Sproing

[PhoeniX51]

Hey, I don't know if this trick is really called a Sproing (cool name though) but it's when you push the board to spin a 360 on the ground while you walk like a couple steps and then jump back onto it. It's pretty fun, I've seen Mike Vallely do it before. Any tips on how to spin it more than 360 without killing yourself?

[w1skater]

noooooooooo idea what you are talking about lol.

[PopwarPunk]

I know what you're talking about but I don't even know how to do 'em.. Sorry.

[Sk8 Or DiE]

wtf? you get off your board, walk around then spin it? i dont get it. try to desrcibe it better

[PhoeniX51]

lol well it's like.. ok you put your back foot like on the edge of your board and jump off but push the end of the board so it goes spinning on the ground and then you run and catch up to it and jump back on... not sure how to explain it any better lol i'll see if i can find a video if you want

[Sk8 Or DiE]

it sounds as if your just flinging the board way the hell out there, hoping it lands on the wheels then running and jumping on to it

ive seen this before..i used to do them before i could do shuv its.. i think it looks stupid but its cool to fool around with

[Flipstreetskate]

i think it is just a no-comply 360 shuvit. if not thats close to what it is in the Tony Hawk games. just mess around with those, theyre easy.

I've seen Mike Valley do it once. Hes skating at a fast speed and jumps off the board, as he jumps he pushes the tail so the board spins. But it's on the ground and spins, then he jumps back on.

Not sure what its called but I do it all the time on the baksteball court.

If you've seen Volcom - Chicagof you see it in there, Jimmy Boyce does one in Geof Rowleys section, it's pretty much a 360 flip no comply.

[dsc6072]

That dude has a SICK style.

[grimreaper65]

We call those spinouts here

[just_skate_]

we call those the _________ because noone really does them around here. i think ive done one once though, just screwing around.

[falloffboy101]

ive tried a few. the best i can get is a varial flip or hardflip no-comply lol

[stronghold]

woah..?? how do you get a varial from spinning the board? :S that requires no flipping

[falloffboy101]

i dont know you flip the board then you put your foot down for the 'fake no-comply'. it's hard to explain

[NitrousX]

Thats kind of like a pressure flip...try to do a 180 hardflip.
