I bet none of you even know how to skate. Why don't you learn how to skate before you make a lame crew about it? Oh wait, you can't fit that into your tiny little brains. SHOOBIES!

lol i can skate...ive been at it for 4 years...and how about you post footage of yourself here? so we know if you to can skate or not

Then they're like, "Um.... maybe some other time, dude." That's the first sign that many, if not all of them are posers. And I know a poser when I see one.

Everyone I know that uses SK8, from my experience is a poser, which is why i said usually... And its usuallythe people that say they can skate better than other people that say SK8... I guess its ok for people to use it its just like a pet peeve of my or something like that... Also, from my time here, i've come to learn that most people don't ever post footage, then only people that i've gotten or seen footage of have been from the Skate Flash Club...

the way you spell a word has nothing to do with how good of a skater you are

its easy man. all it is is a pop shovit kickflip. a long time ago i use to have troble landing it too. but here's what i found out. if you put your front foot more back, towards the back trucks. this makes it alot easier for the board to spin. its really easy once you practice.

Hit the tail as you would for a pop shove-it, and as the board starts to snap up, flick your front foot just like a kickflip. That action will cause the board to flip while the shove-it action from your back foot will make the board turn 180 degrees below you. Don't flick the flip too hard or it will flip away from you move your feet out of the way as the board does its thing below you. Let the board smack you in the feet as you catch it at the height of the trick. Use your feet and hips to guide the board back straight as you drop back down.

how many people on this crew actually skate.. im asking becuase you guys are calling yourself the "SK8 crew" not skate crew, and it just makes it sound like an avril lavinge song.

anyways i dont know if its been discussed before, but have any of you thought about creating a virtual online skatepark. where people can go and chat, play a game of SKATE or something like that. just an idea seeing as there really arent any good skating games one the internet

project 8 does look sick though,

i really hate skaters who say "im better then you" skating not about that its about community and sharing your experiences and skills and having fun, you dont need to show off people can see weather your better then you or not

oh yeahh. thats smart. i could probably try youtube.com

Response to SK8 crew 2006-08-18 10:12:01


Okay, Here I go replying to the whole page..

I never use the word 'SK8' Because it's just not correct slpeling. ^_^

Lol.

Varial Kickflips arn't that hard, all you have to do is scoop with your backfoot and kick and turn with your front and land.
:Undetailed answer.

Yes I do skate, alot.

Horray.

I am actually an Action Scripter for flash so I might be able to start working on XML (Internet Based Script) And make that idea a reality.

Yes I know Internet Based Script does not start for XML.

+h4+ D00D \/\/h0 +41kZ LyK D15, Stop Talking wierd and start learning english.

No Affence.

Project 8 Actually does look alright doesnt it.

Yep

Skaters who say "I'm better than you" Are usually the skaters who are jelouse, or they cannot. And if they do skate better than you they are proberly just not getting the reality check that SKATEBOARDING IS NOT EVERYTHING IN THE WORLD, unless you are obsessed. Skateboarding should be for fun, not to show off and think your cool.

I'm better than you... At being uncool.

Post your skate footage on Youtube.com or Putfile.com

I Recommend Youtube.

As I said before, the skaters who say they are better than you are usually not.
If they say that they just think If You Skate You Are Cool. Reality check, Notice all the people who say skaters suck? Well thats basicly the same thing, they proberly have never even stepped on a skateboard so yeah.

Horray I'm Still Uncool.

This is proberly my longest message and I now have 4,941 Characters Remaining.

I used to be able to land a hardflip when I was younger.
Now I'm just an old fart.
I'm 23 years old and I've been on and off skating for a while now.
Back in my High School years, I could hardflip as easily as I could kickflip.

I prefer sticking to basics, though.
Why?
Because I'm a Big-Style skater, I'm not too into the whole technical thing, although it is beautiful to watch.
I prefer gaps, launches, etc.
So the best tricks when you're going "big", are basics.
:D

I got a question.
Is it just that modern day skaters try and use the technical terms for this trick (and others) to make it seem like they're better?
Or is it that the terminology has changed through time, 'cause back in the day, we used to just call that trick a 180 flip.
Simple and Clean, that's all I wanted to say.
I'm not ragging on anyone, I'm just curious, 'cause as I've stated before, I'm a skater, but I live in a country that's nearly Third World, so we're behind on things like technology, style (Fashion or Music), and terminology.
