Actually was pretty good, nollie 3 was sweet along with a few other things. You just look a little awkward riding a scooter, maybe its your bars being a little high or something.

I agree with Kenny, you look awkward on a scooter. It might just be that you are a giant and your on an old A, which is shorter than a Pro I think. I would get a custom deck, you looked like you were being pushed backwards from the bar angle.

thanks to everyone for your honesty. I'm having trouble seeing the "awkwardness" you're talking about, maybe it is because I am 6'2.5, but I don't think lowering the bars would help, if anything it would look more awkward because I'd be all hunched over. but yeah, I think wider bars might help, I need to order some. haha and oh well, I guess some people can't appreciate french hip hop haha. thanks again everyone

siiick dude, you seriously improve so much with every new vid you release, which is quite good. I was thinking that it would be sick to gap from the 2 stair into that qp, and then you did it hah. the rail stall to double was sick, and the full cab off that little drop was pretty smooth. hmm about what everyone is saying about looking awkward and all that, ummm just go at your own pace and if it feels right for you then I couldn't care less, but I guess my two cents is that I've noticed from experience that in almost all extreme sports (bmx, skateboarding, frootbooting, and scootering, etc.) shorts completely kill your style, and I guess if you want you can lower your bars to like 23's or 24's because I'm around the same height as you and that's about what I run, and also wider bars also feel pretty sick to ride with once you get used to them n stuff. sooo... keep it up mang.

this is exactly the type of comment I am looking for. thank you. quick question though: when you measure the height of your bars, where do you measure from? because I measured from underneath the cross bar, down to the end of the steer tube (where the clamp goes on) and it was 20.5 inches. soooo considering my height, that's pretty low

hmmm, I don't know, unless you lowered ur bars or something recently, but I believe most people measure from the top of the headset (so at the bottom of the clamp) all the way to the exact center of the crossbar. I don't really know though, because my bars are like halfway between my knees and hips.

that video was pretty good. i didnt like the music though, not the style it is just i hate listening to something that i cant understand. that park looks like it had some flow and i am glad that you took advantage of it. the 360 over the spine was landed nice and high up, just work on style more or learn style tricks like turndowns, inverts, tables, lookbacks ect...

haha that really is so funny because all I've been saying lately is "wow I want to learn to flow parks better and shred tranny" and I have been working on turndowns like a mad man. I don't even know where to start with inverts and tables haha

Great riding i loved it. But the shorts? They gotta go. I'm a believer in jeans=style haha. For example, your all mentioning awkwardness but i didn't see any when you were wearing jeans. Anyway don't listen to me haha. 3 spine was bitching. Also some manuals and ledge grinding would be good to see.
