"First of all you're going to have to clear your mind of any thoughts of what's cool, what tricks cool or not, because we all know at the end of the day, nothing is cool." Wise words from the rat man himself
Rattray!!!! My brother from another mother. I bought probably the only pair of 'es Ecosse in Australia, not only because they have my name on the tongue... But you made them John. Thanks for being my inspiration over these passed 10 years. R.I.P 'eS.
awesome tricks john am gonna learn it i just love this kind of tricks ....bonelessis,cavemans ,ice plant,staple gun, can opener ..cool man keep run old school tricks dude
I know this trick a little different,, saw it in an old school video. You do a fakie tailstal, then your front foot move like in this clip to the tail and from that you jump into a drop in... any ideas what this name could be? I love that one it looks kind of special and old school too.... but riverdance will be my next one with hand on the hips!
I originally did this during a tail stall while holding the nose and then jumping off of the tail back into the transition when rooling back down the quarter pipe or whatever side of the miniramp that I would be skating on and then later started doing the same basic thing as like shown here on the nose but would whip out of it with a revert out of the nose stall at the end.
Weird I was told this trick was called a Scare Crow, and I was also taught that you do a fakie nose stall jump your dominate foot to the tail then jump back into the transition instead of switch drop in. Anyone else learn it this way or is it just me? I have never met anyone else that learned it as "Scare Crow" except for everyone in my small hometown of Flagstaff, AZ.
"When talking about The Riverdance and thinking about the Riverdance, it's really important... to remember that... it's kinda dumb. It's a dumb trick." XD
Rattray has always brought out consistently good shit. If those shoes are indeed Gravis I'm hoping he muscles his way into Alien Workshop. His most recent shadows video reminds me of a short clip of the Cinematographers project in Alien Workshops's section, where It's a shot of a playground with a skater's shadow elongated to be big headed ala the archetypal Exterteresstial being... Anyway, John's awesomeness aside. Gonna go heed his words and riverdance.... Safety dance; to be invented soon.
I can do this move fakie, but you skip the first step, just as you jump switch your foot furthest away from the coping to the coping before you stall. its kinda scary hahah
