I’ve always been the type of boarder who can do heel flips well but never got to doing a kick flip. Well, here’s a great video I found that shows you how to do a kick flip in the most simplest way possible.

Here’s another cool video on how to ollie from Chad Muska.

a

1. Smoke some buds

2. Now you should be feeling really high so go ollie.

Okay, just kidding, here’s the real version:

1. Keep your front foot nearer to center than normally.

2. When you kick your board with the back foot, hit that thang hella hard!  (so your board goes near vertical)

3.  Then jump as high as you can while bringing your front foot up the board vertically and tuck your knees to your chest.

That’s it, you will have to practice a lot with timing though, it’s not as easy as said but if you keep trying, you should be able to ollie over a garbage basket no problemo.

One of my favorite tricks on a skateboard is a heelflip.  Heelflip is basically the opposite of a kickflip where you use your heel to kick out instead of flipping in.

Heelflips can be great for jumping high too as you are kicking more “out” instead of trying to flip your board.

Well, don’t listen to me, watch as Tony Hawk and his friend shows you.

Here’s a video of a skateboarder doing a triple kickflip.  A triple kickflip isn’t too different from the regular kickflip except you do 3 flips.

How to do it?

Practice doing double kickflips by kicking the board harder while you jump.  If you master the double kickflips, try doing a triple simply by kicking the board harder. (or flippin’ it)

Once you get the hang of triple kickflips, it can get easier than a regular kickflip because you can kick it harder, therefore jump higher too.

The other day I noticed my skater friends had one of these subskate devices.  This thing is great for practicing your crazy jumps without risking yourself to injury by jumping into the pool while you ollie 360.

Here’s a cool video of how to do a 360 degree flip on a skateboard.

You probably need both of these skills before you can attemp this although I find it easier to do this than a kickflip.

1. Ollies

2. Kickflips

Well, this should officially be a “longboard” but heck it doesn’t matter.  Here’s a propeller-powered skateboard. (or um longboard)

Skateboarding gets more exciting as I strap a model airplane engine to the end of a skateboard.

I had a great time with this project. It was rather easy to put together and a whole lot of fun to test. I look forward to playing with it more and may update the video with more antics in the future.

Well, one of the most important things to do with a skateboard is to jump, or ollie as we skateboarders call it.

Basically, you will need to do the following:

1. Be in balance at constant speed.

2. Hit the back foot pretty hard while simultaneously jumping and sliding the forward foot up the board. (This should get you airborne)

3. Bring up the knees and finsh nice.

Here’s a nice video from YouTube on how to ollie:
