So I have been boarding for a while now and have accumulated a small bag of tricks along the way. One thing that has always driven me nut is how unflexible I am. I am a pretty athletic guy and grew up playing sports and such, but I've just never been flexible. I can't even stand and touch my toes. The reason it bothers me so much is because it seems to making grabbing my board extremely difficult while throwing tricks. I just feel like it take so much just to reach down and do a freakin w2w indy grab. Its like my legs are working against me. I'm 5'8" and around 168 pounds so I'm not morbidly obese or anything... I just hate the fact that it's so difficult for me to add some additional style to my riding. Anyone else feel the same? What can I do?
