Skateboard DIY – How to Heelflip!

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.

Skateboard DIY – How to Triple Kickflip!

March 9th, 2009 by Board Sports1

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.

skatepark

Well, I’ve noticed on our twitter account that user skateparks has a website called Skatepark Directory where you can find skateboard parks in your area using Google Maps API.  I typed in “94132″ and pretty much got the above screenshot, it seems it’s missing some parks near San Francisco where I live but heck, nice job with it.

I am sure the directory will get better and larger as we go along but feel free to check it out.

Snowboard Multi-Tool Screwdriver and Pipe!

March 9th, 2009 by Board Sports1

multi-tool

Here’s a really cool snowboard multi-tool screwdriver and pipe from Italy.  I do personally own a similar screw tool but this one is extra special since it comes with a pipe that you can use while on the slopes.

The device is sturdy, and the screwdriver’s been helpful countless times I’d want to adjust bindings quickly. The handle and spring loaded release for the tool are easily useful with gloves on, and lock at 90 and 180 degree positions for more screwing speed or power. The tape measure is a bit short at 22 inches, so not that great for measuring between the feet when setting wide stances. The entire thing is extremely durable, except the plastic lid for the bits, wrench and pipe. The pipe itself works really really well, as you can see from the photos above where it is being demonstrated, packed, with basis leaves and pencil shavings. The aforementioned plastic shield working as a built in wind shield during lift rides.

Lib-Tech Banana-Rocker Snowboards!

March 8th, 2009 by Board Sports1

banana-rocker

Here’s a fun new technology for snowboards, a banana-rocker that supposedly helps you to float better in powder while achieving better turns.  You can get these boards at Lib Tech.

This has several effects: It helps boards float a bit more in powder and over choppy snow, pivot the entire board between the feet for quick slash turns, make the ends less accidentally catchy, and precurving the board’s ends in an arc that allow the board to carve well when you lean over enough. It gives the overall board a very free feeling, like a surfboard or park board with no edges, but let you carve when necessary when you put the board up on its side.
