Kick Flip

1. When you ollie you would normally just kick your front foot out to the tip of the board and stop. Well on a kickflip you do an ollie but instead of just kicking to the nose you kick off the board and to the side a little bit.

2. You just do an ollie, but your front foot keeps on sliding to the nose of the board and off.

3. When your foot gets to the tip of the board kick it off to the nose and the side*.

4. *If you are goofy footed your right foot would go off the right side of the board. If you are regular footed, your left foot would go off the left side of the board.

5. When the board is spinning try to stay above the board. Then land on it.

6. Try starting with your back foot on the far tail, and your front foot on the back screws, get the spin down, then move your front foot closer to the nose. Another Tip: When doing the kickflip try bringing your foot close, but not all the way to nose, and then spinning it. It helps some people that can't ollie extremely high, to pull off a nice spin.
