Dec 9, 2006 SonicSoaper

Look at your left hand! It's looks like it's all distorted! Nice Royale!

Dec 9, 2006 Slidey

Perfect Style, This has inspired me to get proper good and take picz of more technical grinds.
Props to Antho

Dec 9, 2006 snikas

nice

Dec 9, 2006 Go2Crew

Derek, props on putting that up so quick. Amazing what you can do with a pair of Septums and some sweet looking yellow BBKs. Ren, love the bucket hat, I haven't seen one of those in years! And great styling on the grind, too.

Dec 9, 2006 AnthoFlex

Thanx :) I do love that hat, i wear it to school almost everyday.....My friends and teachers always say, "are you going fishing" and i reply, "if your definition of fishing is soaping, then yea"

Oh steve, rememeber that Sonic pin you gave me? i put it on the hat lol :p

Dec 9, 2006 AnthoFlex

Actually, im not supposed to say this, but this pic is going to be featured in my School's next School Newspaper issue...If anyone wants a copy of the newspaper, Send me an Email at AnthoFlex@yahoo.com or message me at Myspace.com/Soapshoes so that i can snag a WHOLE bunch of them ;)

Nice. Left leg needs to be tweaked a tad more though. But I guess everyone has their own tolerances to tricks.

Dec 9, 2006 AnthoFlex

I wear my watch on my right hand cause im left handed....Its one of my "flaws" just like another one of my "flaws" Is me not being able to ollie.....Im forced to heelflip up curbs and over things

Dec 10, 2006 30z

Nice. Heheh, you were sweating alot.

Dec 10, 2006 AnthoFlex

Yo 30z, you werent even there, you or your brother, And i was freezing my ass off

Dec 10, 2006 matrix8967

yeah, my girlfriend is left handed, and i'm right handed, so when we eat next to each other, i'll elbows bump...but anyway, I might be in the schools newspaper this year...which would be awesome...

---Alex

Dec 10, 2006 Kru

I'm left handed too :P

Dec 10, 2006 Slidey

Man, Your style totally rocks in that picture, Especially the fact that your hat going over your eyes like that and your hair coming out then end. The ladies are gonna b all over u mate lol. Of course u wouldn't look half as good if u wern't wearing soap stuff ;)

Dec 11, 2006 Mart

Royale style comes from knee bendage. I'm not seeing much of that here

Dec 11, 2006 SonicSoaper

Whatever, it's still an awesome Royale.

Dec 11, 2006 Soopahsonic

I love your plates. Kthxbai.

Dec 12, 2006 AnthoFlex

Hey look its Mart, sup dude, where have you been.....And as for my Royale, OH WELL its still a royale :)

Dec 12, 2006 AnthoFlex

Hmmmm, Royale style comes from the bending of the knees eh? Well then, i guess im not styling....but wait......Go2Crew, Slidey, matrix8967, SonicSoaper, and even broox like the style of it....so maybe i do have style....

(i honestly wish that more people would comment the grind though and not the color of my plates lmao (: )

Dec 12, 2006 Wesker

Nice photo Renny. Let's hit that spot up on Sunday.

Dec 12, 2006 AnthoFlex

YES! THATS WHAT IM TALKING ABOUT!

By the way, that spot is like 2 blocks away from my house......are you willing to make the trip?

Dec 12, 2006 Wesker

Corona isn't too far. Just let me know how to get there.

Dec 13, 2006 mgm

If you look at the picture submitted before this one you can see what Mart means about style.

Dec 13, 2006 Slidey

Royales are easier in backside and on slanted rails, people who can backside handrails should know that. Flat curvy rails are hard to do royales on, especially frontside royales. I think Renny done better than I could have done with a royale on that rail.

Dec 13, 2006 AnthoFlex

Ok fine, this pic has no style then, Wait until my next one :) I've got sumthing planned that few have ever seen me do

Dec 14, 2006 matrix8967

it is nice...u look like ur owning that rail (which you are) ur style just looks like "bam motherfucker!" maybe that's just me though...

---Alex

Dec 14, 2006 SonicSoaper

He's all like "ARUGUHGUGHGUGHGUHGUGHGUHGUHGUH!" *that's the sound a machine gun makes*

Dec 14, 2006 Mart

Hahaha, since when is a backside royale on a vert rail easier than a royale on a 18" high horizontal rail? Obviously the style is going to be more prominent on a vert, but backside is by no means easier

Didn't say it wasn't good Antho, just that there wasn't a great deal of style. It's easy to fix though; just get bend your knees and get down low. You're also forgetting that I know my stuff ;)

Dec 14, 2006 Slidey

I must be wierd then, I always found backside royales so much easier, and if i was gonna try a backside on a vert I would definatley do a royale, but everyone's different I suppose.

Dec 14, 2006 AnthoFlex

ah man, sorry about that then Mart, its just....you know our pasts differences....anywayz, you're totally right, i do need to bend my knees more. thanx again :p

Dec 14, 2006 SonicSoaper

That's actually how I hit Royales now that I look at the pic. (The way Renny's facing I mean.)

Dec 15, 2006 Mart

Slidey, do you jump front-foot first? If so, that could be why you find backside royales easier. Having said that, have you hit that grind on a handrail yet?

Dec 15, 2006 Slidey

For hip hieght rails and vert rails I jump front foot first, on medium rails I usually jump back foot first and on really low rails I jump front foot first. And no, I'm still looking for a short enough vert rail to try a backside royale on (so yeah I don't have any experience) my bad. XP

Dec 16, 2006 matrix8967

when i jump front foot first, it keeps going without the rest of me :( it's funny to watch, cuz no matter how many times i try, i end up on the ground. when i'm teaching people to soap they're like "i can't do it" and i'm like it's ok, watch this and i grind like that...and they're like "wow...I don't feel so bad anymore"...i don't know why i wanted to share that...but i did...

---Alex

Jan 19, 2007 AnthoFlex

i get a little funny feeling when i do backside Royales......for sum reason, i feel like i can hold them forever

Feb 19, 2007 AnthoFlex

I need to start using my Express more...my Septums are taking over my life......
.......
...

AHHH! I'm wearing them now!!!!!!

Feb 19, 2007 SonicSoaper

Should I call the Septum Control Unit?

Feb 19, 2007 RamenRadio

Maybe he doesn't want that lol

Feb 19, 2007 matrix8967

also, on my above comment, by front foot first, for somereason, i meant if i lead with my left foot (because i lead with my right usually) i don't know why i said "front foot first" wtf was i thinkin.

---Alex

Feb 22, 2007 AnthoFlex

i wish i woulda tweaked that front-foot more...then there woulda been more style.

Feb 22, 2007 SonicSoaper

You know what I end up doing sometimes to get more tweak on the front foot. I turn my hip to the side a bit and lean more on my back leg.

May 21, 2007 Spano565

hey anthoflex every pic or vid i see u do looks fricken awsome man i kinda look up to ya.

Jul 6, 2007 firegrind

hey anthoflex where did you get that hat with the soap logo?

Jul 6, 2007 RamenRadio

He got it from Steve Deel. No more :(

That is, until the meeting with HSL. Can't say for sure until september.

Jul 6, 2007 Megashadow77

Travis man, the HSL meeting is gonna be legendary. It's gonna turn SOAPs status upside down and inside out.....

At least, I hope so...>>

Jul 6, 2007 AnthoFlex

I didnt get that hat from Deel

Jul 11, 2007 Altman

He got it from THE FUTURE! OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO!

Sep 29, 2007 AnthoFlex

Now that i have progressed more in my soaping, my eyes are now a bit more open. I still think the picture is sick, but that royale is indeed kinda weak

Mar 4, 2010 Brad

Nice

Oct 16, 2013 gongon1037

the rail on this pic looks so fun. I would build a camp next to this rail and grind it all day and night. I love the shirt and hat also.
