Can you still land a kick flip?

Sick and well made. Technical and smooth. Thanks @Solowolf.

Been skating off and on since I was around 12/13(20 years now) rode every chance I could, over the years Iā€™ve had a few spans of not riding but even in say last like 6 years everytime I fall out my daughters seem to take up interest and then Iā€™m back to riding again. Have had a makeshift park literally across the backstreet from us and this past summer/fall actually had the haggard mini ramp torn down and a local guy actually put in a couple legit cement ledges/boxes and a couple rails. I know what Iā€™ll be doing when snows clear. Also collect boards and use longboard to cruise to store, work etc. My kickflips were always hit or miss but my heels were usually spot on.

My no kick flipping Lakais. I have a symmetrical Ishod Wair board I havenā€™t had time to set up for months. Tom K motivated me!

For every one run that turned out well there are probably a couple who didnā€™t. Maybe 1 or 2 that never got to post their video.

Everyone thought Luan was going to win, but Cody had the most amazing run of tricks without missing that was just unbeatable. The double flips, switch double, that weird varial pressure flip and the most beautiful nollie tre Iā€™ve ever seen. If you donā€™t love Cody after this, you might not like skateboard tricks at all!

Haha you and I both. Tried enough tines where I should have been able to do it let alone land one! Hahah could get up on a box to do some grinds and could ollie over stuff but that was about my limit.

Lol, CCS,we would all pick out our next deck. Then snap it a week later. Then be back skating a blankā€¦ lol. Snowboarding was my true love! We would skip school and shred all day! Screw school, I got other shit Iā€™d rather do, like jump off chairlifts and pack bongs with snow behind the lodge.

When the kids are that good you have to change the rules! Skate should be trick for trick, we need to utilize finger flips and the old school tricks that make the young cats scratch their heads and take a letter!

Lol, No kick flips here, but then again my friends and I were bladers! The skateboarders here when I grew up carried their boards more than they rode them. Posers!

Iā€™m not a fan of the mega ramp, but this is near perfect. Drop in straight to quarterpipe and these two ā€œoldā€ guys go OFF!!! I already watched it three times in a row. :skateboard:

Thatā€™s the original Blind board. Almost criedwhen one of my roommates shredded a pool with it around 2004ish. It was almost flawless. It was a present when i was 5 and i didnā€™t start actually skating until junior high. I never really used it and thought it wasnt cool anymore when i did start skating

Thanks man, I saw this 13 year old kid do a tre flip to board slide shove-it out on like a little 6 stair! Wow

Iā€™m a fan of the mega ramp! That thing looks so fun! I donā€™t like the monster quarter pipe! Man seeing guys get laid up on that is painful to watch even! You guys seen where wheels the kid in the wheelchair jumps Dannyā€™s mega ramp and bust his front teeth out then jumps it again! Ridiculous.

Go to a real skate park and kids are not allowed to ride bicycles and scooters a lot of times. Man at the park I went to the bowl was a little boxing ring! Kids are ruthless man!

Anyone seen that Andy Andersonā€™s Powell Perallta vid part that came out recently ā€¦ that youngster has some great style and gives trick credit at the end to all the old skaters he took tricks from.
