So, we go riding a couple weeks ago, and I do an Elephant. Riley: Dude, you should grab your Elephant!! Your hand's right there! Grab that puppy on the way down! Me: Oh really. Riley: Yeah! It looks sick when grabs are done on the way down!! I'll take a pic next time to show you where your hand is! (Riley always yells) Tuesday - I waste a bunch of falls working on getting back my missing Toe 3, so much for balling out and trying a 5. Irritated, I just start taking big cuts and blasting(for me anyways) for funsies. Then I think....I'm going to grab my elephant. Uh-huh! I leave the wake and reach down like my thousands of attempts at grabbing a front roll (all unsuccessful mutes). Oh....MY. It whipped me around so fast I almost slapped my face. The look on Riley's face said it all as I drop the handle like a sissy. Riley: Stall it out at the top so you don't whip so fast!!! Me: Ok dude. So ALL you want me to do is take the biggest cut I can, stomp on my back foot, and stall the trick halfway through while I grab? Riley: YEAH!! Me: OK arshole. I'll post the video later. lol
