Reason To Believe: James Hardy

[MrBradtime]

no theres no such thing as a front side over crook its a nosegrind not an over crook if its back side then it can be an overcrook and for regular crooks both front and backside are crooks

[FrogMike81]

he's been in Faith like half the times that i've been there.

[NoNoDigUpStupid]

yes, but you never see tricks captioned "fs overcrook".. they just call it a nosegrind. overcrooks are really ever done backside, when theyre further over than a normal bs nosegrind.. we called em gersh grinds when i was coming up after g mos.

[talktal]

they should have used the oiginal version of this song. the pixies cover sucks

[frostontube]

james hardy is a beast.

*put led zeppelin's "the ocean" to the background with no sound. pretty sick.

[tighthella101]

this guy is sick man i loved his part in ride the sky it sucks he slams so hard

[sokkerstars]

i just went to faith shop and bought me a brand new zero board.. nice stop, well supplied to.. ty

[lorenzomnia]

James Hardy is like the present Jamie Thomas..

[badnamajamas547]

thats a horrible comparison

[salvadorcanales93]

how old is this vid ?

[bitchassrobert]

like 4 or 5 years ago, it was around the time when new blood came out! i think....

[NateDoggg3]

his style is perfect.

[midnightskate]

i think that was supposed to stand for grandpa? guess this dude doesnt know what a real GPA is?

[kristo311]

There is a difference.A nosegrind is strait and a overcrook is tweaked over the rail.Opposite way of a crooked nose grind.Theres a big difference.

[fondantpluscake]

@kristo311 its all the same

[godspoopies]

@kristo311 but a nose grind on a circle handrail will always be tweaked so in some cases, there is no such thing as an overcrook or crook

[keepitepic456]

yeah man. people can call it what they want, but if you asked james hardy he would say it was a nosegrind.

[kickthebass428]

nosegrind overcrook whatever skateboarding is skateboardin love it or hate it just dont argue about it.

[vomitinggiraffe]

I agree more with you, though I still think there is a difference between nosegrinds and overcrooks.

[beseriousplease]

So just to recap-

65 comments later it can be called either an overcrook or just a nosegrind. Loyalists will refuse to use the term overcrook, but a need to clearly define the difference arose in Tony Hawk Pro Skater- "overcrook" was used and now its commonplace-

[mikesenny]

this guy fuckin RIPS. awesome style

[rewindDUDE]

exactly, overcrook is not a trick. straight nosegrinds on rails are hard.

[blueoctober6]

i love the way he flicks his kickflips

[GavDSK]

that overcrook was sick

[cheeze7700]

i got to skate with peter karvonen tonite at veterans

[HAPPYxBANANAxCAKES34]

boring pat and karvonens parts way more fun

[Zero4L]

You really don't have to balance on nose grinds, like when I nose grind my whole nose is touching.

[ChrisDub1]

Your nose should never touch on a nosegrind

[rewindDUDE]

unless its on a rail. however these ponces call it an overcrook.

[AlchemistIdiot]

real overcrooks are way harder then nosegrind. its ollie OVER the rail and then crook. there are asshole kids who do pussy overcrooks, like nosegrind and pivot.

[franoloots]

its crook

[wyneaux]

ive sk8ed wit this dude he fukin rocks

[skatemerika]

By nosegrind you mean overcrooks

[rewindDUDE]

overcrooks are just pussy nosegrinds. its easier to get out of and easier to hold.

[shnerpler]

are you fucking retarded?

overcrooks are alot fucking harder than nosegrinds.

[rewindDUDE]

it is a nosegrind!!!

[SkateSF10]

SOMEEBODY PLEASE POST BAIL MONTAGE!

[bballboarder019]

hes got slide tricks to shoves out on lock

[TheATMurrell]

Even though he mostly does rails, I still like him. And I've been to that spot he BS smithed at the end, and its HUGE!

[MIAGangsta]

Jaime Thomas backliped that

[TheATMurrell]

...I know.

[letskate0126]

backsmith is so much better

[ATMurrellFilms]

Heath's tailslide down it was still the best

[peroslowned]

i think backlip is harder because you have to get your board all the way over the obstacle and that ledge is fucking high

just my opinion though

[LoveScottDraft]

agreed, sean maltos back overcrook is pretty sick but im glad it was backsmithed

[stuntmanjarred]
