Me and My cousin

[af1 1982]

This is a video me and my cousin made. It toook us 2 days. My cousin is 10 and I am 15. I've been skating for 2 months and he has been skating for about a year. Anytime you see someone with a sleevless shirt or an ankle brace, that is me. I know there is a lot of ollieng but that's basically all that we can do besides popshuvits, 180s, kickflip. Enjoy

i wanted to stop watching it after the first clip where one of you ollies a deck and screams YEA!!!!! but i kept on watching it and preatty much the whole video was you guys ollieing stuff and screaming ya!!!! you should have put some better 180s in instead of the ones where you land then pivot right after because you dont fully rotate and also i didnt see any kickflips or shuv its in that video (might have missed them) and u said u can do them so it would have been smart to put them in

Thanks for posting and I appreciate your insight CopsPushMongo. The whole video was done in 2 days and on the second day I just decided to try 180s b/c I've been trying them for quite a while then I just quit on them. Then I landed it my first try. Also I'm sorry about my cousin screaming YEAAA but give him a break, he's 10 years old and he just ollied his first deck that he tried like 50 times. Anybody would be excited. Oh yeah, 1:32 for the pop shove it, 1:35 for the kickflip.

don't quit on your 180's....thyey'll come...

[af1 1982]

Thanks yoda_emo, before I practiced everyday on my 180s and then I couldn't get it so I just stopped. Then when we were filming this I was like let me try a 180 and BAM I landed it. The trick is for me was not to think about it. It's easier then I thought it was. All you have to do is wind up, ollie and guide with your front foot while unwinding and land.

Tell him not to look at the camera after each trick. Looks... awful.

[DCsKaTeR]

Tell him to set his front foot back a wee bit more to get higher ollies. That will help a lot.

[af1 1982]

Thanks guys I really appreciate your suggestions. I will tell my cousin all this stuff.

[af1 1982]

Also, do MY ollies look weird to you guys. I notice that my back leg is usually off the board most of the time. Is this acceptable?

[mcwattersm]

There is nothing unaccetable, just a different style of olling that will change and grow over time.

and yes... i notice that with you and one of my "Friends" (i dont really like him that much... i actually hate him) does it so much that it is not even funny

[af1 1982]

Alright, thanks guys for your input, I really appreciate it. I'll change the things I'm doing wrong and make it better and longer with some bangers and slap some music in that.
