These tutorials, although in Japanese are awesome. Split into different videos covering everything from basics, carving, fakie, to advanced rail slides and big air tricks.
There is something for everyone from those just starting out to those starting to freestyle and even freestylers wanting to improve their style/technique.
A big positive about these is each section starts with basic technique/balance/body positioning, e.g. it describes how to land fakie without putting your hands down in front (there're 'good' and 'bad' examples). It becomes evident that these riders are sooo awesome and stylish because they've got the basics first. There are so many you tube clips out there of people doing all these rails/jumps etc, but look at the difference in style, these guys know how to pull it off with style and clean landings. And they're not boring videos, they show some great riding, the rails and big air sections are worth watching for pure entertainmet value.
Thanks to Phil for making me aware of these - think it'll help me a lot esp. in the tricks dept
Can we make this sticky? Think it will help newcomers.
Cheers.
