@@nedtempleton4873 vouch, we always called a hardflip back180 a ghetto bird also what kareem does in the clip at the beginning is a fakie hardflip front 180 revert, not a backside revert

Kareems ghetto bird has always been one of my all time favorite looking tricks but damn seeing Giger struggle so much with just understanding it really gives me even more appreciation for what a master Kareem was and how ahead of his time that trick really was.

Frame at a time can see he's only about 90 degrees around when the back wheels touch the ground, but I agree that he's initiating in the air, while Giger is doing it on the ground. Close, but not the same trick.

cool trick, also can we talk about how clean Daro was in his few clips...sheesh

I wanna see Giger try and get that late back 180 all in the air like Kareem does. That’d be sick!

Gotta love the baggy jeans. Man i miss the ones Boom used to make, they were massively baggy. God like skill as always.

You rock, Jonny! Your country is beautiful! I can’t wait to visit someday!

I love that Johnny shows the Trials and Tribulations of learning new tricks. It never goes away, that dirty learning curve. I see so many kids at the park just want instant gratification when they jump on a board. They see all these youtubers just showing the "Glammer Moments" of skateboarding. Makes it seem like everytime you touch a board and it's just Magic Happening Everywhere lol. Not the case. Even at Johnny's Level (Pro+) he still has trouble getting it right. Mind you, with his skill set he will get it 1000x faster then someone that is new to skateboarding, but still, he is in the trenches learning with the rest of us. He shows that part of his day and it is nice to see. "The Process", it's the same for all levels of Skaters and it cannot be ignored... The Process WILL make or break you ☠🤟 ALWAYS CLEAN YOUR PARK CLEAN... get ya ass kicked around here for that littering bullshit.

Thanks for this video! I've gotten into a few discussions on youtube re: ghetto birds. The way i understand ghetto birds is that the revert is in the same direction as the horizontal part of the hardflip. What is popularly known as a ghetto bird, to the best of my knowledge, is actually called a chetty thomas.

I have so much love for this guy. Big bromance for sure. Keep it going buddy. Your awesome. Love the videos.

I would call the hard flip back 180 "modern ghetto bird"

I remember watching Kareem do it in the World part of the Mullen vs. Song video back in the day, and it always looked a certain way because he would cross, uncross, and then what looks like recrossing (when the revert begins) his legs like that before he landed. All that crisscrossing is what makes it an authentic Ghetto Bird.

I remember first seeing one of these in 97/98 where someone rolled up fakie on a steep bank and did a fakie hard flip full late bake side 180 (the opposite spin as Kareem’s) and road away funny enough in a very fakie foot position. The cool thing was the company, which I don’t remember which one (maybe spitfire), who’s add it was was offering an amateur sponsorship. Someone did it within two or three months and they announced the winner. I was in love with these and spent about a year learning them over pyramid hips in probably 1999 or 2000 and I eventually did a nollie hard flip late backside 180 over the Everett, WA skatepark hip on Casino rd in probably 2002. It was the only one I ever landed and took about 5000 tries LOL

bro what the most famous clip he does it over a huge ass hip in europe in like 98 that is not the only footage

Steeper bank offers stronger resistance and therefore a faster pop. Yes, you are right. You might get it in a mellow quarterpipe or steeper bank.
