Shane O'Neill Wants To Know Which of These Lines Was The Best? (They All Look The Same)
I love when pro skaters post videos like this. With a simple caption that reads, "1, 2, or 3 ?" Shane O'Neill posted three different versions of this flawless line, and it's almost like one of those games where you're staring at similar pictures, trying to figure out how and why they're different.
Sometimes it's fun to dissect tricks like this, especially when a skateboarder as talented as Shane is under the microscope. Honestly, I can't choose just one. They're all incredible. I'm still obsessing over figuring out what makes them different!
Nollie 360 flip up, 360 flip on the ledge (I really like that for some reason), to nollie back heel back into the bank. Wild! Look closely at the second and third one. His foot placement is seriously so insane to me. He hardly has to move his feet between each trick! Especially on the 360 flip in the middle—his back foot honestly hardly moves a centimeter.
Shane's skating is next level because his approach to skating is next level, just in general. We all sit and watch these clips thinking, "Oh my god...perfect!" Meanwhile, he's probably dissecting each trick and each clip in his own way, finding invisible flaws that only he can see, like a respected artist tearing apart a masterpiece—he's his own biggest critic.
Motivation comes in all shapes and sizes. It has to be hard to be better when you're already one of the best, but here we are.
I was going to try and end this by saying, Okay...here's my favorite. But I honestly can't. Therefore I won't. Put me down for all three!
