Jef Hartsel Slappy Trick Tip 

This is rad, even if it was recorded with a Lego phone. Respect

Maaaan I just started skating again at 46 and I have the most killer slappy curb across the street at a church. It has no grass on the other side so you can board slide it to, its painted red and so long also the parking lot banks up to it .....I gotta get my legs back but once I do I'm getting on that thing man...probably with pads first LOL its been 20 years 😂

for frontside: approaching the curb at an angle, at the very last second as the nose of your board is about to go over the curb you want to lean slightly toward the heelside of your trucks allowing your toeside front-wheel to make contact (no lifting) with the side of the curb so that it goes up over the edge and then once you feel that front truck catch onto the edge you want that back truck to follow and SLAP, then grind and roll off! and then for approaching backside slappy: you want to lean toeside of your trucks last second so that the heelside front-wheel makes contact with the curb first (the wheel basically rides up that's how your truck gets onto the grind.) also it's a bit easier to learn with bigger wheels because the more surface of the wheel you got to roll up the side of the curb the better.

Go watch him in Rubbish Heap if you haven't.

Hawaii style 🏄‍♂️🤙🏻

Jeff your OG legend . Have a old pic Flower street Santa Ana . blasting frontside air lip .

Best instruction of a slappy ive ever heard; in person or video!

First frontside slappy in 2 years today…. Felt soooooo good.

Are you the Jeff hartsel who skated for Alva back in the day ?

This helps a ton. I just haven't been able to get them, and I feel like I can now.

This is the best slappy instructional ever. Legend.

Is he wearing the Gravis Dylan's????

Hell yeah OG man much respect 🤙🏽 big ups from frisco

Step one get ace trucks , step two loosen them bad boys up

Yes ! Love it . Jeff's slappy back tail in this was rad . Pure style.

“The slappy happens, just just need to be ready when it does.” I love this quote, and it accurate for most tricks.

That tailslide at the end was killer

I used to love slappys , I woukd say slappy is the front truck not the rear

HR/ Bad Brains...whuuuuuut?!!! Respect!👊🏽

Its tricky coz the older we get we cant help overthinking all the physics. All you need to know is what he says @4:20 in the video...

So fun
