Have you thought about picking up a laundry detergent producer as a sponsor?

Cool video, Glad you found it and shared it.
Nice slick mud. Just like here after the spring floods.

on the vids it says 1 year ago but i think its more like 2 as id just got my 15m synergy.
theres something about hitting the beach when its still wet. at Ainsdale its always hard packed under the wetness so i dont mind getting soaked as long as i get that "FEELING!!"

Carl man more awesome work. My hats off to you. you must have sand permanently embedded into your skin too haha. When i see skid marks all over you it definitely backs up your posting signature :). I live (and crash) by that!!

ok guys i need inspiration................ for the upcoming bksa series of comps, i need more tricks. im working on handle passes and putting more loops in my run but anybody got any advice on what else to put in there. runs are aprox 10mins and if you say 30-1min a trick. what is a winning run in your eyes? the old addage always applies if all else fails, spin to win!!!

jesus walk... bout 6" off the ground :smug:

flyboy15 - 9-3-2010 at 12:00 PM

i agree on the jesus walk, and have one more for ya.

Foot out madonna with a toe drag across the sand, like the parachute guys do when they do those high speed water passes.

Any kind of drag, be it inverted with your hand, or whatevs.

PHREERIDER - 9-3-2010 at 12:47 PM

i have unhooked back roll with a kiteloop on my mind, or hooked in. it's not super showy...but maybe inverted. its on my brain as fundamental master trick for sure.

slim chance or blind judge kinda thing certainly would be showy though.

not sure how all these rate in comp. handle pass gonna rate high you can count on it

zero gee - 9-3-2010 at 12:53 PM

Ya, I like the look of the hand drag (hand plant) backroll kiteloop. Shawn Richman does them the best... Smoooth!

I can watch your stuff all day long. Keep it coming. Thanks Carl.

Bladerunner - 12-3-2010 at 05:50 PM

I haven't seen many people do that move you have where you slide out and spin a 360 on the down low as well :thumbup:

In that recent video posted by DenisLaMenace the guy does a very kool old skool board off where he puts his body + board in a striaght tight line and pops up rocket style.He also does a nice high straight up Jesus on the cross type thing board off, between legs and arms straight out. That + the Jesus walk in the same set would be something ?
Same guy ...... Board off rest it on folded knees !
Inpirational stuff!!!!!
