Skated for 23 years, stopped for 3 after my daughter was born and watching your vids played a big part in me buying a new board and rolling again. Cheers 🍻
Half cab crook pop out, back nosegrind pop out both dope, all that stuff looks fun. Also every vid you've got a zillion zingers, keep keepin the vibes on point my dude haha
Yo thank you, Ben! Just watched your new video the other day too! You destroyed that crusty ledge my dude. True east coast G shit. You’d have a field day on this thing.
Thank you, dude! Was actually having more trouble than I showed on video with regular bs crook, it kept sticking on me and going into noseslide, but half cab crooks was grinding every time. Skateboarding is weird 😂
@@dadboard I know what you mean, I’ve been having so much trouble with regular nose slides but I can kinda tap em if I half cab into it. Sometimes fakie just works. Stoked to see more of your vids and inspired to try to make some of my own vids
I like to do the old guy new trick videos because I can kinda explain what I’m doing as I’m learning it, but it’s difficult to breakdown tricks I’ve been doing for so long because I’ve forgotten the nuances and stuff
@@dadboard that's totally understandable. i also find it hard to explain tricks, most of the time i explain to kids "you just gotta do it to get the feel for it" lol
Dont worry man. We've all done switch heel flops too. Right before you did halfcab crook i was like "i hope he tries to halfcab crook, that ledge is begging for one." Thanks my dude!
I learned sw heels a while back on one of my first videos on the channel but I haven’t been putting in enough work consistently to get them _good_ I’m making them a priority this year for sure
“Carthritis”; brilliant! I’m dealing with too much workthritis and lifethritis nowadays, but still managed to get out for a scooter session and a skateboard session. Thanks as always for making us want to skate more!
im so stoked right now cause i was just trying a double kickflip down a curb and kickflip front 50. holy shit i actually feel like i could land them. finally a bit of progression lol.
@@dadboard ay cheers! im trying it at about 1mph but its a start. frontside flips aren't at all easy. maybe i'll record something and upload it one day.
@@dadboard My boy Rob came up with that when we started skating again in our LATE 30's. I about died laughing when he said it. It's dead on though. Get warmed up, drive 2 blocks to the next spot and the old man legs are shot. Haha. Glad to pass it along to the west coast!
Yeah I have weird light sensitivity too so going from dark to light really fucks my vision up. I can’t even read white text on a dark background without it being burned into my eyes.
dude I have the same problem reading white text on dark background (especially on a phone) kills my eye too anyway much respect as always. take time ti appreciate the bag of tricks you have and worked hard to get and maintain- you do things every video that I aspire to learn and be half as good at keep shredding dude love your content 🔥🤙🏼🛹
rad sh!t dude. you’ve got a solid bag of tricks and always make it look so fun inspires me to continue to learn and progress with the few tricks I have so far 🔥 🤙🏼🛹
