New trick process on the #supersausage @skatepark_kraaiennest_diy by @old.dognewtricks

This session was insanely good and I think that this idea of putting my pads on and forcing myself to knee slide one to increase my comfort level to start doing more tricks that are difficult to me and also to be able to help my flexibility because once I get warm and I start skating, then I have the ability to stretch a little bit deeper and finally get my butt to my heels because I I used to be able to do it so that means I can be able to do it. It’s just gonna take some time and one thing I do a lot of is everybody sees is skateboarding so I think this will really really help out and ultimately another piece that it’s not a huge deal, but it’ll also be nice as just the impact you get from running out of stuff. I don’t think that helps and it makes my recovery time longer. Then because of that I started feeling way more comfortable to actually sit inside the ramp on front side and finally feel what it’s like to lock into a front side 50-50 and not run out on the deck or slow myself down and I finally felt it like literally like looking back at the video I can be able to see how much my body is almost in a chair over top of the coping where my hips are inside the ramp like everybody says oh just get inside the ramp and until you really feel it people can tell you time and time again oh just get inside the ramp do this lean up against the wall and put your back against it and that’s how it’s supposed to be but literally how I felt it. Lock in was next level. It just felt so amazing and so sturdy. I’m still fighting a little bit once I get that lock to stay in the ramp and open up my hips, a little bit more to where I wanna go back into the ramp so I don’t have to push off the coping so hard but step-by-step and it’s just gotta keep on growing. by @old.dognewtricks

I have been battling 360 flips for three years with a focus on them, but ultimately it began when I was a teenager wanting to land them and with this, the three different steps that really helped out was hanging my toes off of the back foot and making sure that I pop and get out of the way like getting your feet out of the way and up into the air is probably the biggest thing that helped me and it is all in the back foot as soon as you focus on pushing with the front foot, that’s when it just turns into a burial flip for me or it just isn’t controllable at all so with the front foot to help it get out of the way I usually pull it back a little bit behind the middle of the board, of course works really good, but then getting your balance is super difficult at least for me. And the other thing that really really helps if you can be able to go through this struggle with your crew your community or your tribe do it it just makes it so much better I have to thank @nick.lizard and @danieljoustra so much in this session! And then also @tom.westendorp he gave me the tip to get my feet up and out of the way as high as I possibly can, and I’ve heard it before from other people like @c.a.a.vos and @instaog and realistically more but I actually heard it when Thom said it but thank you everybody who’s helped me through this process and now it’s time to get these consistent and land a couple more @1095_skateboards @djr3 @olddudesskatecrew @yinyang_skateboardcrew by @old.dognewtricks

#session #5 #mission #360flip trying out a little bit of a newer foot position and I thought I had my foot hanging off the front enough but then I watched someone else do it and they had it way more so I did that and had one good one as you can see but at this point in the session, I had already been skating for about an hour and a half, so definitely not the best timing so not gonna make that mistake again, but ultimately wraps and trying to figure things out and I feel like I’m getting closer. by @old.dognewtricks
