Start Doing This Trick Again.


I know you think your favorite rider is good. But truthfully your favorite rider isn’t shit because he never did a barspin kickflip. I know this is old as hell but this kid Anthony hit me up on Facebook with it and I couldn’t resist posting it. I remember seeing someone (I think that dude Gino from Queens maybe?) do smith grind to barspin kickflip at the first Banks Jam but my memory is fuzzy. I also remember trying the trick exactly once when I first saw the issue of Shine this appeared in. I only tried it once because I bashed my shin and knee so hard I could barely walk to the bus stop the next day for school.

    My buddy Eric Stemen can do them and started doing them when he learned crankflips right after road fools 6 . Im pretty sure hes the first guy to ever do it. Way before that Gino guy.

    i remember that shine video alot of sick riding even good today. i ride left foot forward and spin the bars normal with my left hand, pretty much impossible to do this trick. the kid in the video spins the bars with his right hand towards his left forward foot which makes sense…cant do

    Such an awesome looking trick but so dangerous and hard at the same time. I wanna see fakie hop crankflip barspin from a free coaster shreder. I’ve got fakie hop crank flips and they are probably the smoothest feeling trick on a freecoaster. Sick trick, I’m gonna give it a couple shots when my ankles start to feel better.

    I”m trying to wrap my head around what you think the alternative way for kids to get to school would be. Like either you think that Nashua is such a small city that everyone could just walk to school (confusing since my high school was probably 10 miles from my house) or that it’s so big that it would have some sort of public transportation besides busses, like a monorail maybe.

    i started “freestyle” when i was 14 and im 23 now. i rode with super tenderizers for 4 years and ive paid my consequences trying kickflips. ive been to the bone countless times in those days. i try riding smarter now bc of that scary ass trick but props to those who nail em.

  • http://Website michaelvick

    jesus, super tenderizers were the worst. a couple summers ago i shinned myself so hard that you could see the bone and i had to tape that shit shut, and that was with a plastic pedal. if i had a tenderizer on there i probably would have lost my leg.
