Is this cheating?

[Dustin Nooner]

When skaters do a gap and then put their hands down after they land cause if they didnt theyd eat shit? I think its mad cheating and sloppy aaaaaas. your thoughts?

 

[markmacwan]

It's sloppy for sure but I think its not cheating because it's just a way to keep the trick, I mean if they had enough balls to do a gap that's so hard you gotta put your hands down for it then that's good enough.

 

[Isaac Coy]

Well if they would wipeout if they didnt, i think it's cheating. its just like putting your foot down when u go to 360 somthin

 

[DavidCronin]

its not cheating, we call it "picking up change", if you see it in a vid its prob becuase they couldnt do it better but its not cheating

 

[Michael Rankin]

I don't really think it's cheating. Now when they are using their entire hands to keep themselves from tipping over and making it really obvious, then yeah it's cheating.

 

[DavidCronin]

it really depends on how they do it, like if its a quick hand touch or like they touch and revert around

 

[parrish]

no its not, its the same as toe or tail drag, and yes i do skateboard

You act like we were going to ask you that.

 

[Dustin Nooner]

hahaha yea im talking full hand to kep from tipping. its gay haha i mean if its such a big gap that they only do it once and that happened its whatever but i see people do it all the time i cant stand it haha.

FUCK NO IT'S CHEATING.
Whenever my brother backflipped (to fakie (on quarters)) on his inlines he would drag his hands. Pissed me right off

 

[kingtrixx]

some people's steez are different

 

[DavidCronin]

people only do it to regain balance for like 2 seconds and they dont do it on purpose. its something that automatically happens

 

[Dustin Nooner]

still it can be avoided haha

 

[Zaηe]

It's sloppy, but i wouldnt ezactly call it cheating.

 

[ashz893scootys]

its excacly the same as putting ur heel down while doing a feeble or something

 

[Hogan]

its kind of cheating but it matters like this skater i know tray fliped this huge 15 set and draged his hand when he landed i but it didnt really mater i thought cause it was so huge so ya depends on the trick i think

You act like we were going to ask you that.
