Inverts are just monkey bar gymnastic copycatting…you’re right on about the ollie though. That’s what sets us apart from every other “sport” we’ve imitated…along with our rejection of limits.
sign me up for the mokey see monkey do then. I mostly like to mess around/roll around on my board and see if I can do some shit on it. Its all worthless or worthwhile depending on your perspective.
When I used to live in california I saw the worst drunken rollerblade skate coach dad I ever saw in my life. yelling at his kid “common conner look lively” It was awesome seeing him and his two friends do a triples routine on the baby spine in hayward. I think he was hopeing for the endless budweiser gravy train.
I forgot to work on inverts today too much add. I messed around with some rock and roll sliders instead and dorking around doing stupid shit for fun on my skateboard.

I can barely ollie, so most of what I do besides roll is lots of stuff with planted hands or feet. I just see the future too…

Speaking of gymnastics. Roller bladers are lame. I still don’t understand why they grab the invisible skateboard when they do inverts.

On that note, why do snowboarders grab the board when they do airs?
