We should really name that trick

"reverse swirl toe" deserves a name. I've been hitting that move for at least a year now and i've always called it "Blink".

So, this is a video about "blinks":

Blinkup is about a billion times cooler.

Edit: That vid was amazing. Great stuff.

Very cool concept

You do it very well and very cleanly!

I am wondering though, with all those new cool moves and that crazy 3 move combo at the end there... why didn't you enter the online competitions?

he says:

you must come to quebeb with kolo and give a moment (demonstration")

,

the world of quebec i see, they "capotent"?
they see kolo, they fall on their backs
if you travel here, their eyes will drop (expression), that know is very cool

(?)

all "fourni" of course...

idk.. i quit french class , hope that helps anyone who can't read french

my own translation:

you must come to Quebec city with Kolo someday

people in Quebec city are impressed when they see me (im the best player in Quebec city, intermediate ... Kolo is my teacher)
when they see Kolo, their mouth fall off
if they sould see you, their eyes would blow in their own face

of course, you could sleep in my house

thats not exactly when i wrote in french, but thats what it meant

sorry for the inconvenience

Spontaneous Spaz · Post by **Spontaneous Spaz** » 04 Sep 2006 08:33

akalazou · Post by **akalazou** » 04 Sep 2006 08:43

Translating languages literally (like a computer program) usually doesn't get across the actual meaning.

Ianek! Can't wait to see you playing again at KICKASS. I think I have some new stuff up my sleeve since the montreal jam!!
