I’m 28, have been skating since 26. I still can’t kickflip and it’s caused me to take multi month long skate breaks from being so mad about learning them 😂 I appreciate these tips !! I’ll come back and edit this comment when I finally land it ! Lol

@megaseth419 Ай бұрын

Everyone learns at different paces. I remember it taking me months to do a kick flip. Then some little kid joined our crew who somehow became a pro level skater in like a year. Taking several month long breaks is exactly why you still can't do it. You just gotta keep at it every day. Practice makes perfect. I remember being a teenager practicing kick flips and them not coming easy to me. One day I got so frustrated I cried. But instead of giving up, I told myself I'm not going home tonight until I land 1. I was there past dark trying until I finally landed one. The next day they came easier to me.

And although not as hard to give up as far as withdrawals and shit go it still wasn't easy and has been as destructive to my life as any other drug addiction. But anyway, I'm 46 now and gave up skating at about 30 due to a bad back but since I stopped smoking I'm startin to get friggin fat. Rather than the weed givin me the munchies it was more like an appetite suppressant. So I'm consider gettin back on the board. My masseuse/ physio keeps tellin me I need to exercise more and I told him "I used to skate" and he told me "that'd be good exercise, why don't ya go down the skatepark?" And I told him "cause I'll be back next week tellin ya I hurt something else fallin off my bloody board lol". And the bastard council made an awesome skate park a few years ago and I'm hanging out to skate it. So maybe it's time for a come back. 🤷‍♂ Here's a quick tour of my local park.

Great to see a rail hack for learning. I don't see that mentioned often. When I first got my Kickflip I did that but slightly different way to yours lol. I also did it 2handed to keep me up, then went to 1 handed, then in the middle of it I removed both hands then eventually did it without the rail/fence! The biggest tip there for me was 2hands, 1 hand, stop holding mid air then no hands at all! I got it really fast by doing those 4 mini steps, the fear just goes away when u do it like this! 😁

When explaining to people what works for me, it gets complicated. But let's use the terms fold and curl. When I fold my foot, it's like turning my whole foot inwards towards the other foot. If I were to stand on it, it would be the solid outter edge of my foot or even the side of my foot. The curl is more like turning my toe inwards towards the other foot. The typical ollie is a lot more folding, and for me the kickflip is a lot more curling of the foot. That controls your position before the flick. Since you position your front foot pointing a bit more towards the nose, then once you slide up to the nose let the concave fold over your shoe and pull it back heelside to get the foot out of the way. You don't have to flick straight past the nose if it creates too much friction on the shoe. You can just curl and pull the foot out by the concave once it gets close to the nose. There's like a little 'pocket' there. I can even kickflip and ollie without rubbing the top of my shoe by limiting how much folding I use. All kickflips use some folding, and all ollies use some curling, too. Also if you notice how people get taught to do a boned ollie, they usually get told to fold the back foot. Or in some cases, you can fold the back foot to catch a high 360 shove it early. While I didn't create those two terms, I define them here in my own way as needed to convey those features of what I try to do when I skate, personally. Someone else might interpret curl and fold differently, fold usually means you actually, and accidentally, fully tweaking your ankle in some cases. But I needed more than one term to distinguish the features of the two movements, hope it helps.

@6feetunderpants Ай бұрын

Thanks for the effort, but I don't get the difference still. Your definitions of 'fold' and 'curl' are worded the same, except one says "foot", while thr other says "toe". 😐 Could you rephrase the definitions? Do the movements happen in the same plane?

@scrollmadnessmedia Ай бұрын

it took me one year to learn the kickflip, awesome teaching. I was a hopeless case so if anybody feels the same I would also recommend try spread your feet more apart so that means the front foot the closest to the front bolts and more heel hanging completely off the edge out, And, keep your shoulders parallel to the board (do not open up as you kick), And, finaly key secret ingredient: Keep watching your backfoot as you jump. This will force you to stay closed. Nobody thinks about the eye sight but I found out from an old rodney mullen video. And thats how even an ass like me made it! (it takes time, dont give up).

@HighGroundArmwrestling Ай бұрын

After youve gotten down youre kickflips pretty consistently amd are really comfortable doing them but there not necesarily high or look very good , a good tip i kinda discovered myself is when you slide and kick out for the flip u dont want to do it super fast and instantly. Slightly delay the flip and let youre board get some height, almost to the the top and then smoothly flip out.i know it sounds difficult but once you do it it succesfully a couole times ull get the feeling down and youre kickflips will reach another level. Super important not to over exagerate the delay in the flip to much.its just an ever so slight delay in flip. Anyone really good knows what im talking about

You also need to pop, then flick. It feels like a very small ollie. Don't pull your front leg up too high. If you can ollie like 5" off the ground you can probably learn to kickflip.

Great explaining, check Great practice tipps, check Great board setup, check Great style, check Your tutorial was nice to watch and easy to understand. I learnd kickflips this year and i‘ve seen a lot of tutorials about it. But i have never seen one on how to commit. It‘s key for sure. I‘ll try the marker on the floor. And we have a fence at our lokal skatepark that‘s made out of pipes. We often train flip tricks leaning on the fence. One more thing i can recommend is training on the trampolin. No trucks of course. It helped a lot learning my treshove and my bigspin. And it helps to get a feeling for spinning per se. Maybe i can do a backflip with my board one day. Btw, hope you‘re still strong fighting the devils lettuce. I quit about 3 weeks before your video. Meanwhile i quit again. It‘s so hard. 😓

Yo serious question, are there actually "twin tail" boards? Like boards with a tail shape as the tail and nose? If so that shit would have been a game changer for me back in the day. For watever reason back when i skated i could only do proper flip tricks when skating the tail as the nose. When id do anything with nose in front it would always be rocketed trash. Especially kickflips. But when i skated the tail as the nose my flip tricks were soooo nice. Super floaty, caught with back foot and boned wenever i wanted. Very weird, never understood why it happened. But if i had a twin tail back then!!! I wouldnt have to constantly make sure im skating the right side😂
