heelflip aka the poor mans kickflip
why do i call it that? because for the most part, those who can't do kickflips, end up doing heelflips. it doesn't help that they are almost always mobbed/rocket.
don't get me wrong, theres quite a few people that have a nice heelflip(i.e. the nuge) but the vast majority of people who do them make my eyes bleed. nollie heel, fakie heel and all 180/360 variations are tolerable, its just the straight heel and the switch heel that kills me on the inside. the heelflip is hideous and should be banned from skateboarding, or at the very least, the people with ugly ones should stop doing them.
