[GurisaYudistira]

If the non angled type of that trick is called Fakie 5-0, then the angled one with the hanging truck outside the obstacle should be called Fakie Suski.

I like seeing them doing the trick wrong a few times. It helps show what it looks like to do it wrong as well as correctly. Please show more mess ups in these How-To's.

[BenGutturals]

That's a fakie suski and the tail is a fakie front tail because your toes are pointed at the ledge on the approach.

[tottysker]

I never really thought of where my shoulders were when I skate, only when I do rotation tricks.

[CheezySkates]

[SkaterPatch]

[DorianDavisddd]

Do y’all trust him? He has two first names?

Its a FAKIE OLLIE SWITCH FRONT CROOK 👍. Tricks should be called by the direction you're skating & how your body momentum is traveling while sliding or grinding. Your natural stance is always used as your base/reference point. So if the above was nollie front crook then a mirror image would be a fakie ollie switch front krook. Easy peasy lol.

best tip was at the end pay attention.

Damn, its says I can die if I skateboard. I think I'll rather stay at home
