vic murphy did that trick alot

It was originally Luc-e's trick. He named it the Elvis Presley, it was on Style Cats i think.

[SaMAlex]

I watched an old Luc-e section on You tube not long ago. Id forgotten how good he was. He was way ahead of his time and loads of the tricks that only he was doing are very trendy tricks now, eg backwards stuff up and down stairs.

[darkersomeday]

thats such a mint trick phil, still cant get my head around it!

luc-e is defo one of my all time favourites, progenator of new school street,
like alex say's he was riding what cats are doing now years ago, freecoaster too, props to him that he deserves like

does anyone remember the section on standard country where he kicks the dude off his bike in a comp?

the cashius frame? how collectable?

does anyone want one for a good price?

right, i'm off to work on my "elvis"!!

[darkersomeday]

btw,
cheers for posting that up priv
was good to meet you the other day

Phil and I were there! It was a balancing comp for a laugh at Rampage everyone had to roll around the park without putting their foot down, Luc-e won it when he kicked the other lad's bike and knocked him off it was really funny and Luc-e is one of the nicest blokes you'll ever meet as well as the master of tech street!

[Philbert]

cheers everybody!

as soon as i have broadband next week (YES!) i'll be able to watch it myself.

and on luc-e, the guys a technical genius and the person i've stole most of my tricks from! thanks luc-e wherever you may be.

he did a real good elvis presley on either standard country or euro tour (can't remember without watching them both) in the dark on a flat bank with sparks flying from the pegs hitting the floor! looked awesome

[harris]

i would just crash in a mess on the floor trying that at the mo.. nice one phil..

[Flaz]

isnt that trick a tail whip for people who dont like heights 

[Trev]

i saw this guy do that at rom a couple of months back and thought it look really cool. i think it was one of mark likely's mates from southsea.

a really cool trick... 

you know we're gonna wanna see it done at Epic now? 

[SaMAlex]

Can we do it like the Generation Game? C.B.C.L. can show a load of us how, and then we can all have a go, with hilarious results!!! 

[Flying_fox]

So thats what the're called, an Elvis, nice one.

I've seen people pulling down my local park when its rained and you cant use the ramps. I've nearly got them, but they are so slow it looks proper gay, and i nearly dislocate my wrist when I try them.

I like Alex's idea of a show how and we can all film ourselves being rubbish. Then when we've got that wrong for ages we can move onto hang10s.

[Philbert]

looks like an elvis comp at epic then!

i'll try and write some instructions and hand them out at the park!

joe's got the drift of it though!

practice the 'loose grip' technique. doesn't have to be on a bike. use whatever tool you feel necessary, for best results something that feels familiar and i recommend practicing twice a day

[SaMAlex]

Do you think Morgan Wade had the Elvis down before he tried bike flip jumps?

ooh err misses.....

[Trev]

Thanks Phil for showing me the Elvis last night.... Not as difficult as it looks... 

Although I don't think I did it completely properly, I think i got the jist of it.  Must to the disgust of Laz...    Sorry Laz

Although I do suggest using gloves as I felt it was gonna rip through my hand...

[bmxer4ever]

Cool trick! Old thread, but who cares - I love that kind of instant. do anywhere kinda move. Nice one! Need to have a go now....

[Fashionrider]

[welsh denny]

[Philbert]

luc-e! the master of all things 'tech street'
