i'm sure that's really really hard and all, but wakeskating just doesn't translate well to tv/video. in person it kicks ass though

frye, maybe if you were less of a dick on occasion, people would take you more seriously.

JV, Asking that douche-popsicle for any usefull information or to expect an intelligent response is asking way to much from him.

Ian_82, A 360 flip has been landed on a wakeskate , champ. You are fighting pretty hard to make frye's statement valid. Go stick something amazing on the tramp, but keep it off of the water.

I thought that was pretty impressive...That guy went HUGE for a wakeskater! Shocked

Or at least compared to the little wakeskating I have seen Confused

theres no wind resistance on a trampoline and there isnt much on a skateboard compared to a wakeskate either. that w2w big spin is awesome Shocked

i also wanna know what song that is but good luck with that eh

The song is called Remember Me (abstract reality) by cunninglynguists

See I told him to stop wondering. And you guys are calling me a dick. Sheeeesh. Rolling Eyes

i think the thing about it being just a bigspin is because its a long ass video for a short clip, regardless of the sicktitude of the trick. a bs bigspin is by no means an "easy" tirck on a skateboard (if you actually ride, not on a trampoline) but to take it huge like in the video is something that you dont see too often.

I thought it was cool and I have respect for it. But I'd watch wakeboarding over wakeskating any day.

CRAMM · Posted: May 09, 2006 12:02 pm Post subject:

I cant even watch the vid but if he sticks a w2w big spin it is def worth watching. Anyone that thinks landing a big spin is easy hasnt ever tried anything on a skate Rolling Eyes

kyle, I can do backside 180s switch and regular. I didn't bash the video, I just offered frye some advice for life.

It is a sick video, and that's that. Stop arguing.

That video makes me want to just stop wakeboarding and wakeskate from now on... so sick

that wake to wake backside bigspin was so clean.

I don't know how some of you guys can't be impressed. I believe that very trick won wakeskate trick of the year in 2005. Ian 82 like people have said a 360 flip and bigflip have both been done before and were best trick nominees, but were beaten by the wake to wake BS Bigspin.
Cheers for who ever found that song name.

I agree with the general consensus that it was an absolutely amazing trick. Between the height and how he caught it so cleanly it was truly artful, transending a simple "trick". I think the best part was when he raised his hand out of joy. Who hasnt done that at one point or another?

Holy. That is awesome. Fry is right, if all wakeskating looked like that then wakeboarding is the new kneeboarding. Wakeskating is so much cooler.
