60/40 grind...like a double peg, but on a rail setup where there is a rail on top of another, so one peg is on the top rail, and the other peg on the bottom. chema has a ridiculous one down a rail for armageddon

SPOILER ALERT MUCH?! THANKS FOR GIVING IT AWAY, JERK!!!!!!!

some people's kids....

edit: tyler, disaster slides are when you're doing a front lip on a ledge when the wheel is sliding on top i believe? and salads i used to know but forgot. you should add a bluntslide. it's where you're sliding on the back end of the deck with the wheel touching the vertical part of the ledge. like when you stall on a quarter to do a rock and roll, but you land a little higher out of the ramp and on the back end of your deck with your back wheel touching the coping along with your deck.

hard to explain... but yeah.

Tyler, if you've run out of characters in the first post make another thread and put all the switch/fakie/bs/fs in there.

Well, there was a discussion in the riding pictures thread about crooked grinds vs overcrooks vs bmx peg crooked grinds. So, I came up with something:
Nosegrind: Like a pegless icepick, front of the deck is grinding and the rest of the deck is parallel with respect to the ledge or rail.
Overcrooks: A nosegrind except the deck is not parallel, it is hanging over the ledge, or it is hanging over the opposite side of the rail you are grinding on. So if you are grinding with the left side of your deck on the right side of the rail, the back wheel and deck would probably be hanging over the rail, on the left side.
Crooks: Like a nosegrind, except the deck is hanging away from the ledge or hanging on the same side of the rail that you are grinding.
Crooked (notice: different than a crooks grind) Grinding on a rail or a ledge with one peg on one side of the rail/ledge and the other peg grinding on the other side of the rail/ledge.

If I'm just doing a boardslides, but my wheel is rolling on the lip that's a willy isn't it? I just ask because Parrish thought they are hard but I find them really easy.

I can mention it in the double peg section since it's not a largely done trick and is technically a variation I think.

Nah, salads are not grinds, on a skateboard they're 5-0s that are cocked to the left or right, they aren't possible on scooters.
The bluntslide thing sounds like a lipslide to me. And disaster slides or whatever are lipslides as well.

I added the crook section vs the crooked section. Not sure if the nosegrind section is worth adding since no one does them straight and most people would still just call them an overcrook.

If I'm goofy, and ride up to a rail on my right, and boardslide it, the end of the rail is in front of me and my toes are in front so is that front or back board?

And what about the same scenario but if I went into a lip, front or back lip?

So goofy, riding from the left of the rail or regular from the right of the rail would be back baord, and vice versa. Thanks I get it now :)

So I guess a hepcrook is where you go over a rail and do a fakie overcrook on the other side. Ridiculous.
