Omar, you have answered all my questions I've ever wanted to know about busting air in just less of 4 minutes! Thank you so much brotha! Keep shreding!
Excellent series of vids. So glad Omar worked with you guys. He's always been a boss but his instructing skills are just as good! Exactly what I've been looking for, all of em.
its so easy for him, you can tell he's trying to keep it small but still catching like 3 feet of air. you can see how he lands just under the coping, so precise and smooth
This is when you watch a very well explained video, ... he makes it look easy,... you go to the bowl so confident, with all the theory in your mind, ... you see yourself doing it ... and when the moment arrives,... you realize how difficult it is, you hardly pass step 1 and you realize that your dream will take so much time and effort 😥
SuperKingbunny assuming you aren’t a beginner, if you spent 4 days at a skatepark committed to learning a backside air over a hip, you could land a decent one for sure. Issue most people have is that they go to a skatepark, try a trick for 20 minutes, then give up and move on and tell themselves they’ll learn it some other day.
Really nice tutorial, offers a good overview over the different aspects of doing hip transfers. One thing I've been wondering about: It looks like for the frontside air, Omar is just using the pop of the coping where as for backside he starts incorporating an ollie much earlier. Do people typically rely more on the coping for frontside and more on pop for backside?
PenaSJC What do you mean "no"? You say indy is back hand, I agree with you on that. At 5:13 he uses his back hand, therefore = indy. I guess an indy is just one type of frontside air.
Haha so true, it literally takes hours and hours of practice to get all this stuff, I’ve been airing over hips for years and only realized recently you get more air and it’s safer if you apply pressure to the tail. I figured it out through trial and error. Every winter I lose this trick and then have to keep doing airs over hips in order to get more and more air and make it look nice.
Looks so easy! Yeah, right. Regretfully, I stopped skating before the parks came back. I got tired of paying fines as a poor kid for street skating. Then, the job, married life and kids came on and took over. Now my 8yr old has asked me to help him learn and I'm sucked back in. I can still ride pretty good and set up some slash grinds but the ole tricks seem a lot harder these days! Haha...
The most comprehensive "how to" in transitions I've ever seen. Very clear minded feel of the flow! Thank you!
Thanks Nilo. Glad they were helpful.

Thank you Omar ! Simplified it for me after all these years. Cheers legend !
This is a detailed block of instruction, hope to pull this off soon !

@@PONYBOYonline Brilliant observation. Thank you. I will keep that in mind.
As long as you’re comfortable on transportation just early grab
If 5 years is a lifetime with natural ability.
This guy's a good teacher. Thanks broski!
Im really happy that you included round hips, thank you very much!
Thanks bro.....need the help and advice and it's good progression advice. Appreciate the thinking behind the video
Thanks for the hints, I go tomorrow pool riding (first time after 45 years, small pool) :-)
Go for it! Just be sure to do some warm up and muscle stretching first. And speed up GRADUALLY, feeling comfortable all the way, never forcing it.

no..gotta pop frontside once you get higher
I find usually if you put pressure on the tail the board end up going over the coping, even if it’s just a little bit
This video gives me feelings of an tlc series 😲
Thank you.... appreciate the tips
I bought his Vans a long time ago. They were dope!
Great coach!!
Thanks for all these tuto! that help me a lot :))!
Glad they are helping Florian. Thanks for the feedback!
This was awesome!
Best Explaination on transition..btw thank you Sir :)
Show!!!!! Obrigado!!! Muito bom!!!
you dont really have to ollie, just scrabe the tail :)
Back when west linn was smooth. Lol, love that middle section
Good shit!
What he calls a "frontside air grab" is what I've always thought of as an indy, and a fairly classic one too.
+Rufusdos
Indy air is only to back hand.
;)
+PenaSJC 5:13 it IS his back hand dude!
+Rufusdos
No bro. At 5:13 is the classic front side air.
PenaSJC
What do you mean "no"? You say indy is back hand, I agree with you on that. At 5:13 he uses his back hand, therefore = indy. I guess an indy is just one type of frontside air.
Indy is grabbing with you back hand but turning backside in the air, he is doing a classic frontside air at 5:13.
Do I need to use the concave of the tail for the ollie? Because you are standing more inside than outside.
probably for safety of the back foot, if it slip...
Even if you just put pressure on the tail the board will go up in the air and it’s safer cuz it sticks to your feet better the more pressure you put.
Airing straight to Oli-ing, that's a whole vid on its own.
How about the landing. How you keep the board from shooting out of the bottom of your feet.
2 phase : sucking the board to ur chest, then extend gradually to land, if ur are slow enough the board stick
Is it as easy as he makes it look?
Eduardo Leal no
the ollies are hard as fuck ^^
@@wantmeX not really hard, but scary as fuck :)
Ye
i need a wood hip to try blasting big ollies safely
Yeah all those tricks right there take about a year-and-a-half it don't take note 8 minutes and 24 seconds good luck fellas

One day... One day...

West Linn skatepark
hey this is omarassan😂😂
my local hip is so skechy
Erazzmataz mine too
fuck yeah
Ayyeee this is my home park
Which is?
@@risinaquarius west Linn Oregon
he makes it look 2easy
Now how do I get into my girls hips
He acts like this isn’t scary af
That park is for pros .but the great thing is won't be no poser scooter kids there
He says frontside Hip and it shows a still frame of him doing a backside melon
The shooting is so bad all angles are awkward and not helping to grasp the thing at all.
