"Hello, my name is Bill Kaschner, we're here at Cream City Skateboard Park in Butler, Wisconsin, today I'm going to teach you how to do a half cab kickflip. A half cab kickflip is done while riding Fakie on your skateboard, Fakie is riding backwards. So what you're going to do is, when you're riding backwards on your board, Fakie. You're going to have your foot in the kickflip position, your other foot back on the tail, then you're going to want to do a half cab motion which is a 180 Ollie. And when you're going, you're going to do the kickflip and the board is going to turn in the air, then you're going to land in right away. So once again, you have your feet on the board, you want to kick out, the boards is going to flip, and come on down and land on it. When you try the half cab kickflip, try to do it in one motion. When you're Ollie-ing, Ollie and kick out at the same time, when you're doing it. You're going to Ollie, kick out, flip the board, turn your board and your body at 180. Hop on the board and just cruise away, cruise away like you're on the strip. Bill Kaschner with Cream City Skateboard Park, thanks for watching."
