"Hi my name is Evan Blakenship with expertvillage.com and I'm going to be teaching you how to kickflip. So now that you have a good foot placement and your comfortable rolling with and a good flick to spend the board around it's all about sucking your legs up and staying centered over your board. Alright so now that you popped your kickflip give it a good flick once it flips you got to stay centered of the board or else when you land on it, if your to far forward you'll shoot out to far back you'll end up shooting out. So you just got to stay centered over your board that way you can land back on it and roll away clean. And also you want to make sure that you suck your legs up cause if you don't it'll end up hitting you on the shin or just won't flip all the way."

on 8/5/2009 he tells you to suck up your legs (bring them up higher) so the board can flip. he also says you should stay over the center of the board so you can land on it

on 8/2/2008 Hey, sorry if this question was answered during your video but my computer doesn't have sound (long story). I'm 10 years old and I can get the skateboard to flip but I can't stay above it. As it ends its spin I'm usually just touching the ground. Could you please help me out? (it shouldn't have anything to do with my skateboard it's top of the line)
