    Ok, so it's a crooked grind by bike standards. Lemme explain why there are almost no crooked grinds by skateboard standards on scooters. A nose grind is a front truck grind. A crooked grind is a front truck grind with the back truck hanging away from the ledge/rail. An overcrooked grind...

    back lips

    going slow actually really helps for grinds that involve a lot of balance like lipslides. it helps you get a feel for how to balance it rather than just impacting the obstacle or whatever.

    Grinding.

    Learn feebles and smiths first and then you can pretty much go where ever you want from there. For feebles, lean forward so that your weight isn't on the back, which would cause the deck to be pushed forward more, making you slip out. Also, make sure to steer forward when you do feebles. For...

    Best beginner flat scooter line?

    I personally don't think anyone on a scooter should do tricks in a flat line unless they are combos, as most single tricks (tailwhips, barspins, heelwhips, etc.) are either overdone or are not flashy or "hard" enough to put in a line in a video.

    obama being pro gay

    but it's MY RIGHT to force my beliefs upon others and to discriminate against them!!!!!!!! It's found in a very small percent of all species on Earth so that bit could still be considered a mutation/malfunction. Until there's scientific evidence in regards to what is considered "normal"...

    footplants

    It depends on the trick, sometimes they are cool, other times they are really really lame. You gotta make them look good.

    Bs Boardslides. Ughh

    Keep your weight forward, but only enough so that you can balance and don't just slip out. FS Lipslides would be the next logical trick to learn.

    The Grind Dictionary and Discussion Thread

    Cool, so tell me what they are because this is the first time I've heard of them. All it looks like you do are one footed feebles and an occasional feeble to smith. But like I said, lemme know what grinds are missing so that I can add them because obviously I don't know them all. Then...

    Ground down headset cup

    if it's wobbling then it isn't dialed... as long as it still spins well and you can get it tightened down all the way then it should be fine.

    TSI Threshold Deck

    If the extrusion is done the right way then the deck grinding down won't be a problem. I do smiths on unwaxed curbs to get the curbs smoother and I've never had a problem with the front of my deck grinding down. It only ever grinds down where I do feebles. It's for people who don't like riding...

    Is my dad right?

    Buy leather or suede shoes, they last the longest. I know a lot of people like Nike 6.0s but I know nothing about them. Generally the more you pay though, the higher quality the shoe.

    josh's film photos.

    How is it that I just now found out about this thread?! I would list my favorites but there's too many, so good. Just the fact that a lot of these are life-style-esque photos of pros is enough for me. Mitch Baldry mackin on that chick is hilarious.
