Re: Bet you didn't know Adam C could skate like this - "Pancakes and Ketchup"
Post a vid of your self doing switch standers around hairpins at +30 on cliffs with no guardrail, and then you can be unimpressed. I mean, yeah I can do pretty much everything in that vid....at half the speed (if that). That's what makes it so sick!

There are very few who can skate on his level.
This is not the best DH video at all though. That is a wildly huge statement. Old SC8 videos sh1t all over this. The grade, the absence of guard rails, aren't sh1t compared to booking ass down the French alps in a group of six skaters and a buttboarder filming with nothing but stone walls to soften the blow of going off the road. If you think that this is honestly some of the best DH footy then those classic videos will literally make you cream your pants.
Re: Bet you didn't know Adam C could skate like this - "Pancakes and Ketchup"
that was ####### gnarley wow.
its one thing being able to throw switch standies... another thing being able to throw switch standies at speed...
it's a whole new world throwing all sorts standies to control your speed when going down a techy road with a steep grade and no guard rails with big rocks to cushion your fall on a two way rd.
Re: Bet you didn't know Adam C could skate like this - "Pancakes and Ketchup"
Even though this is pretty cool, this isnt even the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Adams skills. I know he can do this but faster. The man is way gnarlier than this video shows. Wait till video actually comes out of Louis and James doing switch predrifts. Im not sure if Adam can do them, but it wouldnt suprise me at all.
Re: Bet you didn't know Adam C could skate like this - "Pancakes and Ketchup"
Is it just me or does everyone else think James video is much more impressive then Adams. Also they are ridiculously similar its kinda creepy if you watch them back to back. Both very gnarley though
And another thing. For everything who was making fun of the title. Did anyone else consider that it might not be totally be stupid and actually mean,
"Pancakes (as in Pancake Slides) & Katchup (as in Catch Up)"
