Short, focused walkthrough of a foot plant trick for mini ramps. Dylan Harreld shared it in r/NewSkaters and r/skateboarding threads on how to Jim Jam.
“Hazard - a kind of layback Japan fastplant thing done backside on a bank, etc. Grab the board mute and take the back foot off while also placing back hand on the ground. Tweaked like a Japan. Bring it around 180 and roll away. …”

Hazard - a kind of layback Japan fastplant thing done backside on a bank, etc. Grab the board mute and take the back foot off while also placing back hand on the ground. Tweaked like a Japan. Bring it around 180 and roll away. There was a trick tip in an old issue of Thrasher for this trick. Not sure who invented it, but Tommy Guerrero popularized it a bit. Knee-on - An invert where one foot is taken off and the knee touches the board instead. I only remember these being done by Ken Park. Phillips 33 - Invented by Jeff Phillips. It's just half of a Phillips 66 (which is a pretty rare trick itself). A Phillips 66 [LINK] is a weird one and best explained in the link. I've never seen footage or even a photo of a Phillips 33. Good Buddy [LINK] - basically a fakie eggplant. Go up fakie, grab with your back hand, plant with your front hand in front of you, do your best to lift your board (I've never seen anyone be able to turn it into an actual invert), go back down forward. BONUS RARE TRICKS Jim Jam [VIDEO] - backside sweeper invented by Jim Gray Ha Ha plant - similar to a Ho Ho (invert to handstand to eggplant in - grabbing hand is switched from front to back hand), but it is an invert…
