As a wise man once said in a non-wise way (miniflipkid), I have a 8 year old style. Maybe its not THAT bad, but its bad. Here (http://www.ramprage.com/forums/media/showphoto.php?photo=2593) is what my style looks like, except mine is somewhat better.

My questions are:
1) Can you improve style?
2) If so, how can I?

Style comes with skating.

I have rather bad style, for my back foot often falls off.

Anyways, fully extend your legs-Catch your flips-Try to land on all wheels at same time-etc.

Okay. I thought that, but I was just makin' sure there wasn't a way to improve style.

i can see as you get older your style will be really good, i dont know why, that's just how it looks.

If you're referring to the video, thats not me. I posted one in the Promos/Montages section, though. I would perfer you not bring that back.

yeah dude,

you can't just "get" or "lose" a style, it comes naturally

everyone had that style at sometime in their life, you won't even notice it when it goes away, unless you can watch yourself skate

You can always try to stay as relaxed as possible when you skate. If you conciously do this, you're tricks will look a little better, but time is the big thing.

Just pushing around and praticing tricks that you already have will improve your style 10fold.

I think it's just cause your younger and your legs are a little shorter. It justs looks funny to me. It'll become better as you skate more. Ex. Nyjah Huston, his legs really aren't capable of doing a tre flip yet. Not cause he doesn't want to, he just has physical limitations. When he pushes it just looks weird to me.

Just practice. That's the key to getting better style.

keep doing the tricks you can already do over and over forevor until you get them where u catch everything and land them perfectly and the style will just come to you.....
