the only handplant my grandma does is when she falls down the stairs and reaches out to stop herself. That of course breaks her wrist, and then once she is at the bottom her hip is broken too. Kind of a bummer.
since its getting played out everyone should stop doing them. then once that happens they wontbe played out anymore so everyone can start donig them again.
until they get to the point were everyones doing them.
Who the fuck cares if they are creative or not? They're fun, so people like to do them. Personally, I think they are pretty creative, especially since there's so many options with handplants and handrags (off of stumps, logs, rollers, pillow-type things, garbage cans, ect.)
I hate when people call hand DRAGS hand PLANTS. When you have your hand stopped, like at the top of the pipe, its a hand plant, becasue you plant your hand. When you do it at speed over a roller/knuckle/rail/boc/etc it is a hand drag, because your hand is dragging across the ground.
I tape the xgames and buy every video that comes out and I have a rubrik of every trick in skiing and if anyone does one of them I stop doing it cause I am all about progressing the sport and I dont ever do anything that isnt amazingly origional so yeah
I have like 40 tricks no one knows about I just dont tell them so they dont get played out.
fuck avoiding those played handplants, life's played, it seems like everyone and their dog is living, personally I might just decide to not live anymore, although being dead is pretty played too so I dunno.
