  • Sequence shots for the 360 Casper Disaster, performed by Rodney Mullen and the Roccoco, performed by Per Welinder.
    "Rodney Mullen and Swedish counterpart Per Welinder demonstrate that one does not have to be restricted by lack of skating surface. Rodney shows off some delicate rail work, pulling off a 360 degree Casper Disaster, while Per, Sweden's number one freestyle champion, gets involved in a maneuver called the spinning Roccoco. A trick which requires quick hand and feet action while rotating one full revolution on the tail of the board. Study these tricks for a while and you can't help but go out and try them for yourself."

  • "Throw Your Own Contest" by K. Thatcher
    "Test your skating skills and that of your friends by promoting a skateboard contest...A freestyle contest is probably your best bet, requires nothing more than a flat cement area..."
