🛼 How to Do a Mistrial Grind – Aggressive Inline Tutorial

Difficulty: Intermediate
Best for: Street spots, ledges, coping
Style points: 10/10 if you lock it clean 😎

🎯 What is a Mistrial Grind?

The Mistrial is a soul grind variation where your front foot is in the frontside position (toe facing forward), and your back foot is in the classic soul position (toe facing out). It looks steezy and technical—perfect for adding some flavor to your clips.

🧠 Before You Try It

  • Basic soul grinds
  • Frontside grinds
  • Jumping onto ledges confidently

🪄 Step-by-Step Breakdown

  1. Find a good ledge or box
    Low, waxed, and stable. Curbs or low ledges are ideal.
  2. Approach at a slight angle
    Not too straight and not too sideways—think 45 degrees.
  3. Jump and lock your skates
    Front foot lands like a frontside grind. Back foot turns out into soul position. Keep knees bent and arms balanced.
  4. Lean slightly into the ledge
    Just enough to keep balance without slipping off.
  5. Ride it out and exit clean
    Pop off the ledge or slide to the end. Spot your landing and roll away smoothly.

🧼 Common Mistakes

  • Leaning too far forward = you'll slip out
  • Not committing = awkward landing or missed lock
  • Wrong foot placement = messy or missed grind

Why Inline Skaters Love 72mm Wheels – And Why You Might Switch Too There’s a new trend rolling hard in the aggressive and urban skating scenes: 72mm wheels . What was once seen as “too big” for tech tricks is now becoming the new normal. But why? Speed Meets Style 72mm wheels offer the perfect balance between speed and maneuverability. You get the fluid motion of urban skating, while still being able to grind and express your style. It’s no wonder skaters like @jarofrijn_ are experimenting with different setups during big events like the Hanglosers Super Bowl . More Flow, Less Impact Bigger wheels = smoother ride. Especially on rough city streets, 72mm wheels absorb more vibration, saving your knees and helping you flow from trick to trick without being stopped by cracks or pebbles. Not Just for Freeride Many aggressive skaters were skeptical. But modern frames and setups (like Wizard Frames or Big Block-style UFS ) now make it possible ...
