an off video point...does anyone else think the tooth hanger/toothpick grind trend in a lot of videos is on the whole hideous (albeit skillful) and aesthetically they're a terrible trick that very few people can get right. Sort of like the unturndown of grinds, conceptually they're fine but in reality 99% look hideous.
Bar notable exceptions (Dan Lacey amongst others) very few people can lock into them and they end up being like a peg chink except for they land nose heavy. Also un luc-e grinds are fucking horrible and should be banned
