Practice Nose Manuals on a Shortdeck

TWO-BY-FOUR · 05-21-2008, 09:55 PM

When I was about nine, my grandmother bought me a twnty dollar skateboard from Target. My dad took away my longboard a while ago, and it'll still be under his control until July 3rd, so I was wondering, would it help to practice nose manuals on a shortdeck, or not?

Yes it would, and you can also slide like forever with those PVC wheels

would it help? of course it'd help, its a skateboard, innit? hell, you could even learn to ollie or something while you're at it. but... no pressure.

No. If your foot even touches a shortdeck, you will lose all your longboarding muscle memory, and will be unable to even balance on a longboard the next day.

Duh.

God help you from tainting your dainty, innocent feet by placing them anywhere near a board that is capable of lifting off the ground.

Jesus christ kid, honestly.

tbh, he was merely asking that if by learning to nose manual a shortboard it could help his nose manual skills on his longboard when he gets it back....in simple, YES. manuals on shortboards are GREAT trainers
