i actually found kickturn variations with a coaster very easy bitd.......  i don't know why, but i seemed to pull most variations on the 2nd or 3rd try.  if only everything came to me that easily.... especially nowdays...  :'(

Neil Ruffell never rode that way! So it's the wrong way! End of...........

By the way, yes I do "air" the wrong direction.... The proper way is to the left....

I didn't say i air to the left.  I said i air in the wrong direction. the proper way is to the left.

[By the way, yes I do "air" the wrong direction.... The proper way is to the left....

don't care what the others do.  craig c, carlo, pepi they all aired to the left.

You're both wrong, the right way to air is in both directions. ;)

But do you switch the cranks around too ?
Title: Re: ronnie wilton
Post by: trill on December 30, 2006, 05:48 PM
the proper way 2 air is at least 10ft plus either direction.
Title: Re: ronnie wilton
Post by: Geth on December 30, 2006, 05:53 PM
"Goofy" to me is -

Airing to the left with left foot forward

or

Airing to the right with right foot forward


To put another way -  whichever way you air with the leading foot down.


Some good company air "goofy"

Ryan Nyquist & Jamie Bestwick (although with Jamie its hard to tell which way he rides!)
& Billy Stupple

I do switch my cranks, left foot forward airing right and right foot forward airing left, but at times when I didn't switch my cranks I ended up airing goofy just as geth explained it.  Ron Wilton did rule the wedge ramps.

I always had to ride up a ramp "goofy" to get the coaster in to do a "wilton"

i actually kickturn the opposite direction to airing. so on a trick ramp i was goofy footed, but with a coaster that was a bonus.
