how to roll a blunt like the ghetto does

Saturday, March 25th, 2006

Here’s one of my personal gangsta tricks called frontside bluntslide. At first it felt like almost impossible for me. It took me like 9 years or so to get this trick nailed.

It’s a real easy trick once you get to understand the feeling when u got this trick on lock and slide. just read and do the following:

1. Practice just ollying into a frontside blunt-stall on a parking block, or on a small staircase step, or on a piece of timber to begin. this helps you become understand and more comfortable with the body movements of the trick. To understand this trick easily, master the art of fronside boardslide, frontside 5-0 and salad grind.

2. Roll toward the object as if you were going to do a frontside grind. On this stage, you should be understand that you might fall hard on your ass for the first time. but it’s cool. 

3.Ollie slightly higher than the obstacle and set your rear wheels down on top of it as you come down. Lock the wheels in sliding position by slapping the tail close with the curb.

4. Keep the underside of your tail pressed against the outside of the obstacle (like a wheelie position, but with the wheels on top and the tail below the edge of the curb). IF you’re on this stage, you are a half way badass gangsta now.

5. Lean back enough to lighten yourself, but not so much that you shoot the board out in front of you. Your center of gravity should be comfortably over the rear truck area. the faster you go, the easier the trick will be.

6. Keep your shoulders facing the way you want to go, so when it is time to pop out, all you have to do is give a small ollie motion and catch your hips up with your shoulders. You wanna get better imagination and view right? observe and focus on rob welsh, ryan gallant, march johnson (uhh badass skater), or mohamad amin shamsudin aka chocolate. heaaheahea.

7. Land it smooth and have a clean ride. Ever wondered why ghostface meant when he said “this rap is like ziti”? Ok it’s like this, just get to a nearest skatepark/ghetto/park/legendary curb, roll a blunt effortlessly like brian wenning and then roll away. Let em know and wonder what’s your madhot steez is all about!
