pure skill and superb execution, no pluses from the judges. For those who are still wondering if the red car drift was accidental, it is not. That dog was in the area! A friend of mine whose daughter’s cousin is autistic and literally can spin anything you give him on his finger. It’s pretty cool. The girl in black who did a somersault with her hands after her skateboard failed, impressed me the most, because it was a spontaneous reaction, rather than most things, which is inherent are tricks practiced to perfection.
I love these, I often wonder if it’s the skill, have they tried so many times or just the right place at the right time for the camera? Whatever it is, they are amazing to watch!
I’m trying to figure out why that “illusion” works so well. It’s easy to see when you slow down the video, he does nothing but bring his hand forward into a fist. But for some reason at full speed, it doesn’t look like that at all. Nor when I do it, it looks like an illusion. So is the color of his skin, and how different one of his hands is from the other, and perhaps that somehow deceives the eye. I’m just guessing here. Great little trick regardless.
