O yeah???!
you can go verticle on a single fin, but it is considerably easier on a modern shortboard.
I saw a vid of Buttons doing that, and all the shortboard esque manuevers . . .
Nice!
Back when that was to only thing to ride turns like that would make you famous, today, the 12 year old grom from down the street can do them.
Yeah, right!
I think if you could see the sequence you would realize that he is in the first phase of a popoular 70’s maneuver called the “fly away kick out.” I’m not sure that counts as going vertical. That guy out back better watch out!
Happy new year!
is that a single fin longboard?
I don’t think the guys going for a kickout - he posture and where he’s looking indicate otherwise. ( IMHO)
