[OtakuBerserker]

youre awfully obbsessed for the fact youve been skating for 3 months. ive been skating for about 5 months now. im not sure what my best trick is cuz im not very good. i can do those verial kickflip things preety well tho

[ChaosP86]

fakie bigspins,nollie 180 ollies, frontside disasters on mini's. anti-casper's
those are prolly my best single tricks
i can do this link too-->
a primo-to-primoflip-into-casper-casperflip out

[vash_stampede]

i can to the fakie big spins to, but my best trick was definately my primo to 360 flip out, i love trying to imitate Rodney Mullen, hes awsome. But my best street move is a 180 indy off my x-factor ramp. this is kinda off topic but is about sk8ing so..... I ollied a 5 stair at my school and i was wondering what everyone heres most stair completeion was

[KrAzyLiLAzNGr1]

I skated a couple of times and i extrememly suxors. - -" I can't even do a ollie T__T.

[Lunatic High]

last time i tried skating, it wasted 3 of my heart containers. i never tried it again, maybe i'll try again after i steal 8000 rupees.

[Bishounen Lover]

Best trick: Kickflip.
Almost broke my ass trying to do it.
This is of course coming from a person whose only been on a skateboard about 12 times.
Hey, I can actually stay on the damned thing and not kill myself. And I can actually manuver (sp?) on it as well.

Literally fell on my ass trying to do an ollie. My cousin was watching and laughed a crapload. So I told him to try it and he ended up falling on his ass as well. It was pretty funny.

[BlackdevilStar]

mr darkphire skates ! very nice =))...ive been skating for about 7 years now so its been a lot of skating for me...i really dont know what my best rick cuz i have so many... id say my best flat ground trick is either between a switc hardflip or switch double heelfip.....uhh star wise the most ive done is 10. and id say the best trick off stars was probably kickfliping this one 10...knolling this oversized 5...or ollieing over five stair rail and 360 fliping an oversized 4.....hmm handrails ive only ollied boardslid and noseslid...and kickflip boardslid... i have tons tons more tricks but i dont want t make this post to long...SKATEBOARDING IS NOT A CRIME

[Hopeless]

hmmm probably a switch nollie heelflip, im not that good, i ollied a 5 stair at the elementary school... thats the longest stair completion i did

[ChaosP86]

youre wrong because theres no such thing as a switch nollie. think about it. if your riding switch(assuming your regular)then your right foot would be on the nose going "fowards" but youd actually be riding backwards just facing your body foward. so itd actually be a fakie heelflip. its all in just which way your body is turned, but theres no such thing as switch nollie

[TheNewMadPad]

ur lucky lunatichigh, it wasted all of mine. =(

[PoisonRiceBall]

Dude, if you must know I love doing japan air, kickflips,and 180%. Killer awesome!!!!!!!!!:music:

That guy is a liar. Japan Air?!?! Hell no. My best trick is a 360 flip. Rodney Mullen is the best streetskater. You all have heard of him. You should go to www.albinoblacksheep.com and search "skateboard video". It's an awesome video of him doing crazy stuff.

P.S. I know a lot of people who got really good in 3 months.

[TurtleFarm]

[anarchistbabie]

[Dart082]

-_- if u believed that u are sad.

my best trick i ever landed was a 360 flip. totally by luck

best trick i can do issssssss.......um.......lets see...idk i pop shove it 5 sets so i guess that.

[Skater#182]

Rodney isn't who I consider the best street skater, but he is the best freestyler.

My best trick: 360 off stuff, fakie varial flip, kickflip crooked.

I play guitar, and I skate which takes alot of time on each other, so I gotta balance it alot.

[jenniferv13]

My X was teaching me to do trick but he left me!!!! so i never got to learnd

[BlackdevilStar]

over by the mall in escondid there was this sick ss 10 stair there... it was pretty big.. i tried to do a back 1 off it then we got kicked before i could kickie it.. oh well ollie is good enough

[Dart082]

[Follow_The_Lies]

Yeah, I'm REALLY lame, sometimes I do stuff and I don't even know what I just did. But the funnest thing I ever did was go down a construction dirt hill and I got all the way to the bottom then I hit a rock and flew like 10 feet! It was SO fun.

[BlackdevilStar]

ahahahahah ive had those times before...

[StrapnYoungLad]

dark slide yeah I suck thanks to not having a skateboard for about 3 months my element broke in half doing a 50/50.

[scubasteve911]

i've only bin skatin 4 about 4 months now soo my best trick would probly hav 2 be varial kik into casper casper flip out.

[scubasteve911]

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!

[Sswiss]

i took a break from skating about 4 or 5 months ago, so i think ive been skating 8 months total and my best trick was backside flip and the most i did was 4 stair

[ryanson209]

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!
don't know what that meant


I don't skate, but I watch my friends skate on their Element boards, my favorite brand. The tricks they land are simple kickflips, heelflips, and grinds, but I think one of them landed a 360 down a few steps.

[Rinoa_Heartilly]

For me the next best thing to riding a skateboard was doing an ollie. Or busting a grind [I should say TRYING to bust]. For like, two seconds. Trying a pop shovit was tough! I stunk haha. That was back when I was 14 or 15 yrs. old too. Yeeaars ago. Honestly, I never really tried to improve. But I liked it anyway. I still like it even now, but I have no more skateboarding links [I used to use my brother's and my cousin's, sometimes a friend's]. >_<

[Marth278]

frontside 180 kickflip

[Eldricht]

Finger flip off a 10 stair.

I know, nothing that technical like most of you. But then again, I wasn't the greatest at it.

the crazy mother ****er tries any street trick 3 times and hits the trick atleast once. definintly/better go pro.

Hahahah, going pro because someone can do an "overrated" dark slide, and an impossible. which doesn't live up to his name.

Both tricks are actuall incredibly easy. I don't see why people think darkslides are such an outlandish hard trick. Darkslides are easier then kickflips. Matter a fact, I can switch darkslide...
and Impossibles are just like pressure flips so if you can do those then you can impossible, same concept basically.

Practice Practice Practice.

Besides I hate tony hawk Pro.It gives posers a way to talk skate. Yes I said posers.

i wasn't talking about those tricks making him go pro...i was talking about how if he attempts a move 3 times, he lands it atleast once. and the moves that he tries 3 times aren't like kickflipping 6 stairs either. :rolleyes:

[BlackdevilStar]

[Marth278]

[BlackdevilStar]

In your post above you mentioned something about kickflipping a 6 stair. I don't get what it was suppsoed to mean.

:blush: h i mean that the **** he tries "3 times" is harder than kickflipping 6 stairs. 10 months skating...damn.

[BlackdevilStar]

I sakte Goofy and push Mongo by the way.

[NightNinja666]

probably a kick-flip..my best combo is a manual to ollie then land nosemanual and powerslide stop

[Marth278]

I sakte Goofy and push Mongo by the way.

u ever try to learn to not push mongo? cause if u learn to push the regular way, you'll set up for tricks like stairs easier.

[BlackdevilStar]

Actually when setting up for stairs,mongo can be much easier skating, sort of depends on stairs I guess, but it can be easier. I used to skate mongo for a good 8 years, until last year I had started skating regular. I Skate both ways know. It's quite helpful.

[PalaceBurner]

I skate goofy and push regular usually, but I push mongo when I'm pushing switch. Pushing mongo is a pain in the ass when I'm skating regular. And it looks funny...

[Marth278]

also, for street skating when u push mongo, and u hit a crack, the front of ur board goes up and you have to go get your board. when pushing regularly, your board will just lose speed cause you can strongly push it over the large crack.

and for stairs, if your setting up for an ollie, you just set your front foot where it should be, and then twist your front foot when you get on and BAM your in your ollie position. for mongo, unless you know how to get your front foot on pin point AND fast, its harder. :cheers:

[BlackdevilStar]

Actually when skating street you have more control after hitting cracks mongo. if you're regualr/goofy, you have a better chance of falling because the back of your board will go up, or front, causing your front foot to **** up..So mongo, you have control, plus you may even go faster. Since I can skate both ways, it doesnt matter.

Since I can skate both ways, it doesnt matter.

well when you push regularly and not mongo, people usually put their foot in the middle when pushing for 2 reasons. 1 is that when they turn their foot they are in their ollie position which makes it faster than mongo to get into the position. and 2 is that you put your foot in the middle, so you have equal pressure and contorl of the front and back, where in mongo you only have the back controlled/pressured.

and by the way i pushed mongo for the first 6 months of my skating, and when i learned to push regularly, it was much faster, more control, and easier for fast tricks. much noticeable in the speed though.
