How many people here can do the octo grab?

[pistolpete23]

i was at this comp this weekend never seen anyone but gagnier pull it. then i saw some kids doing it ? i find it ridiculously hard how bout you?

 

[wdbo.]

[garrett.]

most kids dont have rubber suplimented into their ankles

 

[BigJew]

I can't even do it on lying on my back. I remember when we first saw the truckdriver and thought that nobody could do it... and now everyone can.

 

[akerbacker]

i cant do the octo grab, BUT i can do the hexa grab, and the penta grab, they are way better

 

[wdbo.]

it's a lot less about the ankles and more about the knees

 

[IHOP]

Tom Walisch(SP) either does or comes really close to doing one in the new promo, although I can't tell if it is intentional or unintentional.

 

[bryceCTS]

[fouldsys]

i find them really easy. the key is to get the nose part of the grab first.

 

[steevner]

i can do them, just straight airs so far, and they are no where near as tweaked as gagniers

 

[skithedirt]

[bpalmer]

[asfffffffffdd]

they're not that hard once you get the hang, but they still throw me a little off axis so.......

 

[ride_on]
