Me and my friends went skating the other day. I was playing around with my digitalcamera and flashmx. Neither came out too good. But here you go

No offense, but all I see is people jumping off things and people standing on picnic tables. From what I understand about skating; you're suppose to learn forward while grinding.

I as a very good skater I must tell you wrong. You don't learn forward while grinding, you lean.

Next, it isn't just about grinding, you can do your grab tricks, flip tricks, spin tricks, manuals, grinding is just one portion of it.

Eh... Since when can a skater do flip tricks? And I hardly ever see skaters do manuals.
And on street, grinding is a big deal.

You shouldn't be correcting me when you make so many mistakes yourself.

What? You have to be hanging out with some total *cough*posers*cough* then ;) Flip tricks are done just about anyone who skates, around here. You have to have about 3+ years (or more if you don't skate as much) around here if you want to be thought of as above a poser.

Grinding isn't a huge deal if you are great at flip tricks.

Flip tricks: Watch X-Games
Manuals: Do them all the time.

So what kind of tricks can you do?

.. You guys DO know this is inline skating, and not skateboarding; right?

In response to Camaro
You guys should be more descriptive then :P

Skateboarding, iceskating, and rollarskating are all called skating.
In response to Camaro
I repeat watch X-Games.
In response to Felodar
Ok listen... To do a flip trick, do you kick the skate off your foot then put it back on while in the air? I watch the X-Games every year, and I have yet to see a 'flip trick' with skates. I've never seen a blader to a manual(and it count as a trick). And you're calling yourself a skater?

-Camaro-
In response to Kunark
Yes, but if you looked at all the pics they were all inline skating :P.

Manual in street skating would be called a one heel rool.
In response to Felodar

In response to Kunark

<EDIT>
