So, I wish all these fake wannabe skate coach dad's trying to cash in on their kids trying to be the next Bob Burnhurst, Ed Templeman, Jamie Thompson, etc. would at least do their home work on skateboarding's trick names before submitting an ad to a major Skate publication such as Transworld Skateboarding Magazine.
This ad here is from the latest issue, The Si-Bax interview issue, November 2010, and it states that the kid is doing a "Roast Beef" grab when you can clearly see it's just a backside grab Fly-Out.
Which brings me to mai other point, Fly-Outs are not skateboarding, have you ever seen John Cardio or Tony Tortillio do fly outs when they come to your town to do a demo at your lame park?
The answer is... No!
Don't grab roast beef, don't do fly-outs.
In the immortal words of Brandon Gochanour - "Friends Don't Let Friends Crab Style"
As of the end of this post I am currently listening to "Celestial" by Chi-AD from the comiplation "Goa-Head vol.8 (Disc 2)" released in 1999.
(note: David Young from Chi-AD started out playing Synths for black metal pioneers Venom under the pseudonym VXS)
