And please tell me, is the term Cabalerial BigFlip a new school one ? When I started skating this was still a Fakie Gazelle Flip

I can totally relate to the HArdflip struggles, I am in the same position so often ! Great video, enjoying the passion for skateboarding. Missing the Australian birds in the background from my trip in 2019.

im setting up a 7.5 at the moment, its what i started on back in 01

Surprised the nosey neighbour didn't turn up and tell you to f off or he'll call the police 😅 Speaking from experience.

Never forget Dave Bachinsky kickflipped El Toro on a 7.5

That spacer piece is there so that your bearings are spinning kind of on that when it's pressed up against it instead of spinning freely on your trucks It helps make your bearings last longer and spin more consistently😊

What is shoe size in Australia? I’m an Aussie and skated for 25 years and the whole time skate shoes are sold in US sizes, there is no Australian size chart hahahaha rarely they may be marketed in UK size but never have I ever heard anyone mention they wear a UK size. It’s all US sizing

It's ok for your feet to be way bigger than the board. It's true 7.76 and small wheels is very easy to flip. But if you skate transition it's going to be too small. If you skate street it would work. Too small for me though I skate a 8.5 and 8.75 I'm a size 12 US.

Felipe Gustavo still skates an 8. And it’s like an inch shorter than your average skateboard at like 31 inches.

I love 8.5 and I have tiny feet lol I'm probably biased to that size because I like Longboarding and Transition Skating. I find 8.5 helps me not over rotate/flip my board.

if u skate smaller wheels it will be even lighter

the bearing/wheel core spacers make a solid connection through the inner races of the bearing. it is better for the function and longevity of the bearing from a mechanical perspective. if you have them you should use them

i like phillips hardware, looking down at allen bolts would bug me out. grindking rocketbolts look sick, the heads are star shaped and they just pull in as you tighten the nut. so you don't need allen key or screwdriver or anything

i like standard weight trucks. i could maybe see the benefit of hollow/lights over 8.75"

the 8.38" has really tapered kicks, so it probably feels smaller than it is. i'm 6'3, 205ish, 11.5(us), i used to ride 7.5", 7.65" in the '90s. i'm usually 8-8.25" on popsicles and 9"+ on shapes. 8" trucks on an 8.25" deck is fine, just want a wider wheel shape like a radial

I went up to 8.5 and then back to 8.38 but I am still struggling to learn 360 flips, also recovering from an acl replacement so I am also going for 8.25 and new trucks when I get back at it. (My shoe size is 9.5 and I just liked the way wide boards felt riding around and landing)

You should try it 8.5 for a 9, that is a size I would recommend.

I wear a 13 US and ride a 7.5

Enjoyed the video man. I searched for skate deck sizes and this came up. I’ve always skated a 7.75 and it’s because that was the norm in my little town back in the day. But I think my next deck I’m going to go wider. Iv got size 9uk feet.

Sick! You can really see at around 70 you figured how to get more rotation!

HE'S BRINGING THE BOONIE HAT BACK

I skated for years I notice the difference , some aren't quite 180 and smooth . Some of them were real nice man , Ya legs must of been killing you after that lot . Good effort tho man , keep it up . Can you do nollie trays , they were quite fun when I skated and fakie big spin flips . I did way too many trays over the years , my right knee isn't what she use to be . I was always more of a fan of backside flips tbh . Frontside flips were always a bit weird I found .

Flippen Heck Zach! Noice Flippen work ;)

👏

It's not like it was sadly, but all its still out there m8. It's just redbull n Asians ripping park comps jk.. that next generation (your gen) got distracted with scooters because it was easier then they realised it was gay and now they just play with there Phone's hahaha. But your not a that's dope try start a crew just gather the outcasts n find a car park with some manny pads and kick it!

🔥

if you think that parks bad you would shit on my local😅

Im a street skater and I loved this park. Its got some funky stuff like how the 9 stair rail being too steep and things like the wasted 5 stair but of course parks will have things like this. Its a great park especially for rail skaters. If i wanted to say everything good about this park it would go on for ages.

Pretty sure dudes in the uk would love to have a park like this. Also it just seems like you’re not good enough to skate there, that A frame rail looks solid.

Beach fossils!

We grew up skating street with your big group of mates. Experiencing all types of different spots and life experiences. No one cared about being good. It was all about the fun. Not like going to a skate park to train. Generation full of skate park skaters who can’t skate street. Skate parks are repetitive. It holds back true board control and being able to adjust to anything outside of a skatepark theme. Everyone these days wants to skate to be better than others. Not to have fun as a collective. It’s the generational change from it being a fun lifestyle with mates to training as if it’s a sport with rules. The lifestyle is disappearing. That’s why all new skaters are so generic and boring even if they can do all these tricks. Style always beats ability. And you’ll never have a non generic style when you spend your whole time skating in a generic place.

Happy late birthday! Skate your park! Lol

I dont think mastering switch heels on flat ground will get you anywhere. However riding at fast speed and using variety of obstacles while landing simple tricks with proper touch eventually will. Ive seen skaters with very low variety of tricks but they are masters at their domain and it looks epic. Building on top of that is much easier and much more joyable as well.

I only realised your a small youtuber after checking the comments at the end of the video, the whole video is great quality and tbe thumbnail too, keep up the good work bro your 100% gonna go far.

Grind the damn bench do it for bluey lol

A whole bunch of flatground tricks? Instant sub.

Great video ❤

U made me get new ideas😁 i enjoyed the video keep it up maaan !

You should try some late flips

This looks fun!!! I think I could get close to the 150+

You got a dope bag of tricks dude you should work on that style you tick tack everything

I always thought a sexchange involved a kickflip and what you’re calling a sexchange was just a body variable but what do I know.

I think I've done two full cab bigflips ever, that trick is so hard to land clean! Awesome video idea!

Bruh I used to watch all ur old skate vids when u were in maggie

Always need to vent sometimes, shit happens- gotta move on, enlightened ourselves to something new and improve everyday, fucken hell you unit.

Keep up the awesome skating bud!

Dude nice skating! I liked and subscribed! I also make skateboarding videos, Could you subscribe and maybe check out some of my videos? Thanks! Keep up the awesome work!

Nice video bro keep it up
