More of a fan of ass grabbing in freestyle.. Japan air was the first trick other than a mute that i've gotten...

The japan was sloppy though, I hucked it out hardcore... Pics this season.. lmfao. X_X

<<<Boned out tailfish in the avy...

Nod to the old school with a method...

EDIT: For some reason, David Z, your pic didn't show up when I looked... sorry about the double method post folks...

Horrible picture because you can't even see the grab, but it's a suitcase grab. Bring it back like a method and grab the toe side between your bindings with your leading arm.

/\ wooo that is a lot of flex in the legs/knees to grab the toe side, isn't it...
Sweet though !!!

You know what?, I had the same freaking problem all season last season. I couldn't figure out why i couldn't reach the nose, but then everything hit me like a brick wall when i realized that my setup was a bad setup for grabs and park riding. I had a really stiff board, boots and bindings. It was my first season with my own (used) setup, and it just so happened to be a super stiff setup made for free-riding. So after I bought a new setup (Never Summer Evo with Forum Shaka Bindings (which are both on the softer side of the flex scale)) that was made entirely for park riding, I was able to do a nose grab on my first attempt. PROBLEM SOLVED --- And I'm sure you can reach the nose and do a nosegrab even with a stiffer setup, but hell, I sure couldn't!

Jesmond Dubeau - Hello World

if you want to fast foreword, 2:42 for the sickest crail ever. but i'd give the whole part a watch, pretty sick!

Who cares if you like doing tindy's, do them.

FUCK what other peoples opinions are.

My favorite is melon, but you probably know that one already.
