Aggressive street ( English aggressive street skating ) - a style of extreme aggressive roller skating in street conditions or a skatepark with the aim of overcoming obstacles in the form of stairs, railings and parapets. Rollers perform a variety of stunts: sliding along the edges and jumping from obstacles.
Tricks
Trick "ao top soul"
All slides on aggressive rollers are divided into two groups:
- royale-tricks - performed on the royale-parts of the rollers - this is a plastic block in the frame (often in the form of a recess) between the second and third wheels
- soul-tricks - performed on the soulplate-part of videos
Trick List
Basic elements:
- Switch - the term applies to tricks that the roller does under the non-leading leg. For example, if the lead leg is right (usually it is the soul grind that is made for the first time by the roller), then when performing the trick, when the left leg glides in the soul position, we can say that this is a switch element.
- Switch-ups - transition from one trick to another while sliding.
- Grab - grab one or both rollers with your hands while flying or sliding.
- Gap - a jump from high altitude or jumping over an obstacle, flight, the gap between the steps.
- Slide - a trick in which in the royale position one or both legs glides.
- Fakie - execution of the departure from the ramp or landing backwards.
- Transfer - jumping from one railing to another or from one radius to another when performing tricks
- Frontside (fs) and Backside (bs) are royale tricks in which the roller skates with its face (fs) or back (bs) to the obstacle, and the rollers are located on the pipe or face parallel to each other.
- Soul - the hind leg rides on the soul (that is, the boot is parallel to the obstacle, and gliding is performed directly on the soulplate), and the front leg is on the fs royale. The basis for many subsequent elements.
- Alley-oop (ao) is a type of slide in which a rider, approaching an obstacle, jumps at him with a 180 degree turn, while twisting goes inwards, to the parapet or rail.
- Topside (top) is a kind of soul-trick in which the soul-foot is carried over an obstacle. If you are driving along a side, then the soulplate will slide along its vertical part, and the frame along the horizontal; in this case, you will have to bend your legs strongly to “lay” this trick. In the case of the railing, everything is somewhat simpler. As mentioned above, you simply transfer the soul-foot to the far side of the rail and ride in that position. Topside tricks are an order of magnitude more complicated and dangerous than ordinary soul elements.
Main elements:
- Torque soul is a soul in which the front foot glides at fs full torque.
- Royale is the same fs or bs, only the knees should be turned in the direction opposite to the direction of movement. If you perform a trick facing a moving surface, then fs will be added to its name, if your back is bs. For example, bs royale.
- Full torque (or Nuegen ) is a royale in which the knees are directed in the direction that matches the direction of movement. If you perform a trick facing a sliding surface, then frontside or just fs will be added to its name, if with your back it will be backside or bs. For example, bs full torque.
- Backslide - the hind leg glides onto the royale, and the front leg does not touch the face or railing (it can be taken in grab).
- Fastslide - a trick similar to a backslide, only in the royale position the front foot is not sliding, but the front foot.
- Sueslide - The front foot slides at full torque, and the rear foot does not touch the obstacle.
- Pudslide - The back foot slides at full torque, and the front foot does not touch the obstacle. Actually a mirror image of sueslide.
- Unity - legs should be crossed, the front foot slides on the fs royale, and the back foot on fs full torque.
- Savannah - ao unity
- Shuffle - tricks that are performed only on parapets or slippery surfaces - it is impossible to do them on 'rails'. The bottom line is that the rider does not slide along the edge of the face (that is, along its 'corner'), but along the surface itself. The most common shuffle elements are royale, full torque, unity
- Miszou - a trick in which the front leg rides on the soul and the back leg is in the bs full torque position
- Sweatstance - top miszou
- Kind grind - ao top miszou
- Mistrial is miszou, only the hind leg glides on the bs royale.
- Makio - gliding is performed on one leg, which rides the soul, for the second you can take 'grab'
- Fishbrain (fish) - top makio
- Pornstar (porn) - the front leg rides soul, and the rear leg fs full torque, that is, turned inward, to the brink
- Sunny day - top porn
- Sidewalk - porn, only your back leg rides on the lacing of the roller.
- Negative - a kind of soul-tricks, when the slide is performed not on the outside of the soulplate, but on the inside.
- Soyale is ao torque soul, which is called soyale.
- Truespin (true) - the same as ao, only the twist goes to the outside, from the obstacle.
- Cab (caballerial) is a fakie 360. The rider rides with his back and jumps onto the slide with a 360-degree turn in any direction. This term is usually used in combination with the names of other tricks, for example, cab kind grind.
- Full cab - the same as cab, only to the obstacle you drive up not with your back, but with your face
- Half cab - drive up to the railing or parapet in fakie and jump on it with a 180-degree turn. If you rotate from the pipe, that is, to the outside, then it will just be half cab or outspin, if to the pipe, to the inside, then it will be inspin.
