Vera Nice Bera Nice !!
Some fun things for you to try next.
1. When you're going backward (which looks really nice BTW), try hitting a 360 and pump back down the ramp.
You lead right foot when going backwards, so try spinning to the left. The higher you can do it, the better it looks. You lead right going forwards so experiment a bit (I switch going backwards).
See here (beginning of video) I'm doing some:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mjd-pmPxss
2. Try a footy stall to footy drop in. If you nail it nice and high, its a nice visual change-up to your routine.
Again - see here (at 12 seconds):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mjd-pmPxss
3. I really like your Frontside on vert .. that's looking very nice. Maybe mix up the way to drop back in. Right now you're grinding left to right (nice nice). But instead of going in clockwise, try Kami out the grind (just go counter-clockwise). This might be a little hard .. but if you're feeling it, try it out.
Its fun and looks mad sweet when done right. Just remember that your entry should be a be wide (over spin a little) .. this is because your momentum is carrying you left to right (and not just down). The faster you hit this on your grind, the more you have to overshoot. The more you've already slowed down, the less you have to overshoot (because your horizontal momentum is less).
That's what this young fella is doing wrong:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8hwE4UD2VQ
See in second 18-19, he comes out of the FS Kami. But since he didn't hit the FS clean, his momentum is stopped. When he overshoots the Kami (which you should do on FS), he doesn't have the momentum (FS wasn't clean). Otherwise this would have worked. Seth does it better in 1:11. Try to come out of before the end of the grind .. and it looks hot.
Nice Gels .. I guess you use just one sometimes because the handplants?
Looking really good tho. Really good. What are you, looking to win Heelychat Comp back-to-back ??

thanks!!
LOL the vera bera thing made me laugh.
I've tried those 360 things before, haven't got any on video though, I will for my next vid. I'm also working on a 360 air tru thingy
Umm, do you mean a footy drop in? because it looks like you just go in normally ? other than you jumping up higher than me before you go down again
and kami's .. I really don't like them. Well, they look good, but I've been scared to do them ever since I smashed my head doing one (In my first ever vert vid). I guess I'm gonna have to try them again some time, so yeah I'll work on it. The annoyng thing is I know I can do them. grrr! They're like my arch-nemesis!
and yeah I just use one sometimes because of handplants.
Thanks for the advice |

No problem Chicka!!
Um .. hmm .. what was I saying .. OH YEAH (sorry on some flu medication right now. Brains a little cloudy) .. Footy STALL .. not FOOTY Drop-In .. WAYYYYyyyy different. Footy drop-ins are doable .. but I don't recommend it .. Just a nice pop pff a footy stall changes up the routine a tad.
And yeah .. I know what you mean about Kamis and falling and all that. After I fell on the Koby, I didn't want to do it for about 10 whole minutes. Then I made myself do it. But yeah, I know what you mean.
G'Luck!

haha I thought that was probably what you meant
see 0:11 (frontside footy) and 1:29 and 2:24 (backside footy). I tend not to hold my stalls for very long so thats probably why you didn't notice them. |

Ah - got it .. then that's more of a style thing I guess. You've got the free wheelin' WHHEEEE style for that stall. Mines a bit more deliberate. I stop and then pop into my spin.
Cool.
Vera Vera Vera ...
