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?

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.

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

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

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.

Whenever my brother backflipped (to fakie (on quarters)) on his inlines he would drag his hands. Pissed me right off

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