Skate 2: footplant footy
If that isn't footplant, I don't know what is.
The name of the challenge is "They Call It Art", and it's part of the career progression. The task is "Ramp to Footplant to Ramp". It took numerous tries to make sure I hit the middle block with my footplant, and that I hit each ramp. However, even with the perfect execution in that clip up there, I didn't get credit for accomplishing the task. I have no idea what the game wants me to do.
At any rate, now that the game is live, it's cool to be able to see my sick footy online. That's actually "me" up there, doing that! Expect more of these next week.

Yeah that definitely looks like what they describe.
I think Bob was complaining about this... doing challenges over and over again without really understanding what exactly it is they want you to do, even though you're doing what it looks like you should be doing already.

That is definitely a footplant. I suspect you missed the "zone" since you're so close to the edge.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. I'd have to check from another angle, but it's also possible I ollied before actually touching the first ramp. The secret seems to be to hit the ramp going pretty slowly. But, sheesh, I swear that one's giving me fits. I've probably tried to hit that trick thirty times. Urk.

Make sure its not a fastplant, but specifically a foot plant. Go into the trick guide, it's a different foot for each one. Then you should have no trouble.
