will it be possible to do steezy landings? for example a full cab flip where you spin 270 degrees then pivot the rest

Probably, it will be like landing in manual then turning it and going down really fast.

They wouldn't do that it's either land the trick clean, sloppy, or fall.

when you land sloppy is that when it makes the powerslide noise? because in one trailer some skater (forget which one....or which trailer) does a trick into a hill bomb. its a spin trick and you can hear a bit of a slide, but you can't see it that well

When you land sloppy your guy just has a hard time balancing but still lands. I never heard the powerslide noise, but if you find the trailer post it.

Well if you are doing a full cab manual you don't really want it to go in the air like 10 minutes before you land perfectly into a robot like manual, come on now, I think it would be better to have a bit of pivot in there, I saw on the first gameplay trailer that he did a board slide I think, I dont feel like watching it again but he did something and came out very sideways and started rolling a lot slower in that direction, he didn't straighten it out but he didn't land very good, I hope its something decently put into the game, because I like the feeling of even simple stuff like when I land switch, doing half of a half cab and then pivoting the rest, one it feels good and 2 its a promising way of no mistakes going back to normal stance. I like landing pivots, some tricks won't look good obviously but if it doesnt look good then dont pivot, thats how I feel about it.

In the very first video released, he does a boardslide on the last rail and lands like 45 degrees off clean.

Well I think grinds will be different for pivots then flip tricks.
