Talk:Impossible (skateboarding trick)

I wrote this article under the name 'ollie impossible' a year ago. Please see that one... Can someone redirect this link to that page? I don't really know how to do much more than simple edits and internal linking. In any case, this article 'skateboarding trick, impossible' should be deleted. It is factually inaccurate, bordering on idiotic...the skateboarding pages are already bad enough... Thank you!
 * Would you care to pinpoint the inaccuracies? The above statement is just a useless rant. For info on redirects, type "redirect" in the search box on the left. Tp 05:57, 6 August 2005 (UTC)


 * The "Ollie Impossible" does have a better title. There were no links to it in the "Skateboarding trick" page when I wrote this article so I didn't find it. Should have searched better. I'll replace this page with a redirect and continue this discussion on the other page.

Hi TP. First: ollie impossible "is an aerial skateboarding trick in which the skateboard makes a complete backflip". An Ollie Impossible is not an aerial trick... The board wraps around the skaters leg during the scooping motion... really, there is only a slight ollie motion involved in the trick... I've seen people go down stairs with these, but you're not going to clear a garbage can with an impossible unless you go off a kicker ramp. Characterizing it as 'aerial' is just confusing...especially for people who don't skate. Now the backflip comment... BACKFLIP? Comon man, have you ever read a trick tip that says 'your board will complete a backflip'? No. Get rid of the aerial and backflip part and rewrite the article if you'd like people to understand it. Again... this is a confusing article that only an experienced rider could decipher. Thanks. --Phil
