definitely NOT a hippie killer you ignorant bastards. Ive been trying to do these a lot lately and people call it all different things. Andy Perry does a similar one called the blind sole (rollerblading name), but i dip my back ski more and its easier to get 270 out, i like to call it the KIrkle Dain.

ya i think i remember watching the vid on the blind sole but i belive he brought his skis parale to eachother and he was sliding on the two inner edges... but i watched that vid awhile ago, and i was confused by it while i was watching it so i could be wrong

pretty sure it's called a "bind sole" not blind, but anyway thats what it's called when you are like standing up and when you are crouched down it's a beowolf (however that's spelled)...

I call it a FRACTURE cause it's just a way more intense broken grind. Very fun trick.

i have been calling it a beowulf, but i think he calls it acid soul or something. not sure who did it first but it was two years ago i first started to do them, and then saw this picture later in the year. there is a big diffrence with bindsouls, beowulfs, and grendels but then agian no one cares all that much so it dosent matter.
