man i have to ask, whats the trick to your three shoves that skim the ground? has it always just been natural for you?
i really have to say they're fucking orgasmic. i've only seen two other people do them like you, one was someone i played in skate at the skatepark, the other was a professional (the name of whom i cant recall).
so anyway, is there a special way you hang your foot over or anything? or do you just manage to do it?
I have actually always done them like that. from single shuvs to 720 shuvs, they all skim the ground. I can pop them too all the way up to 7's but they are much harder for me and a lot less consistant.
My 180,360 and 540 shuvs that skim are quite honestly every single go. It's very rare I miss a 540.
Key to keeping them low is a smooth (ish) floor, hang your back toes almost straight down and use both feet. If you just use your back foot the board shoots off.
i absolutely love your style, it's a lot like mine. and watching your videos inspire me to attempt more late flips (i've been getting 360 shuv late flips working on) ever since i started watching these. Subscribed.
I've never payed to much attention to my style really.
Looking at it now I never seem to move between my knees and my shoulders. I'm pretty much all arms and lower legs.
I'll sound rather big headed saying this but this really isn't some of my cleanest work to say the least. I tend to look a little bit more comfortable on a skateboard than in this video lol.
I blame the carbon fibre board I was using that day......really weird and not reccommended.
Well I normally set, bs 360shuv, fs 360shuv, bs360 big spin, 360 shuv it late flip, feather flip, shuv re-wind and fs shuv late flip. Late hardflips are another one for me and fs 360 shuv late flip is effectivly a finishing move for me lol.
i love Flatground, i love flip, and manual, i dont like real street (Stairs etc...) i hate the people said because dont use Stairs and spot... but i love it... what the song?
Well now you know. Didn't mean to sound rude. It's just I get slated pretty badly on here for not skating ledges more often. But the truth of it is I ain't as good on ledges as I am on flat.....so I'm not gonna film ledge tricks that ain't anygood.

I really wanted to comment you, you seem like you have a lot of experience and know what your talking about in your comments.
I really like your style too, I like that your tricks are done ninja fast and low. Look sick. Beast 360 flips..
How long have you been skating?
NickLeiger 2 years ago
I've been skating since 2000. I haven't skated for the last 2 and a half years though thanks to a nasty injury that refuses to go away.
As for my tricks being ninja fast.....they have to be for me....I can't jump all that high anymore lol.

The song is taken from a live recording of Rahzel vs Rob swift.
Your best bet of finding it is probably a shareware like limewire.

why u gonna go to a skate park to do flatground?
sk8GiRL258 4 years ago
1: It's not a skate park
2: Cause at the time it was the only skate spot you wouldn't get kicked out of
3:Cause flatground is just as much skateboarding as leaping down stairs or doing tech ledge stuff.
