So, quite some time ago there was a Skateboard company called Powell/Peralta, they had some sort of killer street skating team (until H-Street emerged), they put out this video called "Ban This" in 1989. The Trick I'm about to do stems from that video and era. It doesn't really have a name except, well, "the ban this trick". Because no one has see this trick before or after in any other video since that video came out 20 years ago.
Now, as I've said before in previous posts, any time you pop your board up into your hand and jump back on, the Barneys go ape shit and the Flatbellies look at you with such disdain. This trick has been part of every one of my sessions since 1989, so I have it down like Nicole after OJ. Again, High-5's & Pounds abounds my friend. Barneys will take you on any road trip as their street-cred guy, to show the flatbellie that old guys can still skate street better than them and to show other barneys that they don't have to hang up their street style for a 17" wheel base. As of the ending of this post, I am currently listening to "the 5th dimension (live in Paris)" by X-Dream from the album "trip to Trancesylvania" 1996.
