**Damon - Spring/Summer 2008 Sampler**

[Shocker333]

I've been tricking for I'd say 9 months. Before than I just did a lot of flips and junk so it could technically be longer. So I'm pretty much a noob (sort of) and this is what I have to show for it.

Feel free to give me tips!
Maybe when I go back to the gym I will actually practice roundoff backflip twists and corks.

[breykdown]

you have nice gainer flashes, and the fulltwist flash/step outs are clean as hell. what did you do before you started tricking, you have way too much power to be a noob

[Shocker333]

lol, ok maybe I did gymnastics for 4 years.

[<sky>]

dude your hella good to have only been tricking for 9 months

[Shocker333]

I mean 9 months might be an underestimate being that I have done gymnastics. But my limited knowledge of tricking when i joined this board two years ago was 540, b-twist, double leg up till 9 months ago.

Thanks for the replies

awesome work for just 9 months!!

hey mang, its obvious that you did 4 years of gymnastics in your samp cos your flips really stand out, i think what you should do is work on your kicks and get them to the same level and start stickin them in combos together more, ten you'll be really impressive mang.
good samp though mang. great flips and i loved ur intro

[Taimatsu]

You wanna good tip?

To improve your combo-ability, strive to land EVERY trick with your CHEST UP.

Awesome work mang.

That was very enjoyable! More variation though please! You seem to be pretty good at kicking, so do 360s, 720s, c720s, c900s! Also, take your shoes off! You'll be at least 1m higher in the air, especially in those delicious fulls and hyperfulls. This is probably the first time I've really enjoyed cartfull variations!

[skylerhall]

your tricks remind me of skilz and sesh. pretty badass for 9 or so months, actually really badass.

[Shocker333]

damon, you are a hero.
when are you gonna come trick again?
No, Kevin you are a hero - make the sampler!
I want to real soon but a combination of summer classes and Indy Wrestling never works out.
July31 - Aug 3 I'm free, I might head home if you guys got a session.
I might be there one day for the Michigan gathering thingy.

Yeah, I will definitely work on the kicks, I've always been a flip guy but I will work on it. And the intro was actually less elaborate than most of my intros. I actually gave up and did something simple but I'm glad you liked it.

u can jump high as fuck lol

[Shocker333]

What you are actually seeing is a spring floor with turf over it. I cant actually jump that high. lol

[dpitlock]

wtf when did this happen?

[Shocker333]

One Summers Day!!

[strider-hajime]

that was nice! loved the gflashes and hyperfulls, you should work on doubles, and you rounoff flips are huuuuge!

[daviddalo]

that was awesome man =) one tip, you should leave them shoes off :wink: kicking will become alooot easier, well tricking in general haha

[Melf]

Nice! You're flips are already good and if you work on your kicks a little bit you could do some pretty sick combos and stuff!
