Posted in r/NewSkaters when someone struggles with rock to fakie. Skaters point to the tap, tap rhythm and the 2:13 section on how the move should sound and feel.

“Listen to the rhythm of the rock to fakie at 2:13 in this video. The knock-knock-roll sound. That's the board, the back truck, and then the front truck hitting and rolling to fakie. …”
