A couple little things that helped me start landing these more consistently was to keep pressure on my toes, really focus on popping well, and lean back toward the heel side of the board just a little bit after you pop. It really lets you see the board rotate and I found that it helps me not catch the grip too much and flick my board out in front of me. Keep a solid amount of weight on that front foot and don’t forget to pick up your back foot as soon as you pop. The trickiest part was probably committing to landing with both feet on the board. Good luck and don’t give up!

[@Skiddyskates]

Great advice! Thanks for taking the time to give some helpful info. I’m sure it will help some people out.

[@surfskate_mom]

Finally a kickflip tutorial that also shows some beginner/intermediate skaters 😊 and girls.

[@oldbonz]

This is such a better description than the other billion of Kflips tutorials I have watched. Thanks and I'm going to learn them this year now!

[@Skiddyskates]

I hope you do! Tried to keep this one short and sweet I’m glad it is helpful.

Great tip! One thing that really helped me learn kickflips properly was making sure my shoulders stayed fully square with the board throughout the whole trick. When i started doing that properly my front foot really started gripping to the slide up the board which helped get them a lot higher. Also you have a very beautiful kickflip!

[@kizashikaze9066]

A few things that helped me out a *lot* when I relearned kickflips (after not doing them for 20 years lol) - Like Skidish said, wait until you pop before you flick! - Jump back juuuuust a little bit. This helped greatly with my front foot - Be patient when you're in the air over the board. - Keep your backfoot at least in the same line as it was when you popped. - Jump higher, let the board get more vertical before you flick, and tuck your back knees in when you're going for bigger flips.

He's back!!! It's time to skate ! Your tutorials help so much!!!

Binge watching your channel, I dig the way you format🤙🏼😎 Struggling with flip trix, Ollie’s are good on and off curbs, but I’m not squatting enough, working on muscle memory

[@JerrySeinfeld-kn4hy]

I kept getting stuck on the one practice step you see on Braille and other channels about standing still and just sliding your foot up and flicking over and over. This video helped something click in my brain to where now I can easily flip the board without having my front foot going straight down. The way I interpret this video is that having that front ankle "flush" (for lack of a better word) with the board as it makes its way up from the pop really cuts down on the amount of movement that is required. I started paying attention to the point where my ankle felt "parallel" (I need a dictionary) to the board and then just sent out a small ankle flick that would produce a nice spin each time while my front foot was still in the air. That almost upwards motion of the ankle flick is what keeps my front foot up. The sliding the foot over and over made me feel like I needed to extend my front leg really far like a karate kick. I feel like that is probably still the right way to get really solid kickflips, but the info at 2:48 really helped me once I marinated on it. Thanks for the help!

[@ryanrixon332]

Duuuuuuude! I discovered the waiting to flick bit by accident today! Soooo helpful! Haven't seen other people mention it.

[@TsunamiSkateboarding]

Bro I remember seeing your videos a few years ago and commenting thinking that you needed way more attention and you got it bro congrats on 80k 🎉

[@Skiddyskates]

Thanks! never thought it would get to 80k but im glad to have helped so manny and I have learned a lot in the process. Thank you for sticking around

[@lightfm90]

This channel will blow up eventually

[@chrismaggio7879]

It was magic to me watching the board rise and spin. It was just too quick of a motion to actually catch the technique... this was sooooo helpful. Thx!

[@axstnn3649]

Bro I’ve been struggling so bad ant advice?

[@Skateboyprime]

I will try a kick flip and will post my fail kickflip so that i can learn from my mistakes. Thanks for the tip Mate !

[@studderist]

this video was posted right when i figured out im ready to learn kickflips, it's like a message from the skateboard gods telling me i'm worthy enough

[@Skiddyskates]

Haha yes, you are worthy.

[@kenziekronic]

Kickflips are so fun but also a huuuge challenge to learn. Learning how to commit and put both feet back on the board was the hardest thing for me mentally. Just gotta trust yourself 😊

[@Skiddyskates]

The way you flick your kickflips is pristine.

I've found that if I just focus hard on where my front foot is going it helps my flick a lot

Please help. I always land with my back foot. The front one lands very quickly on the floor while the board is still flipping. I tried almost everything and can’t get it done.

[@Eatmymeat123_]

when i kickflip my two feet land on the tail and i dont know why help me pls

[@Skiddyskates]

It sounds like you are not jumping with the board. If you are getting too much grip when you flick and the board is flying away you are probably leaned back too far before you do the trick. stay centered and jump forward with the board. Hope that helps

Don’t learn to catch with your back foot. I did that and now I can’t catch with both my feet. Or my front foot. Ik im doing the flick wrong but landing on my back foot started that bad habit

[@Skiddyskates]

don't catch with your back foot? This is interesting

[@FoxyGrandpa75]

Honestly man, even though I have landed kick flips, fs shuvs, and half cabs and what not, I’ve realized I’m never going to improve with the poor quality of my Ollie’s. Would you consider doing a straight up regular old Ollie tutorial?
