[Antonator]

i've skate for 3 years now and i'm 13 years. i can do pretty many tricks, most flips etc.
then i go snowboard :D

[Thrasher]

And we got another skater here on the forum :D cool!!! welcome here ;) if you got some vid's or pictures you should post those here :D

[hellraid]

what flips are you able to nail?

[Joker]

I started when I was 9, stopepd when I was 14 because I had back surgery and gained close to 150 pounds in one year.

[Antonator]

what flips are you able to nail?[/b]

best atm is double kickflip to manual ..
imo that's a pretty cool trick :P

[Thrasher]

I can't do double flips anymore :S i tried it a few days ago when we dit a game of skate but i simply can't nail them anymore :(

[Antonator]

oww i hate when I usually could do a trick and can't do it after a while..
also the double flip is up to a 'bank' in knee high, or what to say. <-- that's the hard with the tricks.

[Thrasher]

yeah the double flip takes quite a while before it flipped the whole trick :) i used to have that problem with 360 flips but now a days i just flip it higher :) it also teaches you to catch it higher when doing it on flat :D

[Flow]

i have never done a double flip :(
hopefully i will soon
i can only do a couple tricks...just started sk8ing

[Lord10]

my neighbor manipulated me into trying it for a week back in march <_<

it was boring and i probably wouldn't even have the balls to continue anyway. i only learned about 3 stuff <_< ollie, shove it, 360 shove it.

btw have any of you seen scarred?

[Hootnnuts]

i skate some times. im not too good but i can do it. still workin on that kick flip ;)

[Cranos]

I did it a few years ago, but I don't anymore. Different friends & hobbies.
