    If you use search I think you will find a bunch.
    Is this where I type my signature?

    one good tip is to look forward anto the slide and then keep you head forward., the board will easier get back then more naturally.

    I learned pendulums, with both hands off the board behind me. You could try that.

    i use my free hand to guide my slides around like the master (cliff coleman) does. It really helps me get it back around for some reason. but it doesnt help when your trying to slide around fakie to take a turn switch....i ate **** and flatspotted my wheel to the hub...

    Its th ebest picture i could find to show u a little how i was doin my pendilum last summer. I have a new technic, but im way more closer to the ground. Harder a little but its so cool to see the concrete close to your skin.

    :P

    Tanx for the comments on the pictures!

    Your photographer is really good.

    I hate being the designated photographer, because i dont get to skate because im taking photos - and i never get photos of myself, and you all know how vein I am.

    My photographer on this one is Mr Daniel Soucy, but all the touch up and the design is by my self. Photoshop for the "decoupage" and patch-up the whole stuff together.

    True that.

    Rather be on the shot than behnd the camera. But all i ask from my friend is to push on the buttons. I set up everything before my run. This way, i know i wont have to do the shot 10000 times.

    I like taking shots but after a few I have to ride again. Its like taking pictures gets me stoked to ride quick. So I'm lucky if I walk away with 10 shots a session.
