Fakie Pivot Grind

[RadioActive782]

I can get into them really easy, but grinding is something else, any tips ?
And yes the curbs are waxed.

Well since it's a mini-ramp trick...

A fakie pivot grind is : fakie ollie + nosegrind.
It can be done on ramps too but also on street. I mentionned "curbs" so read the whole post.

I'm under the immpression that it is actually a off axis 5-0 to fakie. Also known as a 'slasher' grind.

"Slasher Grind" .. never heard of. Man this thread looks *****-up right now.

Well a pivot fakie is DEFENETLY a mini ramp trick mabye the gring could be taken to street i dont wanna argue about it.. To tdo the trick you described ''fakie nose grinds'' just pop a nice fakie ollie push down hard on your now back foot to get into the switch 5-0 try and ride it like a switch manuel although tail scraping is fine keep your shoulders in line and weight over your board, dont lean back a rediculous amount. ** DOnt leran them on curbs it just makes things harder find a ledge it dosent have to be massive mabye only two curbs is harder because you ollie so high over them before you land there is a big momentom loss and you will tend to stick and fall into a 50-50.

Wos that so hard ? Anyway thanks, and the curbs here are twice as high as an ankle, all those trucks that pass by. And I will try it on ledges too.
I just don't give a shit about curbs/ledges/rails/... Just wanted to know how to do these.

k wait, you mean, fakie ollie, nose grind, then do like an 180 pivot while grinding?

[tryhard_skater]

^nope, but its odd that its called a fakie pivot? grind when there are no pivots involved. sounds cool, also good to learn if you cant switch ollie.

[RadioActive782]

Don't take the Pivot litterally.

oh

and for cheese, a lot of grinds were taken vcert to street, as in the smith for instance

[evilcheese00]

No i meant that i didnt think it was possible to take that trick to street well not in the way it was described, it's obviously the wrong name for the trick thew pivot thing threw me off.
