New Video......finally.
: You had surgery? Doesnt look like it lol! Some rad skating there!! I'm jealous. ;-D

Thanks! My surgery was not nearly as intensive as yours was. However, my neck is really sore today from one big fall I took. I had to jam my right elbow pad (P.D.) into the flat, which caused my head to do a little whiplash maneuver. I can't turn my head left very well right now. But, it was totally worth it. :)

Cheers!

 Wow, great skating! Wish I could do that.

How is your knee now? At least the skates seem to hold up.

Thanks! You can do that.......just go out there and practice!! :P

I never notice any knee problems unless I try to bend my knee really low. And even then, it just gets this feeling of tightness, but still works all right.

Cheers!

Thanks Ludi! I was having some trouble with my slider plates, though. I already want to redesign them better. By the way, what does the 'h.' stand for?

Hey! I LIKED that 360! I happen to enjoy the 'sketchy' landings MUCH MORE than the buttery smooth ones!
But, yes, Senile, guilty as charged. Do keep the videos coming though........I really dig your style, Bro. Even when you don't!

Not much else to do there in the "outback", eh?!
Well, at least it is good exercise. Though, obviously not an exercise in restraint!!

 I just realized that my son also has another video up where I am doing one of my newer tricks. At 2:40 in this film of his, I go upside down in an oververt cradle. I've actually gone higher, but this is the only shot I have of it on film thus far. Click HERE.

Maybe...but I kinda like it for some reason-(the music, that is).

Funny, hanstand to fakie is easy for me. What is hard for me is to do a line fakie. I'd love to learn that.

 : What is a line fakie?

Doing a "line" is a series of tricks or a skate park session (run) that continues on for some time without stopping. Not just one trick and it is over, but rather a run of tricks in succession.

A fakie line is doing a "run" while skating fakie.

Yes, and thanks! I've added some modifications that can be seen on my photobucket account. I also put a new video out today of my skating on Tuesday night. Here is the photobucket of my sliders, and my new video:

I thought you were gonna trim down your sliders (too wide). I like the alley-oops over the hip...rad!

 : I thought you were gonna trim down your sliders (too wide). I like the alley-oops over the hip...rad!

I'll trim them down when I make my next prototype. I'm actually starting to get the hang of them (as they are now). I'd like to take off maybe an inch at most when I redo it. To redo them now would be a painstaking process since they are bolted and glued, though the glue would most likely be easy to separate with the slider section.

Thanks! I love alley oops, but I feel a bit rusty at them right now. I'm not getting the height I want. But, I know it'll come as I get back into form. I'm starting to also learn tricks carving to the right. I normally always carve to the left. (Old habit from the days of skating in a rink I'm guessing)

Makes sense for you, a Goofy skater. I carve to the right for that trick over hips and have been making a few to slides on the mini. Going the other way is blind and scarier
