Mm. I've tried them. I've landed a couple, but there aren't that many walls around my house. I have to go to shopping plazas to do that. I went to the movies last night and landed about three wall stalls. The fell on the fourth and just went back to spins and stuff.

On the wall plant ,, try to get as much of your sole onto the wall as possible. Common n00bie mistake is to just try and hit the toes.

Also .. land with the knees nearly bent and then push out (on landing) .. this gives you lots of friction to stick the wallplant.

Hope that helps.

So lets see....so far I have wall plants and stalls for my tryout video. What other flatland kind of things should I do?

Well - 360 to pipeline to fakie is the most common (but essential) routine. We see that a lot. But it never gets old.

Trick is to do it pretty fast with lots of snap. Like 360 - snap! Pipeline - crackle! Fakie - pop! And a quick revert to go back to normal.

One more thing .. make a cool vid, but your first usually isn't your tryout one.

Okay. Do you have any tips for doing a pipeline? Because I can't do those yet. =/

h4l

I was watching your stall vids and I cant tell if you use the toes of your back foot when you come off a stall. its so smooth going back to your wheels its hard to tell.

and I'm having a hard time knowing if I should just land on both wheels, or only the front wheel and my back toes.

Thanks

btw I really liked the double stall on the park bench 8)

h4l. That is a tight nickname right there. I will now call myself that. =]

Thanks for the comment about the smooth transition. I appreciate it. =] And yes, I use my back toe to soften the land and to push off to give me some speed.

No, don't land on just your wheels. In my opinion. I used to do that, but my knees would buckle, I'd crash hard, and make out with the pavement. Not fun. And it screwed up my old axles. No good, no good.

And thanks. Those were fun to do. I'm working on different kinds of double stalls. Like disaster to one footed, etc etc. I'll stop talking now. Before David comes and shoots me with sarcastic comments for something I said.
