fakie flip back tail

Not a new trick because I can do them normally, but I no-complied the barrier at my park which is the highest thing I've done it on, so that's neat!

Front heels. And nollie back heels. Front heels are weird.

Frontside pop shove it backside revert and getting closer to switch frontside 360s.

Learned switch front foot impossibles just dicking around the other day. They're surprisingly easier than I expected.

Nose stall to back losi on quarter pipes. Was trying to go to axel and fell into losi.
It felt kind of cool so I leaned them.

Relearned switch flips, and actually popping them decently this time around. Also got beanplants which are a lot harder than bonelesses for me.

Really close to getting fakie tres consistently, but I keep landing with both my feet on the nose of the board

I learned how to do legit popped pop shove its, feels good to catch them after getting a good scoop, gonna try to improve my switch ones next.

I learned varial heelflips after getting stoked on seeing Reynolds do em, landed a couple and then tried to do lean them fakie but had trouble rolling away, really fun nonetheless, I've never really been a heelflipper but stoked to give it a go.

I've probably done less than 10 heelflips in my life and never fakie, but I love all the other variations. Varial heel is probably my best trick.

Well, i'm with you. I'm not that bad at normal heelflips tho, but i was a lot better when i was younger. I still can do'em but i kinda lost them, I struggle a little to land one. Varial Heels in other hand are so much easier to me, and probably my best trick too.

Learnt SW FS Rocks recently and have been thrashing them so much they've become easier than regular ones for me.

Anyone else have that happen to them?

I was grinding sappy crooks the other day and I'm SO close to 360 flips. Got half-cab flips back which I am stoked on!

Learned switch front heels recently. I'm getting close to switch backside bigspins, but I can't quite get the scoop for them.

Barley grind and barley grind 180 out. Hyped that I'm still learning legit new tricks in my 30's. Was trying to do them switch after, don't have them yet, but stay tuned....

Got any tips on how to sit on that one? I've been trying to work on my ledge/rail tricks, but can't seem to figure out where to keep my feet planted.

Olabade · « **Reply #3924 on:** May 31, 2016, 10:44:38 AM »

Frontside krooks. Finally. Feels so good. Basically didn't do anything else today once I figured it out. Ive done it before but could only land like one out of ten and most of the time I would lock into a nosegrind first and then tweek it into krooks. Sixpack well deserved. Now im only missing bs nosebluntslide from the ledge basics.

I kinda turned my front foot inward a bit, and set up like I was going for a boardslide, and kinda aimed my front truck while trying to have the lip of my board hit first, then lock in the truck- not like a boardslide to barley, its just like a millisecond on the way down. Also, 180 out is easier- landing them to fakie was seriously throwing my balance off, and the ones I got that way were far from perfect, but the 180 ones were going smooth at the end. For the record though, my advice might be terrible, its just what worked for me.

How do you hold the grind after turning? For me, the turn makes it feel nothing like a smith/switch smith once your truck hits. I can 180 switch 5-0 to switch and regs like its nothing so naturally I've tried these a few times but cannot lock in properly for the life of me.

I'm so close to front crooks, I can lock in and pop out of one once every 10 or so tries, but I usually pussy out and take my back or front foot off (they seem to pop off way higher than bs crooks). Got any tips for locking in consistently?

Olabade · « **Reply #3929 on:** June 01, 2016, 07:08:39 AM »

I keep all my weight on front foot toes and straight on top of the ledge (no lean away from the ledge) and toes are pointing backwards while shoulders are still straight (shoulders the same way as bs tail or fs boardslide). Also I set up with my whole front food on the board even toes slightly hanging off and try to position my foot in the pocket when I lock in.
