    I have no idea what my best tricks are, I'm getting a little too old(38) to be pulling off the best tricks of my youth. When I was younger I used to do much more vert than street skating, so I guess various handplant tricks and mid-air 720 variations. Nowadays I don't have access to a bowl or half-pipe and as my street(flatland) tricks where always poor, I only really use ollies and the occasional kickflip when needed to clear a kerb. I think my BMX skills have stood the test of time better than my board skills even though I have invested much more time into skating. I think a bike is much more forgiving as you get older.

    I look up too you. Skating is what it is now because of the pool skaters and Vert skaters from the 70s and 80s. When they banned skating but people were skating anyways. The sport has progressed alot.
