I GOT BEBOPS!!!!!!!!!!
This took me a month or more. I’m so happy I got them.
This took me a month or more. I’m so happy I got them.
I’ve been trying my hardest to land a bebop on concrete and it has been going decently well. I’ve been getting one foot on but I’ve sacked so many times that I can’t fully commit, it might just be my mind or it might just be board comfortability and skill that might be the issue. Does any know any tricks that could help learning and committing to fakie bebop’s? I really wanna land the trick but I also want to do it right because I feel like I’ve hit a road block to learning it.
I saw Rodney do a variation on this where he landed to tail, I can’t land to tail so I went with trying back to deck. It took a week because it was new feeling for me when getting into it so it took awhile but I’m glad I got it today, also bebop’s on concrete are getting there, I can raise both feet after popping I just gotta commit now. I love skating man, it’s so fulfilling and fun. Idk what the trick name is though, I’ve been calling it truck stand varial finger flip out but idk if it’s right.
Just rail flip clip on new deck and trucks. I also broke my trucks. They both feel great so far.
Lost my enjoi deck today. It’s pretty sad and I’m pretty bummed out because I wanted to try and land bebop’s and a few other Casper variations today. But during my warm up I just broke my deck doing an Ollie mute grab, similar to how Rodney would do his during his contest runs but I did mine moving. It’s pretty sad and I don’t even know how I broke it. I can only guess my landing had to do with it but I’m still stumped on how I could break a deck not even a month old. Oh well, just wanted to share because I’m pretty sad about it.
Bebops are the current trick I’m working on. Can’t really translate them well to concrete just yet. But it was the same with kick flips until I learned how to get over that mental barrier. So right now I’m just trusting the process. On concrete I can get one foot on. It’s just really all about keeping my knees bent up and catching. Hopefully when I post again I will have made the full bebop on solid ground. Any tips at all would be nice.
Just wanted to share. I’m very happy about it.
In my skating I feel like I’m leaning towards freestyle more because even though it’s difficult I always loved how smooth and fulfilling it felt when pulling off a line. The current board I’m using is a normal popsicle deck but I have seen the two following boards the last time I was at my local shop, I doubt they are still there but that got me to wonder how the following decks above feel like compared to a normal street deck. If you have skated these before please tell me how it felt, how good it was to skate, both freestyle and maybe street (Ollie up a curb) and if you’d recommend them. Thanks in advance.
Wasn’t as high as I would have liked but landed this one after a minor injury doing the same trick. I’m just glad that I was able to land it at all. I’m sure I’ll get them clean and high once I practice them more. Maybe on smaller banks first.
Worked on my nose hook impossibles today, I think I found the technique to do a much more better wrap, or atleast get my back foot under the board more consistently. I just wanna know peoples opinion and possible tips I could apply to get a better wrap. The clip above was one of my best attempts that I landed, even if sketchy.
Dropped my switch accidentally when packing it for a trip, was on the edge of a table and I wished I was more careful. I was able to fix it to a degree now only working via Bluetooth connection and does not work or seemingly does not recognize its attached to a switch whenever I attach it so I can’t use it in handheld mode. Does anybody know how a joy con works so I possibly know where to look in order to possibly fix my joy con fully? It would be nice to know where I messed up so I can fix it instead of just buying another one. That’s back up plan if I can’t fix it entirely. But I would like to know if there’s a chance so I don’t have to spend money I don’t need too.
Working on a new stop motion film. Picking up from where last left off since I started this film two years ago. Finished a teaser and realized how choppy the animation quality is compared to old footage and new footage (new footage used in now finished teaser) I’m not sure if I should still use the old footage or restart from scrap. What do you think? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance
