    Right when he mentioned leaving out some tricks i immediately thought of noseslide. When I was a kid I never wanted to try those on any type of round rail. When u do a nose slide on a ledge there’s really no balanced involved u just slap it into place & gold all your weight over the foot that’s on the nose. Doing it on a rail seems like it would be a hell of a lot different. On a round rail u have to be balanced the second u get onto it

    Man. When I was a kid I would’ve been amazed by this: one of the best pros in the world teaching you legit, practical tips right on your phone.
    For some reason I never learned feebles growing up, I don’t know why I neglected them. I guess it’s because The Incline Club skatepark (bike oriented) I was always at only had down-rails, I didn’t get many chances to skate flatbars, so I learned most tricks on down-rails. Feebles scared me in that context. Parks back in the early 2000s, in my area, were few and far between and mostly sucked. The parks today are so sick.

    Do you use stretches to warm up before you skate? What's your routine before you step on the board? I'm not much older than you and I have to stretch before I skate, but I do the bare minimum. I want to know your routine if you've got one.

    • @tomasta
      @tomasta  Рік тому +1

      i could do more stretching for sure..maybe ill put a vid out about that as well..but i take about 5-10 mins to stretch and loosen up before i actually step on the board. id have to make a vid cause i dont really know the names of stretches im doing lol THANKS for watching !

    I needed this so bad. 38 abandoned impact for the most part and grew up with small town parks and the the big square rails. But they just built a new park with only round and I know in heart I could do feebs and smiths and 50 variations if I'd just quit being scared of the roundness. I can Smith ledges and feeb blocks and I've felt the cool roll over lock-in round rails provide cause I can front willy 😅 well on them at the new park surprisingly. But man I'm hoping these tips will help me with the confidence. Again I can Smith or 50 to front broad square rails but round is sketchy. (Edit: oh and boardslides on round have been no issue.)
