Skateboard Trick Tips: Kickflip
Kickflips are sick but a difficult trick to learn. You’ve got to be able to ollie first. You need to be rolling (slowly at first) then setup your stance. Setup like an ollie with your front foot half way up the board and right about middle, and the back foot on the tail. If you are falling off all the time move your front foot more into the board. Then pop down and start dragging your front foot up like an Ollie and drag until you reach the front bolts. The only difference about this drag and your Ollie drag is that your foot drags on an angle until it falls of the edge and spins the board.
Remember to pop hard and really flick the board out with your foot, this helps your board spin. Once you have practiced the spinning and can spin a full kickflip directly under your feet then you should now practice catching and landing the board with both feet. It might take a while to learn not to kick the board out in front of you. Landing with both feet ain’t so easy. You need to really pop your board hard then tuck up and get out of the way of the spin.
Actually focus less on spinning the board and more on landing with two feet. Don’t be afraid to land on the board.
