A Pogo is a very popular trick and is a staple of freestyle skateboarding. You first get into a 50/50 truckstand by grabbing the nose and placing one foot on the bottom truck, with the other foot hanging off, and then you hop like on a pogo stick. This can also be performed with both feet on the truck, or with the feet crossed. Per Canguru often performs a double-foot pogo at the end of his runs for a crowd-pleaser. This trick was invented by skating legend, Kyle Jensen.
