Why You CAN'T Varial Kickflip! | Common Mistakes Explained!

[@jbapratt]

dude no cap, you are literally the best teacher ever, every time I watch a vid, I land the trick. You are the best

[@seanbrownskating]

That's awesome to hear! :)

[@calebolsen5801]

I have been working on varials for about 2-3 weeks, and after watching this video I went out for a couple hours and ended up landing 4 of them. The tip that did it was to kick in the direction my toes are pointed. Thank you!!

[@seanbrownskating]

Awesome!!

[@masoncondello303]

i'm not kidding i just started to learn varials yesterday and now that i've watched this video i think i can nail it by the end of the month or so, thank you so much!

[@Schwing3]

Definitely want to thank you, ive been struggling with varial flips for a wile now, and that one tip about not flicking the same direction as a kickflip but actually forward literly made all the pieces fall together for me I landed my first one 10 mins after watching this 👍👍👍

[@seanbrownskating]

That’s awesome!! Good work!

[@fishbone4504]

Landed it 5 tries after watching , resting my front foot on the heel was the secret, thanks g

[@seanbrownskating]

Let’s goooo!

[@skaterboi2187]

Thanks! I was already able to land it bit it would only flip half way now I can flip it the full rotation and land the trick way better than before.

[@dpeters3398]

Omg dude, this is my first ever vid i am watching of u and u make soooo much sense, its actually crazy how much more i understand now, wut i was doing wrong is prob kickfliping like a normal kickflip and wut tht did is my front foot didnt hit the board so when i attempt it my board just went flying cause my fromt foot didnt touch it, it went to much off to the side, i now understand y, im so definitely subbing, u r the best teacher, u deserve much more, keep it up!

[@seanbrownskating]

Thanks!

[@federicorossi1670]

Very helpful maaan! My problem was the movement of the flick that it went in an empty space in the air and not on the board.. Thank s!

[@brads6304]

Excellent instruction method and style. Subbed.

You don’t understand how many tricks you’ve helped me land tysm!

That makes me happy! :)

[@stevenlim1185]

I've learned varial flips, then lost them, then got them back again, and now I've lost them again. I think im going to re-learn them with this video. a lot of other videos I've seen doesn't explain how to do it that much

[@lukaswolf5829]

I don't know what it is with that trick. I had them pretty much down for a while, now struggling for years. Really need to conquer them again

[@nathan-ye7lq]

I’m already close to landing but tomorrow I’m gonna try some of your tips out 🔥

[@EliasDeAlmeida]

Landed 1 or 2 or these with the kicking forward tip from your last video on the v flip. Great tip! Cant wait to get these down better.

McCarthur mall in norfolk, Va? I was stationed there. have you skated the skatepark there too?

[@angelvides9158]

I just went straight into trying to tre flip instead of varials and I’m learning to get the rotation down

[@dennisdemarcus720]

A buddy of mine said turning your shoulders towards the flip will help get the shuv rotation. So a backside turn. What do you think?

[@AntoineVac]

Your varials really look so good!!

[@seanbrownskating]

Thanks!! :)

[@bohmadabibi3172]

I got the rotation down but i always land in front of the board or with backfoot on the nose... any tips?

Don't know if you'll see this, but I spent an hour yesterday, and I can't stop myself from opening up my hips like a FS 180 when I try this. It's almost like I kickflip away and turn at the same time. Any tips other than just trying not to?

[@kellenadams06]

I’m better at varial flips when I scoop but when I pop I don’t get a good varial flip should I just stay with scooping ?

[@danielerazorodriguez2496]

I've seen this video like tre times to remember all steps to land this trick

[@madlen7252]

my only problem is that in the middle of the trick i switch my legs ( my backfoot goes to front ) i cant help it its just a reflex 😭

[@dwolivas]

My varial equation is 1. Pop goddamnit 2. Slightly harder than usual kickflip from regular kickflip position 3. Slightly softer than usual backfoot scoop. Pop, flip, then scoop, for me it only works in that order. I can land 3 of these in a row but when I do them moving, I die. What is the secret to landing them rolling? I can land a rolling switch heelflip but can't land a regular rolling varial!

[@Bleseddd1]

I literally landed one while watchijg this video 💀

[@dylan.napier]

its bc im used to the way i flip tre flip so when i try varials i do tre flip

[@Skatercrush]

i remember struggling for the kickflip.. now i struggle for this move. (1/28/22) 12:28 am

[@zadekeys2194]

The real secret to a varial flip is to do the entire trick with your front foot. This makes the board flip and move infront of you , kind of like a dolphin/dragon flip . Your backfoot should just be used to pop the trick.

[@seanbrownskating]

I pretty much agree 👍🏽

[@skateboardingbotswana4992]

The sad truth about skating is that tricks don't come easy 😔

[@seanbrownskating]

Exactly, they don’t. But that’s what makes finally landing it so rewarding! 🤩🔥

[@breezy4496]

Thanks, you helped me with the scooping and the foot placement and flick motion Idk how I land this once though lol but I'm gonna try it tomorrow after school

[@clarkswurld9097]

everytime i attempt to v flip im flicking too fast.

[@TheAsiansk8ter]

Personally I learned to Varial Kickflip before Kickflips. The range of motion is much easier to commit and jump onto compared to the Kickflip.

Yes I been trying to learn how to kick flip and accidentally land varial kickflips still tryna get my kick flip down

Why you can’t Hardflip or Noseslide ?
