Finally starting to get some consistent forehand cutbacks in the water. I wouldn't say I learned it on the surf skate first, but once I started to get the feel for it in the water I could feel how the surf skate reinforced the mechanics during the weeks between surf sessions. I have the Carver CX trucks which are fun in the bowl, but I recently picked up a Carver C7 setup which I think is more responsive and fun on flatground. I feel like the C7 allows me to replicate the twisting motion and passing the coffee it little better than the CX. Been practicing some variation of this clip lately, and it's definitely helping in the water.
