@astrobub now i tried landing it with one foot but when I try it I still only land one foot

[PatrickThomas11]

I can catch 10/10 kickflips one footed by catching with my back foot (Right foot, I'm regular)

As soon as I pop and flick my front foot goes straight to the ground!

So annoying and I don't know how to keep it in the air above my board.

If I try and keep it in the air and bring it back over my board I don't even end up flicking the board, I just end up doing a weird ollie.

Help please!

[420KushSmokin420]

[sk8punk25]

Can anyone tell me what shoes he is wearing?

[Multi123free]

@sk8punk25 vans shoes

[LegacyLoveMahone23]

i stopped skating for a while..but recently wanted to start again..soon im putting up skating videos to help out with my kickflip. but like when i kickflip it feels like im trying to actually push the board away, like scared of commiting to it but i really want to land it..i dont know if that has a name except for just not wanting to commit but yeah. if you could help out that would be awesome. :)

[Robloxpivs]

@dbspaceoditty Thats not true all the time, most people just tend to learn tricks before others. I learned a pop-shuvit 6 months before I could even ollie, its all about dedication. Some people learn heelflips first to get an advantage in to more difficult tricks. A varial kickflip will require the same push as a heelflip.

[dbspaceoditty]

ive been skateboarding for like fifteen years and leanred how to kick flip like four years ago. that being said i had a fat bag of tricks and just could not kick flip. you should get a good heel flip video out. something i realized about skateboarders to hold true with most i know. goofy skaters are more common to do heel flips then kick flips and regular skaters do kick flips more....

my proof to this...almost every goofy skater i know learned heel flips first. regular skaters kick flips.....

[howardcjones]

I could only catch with my back foot plz help

[rumblenuts2112]

its because of this video that i learned how to kickflip today

[cloudliu]

this one is really helpful! liked & subbed!

[yattaman23]

You might be thinking, "Yes I know that, but I just can't get my foot back on." Well even when you think you might be flicking it right, your actually not haha. I said the key is to flick straight. By that I mean putting mostly all your focus on your knee. Make sure your knee goes completely straight. When you hit the concave, dont use you leg to kick out. Just keep your knee straight all the way and just use your ankle to flick straight out and up! I hope this helps. DONT GIVE UP!

[yattaman23]

Guys, listen up!!!!!!! I used to not be able to do a kickflip for a long time(a little more than an year). I had problems putting my front foot back on the board like many of you guys. Ok so let me say this straight. YOURE NOT FLICKING RIGHT. Even though you flip up and clean, the way you do it is different. One day my friend told me one tip and after I heard him I landed my first kickflip clean. The KEY is that when you flick, you have to fick complete straight and up. Contiues...

[Taco77Vidz]

I always flip the board and everything, but the only problem I have is bringing my front foot back, not above the board. FML

[imaproatripstiks]

i can Ex flip (kick flip with a body 180) but i cant regular kickflip any tips? (my body always turns when i try)

[Dobe29]

I either land a kickflip with me facing same way as the board, feet together and on the tail OR i the board does half 180. Tips?

[MrFredfredburgerguy]

i forget to flick and the board hits my nuts >_

[PatrickThomas11]

@MrFredfredburgerguy That's the worst! Haha.

[hasanmanzer786]

i cant land with my both feet i can get my back foot on but then like a second later by front foot come on and if i try wiht my front foot by back just falls help what should i do and also im landing graphic

[funkyduyman]

I got my ollies a bit good now but I'm still eager to learn the kickflip guess I'll try to do this tomorrow if I don't have too much homework to do

[JineCast]

hello i need to land kick flip i land it on my back foot clean and what can i do to land on it?

[Hatchetslinger13]

hey m name is william and i needhep with kickflips i mean like i got my heelflips down its just that i cant kickflip and i am just now wanting to learn how this video was really helpfull i kinda almost got them please reply to this see ya

[TheTutorialHubHD]

Hey Aaron, I've watched all your kickflip videos and I just can't seem to find the problem that I'm having. I used to be able to kind of kickflip and then I moved on to varial kickflips which I can almost land. Now when I try to do a normal kickflip I end up scooping the tail so it creates the shove it part of a varial kickflip. How can I do a kickflip without having my foot scoop the tail of the board? Thanks :)

[lilbill428]

my vid is in my channel check it out need help reply soon thanx

[cOntrAstEr99]

thank you for making this video now that i watched this and sum other vids im going to try it out thanx!

[KWeber38]

i land on the nose any tips?

[x1tzth4tk1dx]

if i try to keep my feet above the board(both) my flick is off can u plz help me?

[MrPhilthepot]

Most how to vids suck but man this vid was great and awesome it helped me out a ton i appreciate it dude thanks!

[MrMavsfan25]

Ya every time i Kickflip i can usually get the flip but just landing on it is difficult any tips to that. I hear it's a commitment issue but what does that truly mean?

[spik453]

@MrMavsfan25 you can't be scared to land and fall. you're probably not gonna get it down the first you and you might fall but after a while of doing it over and over you'll find out how to do it

[Cookmonster789]

aww yea goofy sonnnn

[delanostockhoff]

thanks that helped a lot

[513OGKush]

In phoenix we have 15 parks and ive been to 12 of them even paradise valley and desert west and foothills where they had the x games thing but anyway i wanna meet u aaron

[513OGKush]

Aaron u should come to pheonix az (thts where i live) But anyway I watch ur vids and skate every day and ur honestly my fav skater most my frnds dont even know who u r but i realy wanna meet u but its whatever i guess

[CriticalSkater]

@513OGKush I live in az too! I'm in Surprise. New skater.

[say9198]

Thank you very much, I really hate when videos just say "pop, flick, catch, and roll away". That isn't very helpful when you need a tip. You have helped me soooooo much, and I am practicing everyday. I keep landing with my front foot, now I am going to try to land with my back. Hopefully in the next 2 months I will put both feet together and roll away:D

[sup3rFl1]

every time i kickflip my board only spins half way help me!!!

[TheLeeandAlex]

@sup3rFl1 put your foot further back on your board and make sure you drag your board back. that drag helps the motion and keep it under your feet

[dru12121]

does having looser or tighter boths help?

[Trexeleus]

Thnx , Coz of this video I landed my first Kickflip !!

[MultiJester123]

that was a very detailed explanation of a kickflip. i normally do my ollies with my foot in the middle of the board. and i have been trying a kickflip with my front foot in the middle. do you think this would work? or should i follow you and kickflip from under the front bolts?

[TheLeeandAlex]

Thanks, this video has helped me quite a bit but i think i just need to keep practising everyday to get them down. Cheers again.

[TheTitanProductionz]

Hey would you mind uploading tutorials for heel flip and tre flip as well?

[compvids2]

thank u sooooooooo much this help me alot! =)

[Dsrandomdude]

Thank you soooo much

[MrJonjon2010]

[85DungPlease]

every time i try to kickflip my board kicks out..

[TheGEETAJ]

Goooofy..



[skunkfacehyde]

This was an excellent video, very detailed. I couldn't figure out how to flick my foot properly but because of this and little bit of practice I now have my kickflips down. Thank you very much, I hope to see more.

[Aleesunespia]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!! I HAVE 6 FUCKING MONTHS TRYING KICKFLIP AND I CANT I WILL NEVER DO A KICKFLIP DDDDDDDDD:

[ComedicRetards]

[Kich548]

[YourPersonalEditor97]

[fairfulleuan]

[partygogoland]

Dude ur gonna hate mee for this ...... i still dont get how to land on it i can get the rotation almost everytime, but it always lands in between my legs nd my legs r not on the bored they are like on the sides... im fine with the rotation i just dont have enough time to get my feet back in nd i dont understand why nd if this is confuseing let mee knooo ahaha i can send a vid response showing u wut happens everytime if that wud help but i hope u can like help me ahahaaa

[speaker54312]

@partygogoland I had that problem too! To fix it you need to keep your shoulders squared over your board and you will land them easier.

[partygogoland]

@speaker54312 o ok thanks dude! btw ur vids are awsome

[partygogoland]

@speaker54312 heyy lmao i thought u were the maker of the vid

ahah but yea thanks

[ForestedLands]

[RebelArmz911]

@Kyl3Ingram that means you not flicking in the right spot

[RicardoMetal99]

i land with my feet together and my back foot land on the tail so i fall

some times my front foot land under de board

[sneeblefrog]

@Kyl3Ingram lean over the nose

[killaboomer]

is my flick wrong because the white part of my shoe that i flick with is completely worn out unlike yours it seems you you the fabric part does it matter

[Petetheqreat]

your awesome

[smally432]

thanks man

[Vengeance789]

This is one of the best constructed videos for beginners. Keep em up.

[Trexeleus]

Wow, your kickflips are so clean, like every kickflip in this video!!!!

[bajesus666]

ive been skateboarding for a looong time. i still cant get kickflips 100%, but i can nail heelflips higher than my ollie

[iRideMongo]

Thanks man. I've been skateboarding for a while (1 year) and all i get is one foot landings for nearly every trick. (kickflips, tres, heels, kick/heel varials) I always thought it was dedication messing me up, but im gonna try what you said in this video. :D

[sk8RYAN321]

what if u cant stay in the air and u can only do it with ur back foot please resopnd

[ocoombes1]

thanks man this helped so much, I got kickflips down today :)

[youngprince0916]

thank you sooo much..i win everysingle game of skate when i do kickflips like this

[devoe5121]

that helped A LOT!

[IanGracia]

Best tutorial on youtube :)

[jheymsz07]

@TheJamik28 don't kick it just flick it :D

[Solskate13]

Thaaaaaaanks :)

[souljaboii890]

thanks man im like the most pro in my school now that i can kickflip

[optic1099]

@souljaboii890 do u go to like primary school or something?

[TheT00thpaste]

dude thanks man.

[AwesomelyKoolness]

I had the same problem but what I realized was I wasn't committing to landing the trick so I practiced on grass and now I can land them. So to all the people who are just a bit scared of falling and getting hurt, try it on grass. Trust me it helps you out a lot more then you think. Hope that helps! :D

[souljaboii890]

@AwesomelyKoolness i tried on grass too ad now i like almost mastered them

[PureRealityz]

thanx man :D

[QCRaptor250Riider99]

hey what deck brand are you riding?

[greenbhpk]

@Kyl3Ingram then ur bailing when u kick flip, when you kickflip you have to not be afraid of falling, if you try to kick flip and u land on it wrong and you fall then u know ur actually trying, if it just goes out and u barely jump ur not really trying

[Burnieceproductions]

ok, ive got a really unusual problem, i get the perfect flip pretty much everytime, but i ALWAYS land with my toes on the ground, and my heels on the board and my board isnt flat it balancing on 2 wheels on my toe side. i dont know if im explaining this well, but can someone please help me? i swear ive tried everything. ive tried jumping straight up, ive tried leaning back, in the grass, not moving, moving, catching it upside down, catching with one foot, i cant seem to figure it out. plz help!!

[Prbasss]

@Kyl3Ingram then maybe youre hitting the nose to much , you really have to aim for the so called "pocket" curve next to the nose :)

[xXEpicOwnageXx]

I got kickflips down :D

[TheCoolkai123]

Need help the board goes way in front of me when I try a kickflip

[gonzskater]

@Kyl3Ingram Heyy! All You need to do is even your weight out. Don't lean to far forward or too far back! If your board goes in front of you your leaning to far back. Just even your weight out buddy! Works every time! ;) Hope I help!

[jaicobward]

at 3 minutes it looks like he is holding madusa's head

[gibs9105343]

lol started doing kick flips and some how changed to a heel flip but landed some of my heel flips and some kick flips wtf lol pleas could some one have a look at my channel at my so called kick flip that are really heel fips and tell me what i am doing wrong keep getting my heels of my food on the board ???????????????

[cradleofjohannes]

I have everything down including the flick, only problem is that i usually catch the board with my backfoot but my FRONT foot always lands to the side of the skateboard. Whats the problem? Is it chicken legs? Or is it a matter of centering myself to the board?

...i'll try to make a video & send it to ya

[jcdude8310]

wow dude thanks this is probably the best kickflip video i have ever seen

[nicash0rty]

yea can you make a heelflip video

[ycrosby99]

can u put up a video on how to heelflip plz

[enjoi971]

@MaryJewWanna Im glad youre excited to try again but youre definitely overthinking it. Pop the board and flip at the perfect time together and make sure your foot placement is solid so you can land it clean while moving. Always practice tricks moving, even if its slowly. Imo its harder to learn/ do them standing still

[MaryJewWanna1]

@enjoi971 thank you for the tip

[MaryJewWanna1]

YOU ARE AWESOME!!! ur the only person who really broke it down i hurt my ankle tryin to do it and now i know exactly what i did wrong i cant wait to get back on and try it another trick i learned is to set the board in front of you and (not on the board) do the kickflip motion 3 times making sure u land right then get on the board and do exactly what you did on ground without thinking too hard about it and you should do it this helped allot of people good luck all happy kickfliping!!

[eleventy500]

@Kyl3Ingram

pop your backfoot to the back, and slide your front foot maybe less strong

[Burbandas]

@Kyl3Ingram that means that you are flicking it to strong. try to flick it to the side, not to the front. sorry for bad english(:

[halocell]

do a backside flip trick tip there isnt a single legitimate one on youtube

[BryantGCartagena]

i love your videos man but make them shorter and sweeter strait to the point much love

[XxMvSk8eRxX]

@Kyl3Ingram when your flicking your catching to much of the nose which throws your board in front of you

[derrykinz]

@Kyl3Ingram jump forward with the board

[iWannaRib]

do wider decks make it harder to kickflip?

[SMV600]

@iWannaRib the the actual flip, until 8 or 8. 2 i dont really think it makes that much of a difference but the weight of the board will affect the height and spin of the board, if your getting a wider board try not to get one thats much heavier if you are into doing flip tricks.

[bemdav]

@Kyl3Ingram I fixed this by kind of pulling with my back foot. Just pull it back, not sure if it's the correct way of doing it but it helped me...

[jazl10]

thumbs up if u r goofy!

[alexskates44]

@Kyl3Ingram it means your flicking the nose, take a video of yourself doing a kickflip, slow mo, and compare it to his.

[howyadoin434]

360 flip explained should be next

[calebsoukhamneut]

i can land it, but on grass only. Usually when i land on concrete it is luck

[t00swagg]

Almost landed it 2day slipped out

[Momo66342]

New ollie tutorial please

[moca10x]

i can kick flip now but when i land i always tap but im landing them often

[brandenissp00n]

so do we send the vid as a video response or just message you and attach the vid?

[MemeZero14]

im been skating for 3weeks know and abt 2weeks i couldnt get kickflip right i could spin the board but it will jump front and not under me and after 3weeks i started to land it 3time , tnx Aaron xD

[alfiejakedavis]

I'm going to practice getting my front foot on, the only ever time I've landed one is when I focused more on getting it on, I just realized.

[oscaroscar123123]

you sound just like Nigel Alexander, nkalexander7 :)

[zowgoe]

@oscaroscar123123 nah shane o'niell

[zowgoe]

Respond to this video... hippy jump the yellow thing at 1:26 

[Zorlak010]

nice

[zooyorkchaz]

what if my board turns side ways

[KKMx93]

@zooyorkchaz keep your shoulders straight with the board

[zooyorkchaz]

@KKMx93 it still does tho

[CuawaKidCrew]

@Kyl3Ingram Then your kicking it away from you... Try to keep it under you xD it you think its hard, get your shoulders straight and just kick your front foot out... just think about that kicking the front foot out and dont flick to hard cause then u will trow your board away... xD

[Siksoldier18]

@Kyl3Ingram try keeping your shoulders in line with your feet, dont lean to far back just keep square over the board, try this out or if not , try to get more or a flick off the side of the board rather then higher up, hope this helps

[decan567]

But what if I don't get the full rotation but I catch it with my back foot what do I do

[5katestream]

That was brilliant thanks!

[TommyIDK]

Ty man that helped so much. ;D

[TheDevil0019]

thanks thta really helped :D
