can slo-mo it for some reason
Shorty's_Kid 03-31-2008, 09:48 PM ^Yeah, it counts. I had to pause it right at the right second (took a few tries), but I could see your back foot under the board before it started the flip.
^ That's a bummer, dude.
I always skate in the basement if it's rainy, dark, just whatever.
And, I was just checking out your sig and saw that I have all day until 9 Thurs. to match this.
What's REALLY the bummer is that in this area, for every neighborhood of trailers/small houses, RIGHT next to it is something huge.
1 mile up the road from my trailer-park-ish-type-road, there is a big neighborhood. Price of the smallest house was probably around $230,000.
Another neighborhood near me, average house and land price is from $40-$80 thousand. There are two entrances to the nieghborhood, at the end of one, the richest neighborhood in the county, and the 3rd richest neighborhood in the county. At the other entrance, you guessed it, the 2nd riches neighborhood in the county.
Talk about pwnage.
honeymustard 04-01-2008, 07:22 AM I'm pretty close to this. I landed on it with both feet yesterday but it slipped out from underneath me.
And I've been trying it so hard lately that my thighs are sore and I'm kind of walking with a limp!
But I iced my thighs last night so now they're not as bad.
I hope I can get this by thursday!
J-Ros 04-01-2008, 10:11 AM I'd kill for a garage and basement, man.
Me too.. i have no indoor place to skate.. except my living room.. but my parent's don't allow me to skate there.. weird ehh..? xD
Anyways.. my true question was, did my match count?
7evenUp 04-01-2008, 10:17 AM I'm gonna have to get an extension on this, rained yesterday, raining today, no sign of it stoping any time soon.

its all good, ill go for advanced next time i guess.

and my legs still hurt like that from trying my mystery set
sskatess 04-01-2008, 02:23 PM ok i have my match uploading as well as like 3 possible sets.
this 360 underflip took me so long, i slipped out so many times.
i've just noticed that on one of my possible sets i do handsign but out of view of the camera lol.
22's! Son 04-01-2008, 02:49 PM let me guess derrick.... hardflip....
jakedaskater 04-01-2008, 02:51 PM i'm sick
might take a letter from this set
Derrick14 04-01-2008, 02:51 PM let me guess derrick.... hardflip....
not even close, way harder. its what did my legs in which takes ALOT of strength:icon_twis:icon_burn:icon_burn
sskatess 04-01-2008, 02:52 PM not even close, way harder. its what did my legs in which takes ALOT of strength
.....ollie???
match WMMing atm
kk360 04-01-2008, 03:26 PM .....ollie???
match WMMing atm
OMG if he ever sets that we are all screwed...what if he does it switch?:icon_frow
Ok now in all seriousnessorzskcajkbvs, is it a doulbe something because flicking requires a good amount of strengh?
Shorty's_Kid 04-01-2008, 03:39 PM Alright, its stopped raining but its gonna start again here in a few hours, so imma go try as much as I can.
im pretty sure you only have till wednesday at 6 PM
and my legs still hurt like that from trying my mystery set
Nah, its thursday. He set it Sunday Night, so I didn't count sunday as one of the four days to match.
And 5 e-bucks says your mystery set is a 360 double flip. :)
And 5 e-bucks says your mystery set is a 360 double flip. :)
I was thinking the same thing, man.
sskatess 04-01-2008, 03:47 PM ahhh i learnt them yesterday (landed one) so yeah woop
ahhh i learnt them yesterday (landed one) so yeah woop
Are you freaking serious?!
That means 2 letters right off the bat for me!
sskatess 04-01-2008, 03:49 PM lol yeah, also getting really close to hard double flips.
kk360 04-01-2008, 04:04 PM And 5 e-bucks says your mystery set is a 360 double flip. :)
Nope, I asked on msn. But I bet it's a double something though.
sskatess 04-01-2008, 04:05 PM Nope, I asked on msn. But I bet it's a double something though.
double ollie... he told me.. in real life... promise!
edit: his set isn't for ages anyway lol, it's my set next :)
Nope, I asked on msn. But I bet it's a double something though.
Then how do you explain his above posts?
Shorty's_Kid 04-01-2008, 04:43 PM Could be a 540 flip?
Just try to remember guys, nothing TOO advanced for the first round. Don't bring out the HARD tricks until the 2nd round. 1st round is just supposed to be somewhat of a challenge, but nothing serious.
Save your awesome sets for later.
Anyway,
I went outside, figuring I'd get the hang of how to flip one of these little buggers. Stuck it 4th try, haha.
My match is up now. Its a little sketchy but oh well. And I know my front foot flicks forward a little, but that's a natural motion for me. It even does it on pop shuvits, it didn't help flip the board at all.
Derrick14 04-01-2008, 05:18 PM soooo...just out of curiosity.....540 flips are not/...aloud?
Shorty's_Kid 04-01-2008, 05:19 PM ^True, not at least until the 2nd/3rd round. After the 2nd round, anything goes.
Derrick14 04-01-2008, 05:28 PM =O
>=(
but i'll be out by then!!!!
kk360 04-01-2008, 05:34 PM Then how do you explain his above posts?
Whos post?
And I can't skate tonight SNOW STORM! I may need an extension if it continues tomorrow I'll most likely be needing one because the snow won't melt by thursday :(
Whos post?
Forget about it.
22's! Son 04-01-2008, 06:34 PM not even close, way harder. its what did my legs in which takes ALOT of strength:icon_twis:icon_burn:icon_burn
yeah........ im guessing a some sort of bigspin flip or double flip variation...
haha i tried and tried today on hardflips... i totally lost them... i haven't landed one since like october..... so there is an easy S for me... i imagine ill be out soon anyways, you guys on this site do like all the crazy tricks
Shorty's_Kid 04-01-2008, 08:57 PM ^Nah dude, no crazy people in this game like in the last one. (Sev7n, 7evenup, etc)
I'd love for someone to set a hardflip though. I've got those switch. :)
Derrick14 04-02-2008, 02:16 AM im not, i got a special set for everyone!
J-Ros 04-02-2008, 02:41 AM im not, i got a special set for everyone!
Luckely you are after me in the setting order ;)
Btw.. are pop shov late flips to hard for the first round?
Off topic: 100th post in the discussion thread ;)
Derrick14 04-02-2008, 03:38 AM nu uh, im 100'th
and i would think no they arent...
J-Ros 04-02-2008, 09:09 AM no.. you are 101th.. look in the right above corner thingie which says clearly: #101
but a pop shov late flip ISN'T to hard for first round?
7evenUp 04-02-2008, 09:26 AM ahhh i learnt them yesterday (landed one) so yeah woop
360 doubles? nice, those are hard to learn at first, but they killed my normal tre's:P

not to be a dickhead, but i dont think that counts... you fell off with one foot and pretended to push... but sionce that was 4th try, you shouldnt have problems redoing it
kk360 04-02-2008, 10:07 AM Shorty's_kid I don't think your match counts. You di like my friend when he doesen't land a trick he pushes after. I think you're gonna have to re-match.
Now about me, no school for me today(storm)so I'm definetly going to need an extension maybe until saturday night?
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 10:50 AM yeah...... i could care less shorty... just keep it as it is, you had your balance for a second haha then pushed
can SSkates set now? it's pretty close to the deadline, we only have like a day left
sskatess 04-02-2008, 11:06 AM already ahve a few things on film but ill try get something else.
as for switch in this stage what are the guidelines.
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 12:26 PM no one really knows....... just post it up when it's your time and we will see if it's to hard i guess
Merging doublepost
^True, not at least until the 2nd/3rd round. After the 2nd round, anything goes.
if someone can 540 flip, why aren't they in the advanced game...
sskatess 04-02-2008, 12:42 PM i have my set filmed, the one i am going to use. easier than the last set, but i assume most people in this can't do it yet. fun, really.
plus i have got close to an amazing set which i'll save for later.
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 01:01 PM well i say go ahead and post it up, it can't hurt to post it up
7evenUp 04-02-2008, 01:05 PM 10. I would just like to emphazise this, NO TOE TOUCHES! Please try and set and match as cleanly as possible. If your toe touches, don't even bother posting it, IT WILL NOT COUNT!
whats a toe-touch?
:)
sskatess 04-02-2008, 01:16 PM whats a toe-touch?
:)
lol i was gonna say, "7evenup you sure you wanna be in this? you know there's no toe touch" but i decided that would be mean so i thought against it lol.
kk360 04-02-2008, 01:22 PM whats a toe-touch?
:)
Only you would know:)
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 01:38 PM hahahahah! i learned a new trick, and what do you know, it will be my next set if i can actually make it to the next set!
sskatess 04-02-2008, 01:41 PM im probably gonna reset again, damn derrick learning the trick the same day i was going to set it lol.
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 01:51 PM what is the trick!! lol
i just looked at SSkates video... i want to know why you are giving the wrong handsign after the 360 underflips....... ???
sskatess 04-02-2008, 02:02 PM lol it's pretty much the same i just bent my fingers, i may have done that on my set too.
oh and the set was a fakie pressure flip
lol the hand symbol on my new set starts off crippled fingered but changes into the normal one lol
kk360 04-02-2008, 02:10 PM lol it's pretty much the same i just bent my fingers, i may have done that on my set too.
oh and the set was a fakie pressure flip
Oh God another new trick...
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 02:11 PM lol it's pretty much the same i just bent my fingers, i may have done that on my set too.
oh and the set was a fakie pressure flip
lol the hand symbol on my new set starts off crippled fingered but changes into the normal one lol
so your set is going to be a fakie pressure flip?
sskatess 04-02-2008, 02:17 PM no i changed it, ill post it on youtube now seeing as i'll probably be away/asleep when the set time starts and wanna post it nice and early.
kk360 04-02-2008, 02:21 PM What is it then?
7evenUp 04-02-2008, 02:22 PM no i changed it, ill post it on youtube now seeing as i'll probably be away/asleep when the set time starts and wanna post it nice and early.
what will it be? (lol im acting as though i was in this)
weird, i learned fakie pressures like 2 days ago as well, haha
time for nollie and switch ones!
Sonix 04-02-2008, 02:25 PM I'm not in this game so I cant effect much but I don't think theres anything wrong with sk's match. He did push after the land but, he was ridding away normally and if would lose balance he could easily put his backfoot on tail and pivot. At least it looked like he would roll away normally.
sskatess 04-02-2008, 02:27 PM what will it be? (lol im acting as though i was in this)
weird, i learned fakie pressures like 2 days ago as well, haha
time for nollie and switch ones!
can you only do switch ones with a body varial, i'll admit they are easier that way.
plus set will be on youtube in a minute comes with a pretty nice fall.
Derrick14 04-02-2008, 02:28 PM when are you setting sskatess? i want an excuse to get out of bed and skate...even though not everyone has matched yet..................
sskatess 04-02-2008, 02:29 PM the set is processing riiighht now so should be up any second.
not very hard to learn, i only learnt it today in like 5mins.
early set is up
7evenUp 04-02-2008, 02:48 PM haha nice, i was somewhat expecting that one:P
sskatess 04-02-2008, 02:51 PM told you i could do switch toeflips, not that you doubted me but yeah.
well this was pretty much a waste of a post.......
ill try brighten it up.
knock knock
whose there
ineedap
kk360 04-02-2008, 02:52 PM I can't even do them regular...
J-Ros 04-02-2008, 03:01 PM SSkateSS.. that is a really nice set.. i learned the normal ones a week ago and got them consistant now ;) I'm really looking forward to match tommorow :D
sskatess 04-02-2008, 03:01 PM thanks, :) if you've learnt them normal you'll get them nollie in no time.
J-Ros 04-02-2008, 03:07 PM That's what i'm gonna hope.. the most time i spend figuring out where to put my foot when learning them xD after i found that out.. 5 tries and voila :) My first one ;) Let's hope nollie goes the same or better.. i'm really looking forward to try! :D
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 03:17 PM wow.... i hate gay tricks like that..... not even going to attempt... just give me a letter
sskatess 04-02-2008, 03:24 PM wow.... i hate gay tricks like that..... not even going to attempt... just give me a letter
...k,lol
arejayismyname 04-02-2008, 03:29 PM i hate these kinda tricks with all my life.
but i dont think i should have any problem matcing
This is already becoming like the end of the last NGOS.
Can we please get a normal set?(ex. FS Heel, BS heel)
This gets me another letter.
But lucky me, my set is next.
Derrick14 04-02-2008, 03:41 PM this gets me a letter no doubt, but im still gunna try...
='(
kk360 04-02-2008, 03:43 PM if I can't match the 360 underflip im gonna have 2 letters...
sskatess 04-02-2008, 03:46 PM J-Ros seems to be the only person to take this set posively.
at least try it.
kk360 04-02-2008, 03:52 PM J-Ros seems to be the only person to take this set posively.
at least try it.
I will try and I will fail...most likely.

But lucky me, my set is next.
thank you!... i agree...
to sskates and jros... you guys do all the wierd tricks like, toe flips and body varial, double flip tricks... take it easy for now and then kick our asses... ahhaha
Merging doublepost
J-Ros seems to be the only person to take this set posively.
at least try it.
i must try... if you give me some tips on it
arejayismyname 04-02-2008, 04:41 PM i just tried.
and i stuck it a few times but didnt really have much luck.
im gunna tighten my trucks since i usually skate then loose and see how that turns out
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 04:41 PM i have one really crazy trick... or at least i think it's pretty hard i wish to set... hopefully i can last, but if the toe flips and stuff like that keep up, im out for sure haha
kk360 04-02-2008, 04:42 PM Hey SK do I get my extension until saturday?
I might try but I need foot placements please(picture if possible). Or else I will never get it.
I'm still trying to get this 360 underflip, and then I'll try the toe flip, even though it's something I have never tried before, but what they hay.

I still have to get the 360 underflip too. But the wheather is poo here so.

I got rain until Saturday, but I have a basement.
J-Ros 04-02-2008, 04:50 PM i must try... if you give me some tips on it
As far as i can do normal toe flips, you have to place your foot like not in the concave place thing.. they flip perfectly for me when i place my foot like half on my bolts.. but maybe that's just me ;)
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 05:26 PM it was a perfect day today... and i was sick.... and tomorrow... and wait the next day after that is 80% rain... just give me the letter
honeymustard 04-02-2008, 05:34 PM I'm probably going to rematch but any comments on my sketchy & slow match?
Would it count if I don't rematch?
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 05:34 PM i wouldn't count that.. you have to roll away
honeymustard 04-02-2008, 05:58 PM Mehhhh I know =[
Derrick14 04-02-2008, 07:55 PM someone set a pressure flip, there reallyreally fun
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 07:57 PM someone set a pressure flip, there reallyreally fun
wow... pressure flips are the gayest tricks ive ever seen... hell no, do a real trick
Derrick14 04-02-2008, 08:03 PM dont have to be a weiner about it, there fun. i might just set one for you now
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 08:05 PM wow im really scared of getting a letter in an online game of skate... oh my...
pussy trick, do a real trick... like lets say a nollie tre
Derrick14 04-02-2008, 08:06 PM are you saying you dont like them cuz you cant do them?
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 08:08 PM no im saying tricks like that are soo wierd... i don't even want to waste my time with them... unless it's down a ledge or gap or set or something now that would be sick, but just flatland pressure flips are pretty lame and i wouldn't waste my time with them
Shorty's_Kid 04-02-2008, 08:08 PM ^Something tells me you can't do them.
not to be a dickhead, but i dont think that counts... you fell off with one foot and pretended to push... but sionce that was 4th try, you shouldnt have problems redoing it
Due to the weird slants that my driveway has, where I was during the trick, I was going uphill. Kind of had to push. (You can see how I slow down dramatically as I roll up, do the trick, then land and almost come to an instant stop). Its also just a normal reaction for me now, I land stuff then push off (Unless I'm trying to make it look good).
If everyone wants me to re-match, your gonna have to wait until Sunday night at the earliest. Thats when it's supposed to stop raining.
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 08:09 PM no infact i can't do them and i won't waste my time with them lol
and im not the only one who thinks toe flips and pressure flips are stupid
Shorty's_Kid 04-02-2008, 08:10 PM SSkateSS, your set is WAY too early man. Your setting time doesn't start until Thursday night at 9:00.
And what the hell is a toe flip?
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 08:13 PM exactly what i thought haha^
Shorty's_Kid 04-02-2008, 08:20 PM Hey SK do I get my extension until saturday?
I might try but I need foot placements please(picture if possible). Or else I will never get it.
Haha dude you never asked for one (unless I skipped over it).
Weather sucky there too?
kk360 04-02-2008, 08:45 PM yeah,well I didn't really ask for it I said I might need it...well I don,t remember anymore and I'm too lazy to go check:tongue:
Shorty's_Kid 04-02-2008, 09:51 PM Lol 22's_son!, why do you have the standings in your sig?
And SSkateSS, please try and set during YOUR set time next time.
Derrick14 04-02-2008, 10:14 PM a toe flip is a pressure varial kickflip.
only his set is in nollie.
are 360 pressure flips to hard for first round?
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 10:15 PM yeah that would be ok i think^
Shorty's_Kid 04-02-2008, 10:18 PM Well, He's given us an extra day to try it. haha. (Err, you guys, I need an extension anyway due to weather)
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 10:21 PM im just going to take the letter on this one
ill try to film a 360 pressure flip tomorrow...... i know i said they are stupid but they are the only type of pressure flip i can actually almost do... wish me luck haha
Shorty's_Kid 04-02-2008, 10:23 PM ^But you've still got 10 more sets to go through! haha.
22's! Son 04-02-2008, 10:30 PM yeah i know, and that won't be my next set, ....... gahh i filmed my next set earlier today, i will tell you one thing, it does involve some sort of 360 in it
Derrick14 04-02-2008, 10:59 PM it sure as hell better not be a lazer flip!
J-Ros 04-03-2008, 01:10 AM it does involve some sort of 360 in it
360 Forward flip? :P
Shorty's_Kid 04-03-2008, 06:14 AM Both of the above tricks are way too advanced for this game. haha.
Until the 3rd round, at least.
sskatess 04-03-2008, 10:04 AM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p32JoZgFnxE
nollie tre, yeah i know i set it early but, seems like most people aren't even gonna bother trying it so it doesn't make a difference.
bguitarist34 04-03-2008, 10:08 AM yeah i know, and that won't be my next set, ....... gahh i filmed my next set earlier today, i will tell you one thing, it does involve some sort of 360 in iti knows your set! =D
22's! Son 04-03-2008, 11:06 AM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p32JoZgFnxE
nollie tre, yeah i know i set it early but, seems like most people aren't even gonna bother trying it so it doesn't make a difference.
wait? i thought your set was a nollie toe flip? so you changed it to a nollie tre? im confused
kk360 04-03-2008, 11:22 AM I think he's asking if a nollie tre is too hard for this round.
sskatess 04-03-2008, 11:26 AM no i was guessing your set
22's! Son 04-03-2008, 01:03 PM oh, it's not a nollie tre hehe
Derrick14 04-03-2008, 01:52 PM swtich tre?
J-Ros 04-03-2008, 02:30 PM Hmm.. i matched with someone else's camera.. he had some really weird wire to attach it to his computer.. but he lost it xD So i couldn't get it on the computer.. so i edited on the telly.. and then filmed my telly. The quality is still pretty good and you can see everything.. only there is no sound (i added music :P) and the video shakes.. xD I just uploaded it.. so i can post it in like 5 mins in the trick thread. Does this matter or do i have to rematch?
arejayismyname 04-03-2008, 02:40 PM no infact i can't do them and i won't waste my time with them lol
and im not the only one who thinks toe flips and pressure flips are stupid
hes right.
i hate these tricks.
pressure tricks are stupid.
they have no rhythm .
its all about foot placement
sskatess 04-03-2008, 02:46 PM Hmm.. i matched with someone else's camera.. he had some really weird wire to attach it to his computer.. but he lost it xD So i couldn't get it on the computer.. so i edited on the telly.. and then filmed my telly.

close but it's just the roll away, im sure you could get another.

why does everyone hate pressure flips, underflips too are all about foot placement
pressure flip double set:

J-Ros 04-03-2008, 02:50 PM close but it's just the roll away, im sure you could get another.
As you can see there are rubber tiles on the bottom of the stairs.. i just got stuck there :P I can try to rematch tomorow.. but this one doesn't count? I mean.. rubber doesn't roll :p
sskatess 04-03-2008, 02:52 PM ahh well, it's up to SK
Shorty's_Kid 04-03-2008, 02:59 PM I'll check it out in a little bit, i'm about to leave.
So what is a toe flip exactly, nollie pressure varial flip?
I absolutley hate pressure flips. They feel like crap to do, and they don't look good either.
I'm taking a letter on the toe flip, I don't even WANT to try it.
22's! Son 04-03-2008, 03:01 PM id count it.... we know he can do them

read my past comments, i said it's cool if they are down ledges, gaps, or sets, but just flatland pressure stuff is ghey... haha

J-Ros 04-03-2008, 03:07 PM So what is a toe flip exactly, nollie pressure varial flip?
A toe flip is a varial kickflipped.. flipped by putting pressure on the backfoot. You have to place your foot like on the bolts, and then push down very hard and a little backwards.. then it gets a varial flip motion (if you push correcly with the good ammount of force (you gonna have some trouble finding these)). Nollie toe flip is just a nollie varial flip, done with pressure with the front foot on the front bolts :)
good luck with them!
22's! Son 04-03-2008, 03:34 PM i suggest that people say whether or not they are going to match or if they will just take the letter, to speed the game up a bit
Derrick14 04-03-2008, 05:33 PM k, im not matching, letter for me.
honeymustard 04-03-2008, 05:41 PM I'll try. I'm good with toe flips. I've just never tried them nollie or switch.
Sonix 04-03-2008, 06:12 PM ^ I don't think your rematch counts. As much as I can see you stopped and had to tick tack to roll away.
^ I don't think your rematch counts. As much as I can see you stopped and had to tick tack to roll away.
I agree with him.
You did tic tack away.
Shorty's_Kid 04-03-2008, 06:37 PM Sorry mustard, your re-match doesn't count.
You've got 1 1/2 hours to get another one though!
jakedaskater 04-03-2008, 06:43 PM i'm still sick, but i probably wouldn't have gotten this trick anyway
arejayismyname 04-03-2008, 07:08 PM my match will be up ina short while.
but this had to of been one of the stupidest tricks ive ever tried
22's! Son 04-03-2008, 08:01 PM it's 9 here.... ppl get letters now
honeymustard 04-03-2008, 08:13 PM AH! Damn it. I could've sworn this one would count. =[
kk360 04-03-2008, 08:18 PM Give me too letters...
22's! Son 04-03-2008, 08:25 PM we can't "officially" give anyone letters yet for the toe flip... the deadline is not over
i know it sucks..... that's why i say we should just say or not if we are going to match or to just take the letter
Shorty's_Kid 04-03-2008, 08:41 PM Uhh 22's, why do you have the standings in your sig? I'm the one running the game, not you. lol.
J-ros, think you can re-match? You landed in a complete dead stop. Which means it doesn't count. If you can do what I did for the 360 underflip, and just ride some of the way and then push (it looks like your going up a shallow bank, which is why I'm allowing you to do this), then I'll count it. But a dead stop, sorry bro.
22's! Son 04-03-2008, 11:12 PM idk why
Derrick14 04-03-2008, 11:45 PM Hey SK, can you just give me an early letter on the nollie toeflip, there is no way in hell im going to land it

I can try, but can't promise anything.. the weather's gonna suck today. Btw, does Arejayismyname's match counts? For me it looks like he's gonna fall after he's losing balance.. but i can't decide about that :) Gonna try to rematch later this day.
22's! Son 04-04-2008, 07:02 AM what's up with sk8zero, he hasn't been here for 6 days now?

i said i cut it a bit too early by accident but i wouldnt have a problem rematching at all
kk360 04-04-2008, 11:12 AM I know but I'm getting them anyway. Even when I try a normal toeflip it does an inward heel and my front foot is on the BOLTS!
22's! Son 04-04-2008, 12:17 PM I know but I'm getting them anyway. Even when I try a normal toeflip it does an inward heel and my front foot is on the BOLTS!

He just beats around it.
Derrick14 04-04-2008, 03:26 PM its no big deal if he does. its just a quicker way to see how pwoplw are doing, its more convineant for us to
its no big deal if he does. its just a quicker way to see how pwoplw are doing, its more convineant for us to
But SK got a point, it seems like sometimes he is trying to run the game.
Derrick14 04-04-2008, 03:28 PM but he isnt, and he cant. so why not just let it go
J-Ros 04-04-2008, 03:31 PM Who caresif he does it? I think it's something positive. In like very topic now i see the standings and then i'm like.. yeah, i still got no letters at all xD
but he isnt, and he cant. so why not just let it go
I'm not making a big deal outta it, I was just stating.
22's! Son 04-04-2008, 04:22 PM haha i already responded
idk why... which = i dont know why.... i just did it for no reason, not trying to run the game or anything.... lmao wow if it's that big of a problem then ill just remove it from my signature
arejayismyname 04-04-2008, 05:50 PM i thought it was kinda helpfull
J-Ros 04-05-2008, 03:20 AM Shorty's_kid.. it started raining few hours ago.. :s Could you consider give me a small extension for my re-match?
22's! Son 04-05-2008, 07:44 AM you still have two more days left, so i wouldn't worry to much about an extension yeT^
I may have a bit of a problem here.
Yesterday when I was skating, filming for a possible set, my tripod got knocked over.
Now, my camera is ruined.
I know I can't match the toe-flip, but my set is up next, and I am camera-less.
22's! Son 04-05-2008, 01:48 PM oh crap, that sucks^
Derrick14 04-05-2008, 01:51 PM i guess your out if you got no camera =/

Well, see if you can borrow a friends camera or something.
If you can't get a camerawithin a week or so, you'd probably be better of just quitting the game.
I think I found a camera, so that's not a problem anymore guys.
But as for matching the toe flip, now that's a problem.
sskatess 04-05-2008, 02:01 PM it's really not a hard trick, just watch aronls trick tip and apply it to nollie
put your front foot (just toes) heelside of the bolts then drag down and in a semi circle first towards you then toward the middle of the deck, and jump.
Derrick14 04-05-2008, 02:34 PM ..shut up sskatess, i hate you for setting that! :p
Shorty's_Kid 04-05-2008, 05:44 PM it's really not a hard trickEven I went outside and tried it, and I couldn't even get close to starting to get the flip.
I don't like a single thing about the trick, the way the foot position is, the way it looks, really anything about it. So I'm not even going to try it again.
22's! Son 04-05-2008, 09:25 PM I think I found a camera, so that's not a problem anymore guys.
But as for matching the toe flip, now that's a problem.
did you have a backup camera or something?

Yes,yes they are:)

Shorty's_Kid 04-05-2008, 10:31 PM 540 shuvit is 3rd round and later, when anything goes.
did you have a backup camera or something?
I'll use my sisters digital camera for the time being.
kk360 04-06-2008, 09:20 AM Gnar please make your set doable:)
^ I have 3 possible sets.
They are the both pretty much the same trick, but in different stances.
And I would just set it reg. But, with all these tech tricks getting me letters, I don't know if I should change it up a bit.
J-Ros 04-06-2008, 10:52 AM I got one again ^^ It's uploading to my computer now.. it should be up in like 5 hours :)
sskatess 04-06-2008, 01:07 PM does anyone else think 4 days for matching and setting is a bit too long, perhaps 3 would be better?
Derrick14 04-06-2008, 01:14 PM yes, i agree
J-Ros 04-06-2008, 01:54 PM does anyone else think 4 days for matching and setting is a bit too long, perhaps 3 would be better?
I think you shouldn't change rules in the middle of the game. Why would 3 days be better?
sskatess 04-06-2008, 01:57 PM because it's going slooooow.
we did it for the first bgos.
J-Ros 04-06-2008, 02:17 PM because it's going slooooow.
we did it for the first bgos.
That is better because the weather and ankles aren't always with you.. however, that is just my opinion.. i think Shorty's_kid should decide if the matching time is changed this game.
22's! Son 04-06-2008, 02:24 PM does anyone else think 4 days for matching and setting is a bit too long, perhaps 3 would be better?
YES I AGREE! by the time we get out of the first round, one month will already go by........ i think gnar should just put his set up today and we should match it by tuesday or wednesday, everyone besides J-ros and arejay has decided not to match the nollie toe flip so lets get this going
J-Ros 04-06-2008, 02:30 PM Everyone besides J-ros and arejay has decided not to match the nollie toe flip so lets get this going
That means the re-match i just uploaded still counts if aproved by Shorty's_kid?
22's! Son 04-06-2008, 02:35 PM yeah i think he will count it, id count it, but thats up to him
but i guess if he doesnt count it you have another day to match, but if he does i say GNAR should upload his set
J-Ros 04-06-2008, 02:39 PM Sounds reasonable to me :)
With GNAR's trick also the matching time gets reduced to 3 days?
22's! Son 04-06-2008, 02:50 PM we'll see what shorty's has to say about all of this
arejayismyname 04-06-2008, 04:05 PM i like the idea of having 3 days to match.
its easier
You guys say 3 days matching is good now, but wait until the later rounds, you will want the 4 back.
So just calm down.
There's no need for a lesser matching time.
Shorty's_Kid 04-06-2008, 05:05 PM As an experienced NGOS'er, trust me, in a little bit, you'll be glad you have 4 days. I guarantee there will be some tricks you've never even thought about trying in here.
How about this, I'll lower the setting time to 2 days. Most of you probably have your tricks planned out anyway. Does that work?
And sorry J-ros, you didn't roll away. It looked like you were starting to roll, but then your toe touched which probably stopped you, but your too far away for me to be able to tell. If your already rolling, I don't mind if you tic-tac to keep speed. (But to clarify, you can't stop, THEN tic tac.)
I'm gonna end the matching time for this trick now, because nobody else is going to match it. I was basically just waiting for J to put his re-match up.
So I can get my set up today if I wanted?
