Yeah me too it’s the real way to skate switch. I’ll post some more stuff later, just don’t wanna spam. I’m new but lurk all the time.... got sick of seeing all the weak clips with coloured grip tape.

Dude right? Hahah.
But hey i found an easier way to stand while skating true switch. When you get into true switch, you know how you press all the way up? Well slowly release that, like very slowly, and your guy will be standing.
Edit: Also someone downvoted my comment, we got weirdos lurkin.

Worries about being realistic then continues to grind around a unrealistic corner

Yeah did you not read the first few sentences saying don’t mind the shitty trick? It’s about highlighting the technique , not the trick after which was obviously terrible.

My bad looked right over it I guess

Not sure if I ever seen this anywhere but I think I just discovered this . So don’t mind the shitty trick, but I wanted to use this clip because I executed the stand perfectly.
One of the issues with being a simulation skater is skating in true switch for long periods of time. Your guy stands there fully crouched and bent down ready to pop. It looks stupid and unrealistic. Well... not now.
If you 180 and land, you press the stick all the way down like you about to pop. When he reaches the full bend, grab your board with R2 and like a split second after halfway press the stick like you’re going to manual.
Since your guy was in the grab animation, he won’t be able to manual, he will instead fully stand up. If you hold it in manual you can make your way to the next spot not crouched down looking all dumb, then pop your next trick in true switch still.
This is a pretty difficult thing to pull off but I’ve managed to get some sick looking lines with it and it’s really only for people who are trying to be more realistic. Just wish you could push in true switch.
This is really information! I dont wanna come off rude but lol ive been doing this since like 2016. Ive only seen a few people do it so i get why u havnt seen it. Thanks for sharing tho!
Oh of course dude I’ve had this game since day 1, just have never posted anywhere. I’ve been doing it a while without the grab, you can coast a good distance standing without the grab glitch, but you still manual sometimes if you don’t do it right. I just figured out the grab thing and it blew my mind haha
