Coleman/pendy 360 thing

RothToAnExtent · 08-08-2008, 10:23 PM

Well firstly, what's the actual name of the slide where you pendy and when pulling back, you pull past the 180 point into whatever number of rotations you feel like doing?

And also any tips on how to pull it off?

Not sure about the name, but this link helped me a lot.

sounds like a pendy followed by a 360 etc. technically a switch 3.

Ya, I've seen Faltown numerous times. Trust me, they don't have that one listed.

I've never even attempted that, but its similar to a backwards pressure spin (or it looks like it). Try doing a pendy and then as you go back try to make yourself into a pin-wheel as you pendy back, that might be the way to generate the spin, but once again, i'm only guessing.

I just watched it a few more times and it looks like a back pressure spin, i'd try pressure spins before you try those just to get an idea of how to get the rotation.

The best way to learn this in on a hill, on your board, just like the guys in the video...

You can't just learn something you don't know how to do

I can do pressure spins, just not half as well as I can flat spin.

correct me if i'm wrong but i've always beleived flatspins and pressure spins were the same thing?

I thought that for a month or so, but then one of my more experienced slide buds told me the difference is that a flat spin is when your feet are laying on their side on the board and you're a little more forward facing because of it. Pressure is when more like doing the same motion but with you body and toes facing downwards, more like your doing a surrender slide.

This is just what I was told. It might be like something that Paul picked up personally, I dunno if it's gonna be the same for everyone though. Seems pretty logical to me too.
