could be a lot cleaner. need to pull ur pants down a little more and look like a badass. stick to front 2s until you have at least a little bit of swag.

I don't bust the front or back 6 often but when I do front I just think of a 540. idk if im just weird but try both ways sometimes if you grind right foot forward and spin left try left foot forward or spinning right if that makes sense.

Not sure if you’re aware or not but aof people on this site CAN’T front 6, nor have ever done one, myself included.

Yeah and to strengthen that point, you are absolutely disgusting at rails.


I relate, the front 6 is the one that got away… tried to learn it junior year of highschool, got to 540 and kept dying everytime. Tried again my freshman year of college with more of the same. Still haven’t given the front 6 another go, it will forever elude me.

but yeah there definitely isn’t many ns members who have them on lock (very farm from the majority at least)

just to be clear, I've only ever done a couple of front 6s and they were pretty trash ngl. That being said, OP it looks like you did the trick correctly but landed a tiny bit short on the rotation. I'd just say keep doing them and they'll get better, same with pretty much any trick
