-powerslide(such a fun trick)
-boneless(180 + varial)

banks:

-360 pivot(inconsistent)
-revert up bank
-ollie to fakie
-crappy ollies out of banks

Probably going on 6 years. I can do most of the basic flip tricks, a lot of lip tricks and then airs over hips and spines and drop in and slash grind on a full-size vert ramp.
