    Be comfortable nose-manualing whatever ledge you learn them on, have smiths super dialed (helps with accuracy when hopping into the overcrook), and be ready to fall forward. Learn them on a ledge with wide angle iron or one that slides well so that you have more room for error. I'll refer you...

    Well since you're grinding with your toes facing the ledge and doing a boardslide then it would be a frontside boardslide.

    Ok, the original post reached the maximum amount of characters. I wanted to be descriptive but I'm going to have to cut down from some of the descriptions so more grinds can be added.

    hardspins out. Fixed the crooked grind bit but I'm not sure if I want to cover tricks out in this thread but if a few other people want to see some terms specific to tricks out then post about it and I'll make it happen.

    Alright, fair enough, I'll add it haha. I edited the feeble, smith, and hurricane bits, and added a note about the hot garbage grind and added a section for willy grinds. Anybody have ideas about how to name/describe FSF and SF grinds? Because I know people do them but I've never really heard...

    The precedent for street was set by skaters and other sports a long time ago and that precedent is no helmets. That's why wearing a helmet in street looks goofy. All I'm gonna say.

    If you're just using wax then go ahead and try to grind it and that'll help the wax get in there. And just wax it over and over while seshing it!

    I know some of the frenchies call them hurricanes (I'm actually positive that JD calls them that) but I think it's better to just call them fakie BS feebles since hurricanes in the boardslide sense are completely different and more commonly called hurricanes. Thank you very much too, I'm...

    Pros have huge tricks, insane combos, and great speed and style, all with godly consistency. I would say that consistency and style are probably the two main factors that increase my respect for anyone as a rider. Speed next, then combos, then big tricks.

    Addict Ballest?

    git the drill out haha. This is just another option people can choose to make their rides more comfortable for their styles, I don't see why it's a dumb idea. I think it's great.
