Let me get this straight? People are doing w2w varial flips, or did i read this thread wrong? Personally I dont believe it till i see it because w2w kickflips are even rare as it is

k enough with the w2w varial flip talk. you all dont make sense so back to hampson. i just watched the sfumato teaser and all the kickflips in it are sketch. I didn't see one that stood out like "skateboard style" flip. I have yet to see a legit kickflip. I think to make this possible (sliding you foot off the nose) to make a perfect flip, board designs have to be altered and the boards have to be made smaller and in the shaoe of skateboard decks ( rounded nose and tail ) and lots of concave. I also think that companys need to find a way to may the boards sit higher off the water, i think that would give you more pop. Just a thought

to make a board small is going to make it sit lower in the water becuase of less surface area so theres no good way to make a smaller board that sits higher in the water. atleast none that i can think of right now but well see what happens in the next few years with shapes
