Why skaters like it
Skaters link it as a contender for greatest vert run ever, and many remember watching it live and freaking out.
“motherfucker catches a kickflip indy halfway through rotation and just forces the landing. Then just finishes the run almost all switch like it aint a thang.”

What skaters said on Reddit
God I remember FREAKING out when this shit happened live [VIDEO] motherfucker catches a kickflip indy halfway through rotation and just forces the landing. Then just finishes the run almost all switch like it aint a thang.
That flip in is nasty, dude. Solid. Somewhat related note, 11 year old me saw Bob Burnquist finish what I still believe may be the greatest vert run ever (X games 2001) with a blunt kickflip out. Every time I see one of these I immediately think of that. Here's a link in case you wanna witness the epicness: [VIDEO]

Not street but here's what's possible in a competitive environment on vert which isn't in the olympics yet: shaun white: [VIDEO] bob burnquist: [VIDEO]
