| What changes have you guys ever made to your style? I went back to untucked fungers, cuz' it feels more natural and comfortable, and nollie/siwtch flip tricks are easier for me too. I think it went from: untucked and flat, to tucked and flat, and finally back to untucked and flat Edit:Woah, I'm at 1000 posts now |

| Untucked is when u fb with four finger showing, tucked is when you have your 2 fingers on the board and the other two tucked in..
example: Kerry untucked (Awesome) and any other fber more or less tucked, i think Mike Schneider is tucked! |

| for me it all really depends on what i'm doing or whats more consistent when im fingerboarding. i guess you can say that I am comfortable either way. i do concentrate more to tucking when recording though i don't know why. the down side is it hurts on tricks that are easier for me when I'm untucked. (Ryan following the masses, I guess) |

| Lol.
Originally I did a small amount of tricks 3-fingered, like shove-its. I did other tricks 2-fingered so I have no idea why I did that. Also, my first kickflip based tricks were all pressure flips and I later learned to do the normal ones. I still love pressure flips though. My only latest change is concentrating on doing better roll-aways. |

| flat and untucked. When I watch videos I don't even notice the difference to be honest.
Even if I wanted to change, I think it is a little late after fingerboarding for so long. |

| when i ride regs, my fingers feel more comfortable in a slightly tucked in position. but it switch i have them higher than the other 2 fingers. so kinda the opposite of tucked. |

| really dont think it matters that much to actually change it, i just do what feels most comfortable when i pop a trick my fingers are not trucked under but when i land it they are, i dont try to do this or change it, it just feels right and happens on its own. when i do stuff nollie there always tucked cant help it just happens |
