Trick Tips

1.Ollie-First put your front foot right behind the first 2 bolts.Next put your front foot on the tail.Now you must push hard on the tail, and while doing so slide your front foot up and pick your back foot up at the same time you are sliding.make sure your board is level in the air and land with your weight even.Then ride away smooth.

Pop-Shuv-It=First put your front foot as if you are going to Ollie.Then put your back foot so that the heel is hanging off the side.Now puch hard on the tail and Ollie except this time you want to scoop you back foot behind you so that the board starts to spin.Next you need to pick both opf your feet up(i leave one foot on to guide the board).Wene the board does a 180 rotation put your feet on the boartd even your weight and ride away smooth.

Kickflip-First you need to set up in an Ollie positon except move your front foot off the side so that your heel hangs off.Now you need to Ollie but slide your front foot to the side at an angle unitll it eventually slides right off of the board.Mow the hard part for most beginners,picking your feet up so that they do not touch the ground or hit the board while it is rotating.Pick your feet straight up!Wait untill you c the griptape again,and hurry to put your feet back on it.Land with your weight even and ride away smooth.(This trick takes alot of practice if you don't get it the first time you need to try it everyday,wene you get home do it for about 30 minutes and keep doing it everyday unitll you can land it 80 percent of the time).

Heelflip-It is exacly like the kickflip except you ahve your toes off the opposite side ov the board and the rotation is away from you not towards you :).

Hardflip-First you need to put your feet in a ollie, kickflip, pop-shuv-it positon lol.Next you need to slam on the tail shuv it aand kickflipPick you feet up and spread them wide so that the board can past under your legs(better ollie high or ELSE!!!Then just land and ride away smooth(this one is hard hense the name hard flip)

180 Kickflip-First put you feet in a kickflip pop-shuv-it positon.Next wind your arms the opposite way you are going to spin then ollie pop and spin at the same time and constantly look for the grim tape.Wene you see that grip tape throw your feet on it lol.Land and ride away smoothly.

GRINDS=

Boardslide-the board slide is the first slide/grind you should learn to get used to the motion and is the easiest one to learn.First ride up to a rail,curb,box and ollie just high enought so that your front truck clears the pipe.Next you want you body to be straight but make you leags and feet give pressure to the back edge of the board so that it keeps the frontward sliding motion going.wene you reach the end of the rail you want to just twist your hips so that the board starts to turn and you will slide right off.(you ay want to try this trick on a ledge no higher than 1 foot and start out sliding the edge than move to the kiddle than even the whole rail like me).

50-50 grind-First you need to ride up to a legde at decent speed and you front part of your body hsould be going toward the rail,then just Ollie hihg enough so that your trucks make it over the rail and land on them.Once you are on the rail you want to stay centered.hopefully you should make it to the end....,once you do do a small ollie and turn slightly and it will pick you right off the rail.(if you try hard enough you might even fly!!!!).

5-o-First you need to ride up to the rail at an angle,Ollie up on the rail just like you would if you were doing a 50-50 grind except wene you get on the rail you need to put a little more weight on your back foot so that the front of the board rises up.This trick is easier if you keep your shoulders straight and not looking/facing forward.once you get to the edge of the rail kinda push your feet forward so that the trucks slide right off of the rail.this trick looks good on rails that go over pyramids.

lipslide-For this trick you will need to do exacly like you would if you were riding up into a boardslide,BUT instead of justollie onto the rail you want to do a 180 over the rail and land in a boardslide so that you are now going tho opposite way that you would be if you would ahve just ollied on.(i know my explanations are confusing).

Feeble grind-First you will need to ride into this trick as iff you were riding into a boardslide,but you will need to ollie hihg enough so that the back truck lands on the rail and the rest of the board is on the rail.This trick is hard to slide with becasue wene you ollie over you are leaning forwards them you ahve tobe leaning backwards after so that the board doesn't fly out from under you.Hey..., if you try like i said you might even fly!!

Smith grind-This trick is sorta like a lip slide and a feeble put together.First yuo need to ride up to the rail at an angle ollie over enough so that your front truck come back over the rail and your back truck lands on the rail,then after that its the same as a feeble.
