i think your next trick video should be "the haircut"

sssssssick

Damn John, that was sick. Slaybo, that was also very fucking sick!

nice that was fucking powered. Saw this slaybo vid before, glad you reposted it. Trying to learn this trick and watching 20ish of them helps me see what I'm doing wrong. Not sure if this is right but, looks like once you are about to complete the first backroll you are pulling in your feet a bit to generate the rest of the rotation. I've got backroll's to toeside dialed. Just need the extra 180 (and the balls to commit to it).

Let me know if you have any pointers? I'm guessing its just like every other trick I've learned and you just have to put in a few days worth of crashes before you can figure it out in your head.

Haha, yup pretty much is like every other trick. Tips: Pop an aggressive backroll, rotating almost half way through the bankroll before you pop. Feel the bar touch your back hip. I pull my legs in half way so I can get my hips to the bar. Then look! Turn your head and be aggressive with your hands. You'll get it! I threw about 300 before I got one.

looks like we have a MOBE OFF!

Thanks for the inspiration dudes! Tryin to get back to my mobes after an eight year break from my switch mobe and a four year pause from the regular one. Crashin hurts more when older though. Gonna try to get back here with an entry into the mobe-off.

haha peps I second that, getting old sucks, no longer made of rubber it seems.

I haven't tried a switch mobe but, almost feel like it would be easier since I've been doing backroll's to toe side a lot longer than I've been doing them on my forehand.

That and a 313 are on my list of tricks to learn before winter. Just need my new boots to come in!
