Lately I've started to really get into skating... both skateboarding AND inline skating. it's sort of a weird combination since they generally hate each other, but they're really quite similar, and so much fun.
Anyway, I've learned 3 tricks on my skateboard. The first trick is a manual, which is just "riding a wheelie" on your skateboard. I'vealso recently learned how to do a pop shove-it, which is a trick where you jump and spin the board around under your feet and land back on it. It's quite tough to learn, but fun. But my coolest trick, I just learned yesterday. It's called a primo varial flip out. VERY hard trick, and if you've ever seen Rodney Mullen skate, you've probably seen one done. You set the board on it's side, and balance on top of it. Then you do a kickflip and shove-it at the same time. Once the board flips and spins all the way around, land back on the deck.
Well... I did this trick 3 times yesterday and got it on tape! It was the perfect angle, perfect light, I had on a trendy trench coat, and everything was perfect! The part that sucks really bad... my buddy Zach taped over it. ..suck.

I hope you're better than me, you've been aggressive skating a lot longer, and more often.
P.S. - Kevin and I got all the tricks on tape again, sweet.
