This man is so underrated. He’s taught me most of what I know about skateboarding, his videos are amazing quality, and he’s George! What more could you want?

[@Ryanhogue26]

Agreed, but you actually need a sponsored skateboarder from the San Francisco Bay Area

[@jbsk843]

I love this video!!

[@leafcup3068]

love this vid, also for the third one i’ve always been told it was called fakie pop

[@rayvindawkins5304]

I'm glad you made another one. I've been trying axle stalls for years and never got it down becuase of my bad habits with the trick maybe I could try some of these instead.

[@davidmokine2044]

For axle stalls it helps a lot to be able to air out. When you’re good with your air outs then go into the axle stall thinking like you’re going to do a small air out. Make sure to lead with your front shoulder and really turn it in so that you get the 90 degree turn to get on the coping. Make sure to exaggerate this shoulder motion and to turn it more than you think you need to at first. Also learning axle stall drop-ins first helps a lot too. For those just have your toe side wheels locked up against the coping and then shift your back truck so that the heel side wheel is locked up against the coping, and then you just kick turn in and lean forward. I hope this helps you dude, learning axle stalls really opened up my skating and I hope you get them.

[@turb1943]

hey george love the vids keep it up look good feel good skate good

[@bnglrtv]

Geeooooorrrrgee!!!
Best way to end off the week. Love your videos bro!

[@LucasSilva-no2jj]

[@Mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn]

george!

[@squidwardtentacles6581]

these are literally my go-to tricks except the last one.. i guess i should learn it

[@Ryanhogue26]

th-cam.com/video/5OwpVfiQSsY/w-d-xo.html

[@andrepinto908]

Man I can’t explain it but your videos are suck a fucking vibe
It makes me calm but at the same time gives me the hype to skate

[@wantmeX]

the fakie disaster to hurricane took me forever to learn, for some reason

[@_jayden_viljoen_5761]

Please more I only progress on transition Bc of you 😩

[@Dolowincraft]

I just rescently lerned three of these tricks, i just need to work on the swith rock to hurricanes and the crook revert !

[@Ryanhogue26]

th-cam.com/video/5OwpVfiQSsY/w-d-xo.html

[@joeskull]

I call that last one “Fakie Disaster to Smith Stall”.

[@BANKROLSGALLERY]

Love these

[@D9-do1xw]

I'd say another super fun and easy one to learn is nollie frontside / backside disaster! Start without the pop, then add a little spring in your knees and the small nollie should carry you into a disaster

[@alex.nevz.5577]

Great vid george! Inspired to ride some halfpipes now:)

[@Ryanhogue26]

th-cam.com/video/5OwpVfiQSsY/w-d-xo.html

[@diegober6556]

I like george

[@nickdorer5228]

nice vid

[@XSProgression]

I’m trying all 5 of these next time I skate

[@xaviergrimm5789]

I didn't know that poptart was its name either, I dig it tho. Oh, and nollie smith stall is easy too (idk if you mentioned it)

[@yoboyblake9284]

Noti gang

[@mchungleplumble]

Haha poptart I like that. I've normally heard it called a "pop rock"

[@J_Lpzc]

This makes me want to skateboard right now but it's raining all week here

[@Ryanhogue26]

th-cam.com/video/5OwpVfiQSsY/w-d-xo.html

[@bhavbk8635]

Uk?

[@J_Lpzc]

@@bhavbk8635 nah NYC

[@rayvindawkins5304]

I remember the other easy quarter pipe trick tip video you made back in Connecticut. The good old Geebus days 🤩 (Not that is was really long ago you made that one)

[@Ryanhogue26]

th-cam.com/video/5OwpVfiQSsY/w-d-xo.html

[@CarlosColuccci]

Bs disastar is pretty easy too and looks sick

[@oldladyfalling7844]

I really wish there was some smaller quarters near me to learn these on...cooper and maccarren are just a bit too big, want a little one to start on...
George have you been to Under the K yet???? In Gpoint under the Kosciusko right near sarge's?? Place is so sick....don't know if it was made for skaters, but it sure feels that way....great ledges, gaps, ride on grinds...really fun place...

[@rayvindawkins5304]

Same bro. I go to Kennedy park and Long Beach park on Long Island but the quarter pipes are way too big for me. Same with the mini ramps. One of them has a tiny like 2 ft quarter but that’s pretty much it. Something small like a three foot mini ramp would help

[@tikeojohan]

Thumb up - but still terrified about rock to fakie ahaha (street guy trying to learn transition..)

[@contentclown]

Thanks for the vid! I'm just starting to learn quarter pipe tricks. I can only do a rock to fakie and rock and roll. Do you all feel like it's too early to start learning nose stall revert? It's a dream trick of mine! Is it easier to do nose stall to switch drop in or nose stall revert?

[@Ryanhogue26]

th-cam.com/video/5OwpVfiQSsY/w-d-xo.html

[@dantetruett5712]

❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@mounteverett8340]

(tip)the pop-tart is a lot like a chinese nollie, so if you get good at chinese nollies, you can do this easily.

[@pickleinabag1031]

Reacive your early gang QT pickle

[@nickg6460]

Pickle received

[@leannemartell6214]

we have the same helmet :))

[@destroya_2345]

I fucking love nose stall reverts. Imma try the crooks next session

[@joseandres138]

What’s the difference between a hurricane and a smith?

[@yairmishory9200]

It is a Smith... A hurricane would be a feeble 270 out...

[@wyatt27rock18]

Yea Tal

[@peruperu-jj8zs]

why is it called hurricane? Isn’t it just fakie smith?

[@yairmishory9200]

It is a Smith not a hurricane

[@komoonkh]

If you skate with music, you should get earphones without noise cancellation or turn it off. Otherwise you will get hit by a car. Low volume also. Be safe.

[@123-xe4zrndkdkdkf]

feeble to fakie should also be in this video

[@mad_films]

All these look so intimidating to me. Not sure how to approach ramp tricks, I guess it just takes trial and error.

[@oldbonz]

We have been calling that third trick a "pop rock" since the 80s...its named after the candy and cuz you pop into rock. So either fakie pop rock or nollie pop rock. And to your point, Fakie is just way better and looks rad as hell. 🔥🛹👏

[@addisoncarpenter5675]

Did it cut out for anyone else?

[@georgepoulos]

Pls don’t tell me I gotta re upload this

[@nickg6460]

No it didn't you don't have to upload it again your good

[@connorkemp1355]

Poptart is just pop rock and fakie pop rock

[@tomchevalier3955]

Thé other guy has much more steeeez

[@ajay9298]

Wouldn't the last trick be a fakie rock to sugarcane?

[@roblahey3249]

yup, think he misspoke cause you go into a feeble for hurricanes

[@cupboard_raider]

I lost a speed ring, can I still skate without it?
edit: got out a magnet and found it

[@Ryanhogue26]

th-cam.com/video/5OwpVfiQSsY/w-d-xo.html

[@vindogg87]

poptart? its a Chinese nollie but w.e

[@semrtr5760]

I thought trick 3 was called fakie pop rock

[@pingst0n892]

+algorithm

[@marshallmalone7174]

I came

[@sillydriller]

Trick #3 is called a Fakie Disaster, invented by the Master of Disaster, Duane Peters…
Edit: My dad skated at the Big O skatepark with Duane Peters in the early 80s

[@victorschmidt3164]

did he really just say krooked stall lmao

[@georgepoulos]

What would u call it?

[@roblahey3249]

?

[@charles-cw5ig]

Bro half the video was a ad for the worlds shittiest headphones I bought those and replaced them with $5 wired headphones theyre so bad
