Lol, I really liked that, and the chavvy responses you got as well.
There's something very compelling about freestyle in a urban
environment, I love watching it anyway, but freestyle in a skatepark
just seems to work, esp with your hops mixed into it, and the unispin
stuff which you really have down nice now.
EDIT: Looks to be about 4 feet to me, maybe slightly less, 3' 6"-10"
possibly.

That was some really smooth freestyle moves, I agree with Loose about
the urban freestyle thing, it looks good. Espically when you mix it up
with ledges and such, and throw in some huge hopes in between. :)

So for the main part, were you by yourself in the skatepark? I've always
been weary of filming myself in skatepark type places, because I'm
afraid someone might try to steal the camera or something stupid like
that.

of the ramp, that would of been nice =p

I was just going to mention that in fact..

I didn't realize i put spin lol, i meant spine =p
Kinda looks like this _/\_ but much more curved lol. but you came up
onto it, then hopped up onto the top, then the video went to another
shot. When I saw it, I thought you were gonna go and jump over the
other side =p
In your video, its at 42seconds, so if you don't know what im talking
about, just go 42 seconds into your video and watch =p

What setup is the uni with the blue tyre, is it a freestyle or trials?
Seems to take the punishment pretty well.

at the end of the jump video, was that a girl about to say "Oh my god?'
Kinda funny...
Oh, right, the video. Your rolling hops are really amazing, (that's
what I see first, being a trials/street guy) but your freestyle was
probably harder and more crazy. I especially liked the series of
wheelwalks forwards and backwards, it was really clean and cool looking
until you bailed :).
