Casper's were the first trick I ever tried to learn back in the day when Aaron (now rad rat video) was one of the most prominent skate youtubers in 2008

Got my board yesterday mike. Thanks man its freaken beautiful. I'm already landing caspers. Just learning to get to rail.

Love the new video format and editing, looks great. Thanks for the tips

This trick is literally what made me fall in love with skateboarding when I used to play the video game back in the day and I even loved your history video about tricks and Rocky Mueller. lol

You are criminally under subscribed you've been putting out great content for years and I just found you! Better late than never! cheers much love from Michigan

When I was trying my caspers I was having a lot of time dismounting them this really helped

Found you in the braille channel I like that channel but I am into freestyle so super happy I found your channel it’s way more dedicated to freestyle skateboarding.

Best casper video ever. You are a legend my friend

So glad I found your channel.

Thank you so much! I'm the exact target of this video (got them with both feet on the ground just 2 days ago) and this is so helpful!!!

Now i just need to figure out how to practice these without bruising the top of my foot.

Plus I just love mike

First of all, youre sick and I like your style and comfort on the board. Second of all here I am lugging a street board around dabbling in freestyle tricks. I need one of those sweet tiny boards so bad. Just a simple casper to casper seems daunting. If the tip of the board lands on my toe it game over.

Great tutorial 👍🏻🔥

Fresh mike

There were a lot of things I did wrong. for one thing, I always thought my feet had to be symmetrical with the board. Like my entire front foot had to be tucked in perfectly & strictly in the middle, + my backfoot had to line up vertical with the tail. I think I had incorrect angles in general, like how much/where you lean with your body/shoulders, etc. but I think my main issue was relying on one foot. I focus on the scoop of the backfoot only. this is why I'm more likely to land the "fake casper" with both feet on the ground like a Tre but can't like a shuv. When I try a switch casper I don't even really use my backfoot at all and I think this is because when switch, my frontfoot = the same backfoot i rely on when regular. I'll probably end up rewatching this video multiple times. thanks

Nice Shoe Commercial

My Caspers are improving thanks to this video! I’m getting used to my front foot not touching the ground, but is it okay if my back heel touches the ground? Or should the goal be to get my entire back foot on the tail?

I'm goofy footed and use my front foot to scoop. I can do it fine but for a single kick I have to do a shuv or something to put it into position. (Edit) I do railstands backwards too

I can flop to casper and impossible out maybe 2 out of 10 tries, but it really hurts the top of my feet on those fail attempts and is hard to get the balance right. Is the feet hurting a technique problem or is that normal and will go away when I get better at softly catching and balancing? I almost feel like I need puffier shoes or reinforced toes cuz my suede half cabs aren't cutting it

is it ok to do this trick with a streetboard? or is it just better overall to buy a free style skateboard?

Informative video. Please do one on no-hands 50/50. This is a basic trick, but for some reason it continues to elude me. Also, most importantly: what brand of pants are those?

@@JaceMcIntyre yeah I can land them but not consistently. I don't know how to drop into casper from railstand yet tho

Already got these down, I can only do them fakie and switch

My toes hurt a lot after trying caspers Do your toes feel like they are on fire too?

the X arms motion lmao crouching to get in the camera unintentional gangster stances or it's the natural swag or both.

Do you have any tips for going casper to rail, or landing in rail in general because I also really want to learn a rail flip that goes back into rail and I'm having troubles?

@mike_osterman1

Yeah! Our buddy Jacob has been working on those a lot. Besides riding freestyle wheels, I’d recommend playing with the position of your “top foot”, angling your toes inward. I can help more if I see a clip of your attempts

Mike Osterman Thank you that simple adjustment really helped because my foot would slip off to the side a lot when i was trying to land in rail

Are nose caspers / anti-caspers a thing? I can do one while rolling and that momentum rolling forward helps to get a good flip back to the grip. Ive just never seen anyone else do it before.

@mike_osterman1

Hey, that’s definitely a way to do it! I learned them Fakie and on the tail but I know a lot of people who Casper on their noses. From what I understand, an anti-Casper is actually an Ollie-1/2 impossible to nose Casper 💪 everything else (whether on the nose or tail) is just a Casper

How goos do these boards work in the park and pool?

@mike_osterman1

3 жыл бұрын

Freestyle boards are usually a bit smaller than your average pool board. They’re also a bit tighter. Both tend to make them less useful in pools

Feels so hard to balance with the front foot off of the ground, looks way easier.

You can also pop into casper.
