This is Dita and I'm here to introduce you to a little something called
Staple Gun. So we've modified the skateboarding trick the Staple Gun where they plant their foot
here and allow the board and their other foot to ride out on the deck, come back to the coping,
and snap back into position to continue riding the ramp. What we've done is stop with one foot here,
continue riding our other foot out as if it was the board,
hooking with our toe here to give us the power to pull back, and when we approach the coping again,
we snap back into our regular skate mode. All right, the Staple Gun. We're gonna do this.
We're gonna want a lot of speed. We're gonna hit it, push it, hook it, and bring it back.
This is the hook if you look closely. This is the foot that's riding onto the deck.
So as you get it to a full extension, you use this foot to bring you back.
All right, all seriousness, this trick can be dangerous, so you want to really focus.
Tighten your core, hook your foot, and bring it back into a stagger. Except for our drop in,
focus on the coping. Step, hook, push, pull, and back. Heading in for the reverse,
you're going to do the opposite. I'll explain that later, but I'm going to show you now.
Set, look, drop, pause, and go. One more time. Set, look, drop, twist,
and go. I didn't make contact, but it still looks cool. I'll give it to you one more.
Back to back, triple to triple, and that's it. The reason it's reversed is because the toe
stop or hook position is happening on the deck, and the free foot is in the transition.
So when you're here, we're toe stopping down, placing the heel in, and positioning ourselves
like that. So if we slow mode it, there's a point that would look like this. One more time.
There's a point that would look like this. Thanks for stopping. I'm Dita, and thanks for dropping
in. I'm Dita, and this is the stable gun tutorial. Subscribe, and thanks for dropping in.
I don't know why I'm yelling.
