Learn How to Do Ricky Glaser’s Signature Trick With This Video

Krux may call their how-to video series Stupid Trick Tips, but that’s probably a reference to David Letterman more than anything. The tutorial videos actually do a solid job of laying out how to do these tricks. Sure, maybe it will take a lot of effort. You will most definitely screw up a few times. And yet, you could genuinely add a trick to your repertoire by watching Stupid Trick Tips in action. This week, Australian skater Ricky Glaser is the one with the instruction manual on how to do one of his signature tricks.

The trick in question is the tailslide-grip-rip-flip to fakie. That’s a mouthful, and that right there might be daunting. Don’t fret, though. You can at least give the video a watch. Maybe you won’t learn how to nail the tailslide-grip-rip-flip to fakie, but it’s still cool to see in action, and Glaser does a good job explaining it. And if you do learn how to do the trick then, well, won’t you be glad you gave these “stupid” tips a shot? Check it out above.
