yeah the best trick you can ever learn is style. I really hate to see flaspins, mctwists, grinds, etc... with bad styles... learn how to skate good and then learn how to do the rest. grinds, spins and flips..

360s, 720s or maybe 900s but please dont spin like a ballerina... try doing 360 with a grab like method or something... 99% better than a 720 ballerina style

do you do nice 360s and 540s? cuz if you dont why bother learning them flat!
if I dont do backflips I dont bother trying double backs!

hey does any1 know sum web sites that i can download videos of people blading, ive been 2 trueskater.com n youtube, but thats it
It is even possible to do a fakie 360 flatspin? I tried a fakie frontflip on a QP but I accidentally threw my shoulder into my stomach and the next thing I know, I was spinning on my side...like a flip, but knocked over. I also landed on my side, but I'm pretty sure it was like a flatspin...just need to verify if flat 360 is possible.
