He's got lots of tweak on the back foot. Looks nice.

his front foot doesnt look locked in at all...

From this angle it doesn't but as the front part of the shoe is the only part touching the rail, it doesn't matter.

This is common in farfs, people somtimes tilt thier front foot more sideways because it is easier for thier leg while in this position

yeah, my farfs i'm pretty proud of, but my royales do that, same with my cab drivers (i've only done a cab driver like, 3 times, and that was yesterday, so it's still really sloppy)

The aim with all farfs, royales etc is to get your feet as torqued as possible. Bending your knees by getting as low as you can definitely helps, plus you get better control by having a lower centre of gravity

Obviously it's impossible to torque your lead foot in a farf as much as your back foot in a royale as you'd stall on the side of the shoe, but this is certainly promising. Really nice rail to hit it on as well dude

nice ass

Does turning your hip a bit help with getting more torque on Royales? It seems to help me out.

The "Civic Center Rail" ...such a classic British description, along with "[insert your favourite supermarket here] rail". Great to see some more brits bringing it up.
