Longboarding: Propeller.

Video from Loaded Longboards on YouTube

I bet you want to see cool tricks on a longboard. I bet your looking for dope music to longboard to. Wanna start spinning? Doin your tiger claw? Get some bounce on your board? Hell yes you do. That’s what longboardings all about. You start off, you have fun and then you just want to start doing it more and more. Pretty soon, you’re selling your house for 10 new longboards that you cant even ride, unless you stack them together and do it like a London bus. I don’t have a Loaded Longboard but I sure as sugar (lol, trying to keep the language kid appropriate) want to get one ASAP. It’s fall over here in Michigan, which to me, means MORE longboarding. Everything looks so beautiful and I want to hit the slopes (for freeee, because its a Longboard remember! :) )

Live vicariously through his sick boarding spots, or get out there and bomb some hills and master your skate tricks.

I recently had the opportunity to go to California and hang out with everyone at the Loaded office and some other fun people. Big thanks to Don and everyone at Loaded; it was a super awesome time. While I was there, Adam C. filmed a little video of me ridding the Tan Tien called Propeller; thanks again to Don for the name. We pretty much just skated around the Venice Beach area looking for things to mess around with and tried to avoid backpack-eating dragons who eventually caught up to us. It’s just a fun little video playing with the surroundings. Adam C. did an amazing job with the filming, lots of depth of field and some smooth camera movements. Big thanks to Adam C. for filming, editing, and letting a smelly Virginian sleep on his floor with a sweatshirt stuffed in a bag for a pillow. I got to go make sure my potatoes aren’t boiling over. Catch y’all next time.

How to Do a Tiger Claw on a Longboard

This guide is designed to showcase how to do a Tiger Claw or Flat Top on a Longboard for a regular stance, so if you ride goofy like me you would have to do everything the opposite way.

  • Begin by standing with your main foot under the screws, towards the middle of your board and your back foot on the tail.
  • Get your front foot of the board and the weight of your back foot on the tail will make the boards front flip up.
  • Rotate your back foot to the left as the boards kicking up so the board pops to the right not straight up.
  • Using your right hand, take hold of the front left edge of your board while you take a step forward with your back foot. (Your front foot is still on the ground)
  • As the boards in the middle of its rotation, your right hand guides the rest of the 180 while you jump in the air with your back foot.
  • Line up the board as you finish the revolution and jump on it!

Once your able to pop the board almost to a full 180 using your hang only to track it around, you can move on to a pressure flip. A pressure flip is the same but you kick out the 180 without using your hand and only take one step.
