New Set Up for a New Year 45 YOS

You guys should check out Shane's channel: / @ofb_skates
Our ongoing online game of skate has opened up some new skate ideas and tricks for me and he goes over some of the technique behind the tricks he is sending my way on his channel.
I hope you all are healthy and safe and were able to ring in the new year with some hope and gratitude in your hearts.
A huge thanks once again to / dauiwowie for the continued use of his amazing outro music.

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Right back at you Laurent

[@alexrebar]

Those frontside and backside ollies on transition are major milestones. Well done!

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Thanks Jeff, it’s been a while since I messed with them for fear of hurting myself again. Glad I did though.

[@huntterra]

awesome!

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Thanks Hunter

[@benmoor2727]

Ps, those backside grinds your doing are pucka!! Your better than you think you are. Nice ollie!!

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Ha! Thanks my man. Trying to stay humble.

[@NeilHesterSkateboarding]

Happy New Year Dude 👊🏼 going to check out Shane’s channel too 👍🏻

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Nice Neil, happy new year

[@OFB_skates]

Yeah Man, Fantastic 5 trick combo at the end! And thanks for the shout out. Ok, you want to powerslide on smooth concrete. My wheels are 52mm and I powerslide 99a slimeballs all the time on another board. Your wheels and park are fine. Really throw your weight into it, like, expect to come to a stop at 90 degrees. Tennis courts or parking garages usually have smooth concrete if you're worried about your park. I'll take a 180 if you pull it off. Hope you had a good holiday man.

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Thanks Shane, appreciate the clarity on wheels.

[@Deep_wolf]

Happy new year man! Wish to all of us to skate more this year!

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Indeed Wolf. More skating for all.

[@RonaldoBeatles]

Hey man... your 180 on the bank are looking good and so is the Fakie Shuvit. Good luck with the power slide. Try it on a more slippery (smooth) surface!

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Thanks Ronaldo

[@henningwagner1099]

Always great to see a new video! Happy and healthy 2021 for everyone! 😷🤮

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Indeed

[@danm.9045]

i’ll land a laser flip before i can backside 180

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Why are they so elusive

[@superchanneljim]

Happy new year buddy. I also have a new setup. I'll text ya a pic of it :) 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Nice dude! More skating!

[@alexanderkoller3545]

Happy new year!
Everything looks good! Now it's time for noseslide, 360 (fakie) shove it, big spin, kick & heelflip.. Try a varial kickflip 💪

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Indeed my man, time to add them into the mix

[@davidoldskater5502]

Happy New Year Dude !!

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Happy new year

[@earlysbitsstillearly8373]

Happy New Year Ben! Awesome edit and skate as always 🙌🤜🤛🛹

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Happy new year dude, thank you. Keep after it.

[@amskateboards]

Powerslides on new wheels are always harder. Older wheels slide alot better.

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Good to know

[@AlastoreFrost]

I try to think of powerslides as a 90" revert. If you can do backside and/or frontside revert, that's half of how powerslide is done, imo

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Thanks Alastore, I’ll try and put that in my brain

[@hannomackTV]

Happy new year Ben 🤟

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Happy new years Hanno

[@ata-ulhaque6907]

[@BenJaegerThomas]

Thanks yo. Skate on.
