can't you do an ollie to kick flip? :p

yes ^^ there is actually one in there if you look closely. A kickflip can't be done without an ollie. Ollie form the basis for most streettricks today. if i had to kickflip without ollieing i would have to do an oldschool kickflip where the feet are actually on the side of the board. I think you might have missed it due to the fact that unless i need clear an object eg. a bench or a curb or i'm doing pop shove-it's i like my tricks low :)

more intense physical pain than mental scaring :p. If i'm too afraid that i'll do it again.. i might aswell stop skating. I would bail a lot of tricks due to fear of getting hurt.
It's really really not an experience i would like to have again though :p i did it outside a computer cafe where i knew the employees pretty well. the first seconds after it happened i was like holy shit this is some sick pain *awwwwwwwwwwwwww* i fought my way inside the cafe and just kinda lay there on their welcome mat for 10 minutes. They asked what happened but the explanation was more like; AU, skateboard, ass, pain.. lots of pain ^^ then i walked home (very slowly) and took a trip to the hospital :p

skateboarding... oh boy, last time i did it, i was going down a hill, and some tiny fragments of stones were on the way, as i was passing on top of them i needed to stear, tho they disabled my stearing so i had to make a choice, continue going and than end on some bushes with lots of horns, or jump of my skate and have a tiny chance of not get hurt. Ofc i chose the second option, which ended on me slipping and going like 3 meters with my knee and hands sliding on a the road full of rock fragments. Had to be like 4 weeks resting with me leg straight, due to such lack of skin :\ Never picked up my skate again.

all looks pretty cool, if i was to point out one thing i wreckon you should improve, it generally looks a bit jerky, big pauses before you flip the board or whatever. ofc this could be what your going for dunno, skateboarding flatland is alot diff to bmx and i dont really like woodpushers >: ( (joke chill).

definatly some cool stuff tho. how has your bent tailbone affected you by the way?

yeah my style need improving. But i only started doing flatland/freestyle about 2 days before i shot the first flip. Always just been doing street :p still needs some polishing.


Hmm the only way my tailbone has effected me is that is doesn't take as much to hurt it again as it did before. I often wonder if the doc knew what he was doing :p as far as i know, you can bruise or break tailbones. He said bent. Might just have been to tell me that i didn't break it but came very very close and that i should keep it out of harms way for a while :p i dunno <shrug>

Ohh, brings back the memories from the days where I was skating :)
I could do the most amazing tricks. Shinbone to the curb, Kick flip to the vertical board between legs (BIGTIME ouch).
Once on my old school we made a BIG U ramp and right after it was [done] it rained. After dark I decided to try it out, even though there wasn’t any light up yet. On my third run I got airborne, but I kind of fell backwards and fell 3m down, back first with my fist behind my back. I landed on my fist and broke my arm a few places.
Lots of fun and lots of pain, but it was worth it ;)
