How to Flick a Skateboard Doing a Kickflip

Video Transcript

"Hi my name is Evan Blakenship with expertvillage.com and I'm going to be teaching you how to kickflip. So you got a good foot placement or feel comfortable when your going and kind of pop the board but your just not quit getting the right rotation. What you need to work on is the flick of your front foot so now you got your feet setup one foot on the tail, one foot right in front of the bolts. Now when you pop it right after you have to flick it and the flick it kind of like an ollie like once you pop it, you slide you foot forward but instead of going straight forward your off to the side and you flick it. Right about there right where the concave of your board is and what this will do is it'll make the board flip and level out the pop, and that will allow you to catch the board and land back on the bolts."
