I have been working on this trick for over a month (i had to learn brent stole first) and in the last week or so i’ve come to the conclusion that i finally got it down and then couldn’t hit it at all the next day. Today i got back to the same point i was at before and now i can land it about 7/10 times but man, this trick has put me through a lot of frustration. I love the way it looks and how it feels when i land it though. Anybody else have this issue with this trick?

Abby I love how it’s called “for noobs” when it looks like 10 times harder. 😛 Good tutorial though. Might have to give that a learn later. 😃 ---
