I need some more help with vert-

Pumping: I can get enough to do a tru stall, but if i don't tru frontside right after i jump in, i can't get enough speed.

Backside: I couldn't get very far. i landed them as a stall a lot, and if i did move it was very little.

Air- I know i need the pumping first, but i want to try to get air for a spine transfer.

Please help. I'm trying my best by myself, but i wish someone could actually show me what to do.

Pumping: Practice your timing. After that just practice, practice, practice.

Backside. If you're right footed planted backsides are to the left (so you're grinding right foot forward.) Tru backsides are to the right. And vice versa for leftys.

Air: Yeah, you're right work on pumping first. Don't even worry about air.

not exactilly on the subject of vert but i found out that during the day (8-3 for school) the local skate park is a ghost town, completley dead(well not THAT big of a surprise) so when i have my hour for lunch im gonna go and see what kind of shreding i can do with my own skate park. Smile
Im not good at all so prolly just a few short grinds and a 180 but hey, itll be alot better than my garage.
