Yep, thats right. Grab there or on the nose. I don't think it matters (don't yell at me if it does). personally I think it looks better if you grab heelside above your feet, but the nose looks good too.
Check out the 'trick list', accessed from the main page, all grabs are listed. (Dragon, link me up, I can't be bothered tonight ...) _________________ Terminate high thinking |

yeah a seatbelt grab is a nose grab with your back hand, when you grab in front of your front foot on your heelside edge with your back hand, thats a nuclear |

Ahh ha! I was wrong. Completly forgot about the nuclear. Much better looking grab if you ask me. _________________ Terminate high thinking |

Personally, I think they're both nasty looking. Difficult Yes, Cool No. I'd take a boned out method anyday over a Seatbelt. But that's just me. |

Check out Keith Lyman doing a Seatbelt 911 in Level Ten Magazine and tell me that grab isn't better than a method. It's crazy he comes in heelside and completely airs it out, and is fully committed to making it a 911. Huge and into the flats. |

Ya, I like seatbelts, but for some reason, I like grabbing a big old ROAST BEEF, thats a cool one, but quite easy. Maybe I like it because I like arbys
alright....enough temptation _________________ weezer or bust |

Nuclear. With a tantrum or a HS backroll. Nice. |
