I’m definitely guilty of the ‘where’s that spot’ question on Insta. I swear the original X-grinds are topside at the back, either way what happens when you’re alleyoop 🤔?Definitely harder with topside at the back Keep up the good work mate 👍 👏
Always found x-grind easier with topside at the back.. just like a lazy topacid. For me topside at the front is like a variation of top mistrial. I think both are cool in different ways =)
The most annoying thing about spots is when you post a spot and people ask you where it is and you tell them, then they go and skate the spot without you.
No.6 - Urgh as you said especially as a woman. There are much better ways to impress us /chat us up at a skatepark than coming up and telling us all that we're doing wrong on a trick we are clearly working on. Like sure if you have one piece of groundbreaking advice offer it up like "hey, I remember the pain learning x, and trying to get it to click, would you like some help or you got this? " like open a conversation, get rapport going first if you HAVE to tell someone they're doing it all wrong. Even worse when they're not even skating the same thing. I.e bladers to skateboarders or skateboarders to quad skaters stfu.
Personally I don't mind unsolicited trick advice. Sometimes I get unhelpful things, but I've gotten loads of useful advice unsolicited over the years. I'd much rather someone give me advice than sit there watching me make the same mistake over and over. I can choose to take the advice or not.
That’s a good mindset - but I think it’s better air on the side of caution, not everyone wants people telling them how to do tricks. I think it’s always best to leave it or build up a rapport or wait till they ask.
Honestly I just presumed when skaters say signature trick and it's clearly not an NBD that they meant trademark trick and it's something they're known for doing and not actually laying claim to it. Maybe I'm naive to the mega ego riders out there though 😅 Edit: typo
Yea signature and NBD are totally different things. Signature is what they are know for but it’s normally decided by the fans. NBD is just a never been done trick. That could develop into a signature trick if they did it all the time and were best at it
I honestly think the idea of having a section done to spoons may work mate! lol could bring some serious suspense to the edit! who's gonna do it first?! HAHAHAHA
This is an amazing one, that number 7 got me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I can hear and understand what you say now, I still reel it back every now and then just for laughs... Really great one Tom...
Topside X is fine so long as your weight is on the back foot, it's actually topside, and your knees are bent. So basically like you're doing a topacid, not a miszou.
I've always had issues with the x-grind not being more specific.... But then again, I believe that a forward savannah is a thing, so people don't always agree.
I always thought that Top at the back is a top X grind :) top at the front is X grind... just like acid and top acid, a steezy acid grind is harder to make than a top one, especially on the unwaxed ledge :P~
One Thursday Montre Livingston and Dre Powell showed up to my local lark and started hitting the fly box. I joined the action and did a 540 to flat that many of us were trying. Dre slipped out on one due to faulty concrete. I laced mine next try. As everyone congratulated me I got that stink eye like "you tried my trick" but everyone was trying it. So idk aita
It’s different if there is multiple people sessions a trick. My reference is when one person is trying for a while and then all of a sudden someone goes and does it, knowing they can do it. That’s different
“Who’s that? looks fun!” 😆 Definitely going to go with some primary school hymns next time I film anything, God knows my skating needs some divine help!!
I'm well out the game, I keep watching old edits, nothing wrong with that obviously, but can you recommend newish rollerbladers I need to check out? Also, any profile edits I need to check out. I rate your videos, proper. Keep up the good work they're hilarious and informative. Love it. Pls reply as I need some new skaters to check out to get my hype. Much love x 😁
Nothing wrong with X-Grinds with the back foot topside if they're done with good form. Very similar posture to topacid and topsoul. Check Farmer's x-grind gap the kink to back royale in VG19. Topside at the front is cool too. Similar stance to top mistrial. Quality video though. Entertaining as always!
@@rollforever_85 someone commented earlier they call it something else. I’ve heard people refer to it as topside x if the back foot is topside 🤷♂️ either way both tricks totally fine 🙌🏻
I do them both ways depending on the obstacle side..... When crossing legs its easier for me to cross right in front of left, i think its cause i came from speed skating and we were always doing crossovers turning left@TomMoyse
Still be nicer if they dropped you a complement first, like nice one Dan you can still do 900s, where’s that park. Aggressive rollerblading home of the polite is what I’m imagining
my signature trick is was sorry rocket torque at mmtf but i didnt win it was was really long too like 100 feet now i have to wake up to vegetable juice lol
This video will serve as a script for the next edit I get around to making, it’ll start of with me submitting that my ao Makio is an NBD, also my signature trick, we’ll be at skatepark where I’ll offer unsolicited advice to other bladers, right after we show a kid falling on an X grind I’ll do it in front of them and then repeat that clip for like 28 minutes
dunno if its right, but i always called an x grind with the topside at the back a topside x grind, do them the other direction... still dont see too many neg x grinds, looks disgusting in my head
A friend made me do a fun thing : x-grind in the 4 ways possible. Really good exercice. Might not be the same tricks and I don't know which one is supposed to be the real x-grind tho 😆
No.11 - Heckling people past the point of funny or if you haven't built up a rapport with them. The amount of times I'm at a skatepark and have random people heckling (and trust me none are original) whilst I'm working my ass off trying to learn a new trick. Okay once funny, you're a comedian haha yup "do a backflip" haha no heard that before. But past that like. Dude. It gets tiring fast when you have scooter kids, skateboarders, bladers, quads and that dog walker, all heckling when you're working on stuff whether you're a beginner or experienced.
Never heard that X-Grind one before. I did one back in the day down a rail on a wall. Topside was behind but the front foot was switch.. I think that is fine. I always wondered though should it be one way or the other? Its still an X grind with the feet swapped?
@@TomMoyse calling it singing is a bit of a stretch, but there are noises coming out of my mouth on some tunes. Have a look on my channel if you are curious.
"where's the spot" or even only "what a nice spot" and ignoring the trick ... it's just rude. It's so easy to say "hey, nice trick/well done" before asking for the location. haha, a few years ago, I got a comment from a Pro and he just said something like: "yooo that's my homie there in the background 🔥" ... totally ignoring the trick 🤣 I straight unfollowed 🤗🤣
Just like my name, I copied my signature-trick from Randy Spizer in Millenium 😅 😔The Topsoul to Truespin Soul 270° out I like very much, especially in Miniramps ❤️ I've tried the disaster inspin soul for a long time, but never really made it 😔 Randy is just too good 🥳
bruh you so wrong on the "where is the spot", I wanna know cus I wanna skate it. What the fuck are you on about. Love your videos btw but I completely disagree.
True. That still doesn’t negate that fact it’s a bit rude. Throw in a bit of conversation first don’t just use the person for your own gain. Complement the trick or something haha
@@TomMoyse I find it lazy... Always have, half of skating street is going out and spot hunting... Bust potential, foot traffic etc.... Kids these days I tell ya (rant done)🤷🤣🤣
Unpopular opinion: inline would progress and gain traction if it wasn't held to the jnco ball chain necklace baggy hip hop 90s nostalgic senate style. 20th century sport that the x games spit out... doesn't help people are pushing wizard skating. It's recreation with corny style. Inline peaked at Yasotoko Brothers acrobatics.... it's been almost 2 decades. We should be quad backflip 2160 rotations to win the Olympics.
I only do soulgrinds and frontsides. So I have two signature tricks.
Great comment 👍 👌 👏
Mine is a grabbed 360
I back this notion
Ya can't do that man it's my signature trick

I suppose so, but it always looks worse than a front-foot X-grind. Both look, IMO, pretty uncool anyway unless you flex the shit out of it.
Haha it’s defo not the coolest looking either way. Front topside a little better.
Equilavant!?? Loving that word salad too mate x
Haha I said it so many times. I was going to edit it out but it made me laugh
*Equilavent
I'm purposefully using equilavent from now on. Made me laugh.
@@cray- haha and ZESS slide instead of cess slide!
I would say that the topside foot on an x grind should go where your weight is, which could be front or back. It’s all about the style.
I mean I don’t really mind - front it correct though
I've always had issues with the x-grind not being more specific.... But then again, I believe that a forward savannah is a thing, so people don't always agree.

How about ao or Tru x grind? Topside foot should be behind or Infront?
Same position as forward. If your left foot is in front and topside going forward, it should be that foot topside regardless of direction
