Have these been done?

A tuck knee shuvit. I wanna try these when I can get regular ones down but have these been done, I've never seen them done but j/w. If you dont know what they are there a shuvit from a crouching position. Or like prone if you get me. Well I give a link to a vid if any one wants to see it.

Fredrick_Eisenhauer, I'm pretty sure that no one has done that yet. It, like everything else, is possible on a wakeskate, but the problem is when your legs, knees, w/e touches the water, it could cause you to fall. thats my theory anyway, i've never tried one.

che blanc, you've talked my into it, IMO its not my best but it will give you a good idea. Laughing

Chris41, I dunno if you feet etc. would touch the water because when I try to do them on my skateboard I feet all my feet etc. on.

I dont really care if some one steals it (well I do) but there probably going to be done soon enough in the first place anyways but hopefully I can nail them first as a trick I can do. I can do them on a skateboard easy enough but on a wakeskate well thats a different matter.

how would u do the nollie part?

ckidinot, who said it has to be nollie or fakie? Its only done this way in the vid because its easier not because it has to be done that way. ANyway even if it has to be nollie I can just slide it along the surface, thats one of the reasons they call it a shhuvit because you can literally just do that... shuvit. Probably harder on a skate though.

I tried this the other day, getting into position is pretty easy but I found my back foot kept sliding all over the show with most of weight on knee.

Didnt get very far, couldnt get enough shove with back foot

Yeah I've tried a few aswell. I got half way through the shuvit but yeah I couldnt g et my back foot to start it very well. There harder then they look.

ya i tried one on my skateboard and i did but not a 360 shuv it.

Yeah they look pretty damn easy. But then once I tried them I was like "Whoa these are hard", but about half hour later I had them but I dont like them because I hafta crouch down and get back up and im slack. Razz
