    This made me feel so much better about my progression. Ive been able to kickflip for 7 years but they never looked pretty. I've decided to reteach myself to kickflip, put my ego aside and watch tutorials again, even after skating for 13ish years. I had a bad habit just like Dan, and always flicked to early and out instead of forward and delayed. Relearning muscle memory is a challenge. Great video. They already feel better!

  • @FreneticZetetic
    @FreneticZetetic 2 роки тому +9

    "It's an ollie North with a flick", and "I''m doing them wrong but thinking right" is so spot on. Dan nailed it here. I feel we learn the kickflip based entirely around popping then just kicking, instead of leveling out THEN kicking. The former is what causes issues with kickflipping over and off stuff, I've found; there's no real technique you're just getting lucky. This helped immensely! Same age as you, Dale. Skating since 2000.

    • @FloatDown
      @FloatDown 6 місяців тому

      This isn't right tho. If you wait until you're leveled out to flick, it's too late. You have to flick midway into your pop/jump, through the nose, and that levels the board while it still has upward momentum.

  • @Shoefae
    @Shoefae 5 років тому +7

    When I used to skate with my friends I was always telling them that this is the way to get kickflips proper. Flipping off of the side may be easier to get it around fast, but it will never be as clean and consistent as flicking your toes from the top corners, more of a diagonal. Getting that back foot up and out of the way also really helps with positioning the catch and lifting the board, just like he said. I like to think of it like when you're learning the sliding your front foot forward part of an Ollie, focusing on levelling it out on your way to the flip.

  • @AnthonyTran

    • @huihuihuihuihuihui1
      @huihuihuihuihuihui1 5 років тому +9

      It is because you've probably learned them more later than your regular kickflips when you was not as experienced in board control and probably learned inefficient muscle memory because of it

    I know exactly the struggle with that, I have rolled my front ankle a thousand times and my kickflips just don't feel right.
    People tell me that they look fine and I should be happy with them but I don't care how it looks when I skate, all I care about is how it feels and when something feels sick that's the best feeling ever and that's basically what's skateboarding is about for me.

    Started skating from the time I could walk. Like I was on a board as early as 3 and then I stopped a few years ago around 17. I’m 21 now getting back into it and I lost EVERYTHING besides how to ride and my Ollies. It sucks and re-learning is hell because it’s even harder now. My kickflips used to be spot on, clean and steezy every time. I’m glad I found this video. lesson to be learned here kids: DONT STOP SKATING IF YOU LOVE IT UNLESS YOU HAVE A DEVASTATING INJURY OR SOME SHIT. Seriously, I thought it would be like riding a bike coming back but it’s almost like I’m starting brand new and it almost kills your motivation.

    A really good kickflip is the best feeling flip trick. That and a good 360 flip Crazy how that spot looks so incredibly fun that first spot looked when anyone else wouldn't give it a second look. I mean obviously if you don't skate you aren't looking at that sort of thing but still. Aside from the flat gap, just a few long grinded sections of curbs and a Manny pad. It's the type of spot you and your buddies go to warm up and end up staying there forever

    what helps me is doing moving ollies repeatedly back to back to back( no pushing inbetween) until i come to come to a complete stop and do 3 stationary ollies. Then when i attempt my kickflips they become more boned and my backfoot catches it and the front trucks dip lower then the back trucks. Trust me this works. It builds control.

    I personaly improved my kickflip by flicking more toward the nose of my board than on the side. So I flicked harder and tried to ninja it,
    Your backfoot needs to feel the board first, so when your front foot it still in the flick position!

    Still trying to relearn kickflips with the delayed flick with the Corrigan method, so hard to nail down the timing. Popping high and delaying the flick just ends up in half-flips every single time UNLESS I apply the trick of imagining an invisible "flip" button right in front and below the nose, which controls my flick and makes it faster.

    If I'm trying to go over something or just going crazy, I go off the noise for more height. Like you're dude Dan said "physics". You can pop harder an get higher. Dan's ninja-flips are SIC, like a Ollie North. Now when I go off the side it's a defensive side of skate, flat or a lucky ass line. Take this with a grain of salt, my old ass is mostly not landing anything but ollies.
