[@rowan4249]

[@lucydaniel2699]

+jonas christensen I'm not gay for him bc I'm female...

[@JonasTuk]

Lucy Daniel, no one on the internet is female. We all know that.

[@CMNCHE]

I wish I had as much fashion sense as spencer.

[@jankolbe2879]

+Evan It's just 3 basic steps actually: 1. Wear black only. 2. Be chill af all the time. 3. Profit!

[@XD-ly7fp]

wear all black mishka clothes lol

[@willyhe8713]

+Jan Kolbe pretty much be a goth hippie

[@ericlundie3822]

+TheGodlyOne no. He's not goth at all and definitely not a hippie. Maybe the word you were looking for is "hipster" not hippie?

[@marcorivera2478]

+TheGodlyOne worst people alive goths and hippies

[@lordfrida5293]

[@babypanda7564]

[@niq4220]

its called having a good mic

[@spartada2399]

baby panda wtf

[@whanowa]

Fuck I wish KZbin had been a thing when I was still a skater.

[@ryanalfe2146]

Get back into it

[@whanowa]

***** I´m soooo thinking about it. But it´s been over 12 years man and I wasn´t even a good skater.

[@ryanalfe2146]

whanowa things have changed ever since 12 years, now you have videos to help you step by step. I myself quit for around 2yrs "not a lot but still". And I quit beause I couldn't learn any tricks. I started back again this Jan, and I'm progressing really fast, I know the nollie, Ollie, Ollie switch, shuv pop shuv. Don't worry man

[@whanowa]

***** I guess so. Five years after quitting I had a one day session and hell I could still pop a kickflip after the third try. It´s kinda amazing how long muscle memory lasts!

[@ryanalfe2146]

whanowa yeah! but if I could do it I'm sure you could too I hope you get back into it man!

[@shawnherrera9139]

I LANDED MY FIRST KICKFLIP YEASTERDAY! Edit- Thanks for all the support you guys have given me

[@aidansmith7818]

Shawn Herrera how do u land it cause I can't

[@shawnherrera9139]

Aidan Smith it's hard to explain you, for one you HAVE to use that certain part of your toe, if you don't it's harder to flick, but I practiced 6 hours a day on just kick flips and got it in a week, but even after you land it you have to keep practicing to get it better

[@skrillamynigga6288]

+Shawn Herrera This totally helped me. THX

[@imfromthemagnoliastatemiss2244]

+Shawn Herrera stfu you shuc

[@imfromthemagnoliastatemiss2244]

+Shawn Herrera at least I can kickflip

[@GmoP97]

Give this gentleman his own series of tutorials or his skate life, please "ride" we love this guy. His cockyness is what makes him funny

[@P.08]

one of the main reasons that I am subscribed to this channel .... SPENCER NUZZI's trick tips ! they are simply the best ones out there on youtube

[@youngJiip]

Same dude I subbed for spencer lol

[@KhaTecK]

[@kunchantube]

[@alteringmind3015]

[@smoke2that681]

Beamohh good shit man

[@yamakebbeh76]

Realy

[@ride]

***** Rodney Mullen invented it, and Spencer nuzzi teaches you how to do it. Learn How To Kickflip! It is one of the greatest tricks of all time, and you will have fun doing this trick for the rest of your life.

[@Everskate]

***** definitely

[@bladeerunner]

***** Even if hes high while he does it

[@positivepigeon7660]

Hey man what do I do if my board wants to do a varial kick flip instead of a kickflip? When I go to do it my board goes to flip like a kickflip and then suddenly it veers off to the right and the back of the board ends up as the front if you know what I am trying to say.

[@Casualboxingfan]

steve pitt Make sure your foot is popping straight down, a varial is basically a pop shuv it and a kickflip.

[@positivepigeon7660]

cheers man!

[@skateloverforlife]

Gotta love Spencer Nuzzi.

[@moistcrevices8122]

I remember watching this video so many times a few years ago. Spencer Nuzzi is the reason I know how to do most of my flat ground tricks.

[@nikolasgibson3438]

The side by side ollie kickflip is so cool. Shows how precise a skater has to be, as even a small change in the movement has a massive effect on how the board reacts.

[@erockerock238]

Thanks to you Spencer/Ride (along with Aaron Kyro) I landed a kickflip today. I quit skateboarding at around age 15 because I got frustrated with it. I had no mentors or instruction and I was too afraid to go to a skate park and ask for help. I'm 23 and I just picked up skating again. Thanks to these videos and others, I'm progressing faster than I could have ever hoped.

[@cheako899]

eTingz e

[@erockerock238]

Yeah?

[@TOObusyskatingMEDIA2]

Spencer is amazing perfect style,amazing tech, mellow mood, knows how to give trick tips and overall he's a great person. wish the best for you Spencer and ride channel much love from all of us. keep skating

[@richardeckersley28]

Top man, best description and demo I have seen on here.

[@husby25823]

Great edits, Spencer!!! Props from Germany to your work.

[@superman60761]

RIDE Channel can you give him his own series or something for trick tips or any extra shit? That would be sick

[@nostalgictherapy2013]

Brutha

[@ludosanderz]

Great tutorial !, He explains everything super well.

[@TheLordOfCha0s]

Thanx bro, watched heaps of other kick flip vids. Could never do this trick back in the day. I'm 39 just started skating again and today started landing em on concrete thanx to your video. Im so stoked I'm still learning but a huge thanx, your simplicity in your video is what made the difference. So what I now say to myself just before i do a kickflip is... pop, flick, commit...... For me if i do all three good enough I'll land. Thanx again bro, and i also hope what has worked for me helps someone else.. From Australia Dave 🤙

[@dexthgun6090]

I find Spencer the best at simple how to's for trick. I have learned a few tricks from his vids than others could with complex explanations

[@r4fken]

Not going to lie, I haven't skated in years, maybe 9 or 10. I just found my old board while sorting out my in the loft junk. Perhaps its time to get into skating again...

[@thesmgnoob4803]

Yes

[@kyleyesiahsupree]

YES please

[@vincmasta]

yes man,... i just got back to skateboarding after 13 years... never too late, i guess

[@Betoruffo]

TheSmgNoob why not

[@EncikBoha]

How's ur progress brotha?

[@skylerd2029]

[@lanefaulhaber875]

I love the style of this video! Also, really appreciated the angles showing what's going on with your feet.

[@raulnunez2646]

THANKS SPENCER!!! IT WORKED FOR ME!!!! THANKS A LOT SPENCER!!! YOUR THE BEST!

[@AlexDotchev]

[@Shinta_YT]

***** Yea but it's Spencer Nuzzi

[@custudking]

sasho ur vids are best

[@PanewsONE]

you are, no dought, the best trick instructor on youtube for skateboarding, and Ive seen loads! Enjoy it, everytime when a new video with you comes out especially because im quite new to skateboarding and the trick tips are really helpful! keep your great work up and there may be some typos:D

[@SamAndSanah]

Check Aaron kyro out mate spencer nuzzis good but no doubt Aaron is a million times better👍

[@PanewsONE]

of course I know aaron and technically his tutorials might be a bit more in dept but nuzzi is just such a cool dude and I love the slow motion from all those angles

[@crvenzon]

This was great! Looking forward to practicing this today!

[@ajg8600]

I wonder why i keep coming back to this video?spencers kick flips are perfect ,and its damn calming for some reason. Hella satisfying.

[@praseth]

Nuzzi needs his own channel!

[@Diff3r3ntas]

ihatespencernuzzi

[@wilyt123]

Gytoox Eta well fuck you :-D

[@TobiKrois]

WILLtv Thats Spencers KZbinchannel, he's no hater :D

[@Diff3r3ntas]

I actualy love spencer, hes my inspiration of skating ;)

[@TheZBenz11]

Gytoox Eta I total agree. He's what got me into skateboarding

[@nnateo]

This tutorial really helped. It took me about 2 - 5 days to nail it, but, it paid off.

[@alaric_apoluna1495]

2020 and im still here..

[@forestbroz4549]

I like how he shows how simple it really is, people often complicate it too much, thx man

[@tristanjewell9292]

love it how he smiles for the entire trick

[@sxndra.y543]

this dude is like the one dude thats high af at the skatepark and just absolutely sending it

[@tylergreen712]

ik this video is for kickflips...but watching you olli in slow motion REALLY helped me understand it better thank you

[@21anandyadav]

I’ve come back to this video so many times …. It reminds me of my childhood and so many memories 🥺

[@Pavel_Franta]

amazing way how to explain things ... clear, easy, gentle voice... suddenly everything seems easier, which is point of tutorial :)

[@cavanbrady1591]

I feel like Spencer should do tutorials in skate games....

[@KjvYaBoii]

T Y

[@ashmyblunt]

This video helped me learn this over a year ago, thank you spencer

[@ProdigalSuns]

As a kid there was no you tube I never learned to Kick.. 25+ years later at the young age of 47 I just learn drilling kick flips.. In uploading a video tomorrow with my advice as a old guy. You give the best instruction on you tube though.

[@PitiPablo_]

Make a Spencer Nuzzi's skateboard setup video

[@deven4866]

Yes! With his own setup and preferences, not what he has to show because of ride channel.

[@deven4866]

but see that's what im wondering. In his set up video he uses spitfire classics. but in other instructional videos he use bones wheels and states it's his favorite. Just, stuff like that makes me wonder what his actual setup preference was.

[@endlessweekend5041]

Nuzzi explains everything so easily :$

[@skateman7884]

Nice Video Ride! It really helped me. Before when i was doing the kickflip, it was flying everywhere. But now I have control of the board. Thanks :)

[@lasagnapirate7726]

This video helped me so much. Thanks you

[@porterx2kidd]

0:07 how I land every time

[@zoieeeeeee.]

[@mitch3llcox261]

Go team goofy

[@jayanddad5799]

You're my favorite skater! Thanks for the video!

[@PUPPETgio]

doooope this is helpful! i used to watch thrasher 101 vids like over 10 yrs ago on VHS. Gettin back on the board after a decade :)

[@TheMelMan]

Spencer is a cool dude!

[@Yoel69]

I want to see slow mo pop with fresh boards and waterlogged boards

[@sarasardina597]

I love his videos!

[@R4ndnn]

our very good best skateboard channel helped me a lot !!!!!

[@jesusfarias6583]

I learned this trick In about two weeks after I got my ollies down good and high. Thank you Spencer. I've almost had a year of skating, after learning kickflips it really does open up to new tricks. I have my kickflips (that are as clean as his), varial flips, tre flips, front side flips, hardflips, and half cap flips. Funny thing is, I'm bearly getting my heelflips . . . good luck to all of you trying to learn this. It was frustrating as fuck when I tried it

[@jesseharding4641]

How long did it take you to ollie?

[@jesusfarias6583]

about a good 3 weeks lmao. I kept doing ollies until I could get up curbs and ollie over at least one board (I can do 3 stacked sideways)

[@jesseharding4641]

Jesus Farias I've been trying for about a month and I can barely get my board over a gutter :(

[@NiteMDE]

Jesse Harding The more you ride around with your board and get familiar with it, the easier tricks will come because you'll be more comfortable. When pros like P-rod say #skateeverydamnday, thats what they mean

[@jesseharding4641]

jakurinkid Cheers for the info man!

[@OGPlanetRedstone]

holy fuck spencer nuzzi's kickflip is so stylish clean

[@achannelwithnocontentever9972]

Came back 9 uears later to say thanks spencer. You made my kickflips so muuxh better

[@JordanDcruz]

This guy is so chill it's unreal

[@itoverwithplaya4953]

I came here to watch how to kickflip cos the last time i landed one was when i was 12-13 cant remember only got to do it once. Now im 26

[@adanrodriguez2124]

Itoverwith Playa lol now I’m 26 with the same thought

[@dimitrijemitic3703]

Man, that grip artwork is so sick

[@marcom248]

I remember watching this tutorial 7 years ago :) now I’m the one teaching kickflips and other skate tricks to my friends

[@sanderdrange1743]

Extremely helpful video. Have made te kickflipp in like 1/7 did it first try after 40 seconds of watching thos video

[@MultiHappyPancakes]

OH MY GOD THANK YOU SO MUCH SPENCER I FINALLY LANDED MY FIRST KICKFLIP

[@CamilleLasbleiz]

Yaaaaaay

[@SirSnipington]

OMG! Lol it only took me 3 days to land a kickflip smooth and good. I can do it every single time I try it now!!!

[@NinjaTuna81]

Batman dammit batman fighting crime with your kickflips

[@SirSnipington]

NinjaTuna81 lol

[@nathanielmay2542]

***** I'm going on 3 years with my ollies

[@ethangil8210]

Nathaniel May bro I'm not saying you should quit skating, or that you should give up, but maybe skating isn't for you if it takes you a whole 3 years and you don't even have your Ollie's down

[@mashmax98]

***** Nathaniel May well saying "i needed 3 years for ollies" doesnt say anything. You wont get an ollie down if you dont commit, and it will never be enough to do like 3 tries on your ollies per week. E.G. i was "trying" do do kickflips for about half a year now, but last weekend i tryharded and spent about 10 hours on praciticing, now i got them down quite well. I think nearly everyone could learn to ollie in about 5 days if he only committed hard.

[@juliannuzzi7025]

awesome spencer nuzzi 🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@TylerHeim]

phenomenal video!

[@brianestrada1738]

I can't kickflip but I land varial flips like every try Update: I can do very good kicklips

[@brianestrada1738]

I landed a couple kickflip today But I'm kinda having trouble controlling the board so that It doesn't do a varial flip

[@snowgoose0571]

Varial flip was my first flip trick, but then I don't do them anymore after I learned how to kickflip

[@sheamus123100]

+RecklessSk8R I had the exact same problem for a while, just try not to scoop the board and pop straight down

[@Jacobus.J]

just pop dont scoop

[@ikebuttle360]

I tre flipped first now when I try kickflip I varia as well I think I'm jumping backwards causing the board to 180

[@BxrTerror]

Everyone is forgeting to tell that you also need to jump backwards. thats important to know

[@bigbubbabonney8091]

dude i love the sunglasses intro thing. u justbearned a like on this video and plus this vedio was helpful

[@rayane8422]

spencer you're the best !!!

[@skateloverforlife]

Yoo Spencer pleasee how to varial flip? Thanks.

[@giemeljames7611]

I just landed my first kickflip todaaaay! Feels great. 😂

[@kjghdfuggfjklhgdfghd]

This guy actually helped me a lot

[@alexbeaver2451]

Great videos you don't over complicate like other tutorials

[@jacklauletta2789]

I’ve learned more from watching 3 videos of spencer than I have learned from Braille in 3 years

[@poisonism2874]

dude got mad hops

[@alfredeilola9329]

I like hos i have been watching these just cause it is Spencer nuzzi like i can do some of the tricks bit i still watch them over and over again

[@mindmelters2093]

Didnt know u blazed wish you started when i did ! Crazy how u turned pro too, which is not surprising i remember when u first got your Noselslide Nollie Flip out on curbs and that CVS ledge x) hope u doing good man, btw u are always withholding ur footage! U always have bangers in ur private safe lol we need a new vid brother!!!

[@timonraccoon]

11/19/19 I will never forget this day, I landed my first kickflip with loafers

[@DFxWoLvEz]

But I do realize that when skating, you learn things some people never teach you. Like, just lifting your front foot up just before you pop the tail, instead of literally jumping. Most people usually leave all the wait on their front foot, which may cause the board to do thing you don't want it to do. Of-course it isn't going to guarantee you to automatically land the trick first try, but it really helps.

[@natandrake4608]

Hey, dude, awesome video! I like camera-guy style, you showed everything pretty well, so спасибо, очень помогло!)

[@Don-28]

my favorite skateboarding video since the day i decided to skate!

[@sWAGmONEY-tu7fr]

omfg after 3 years of learning this i got on go skate day

[@Charlie-ql1dg]

My goal for go skate day was hard flip and this I got most close to hard flip

[@eoaklandd2562]

2019 anyone

[@Jinseng]

Spencer has one of the cleanest kickflips I've ever seen

[@ronin2003]

I learned to kickflip from this video 🖤🖤🖤

[@kabelosehanka8302]

[@sklee0324]

[@J3ttLife]

[@J3ttLife]

+Evan Considine lol of course I try. I practice every single time I skate

[@toyoda4015]

+Mark Calvillo 3 years and i finleland

[@HermiwOw]

+Daniel Dough kick it more diagonally :)

[@insainejoker8237]

My brother has been skating for 4 years and still can't do an Ollie.

[@techwick7969]

+Daniel Dough be balanced in the middle don't lean in any direction

[@hopepletting476]

Is there anyway to learn how to skate without a board? Because my dad said I can't have skateboard until I can skate but I can't skate because I don't have anything to learn on.

[@jarnesegers9556]

Well...that's fucked up

[@aidanboyd258]

Get a plank of wood put some thing greasy and waxy at the botum

[@dasia.5906]

You need a skateboard to actually learn .

[@poisontutorial]

Your dad is basically telling you .. you are not getting a skateboard lol .. :/ sorry to break it down but there is noway in hell you'll learn unless you get or borrow a skateboard

[@RSHaycub]

Get a really dirt cheap board for a few bucks and practise, that's what i've got until i'm shedding a load on a board just to snap it. You don't need to tell him about it :L

[@napoleondynamite4148]

Brings back memory’s

[@chiefnug4098]

I remember watching this before I bought my first board. Had to re watch after setting up a new one
