Are Switchups Cool?

[skitheeast77]

Do you consider switchups to be a cool trick to watch in edits? I feel like it gets to the point where there's like 50 switchups in every edit and it's like ok I get it, you can change the direction you're sliding.

 

[yunglean2002]

Only as cool as you make them bro

 

[hemlockjibber8]

nope. never were.

 

[Jewschoolers]

i dont see the point when you could just do a lip on blind 2

 

[steeze_louise]

as long as you do them with different combinations and if there are both natural and unnatural.

 

[dustygoldflakes]

I can front and blind 270 out but i can't switch up yet, so I think they are pretty hype haha

 

[yung_deroode]

combine them with tricks

 

[freestyler540]

Switchups are great variants. too many are really ugly tho

 

[seward]

maybe at kinks and shit.

but not like 50 on a flat box.

 

[John18_6]

If you do them to just the tip they are fawkin radical

 

[yungcigsmoker]

Front switch ups are so over done that I really don't care for them.

Fuck yeah switch ups are cool! If anyone tells you they aren't, they are jaded af

 

[dispatchQ_main]

i think they look cool but i don't have fun doing them myself.

You can't really do any other trick because that is the only trick

 

[TheButterHashira]

[Tamas]

Isn't the lip on blind 2 the only rail trick? never heard of a switch up

Yeah guys don't be making threads on tricks that don't exist

 

[casual]

No. Especially front side.

Yeah, I like a disaster/gap to a donkey or something. Not all switchups suck, but a lot of em sure do.

 

[fredyferl]

I don't care if they're cool or not, I have a lot of fun doing switch ups

 

[Mr.noodle]

Before I really got into park I was mind blown when I saw someone do one on a down rail, now I pretty much got them down and they are pretty fun but i get sick of seeg then endlessly in edits

 

[.FRY.]

yes

 

[cheerio]

I don't care if they're cool or not, I have a lot of fun doing switch ups

SWAP KING

 

[SteveStepp]

John Ware doesnt think so...

;(

 

[stinky_cheese]

only if you ride away with afterbang

John Ware can lick my fucking poop hole

 

[John18_6]

Seeing a switchup 270 out on a rail is much more impressive than a straight hit.

granted, I'd much rather see a good tailslide blind 2 (but a good one, not like where the skier pretends to take a shit on the rail)

 

[CrotchKiller]

No, front swaps especially

 

[Pac2]

id say in certain instances yes, but either way they are definitely a good trick to add to your bag of tricks.
