How to Tiger Claw without getting razor?

**Jorelle** · 07-14-2009 02:24 PM

Everytime I do a Tiger Claw I always razor my tail. Anyone have any tips? (Or is it just impossible, which I'm sure it shouldn't be)

maybe your scooping your tail to hard with your back foot. personally i pretty much just pop the front up and then do all the rotaion with my hand and none with my feet that should fix it i guess.

Sure you could do it, but other more advanced tricks it is impossible without a guard...

wrong, you will get razor tail with the dervish.. doing tigers, and various other tricks, its good to have to prevent delams when it smashes into walls.

dont say "its a skateboard" like hes a kook for putting it on.

whats wrong with wanting to prolong the life of a board?

I guess I'll look into getting a nose and tail guards. And yeah, protecting a board is good! My board is already fairly roughed up, but once I upgrade to a fullsize dancer, I don't want to be smashing that thing around, as I'll be using my Jr Dancer to learn everything beforehand.

Yes, I do know it's a skateboard :| What about it?
