New Tricks/Sad Day About to Come

Posted in New Site Stuff/Updates, Skateboarding on July 8, 2009 by Ty

Okay. I finally learned some new tricks…kinda. I didn’t learn a tre today or 360 shoves, but I did learn some really awesome looking tricks. One is a fakie backside pop shove it frontside body varial (fakie pop shove it sex change) (body varial=sex change and don’t ask me why cuz idk). It is really hard to land but easy to set up once you get good at shove its…and I’m really good at shove its. (I do flatground tricks on my mini pink board now…its light so it helps with 360 stuff.) I also learned a kickflip frontside body varial (kickflip sex change). It is really hard to do. I was practicing frontside 180 kickflips (frontside flips) and hardflips when i accidently set it up. So I just learned that instead. I can’t set up hardflips good and have only landed a frontside flip once. I set up a really good hardflip but didn’t land it):. Well that is all for now. Beach tomorrow!!!

The sad day thing in the title is about my CSS. It will run out. Do you guys think I should renew it? Idk. I don’t wanna dish out the cash…but I might. Not for a while though. SO BYE BYE FOR CSS FOR NOW!!!

Skated Today

Posted in Skateboarding on July 1, 2009 by Ty

For those of you who are claiming that I skate everyday, I do not. Most days (in summer). So I went out skating. I was gonna meet one of my best friends. We hang a lot and he skates so I was gonna meet him at a spot we go to. It’s this ledge. It’s about a foot and a half inches high, so it’s pretty easy for me to ollie…so I often trick off it. I wasn’t trying too hard cuz I didn’t have anything to drink. And I tire easy haha. Well, on my way I saw this kid I hate. He followed me and I ran away laughing. I got to the spot and met him. We did some tricks. I fell and my board flew into the street, almost getting run over. It was funny. I continued to skate. I did shoves, FS 180s, ollies, and nose grabs off it. I couldn’t really kickflip today xD. We then went to this place that had an obsticle we could use for a manny pad. If you don’t know what that is, it’s something kinda low and long so you ollie up it and manual off it. This one was like 15-20 feet long and 2 inches high. So I tried ollieing up it, into a manual, and float off without losing the manny. I did like 5 feet of manny and landed. I was happy. If you get bored skating, like me I have some advise.

  • Try tricking off ledges. It feels good when you land it!
  • Try rails. They are tough, but really fun…(my personal favorites…I need a rail.)
  • Try vert skating (ramps). It could be your thing, not tricks.
  • Try hitting stairs. Start with like a 3 or, if you can find it, a 2. I started with a 3.
  • Try hitting different spots. Stay, and then leave to a different one.

So have fun skating!
