    I remember back when I was like 12-13 or so in 1991-1992 the impossible was the height of skate trick fashion, just before the pressure flip thing came to the east coast. I think it was related to Ed Templeton and the first New Deal video, but that was a long time ago so I don't remember specifics. The Impossible was the holy grail of tricks during that time. My friend Jerry and I were out skating and somehow that became the day that we learned impossibles or got slightly injured trying. Jerry was a couple years older and had gone to the skatepark the weekend before (all parks in the northeast were private pay-to-play things back then) and learned the "secret" from someone there. He had his front foot all the way up on the nose (the board was transitioning from the old school fish shape into the popsicle stick we're all familiar with today) and told me you had to take your front foot off as you popped the tail and kinda tuck/scrape the tail to get it spinning around your back foot. I'm a small human male, especially so before I hit puberty, so I could only comfortably put my front foot hanging way off the side like when I first learned kickflips, flop it off the board, scoop the tail and learn how the trick is supposed to work. The only "trick tips I'd ever see was a page in the back of Thrasher magazine depicting a photo sequence, and I'd never seen a tutorial for a legendary trick like an impossible. It was all trial and error that we knew was doable because we saw it in videos and magazines, with the idea of a "scoop" being the secret of the trick, whatever that was. I think we started in mid afternoon during the summer under an awning next to the supermarket and it took a while to get the feel for the "scooping" motion and even longer to get the board to wrap my foot. After hundreds of tries and my tail starting to show grim signs of left-footed wear, the sun had already set and the light started to fade. Jerry's mom was on her way to pick us up, so we had scant few tries left to get both feet on the board. Somehow I was much closer to the truth than Jerry, despite my "unorthodox" stance and diminutive size. He basically gave up for the day, but I felt like the trick was gonna happen for me. The wrap was a full rotation with complete foot contact, it was just a matter of figuring out my forward momentum so as not to land in front of the board but on it. I know it would have been so dramatic and monumental to land the trick just as Jerry's mom pulled into her parking space, but the truth is that during the 10 minute drive I dwelled on the trick, said my goodbyes and thank yous, and walked down my own crusty, patchy, salty concrete, steeply inclined patch of pavement that led into a main road and thought I should give it a couple more tries. Maybe it was the fact that you could only skate my 15-20' driveway one way and the steep incline helped, but I took one baby push, positioned my feet, scooped the tail and landed it clean. I called Jerry 20 minutes later when I knew he'd be home and he didn't believe me. We skated together two days later and I was landing them 2/3 of the time. A year later, when pressure flips were the rage, the locals called me the wrapmaster because I had impossibles so dialed I could do them over little trash cans and into lipslides on bars. It took me another two years to unlearn the back foot scoop on an impossible and transition into the sideways pressure flip scoop that the trick fell completely out of favor during the initial "clean" era of street skating that came along with the advent of 411 VM and Jeremy Wray's style of big, simple, clean street skating. I haven't been able to do an impossible since 1994. They just do a sideways 360 shove for me now.

      "Clean" street skating. I'm a non-skater, although thinking about picking it up. I'm not sure what clean street skating is. I guess, no freestyle tricks? But, an impossible surely is a trick that can be done in the air onto or off of an obstacle. Anyway, if I get a skateboard, this is going to be the third or fourth trick I learn. I love it.

      @delbomb3131 7 лет назад +16

      depends on how much you wrap the board around your foot. you can def do it horizontally, but it's going to be more obvious and cleaner vertically. I agree it's way to thin of a line sometimes on what's counted. At the end of the day though if it looks cool who the fuck really cares what the trick is? Just go out and have fun landing sick looking shit. Being pedantic ruins skating.

    Hey dude, I just wanna say these videos are awesome.
    I like your fairly high-standard approach to technique and style, and you've helped me do a lot of 'cleaning up' tricks, which I've been wanting to do for a long time. You're almost oddly well-spoken, explaining the fine detail in movement and foot positioning and the effects they have, and when you once spoke about the tension you're supposed to feel doing a flip trick (I believe it was the 360 flip video) something immediately clicked in my brain, and I'm suddenly way more consistent at them.
    Anyway, thanks a lot, and keep doing what you're doing mate.

    This was my Summer '91 OBSESSION, I never mastered it but all my friends did and I've always regretted it, I'm 41 now and arthritic so... it will never happen. Yeah, I always pressure scooped it sideways and it looked more like a frontside 360 shovit (they were later named "pop" shovits. We held outer front foot almost off the side of the board, so we could slide it off immediately. We were popping the tail and popping them higher because of the New Deal video -Templeton was doing Impossibles on benches and over huge gaps and down stairs, and the lower pressure-style variants was only good for flat ground. Anyway, love you Giger!!

    I tried this at a session for the first time and Im not a great skater I can't kick flip. But if you know the movement it's surprisingly easy. I almost landed it but i also sprained my ankle landing on the side of the board.
