    Default Boneless'

    I was messing around with some boneless variations the other day and realised I'd never learnt to do a straight boneless. I went about it by grabbing the rail toeside and landed a couple going slow and decided to try them going faster. First try, I grabbed the rail and pulled the board up too soon as my weight was still on the board, resulting in my thumb bending the wrong way, it kinda folded back on it's self

    I was wondering, when doing straight boneless' do you guys grab the toe or heelside rail? I've also tried grabbing the nose with my lead hand, but they seem really weird... I was doing them on a 36" Deathbox

    grab toeside to gain control and pop high, anywhere else to move into a combo such as boneless head dab with late face grind.

    You grab on the top side. That means heel side rail on backside boneless and toe side rail on frontside boneless. If you grab the other rail I bet it's called something different.

    i grab toeside for straight boneless or boneless fs 180. If u grab back hand heelside u can do some rad shovits/360 flips. i recomend trying it especially if you are stuck in a hill free area like the jersey shore

    if (on a frontside) you grab it heelside... you got yourself a beanplant.
    Longboard is not a verb.
