Texas Plant, The

The Texas Plant is the funnest foot plant move that I can do. It seemingly a bit complex at first, but once you get it, is super easy. This is one of my moves that I plan to learn at Bay Creek. (Still can't get it anywhere but Pinckeyville, although I don't really try).

The Texas Plant involves putting your back foot on the ground as you shoot out of your desired transiition and grabbing indy, but with your front hand (is that slob?) and then grab your tail with your back hand and jump back into transition. I do them frontside. I don't know if it's the same trick with a backside jump.

I learned this one from watching videos of Raney Beres. I first noticed he did them and they looked awesome, so I decided to learn them.

An easier version of this trick is the Fastplant. I learned this one first and did it for a couple years, but is nowhere near as fun, yet is essentially the same thing as the Texas; the grabbing is the only thing different. You shoot out the transition with front foot on, back foot on ground, and grab indy (with your back hand) and jump back in.

Not sure if I will ever take these tricks to bigger tranny, but the idea is certainly entertaining.
