I care! In snowboarding, skating, wakeboarding ect. You could never get away with that. It's just wrong, if ya spill ya spill.

Nice work Toby! really like some of those weird axis rotations its a nice "spin" on a old trick.
good editing and pacing too... not sold on music selection though.
to all those waiting to see landings before they give TOby "street cred", well just watch his body position once hes out of the trick, hes almost always in perfect position. He landed just about everyone of those you dont even need to see it

In snowboarding, skating, wakeboarding ect
you sound like those who want to copy those sports. Still, this is kitesurfing, where people use a kite to jump and cut landings

If you dont land the trick, you dont land the trick...but dont cut it off at the last second. Its annoying.
If you land it, if you barely land it, if you bail hard and get an enema or water shoots up your nose...SHOW IT!
Who cares about "street cred" or "claiming tricks" (obviously not Toby with Old School shit like that) but its just not aesthetically pleasing when its prematurely cut-off at the end like that.
Show the bail next time..

Even if landing are not showed to have better rythm, the ends of the tricks in this video are so clean that it's sure that +80% are landed.
It's difficult to imagine that an old school video can be better !
