Okay this is a good skateboarding trick that will look cool to all your friends. the board rotates 360 degrees backside while doing a kickflip. It sounds hard but with practice it's easy.

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Skateboard
  • legs
  • be able to 360 shove and kickflip.
  1. Step 1

    This trick is kinda hard but gets easy with time. first up set your feet right. on the tail your toes need to hang off the tail a little (it'll help) now set up for a kickflip but set your foot at more of an angle. (make sure the ball of your foot is on the board for balance).

  2. Step 2

    Okay up next You're gonna wanna scoop the tail up and flip out and this will do the rotation/flip. First of all think Varial Kickflip but do the rotation harder. for those of you wandering what the scoop is, it's like doing a 180 degree pivot but you pop the tail at about 50 degrees in. so start to spin then pop. Okay for the flip do it at the same time you're board starts the spin. onto the next step.

  3. Step 3

    well first get good at spinning it. Okay now jump! stay right over the board and land it. it sounds simple but it isn't. but the only thing you can do is really just JUMP! okay well have fun. this is my first how to so tell me how I did.

Tips & Warnings
  • first of all if you think you're doing it wrong because the board is fliping and landing about a foot or two away, you're doing it fine. the 360 spin in the trick makes it go out really far. thats why you have to jump.
  • next up. keep the ball of your flipping foot on the board it will help you balance. and it doesn't make it any harder for you to do.
  • learn to do it while moving it isn't that hard I learned how to spin it stationary and while moving in about 4 hours.
  • if you have trouble still, ask a friend who can do it to help you out. skating with people is the best way to learn.
  • You will fall.
  • as in skateboarding you are probably gonna get hurt so don't be a hero get good first.
  • don't show off if you can't do it, you will be made fun of.
  • learn stationary first
  • it is extremely hard on carpet. try cement or anything flat and hard first.
  • don't be a hero bail if you're gonna fall.
