i started this thread cause of what someone said in the new moves thread. (i forget who -- sorry). ive been trying to skool them more lately. and holy is there lots to remember!!! the spotting kills me. i can never remember to look before i delay. gah. getting better. and i think spinning osis feels sooooo cool. in the same thread, whats everyones osis record?
ive hit like maybe 5. what the heck??? i hate osis!! :p

EDIT: i swear -- spinning osis is just as hard as mobius. GAH!

i hate osis too. my record is 1. if i had it though, i'm sure my strings would be alot longer.

ps- i could probably hit spinning ducking spinning osis back to back before i get 10 osii in a row.

My record from a long time ago is 42.

Osis is totally lame unless you "know how to use it".
I put that in quotations cuz it doesn't really make sense and I'm too tired to make it make sense.

Anyway, I don't know how to use it so it sux... and it isn't even a spin.
Lots of people just scoop it without even twisting or rotating in any way.
I don't like that.

Also, osis ruins my game. It seems like the only thing I can do after a symp dod is osis... it sux. I'm going to try to stop doing it.

osis are cool :p

and whats cool and lame is a crispy torque where you dont twist(spin) at all, thats how i do them lol

my record is 5, but i only use it as a bail... and only on my strong side... and only ever set it to pdx mirage or leg over... gonna work on those for a while!

when i get osis, i'll use it ALL the time, cause i can think of some styly combos out of it.

I like osis. Torque moves rock, and it's really wicked to spin and in-spin out of osis. It's too easy to get in the habbit of bailing to it though, I keep having to snap out of it and do other shit. But come on. Mobius! Marius! Inspinning torque... aren't these the coolest moves?

My record on op osis is only like 12. But I haven't tried much. My same osis record is 20something. Now that gets ya dizzy.

How good is Lon? At 2000 worlds, he started his semis routine with spin clip-gyro clip repeat, then went straight into spinning osis-peeking osis repeat. And it was a cool song too, `Camelwalk` by Southern Culture on the Skids.

I personally don`t like osis when it is an obvious bail. Y`all should check out Just Shred (I) and check out how Mulroney uses his osis. It`s all zooms and blurries, real cool-looking.

I believe that was me bitching about osis in the moves forum erik

I personally think osis is a very nice looking move, if done properly. I love doing spins out of them (zooming right?) and pdx whirls and barflys, but I still can't hit them consistantly. In fact the funny thing is, I hit spinning osis more often than osis itself. I just don't get it. Anyway I'm going to spend the next few weeks exclusively on osis until I can do it in my sleep. It's always the spotting that get's me, then when I focus on the spotting I forget to crank, then when I crank I forget to lower....vicious vicious move it is.

I have one goal in mind....mobius>mobius
That is a wicked combo and vasek makes it look so easy.

I like osis alright, but almost never do it. I think I can spinning osis better than spinning clipper, but then spinning osis was my first spinning move.

Muffinman · Post by **Muffinman** » 09 Oct 2003 10:52

im starting to think spinning osis is easier too. thats neat

i go watch lons routine now. how could i have missed that. what video is that in? the black and white routine was 2001, right? hmmm...

osis are ok...i still suck at em though. i think they look cool if they are done right and not just a bail.

I have a habit of sealing a lot of my tricks with osis too. Symp DOD isn't one of them, because I haven't even tried hitting it.
