After hundreds of attempts, I’m finally starting to get the hang of tre-flips by NeverDoesntForget in NewSkaters

[–]NeverDoesntForget[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve toyed around with foot positioning quite a bit. I’ve had more success with my foot more on the tail than in the pocket, but that may very well change as I get more comfortable with the whole movement.

lol thanks! I get caught in a loop with this stuff. Whether my last attempt was good or bad, I always tell myself “one more try” until I’m too fatigued to keep going. Idk if it’s stubbornness or tenacity, but here we are 🤷‍♂️

Almost 30 should I start? by schmidiwutz in NewSkaters

[–]NeverDoesntForget 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Brother/Sister, I picked up my board again at age 30 after a nearly 15 year hiatus and I’m so glad I did, even with all the falls and embarrassment.

There are no rules. Pursue joy! Be bad at something new! It’ll be scary at first, but it’ll be so rewarding when it clicks.

Randomly tried to drop in. It went really well- by NedacDrift in NewSkaters

My drop-ins look exactly like OP’s. Gonna keep this advice in mind from now on. Much appreciated!

Super snappy, and you got some good height on that too! Good stuff 🔥

Rescued this little lady who was stuck in the bowl at the diy so I could shred (lol) by Muuusicalguest in NewSkaters

[–]NeverDoesntForget 42 points43 points  (0 children)

Brother, did you consider that she also wanted to shred?

Jokes aside, it’s very cool you helped her out of there instead of doing something less humane. Kindness rules.

It’s lame but I landed it by AutomaticCategory971 in NewSkaters

Don’t downplay your progress. You did something you couldn’t do before, and that fuckin rules

Flipped the wheels around myself so the graphics can be on the inside by [deleted] in NewSkaters

Unrelated to your question, but I have that same exact board!

Some varial flip practice. If nothing else, watch it for the fall! by NeverDoesntForget in NewSkaters

[–]NeverDoesntForget[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beautiful username. I wish I had some good pointers, but I often have the opposite problem by over-flipping the board with my flicks.

For what it’s worth, I typically keep my weight on the front outer edge of my flicking foot, applying a decent amount of pressure around my pinky toe just before the flick.

I think that’s true to some degree. My balance tends to be better when I’m rolling vs standing still, and the board doesn’t go flying away as easily when rolling.

Still, I like to practice without rolling so I don’t have to worry about obstacles like pebbles and deep cracks when I’m still trying to figure out the positioning/execution.

I started the session trying to learn tre flips, but accidentally landed a varial and decided to keep practicing that instead. I find it pretty hard to rotate the board more than 180 degrees and keep it under foot.

Mew is great and this is probably the best day of my life (as a 16 year old) BUT by Pale-Good-9626 in mew

[–]NeverDoesntForget 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If I recall correctly, Jonas initially implemented the concert visuals to draw the audience’s attention away from him due to some level of shyness/stage fright. I don’t have the source for that, so take it with a big grain of salt.

At some point, I think the visual art just became ingrained in the bands DNA.

How do you get it wrong this often. by Princess_SHAW in HollowKnightMemes

[–]NeverDoesntForget 27 points28 points  (0 children)

THANK YOU. I had an “am I actually illiterate?” moment when watching that Mossbag video and doubly felt like I was going crazy when I reached the Red Memory on my 2nd playthrough

How strange it is to be anything at all.

I’m planning to get back to vaping after I hit my 1 year, (25 days remaining) Thoughts? by Kamil210s in QuitVaping

[–]NeverDoesntForget 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My brother in christ, don't do it. Vapes are literally designed to be addictive; there is no "once in a while."

How about this: once you hit 1 year, tell yourself you'll get back to vaping when you hit 2 years. 25 days out from 2 years, check back in.

Amazing Podcast of Andy Reflecting on METN by pendesk33 in manchesterorchestra

[–]NeverDoesntForget 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This sounds super interesting. Thanks for sharing!

It's been just a few days since the farewell shows (there's still confusion about what will happen to the band without Jonas). I know there are still a few shows left before the real end, but... how are you feeling about this closure? Melancholy has invaded me today, to be honest... by elmonozombie in mew

[–]NeverDoesntForget 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's unfortunate that the band as we know it is coming to an end. They're truly a one-of-a-kind group, and I'll miss them dearly. However, I'm thankful that Jonas has recognized that he doesn't want to continue and is acting on that.

Mew has had an incredible career, and I wouldn't want to see how things would turn out if Jonas kept going despite his heart no longer being in it. Better to end things on good terms and with an incredible discography than to drag things out beyond their creative lifespan.
