The line of sight in BS 50-50 in skateboarding and science behind it

Спорт

You can view 3D models from here:

The line of sight determines where you lock in in grind tricks in skateboarding including backside 50-50s. In this video, we will analyze its impact in detail using 3d models and based on scientific reasons.
Please take a moment and try to study this in detail.
I'm trying to eliminate subjectivity from my explanation as much as possible by referring to scientific and physics theories. Please use my 3D models to solve your "why."

Traditionally, skateboarding how-to videos have always been subjective and the majority of explanations are based on speakers' experiences.
To avoid relying on my personal experiences, please fully utilize the 3D models.
All skaters have different questions.
So that you can analyze skateboarding tricks in detail and solve your "whys," those 3D models are made fully interactive.
The 3D models feature these functions below:
- change camera angle
- adjust play speed
- change transparency
- display gridlines, etc.
Aside from that, I try to explain concepts of skateboarding tricks based on facts, calculations, scientific and physics theories. I may make mistakes so please leave a comment if you find anything.

    Although I think the line of sight IS super important for learning and improving your back 50-50, I think the main reason backside axle stalls on ledges are easier is because when you come in at a steeper angle you essentially have to do a backside 180, which is much more intuitive than ollying BEHIND yourself to a ledge nearly parallel to your body (which is what you need to do to learn a true back 50). This is a great video and super helpful, just wanted to add my 2 cents.

    Related to this, investigating line of sight in miniramp or especially vert skating could be incredibly useful. Just recently realized how much this affects f.ex. bs slashes in vert.

    This is amazing! I can’t wait to try some bs 50-50s now. This line of sight idea makes so much sense. For this trick, if I get locked in, I can usually grind the ledge just fine. But locking in is the hard part. FS 50-50s are the opposite. They’re easy to lock in but harder to maintain, at least for me. Thanks for these videos.

    for me approaching 50-50 at bigger angles makes it easier to transform extra linear momentum into angular momentum, thus I grind with more control. If I approach too parallel to the ledge or rail, I somtimes miss calculate my momentum and when I grind I go to fast and lost balance

    Approaching the ledge at a 15-20° angle it is important to apply pressure with your backfoot then shifting weight and focus on to your front foot. Subconsciously your body will align it self on to the ledge.
