Post by: Vic on October 09, 2006, 11:28:20 PM
Where can I find a video of this trick? Does it have a name? The pic is hosted here at global, but I can't find anything on it:

It's a variation of the pedal steamroller, like his holding the peg instead of the bars I'd call it ... damn.
It's simply that, learn pedal steamroller and start working on that variation lol

But this is kind of a situation i've been thru, i mean, we can get vids for most basic tricks but when it comes to variations we only have the pros doing them fast as hell or amateurs videos that don't really help much.

how do flatlanders draw the line between a variation and a new trick? wheelchair glide, elephant glide and halfpackers all look so similar, just by letting go of something or holding somewhere else it's a whole new trick. But this steamroller variation has no hands on the bar. If those other tricks can get their own names for small changes like that, I think this trick deserves to be more than just a variation.

Thats just one thing I've always wondered about the flatland world, since day one.

well it's not a variation of a steamroller... it's a variation of a pedal steamroller.
