Kickflip skateboard trick tip

The following trick tip will show you how to Kickflip. Reading this trick tip is just the first step to learn the Kickflip, but know that you'll need lots of practise to land it.

Kickflip were invented in 1982 by Rodney Mullen, back then it was called an Ollie Kickflip because you really need to do a kind of an ollie in to it.

Start rolling at normal speed, your front foot is just before your front truck in an angle, my foot is in an 45 degree angle. Your back foot is on the tail like an ollie.





Hold your shoulders parralell to the board and pop up your board, and slide your front foot to the nose, just like an ollie.





When you reached the nose, slide your foot of the board, this has a technique behind it, When you slide your front foot towards the nose your ankle is in 90 degrees.




When you reached the nose of your board, flick your ankle of the board, try doing it a couple of times when your just standing on the ground, it's all about your ankle.





Now your backfoot is still in the air, and keep holding your front foot in the air to, this can be difficult but it's all in your mind.





Wait untill your board flips the full kickflip, if it flips to slow, flick your ankle harder and if it flips to fast, flick your ankle with more control.

now, as the board flipped a full kickflip, catch it, and land.









It's all about practice, it took me forever to get a good kickflip, but I think it's worth it
