Moves: Frontside Corkscrew 720
Starring: Bjorn Leines
As with any trick you try, visualize clearly in your head what you want to do. Awareness is key when learning new tricks. And make sure your pants aren't too tight so as to not rip them in the butt. This trick is similar to a normal Haakon flip, except you're now doing it backward.
(You come into a Haakon flip riding fakie.)
Once you've learned corkscrew 7s, try to do different grabs, and always push it bigger and faster. For added help, watch John Sommers' part in Simple Pleasures, or Mack Dawg's new movie, Decade. See ya!
Hint: Don't even attempt this trick without first stopping at Einstein Bagels.
1. Go up the frontside wall with a ton of speed, like you would for a big frontside air.
2. Snap off the lip and look over your lead shoulder as your board comes up.
3. Spin and hold your grab as long as you can.
4. Land fakie, high up on the tranny.
5. As you're riding across the flats to the next wall, bust out your cell phone
and call Raul and Steve for some free shit.
