Charles gagnier throw so many octo grabs he might just grow tentacles

ya but its the same with jon. but if that is wat it takes to win, they should probally keep it up till someone comes out with something better.

yes, i agree.  but when you are one who CAN do them better than the rest, and know it could be a strong point in comps (such as X), you work on that for a while having it be your solid trick and have it be better than the rest.

it sorta is similar to Jon and kang flips.  he is better than the rest at them, so he works on them alot and does them tons because it his strong point.  he is able to do it in comps and succeed (big air).

yea it would be nice to see them do tons of more tricks and shit, but i can totally see why he is focusing on the octos.

It's a contest trick. Tanner Hall heard the same crap when he use to throw switch rodeo 7s all the time. You're competing for money and that's your livelihood. You're going to throw what you know you can stomp and've practiced 100 times over.

thats like telling Pk to stop throwing nose mutes, Charles is more comfortable with that grab than anyone.

until someone else can spin a switch 10 with an tweaked octo, he should milk it for all its worth.

charles has a mad bag of grabs and he never misses them, as said above, the octograb is nuts and he will always throw it in competitions.

i read an interview with him and he said something about throwing something new in the big air, i was not very stoked on another sw10...

Charles got the best variaty of grabs, just look at the x-games slopestyle tomorow, your goanna see that PK, Andreas and Sammy are all doing 3 mute grabs in their runs.

haha name was funny. but yeah. no one can grab like charles except for maybe tj.
