Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

Skateboard.

Step1

Okay setting up to do your pressure flip is the second hardest part.
I always put my back foot in the middle of the board (your heel should be the only part of your foot on the board, the rest needs to hang off) Your front foot should be straight against the wheel.

Step2

Okay this is the hard part. push down with your back foot (this starts the flip) Then push against the wheel this is made possible due to your weight going off the board, you need to pull up as you push down and over.

Step3

If you do it correctly you should see the board do a FS Varial Heelflip under your feet with little effort. Landing is simple, just jump up over the board. So thats how to do a pressure flip.

Tips & Warnings

don't get angry with it, it's a complicated trick but will look good when you get it.
Learn on carpet first.
You will probably fall even with my help.
Don't do it while moving it'll lead to twisted ankles.

on 10/2/2007 It is so much easier to land this trick while moving. if you are moving while attepting the strick you can add more force to the trick and it wont look as sketchy and you will look way beter than you really are.
