"I started starting yesterday"
"You learn any tricks yet?"
"only one... just switch heelflip"
When I skated, the switch heel was my easiest trick lol. I could hardly Ollie up a curb but I would stomp switch heels for some reason. It always felt natural compared to anything else for me.
*ADHD*
lmao
Mike shake is a legend and it’s so cool how he learns those skills so fast
Mike Boyd was 10-13 years old during the peak of Skateboard popularity in Scotland, no way in hell was he new to skating.
1st guy is changing his clothes more in 4 hours than a regular person in a week.
I didn't even notice 💀
I guess it's many sessions that do not amount to 24h??? :/ if so it was pretty misleading
its just the total time he's spent trying the kickflip
@@thomma303 sure... just dont record the other 100+ hours... put a 4h timer in the corner and you are good to go...
sorry. but i dont believe that at all.
@@hoebertrabeck1621 ?
Ricky! Thank you so much for putting out content like this. I know things are hard rn - this helps me. I'm a new skater and look up to you a lot and appreciate you still being here. Love your work brother
Honestly as a kid it took me a good year at least to kickflip 😅 & I can do them, but I still feel like I'm trying to perfect them 💯
took me 2 years i only learnt them last year
@@boofheadmophead But you learned them! 😤🔥 Keep grinding 🤙🏼
It took me 6 months but that day I learned a tip that let me commit it was “keep your shoulders straight” because I kept swinging my body for a kickflip and I landed a kick flip right there on the spot tried stuff I was working on I had all the flips down for tricks but could figure out how to commit I learned heelflips, varial kick flips, big spins, and skated all night until I got half an flips. my friends saw me a week later after not seeing me for a month a day or two before I could kick flip they always called me a poser behind my back and thought I was lying when I said I learned those tricks and I was trying tre flips for a few days and they thought I looked dumb for trying a trick over and over again that seemed impossible for me to land but we played a game of skate and I landed the tre they called toe touch when I didn’t so I did it again and three more times I had it down. they quit skating. I recently started again and I’m so close to doing hard flips i landed a few today I can do them switch and do nollie big spin hardflips but normal ones always felt impossible.
skankhunt keep it up man!! i feel like the people you were hanging around before were the real posers. props to you for staying persistent!
Mike Boyd’s a legend I genuinely believe this man could learn anything (literally anything) in a fraction of the time most average folks would be able to.
Took me a year to kickflip lol and to see people learn this fast is insane they should keep it up because no matter the age or gender... at the end of the day if you can put your mind towards it, you can go for it, have you guys seen the old man who started to skate what a badass.
It took me almost a year too. Well I actually learned to heel flip first lol those have always been easier for me.
@@zaccampa4055 learnt heel flip first too lol but now I've lost them a little due too a broken toe lol
I dont mean to shit on these people at all, but the way they are doing kickflips is pretty disconnected from actually skating. If you watch a few tutorials and give it a few hundred tries chances of sticking one or two kickflips standing still are pretty good I think but thats fucking miles away from doing one while riding and rolling away comfortably
@@schwanzkopf400 Yeah broo I know what you're trying to say, you aint shittin on these people lol 😎🤙🏻
@@schwanzkopf400 however there is still the issue of fear and commitment its not as simple as watching some videos and giving a few goes but if you do go try and come back revise these vids and that all...basically just practice. 🖤🤙🏻
I landed quite a few kickflips the first day back in 1988. Heelflip I learned even faster .. by that week I was doing them rolling. It's a variable for each person. Then most of my friends could do kickflips that month kinda through osmosis.. you see others doing it and you just pick it up.
The only flip trick I ever learned in one day was pressure flips when they first came out. How unfortunate is that? I would’ve preferred my kickflips came that fast.
@@AMMAZZARE haha no love for the pressure flapper?? LOL - they can be done with great effect ! Yeah that is one you can pick up pretty easy.. I remember when I was doing them straight .. like a back foot kickflip - I thought that was pretty rad at the time - it's kind of an optical illusion..there's a modern name for that type of pressure flip but I forget the name
@@AMMAZZARE hahaha i have never learn how to pressure flip, man i was not even practicing my hardflips
Hello 👋
Hi
Yo
yo
Yo Ricky! Hope your knee recovery is on a good way ;D
cheers
the issue was, he was content and comfortable pushing mongo which is 100% okay and can be corrected later on.
but this social stigma against pushing mongo is literally preventing this person from performing better than he could.
he was off on his pushing because he didnt feel comfortable putting his pushing foot on the front of the board. and thats why his trick position was different than his push position.
most people have a dominant hand and a dominant foot. people who are more active and do more sports naturally become more ambidextrous with their feet.
the issue is that his dominant foot is what he felt comfortable both pushing with and putting weight on.
but the social stigma against mongo pushing (which is only a bad thing because it supposedly didnt look cool on video) diego butchierra used to push mongo in regular skating.
but hey, i guess mongo some how holds you back? arent we not supposed to care how skateboarding looks?
mongo doesnt effect your skating and can arguably be the better pushing style. and it honestly is the better pushing style. it ways better in the pro vs con section when you really add it up.
one of my best friends was the living embodiment of a mongo skater. but the "restrictions" on mongo pushing didnt apply to him. and has actually brought me back into it in some scenarios when mongo pushing is actually better for a spot.
just let people push fucking mongo and dont talk about it. its like when adults make comments when a boy and a girl are innocently playing together "oh, is that your bf/gf are you gonna get married"
nah, just let people enjoy them self. and step in with some guidence and commentary that actually matters. instead of putting your personal opinions and peer pressure on others. especially people that are impressionable. like people you are teaching to skate.
end this stupid fucking mongo shit. all it does is prevent skaters from progressing faster in a way they feel comfortable.
i wasnt expecting this rant, but man it just blows my mind seeing somebody comfortable on a board mongo. then turning into a new born horse after being told "the right way to walk"
nah, let the new born animals learn to walk on their own. than teach them to survive and thrive.
That feeling u get when u land the very first one...
My friend who skated a month ago learned how to kf in 2 weeks, so i think the better people you skate with the better you get
i LOVE ricky reactin to stuff hahah
i just got back into skating after 13 years off. only skated for a couple years when i was in highschool and never could kickflip. within a couple days back at it ive finally got them. this kid at the skatepark gave me like 2 really helpful cues and landed 2 within like 10 min. super satisfying. now to keep grinding them into submission
I HIGHLY doubt that someone can learn a kick flip in one day. You wouldn’t even have a solid understanding on how the board reacts to your feet in one day.
In a month or two MAYBE but certainly not one day.
Two words:
"Tony Hawk"
And "kickflips"
(3 words)
Hey, bro. I just wanted to send you some good energy. You're awesome and I believe in your forward progress, despite the upcoming surgery. All the best, brother. Thanks for everything.
The celebrations when the first flip is landed are the best. 🔥😍🤗 I still remember the feeling💙
I’ve been riding skateboards in one way or another (longboards penny boards) since I was about six I learned how to Ollie around 10 probably but I didn’t take skating seriously until I turned 19, I just passed 4 years of dedicating time to skating parks and learning flat ground tricks. I feel more comfortable than most on the board and I still can’t kickflip consistently. I’ve landed plenty over the years! But it’s not something I can pull in a game of skate. Point is it doesn’t matter! Have fun!
the 3rd guy is most fun to watch, from he saying 'goofy or mongo', to his homie tighten the truck so much on the background,
and the 2nd guy is most real i think, looks like me cause i am beginner too
I'm pretty sure mike had some skateboard riding experence in the past but didnt do much if any flip tricks, so his comfortability of having his feet on the board and knowing how it moves helped drastically. This is also something I've seen with me and my friends who engage in another hobby called fingerboarding (finger skateboarding), since the movements are exactly the same to real life skateboarding (positioning and everything) we found that once we got comfortable on our skateboards that learning flip tricks wasn't that hard.
We learned most of our tricks consitently after about 2 weeks, far from mastery but close enough. Which was usualy the amount of time it took us to learn a trick on fingerboarding.
The biggest tip is not being afraid to commit, if you commit you'll land it faster and you aren't going to get the injures you think you will if you learn how to bail out of a trick properly.
one skateboard trick not taught enough is how to fall
Also watching skateboarding content helps a shit ton
nah he said that he had never been on a board before in his video
Daaamn! Doing a heelflip instead of a kickflip for the first time not knowing the difference happened to me too!! 🤣🤣 and I also learned varial kickflip waay before kickflip, don't really know why but the varial motion was more easy as I was more comfortable doing shove its 😅
Same here. I could never get my front foot back on when I would try kickflips. Then I learnt varial flips and ended up landing my first kickflip on the same day!
Crazier shit has happened in history. Mike boyd already had an athletic background and the skill of not quitting and that determination.
No way - is that opening shot of Ricky skating St Kilda foreshore!?
My home training grounds of Bayside, Melbourne - too cool
Haha yeah it is, sick!
I Learned How To Kickflip In 1 Second... 🤣
I once taught a guy to do a kickflip in like 20minutes, i swear on all that is holy... He was kind of a circus freak tho, like he did some line balancing acts, so he was probably the perfect student, but still my jaw was on the floor when he landed it 20 minutes after not knowing which way the board was supposed to flip...
Wow thats really cool, in always wanting to find people like this, nice job!
I learned to kickflip in 1 day around 5hrs and I think the thing that really helped was being comfortable on your board and learning the basic tricks and fundamentals, also commit to the landing most of your practice ones where you jump off you could've landed if you committed, that's how I thought about it at least which made me commit more. Also everyone learns at different speeds so if you try to learn a trick a commit a whole day into it and don't get it just keep trying.
I had a VHS player (just dated myself here) that could play slow motion. So I use to watch skate videos in like half speed to see what pros did with their feet. It's how I learned most of my flip tricks. Especially hard flips and tre flips.
"interesting foot position" actual perfect foot position. love a kicky up top. nice snap, that thing will levitate
I havent skated in 18 or so years and that "goofy and mongo" part killed me
Dude I love Braille but your videos just hit different 🤍🤍
Thanks! Lets keep it going on this channel
This is actually super motivating me to learn switch flip
Really interesting video, love your videos!
i had the problem of pushing regular and doign tricks goofy so i had to train to push goofy
Love this content!
Imagine if these guys were to continue!
1st guy 5 hr =5 days
I have my old skate videos and I wasn't scared of crap. Now I am terrified of pushing the board. How to go from switch 360 boardflips or rail slides and crooked grinds to being scared to push a board?
Nice pivot into content Ricky!
Quality content as always
Hey ricky i have a question abt kickflips so im learing and i wanted to know how i can stop my back foot from flicking outwards instead of inwards so i can land it i can flip the board just not land on it any tips?
3:20 BROS ANKLE HAD RECOILE
at 2:00 I thought that was big uzi walker for a second haha
NO WAY HIS NAME HAD BEEN MIKE SHAKE THIS WHOLE TIME. BROOOOO I been reading it as milk shake for the last year
lol i also started landing varials before kickflips
Skateboarding is so hard, I’ll learn a yo-yo trick in 3 hours,and then it takes me 2 months to learn to Ollie.
for the first guy it didnt technically take him 5 hours bc if you pay attention he changes clothes and thats bc he basically counts all the hours he does in days kinda? so he couldve taken 5 days but he would say its 5 hours bc he couldve done an hour of practicing each day for 5 days so he didnt technically learn it in 5 hours in one day its 5 hours divided into multiple days depending on when he practiced and for how long
the first guys clothes change like every shot hahha even difrferent shin pads
It's funny compared to the Braille shoe kickflip test, when a guy tears a hole before one kickflip haha. Great vid!
I knew one guy..he did all the hardest Tricks after 3 month of skating.
For example Kickflip BS Tailslide on high Curbs or any flip trick regular,nollie and switch on flatground and downstairs
So i seen people with natural talent learning very fast
that ren a stimpy grip tho! daaam! 🔥
11:16 crazy how it’s a switch flip 😂
mans learned a switch heel in 22 hours ☠️
Sheeee rip 🪦 to all my mango homies 😮💨
Nice video, my favourite one was mike shake's, he make great videos
I actually learned how to do switch kickflip and switch frontside flip in one day LOL
first guy basically doing late flip lol so sick
that was the wierdest heelflip ive ever seen
2023 we only doing straight legged tricks, no bending the knees, all in the ankle busters
Mike shake looks like he is doing a pop shuv at the back foot
7:32 no way I've been to that skatepark its just down the road from me. pretty sick park actually
Lmao I've been trying to land a rolling heelflip for over a year 💀
I accidentally learned kickflips when I was learning to ollie.
My foot naturally wants to flip the board. Or it used to, haven't skated in a decade plus just ordered a new board.
2 stances
Goofy and mongo.
Congrats to these people landing a kickflip or heelflip. But I don’t like the focus on learning it fast. For me, landing a new trick is just as important as the journey and the learning itself. Or maybe I’m just jealous and it just takes me a really long time to learn things. 🤔
I remember trying to learn kickflips in a McDonald's parking lot when I was like 8 years old. I did the same thing he did and bent my body over really far while landing and snapped the board up and hit my face. It split my lip open and had to get it glued shut. Still have the scar but now it's covered by a mustache lol
Honestly great video
im super comfy on a board with drop ins and shitty like kick turn style carving but i could learn a kickflip this fast
I'm gathering all these guys who ollied on the 1st day played a lot of football
am I gonna have to be the one to bring up the song at 1:16
I started kickflipping when I was born!
Thks Ricky
Man, these guys get the flick down in hours whereas I still can't figure out the dang flick! My body always tries to flick down! In my head, as I'm doing it, think it is flicking up! I watch the tape, nope, flicking down 😥😥
keep shreddin 🤘
knew a dude back in the days who only was able to do a pop shoved. if tryed to land a varial heelflip with a friend and the pop shoved dude just startet to try it with us. 2 hours later the pop shoved dude land the damn varial heelflip and we didnt ... that was weird af i can tell
Great video
landing 1 or 10 doesnt mean much. I dont think mike boyds videos fake just cause he landed 1 in 5 hours. I landed a perfect heelflip on concrete in 10 mins of trying but i still cant do them consistently to this day (I did learn kickflips and other tricks before trying heelflips though). I think I would consider fully learning kickflips if you can land 10 in a row
Think long and hard about that micro fracture surgery. It made my knee much worse from a similar injury.
Sometimes the choice is ending up with a weak knee that you can somewhat use, or a knee that's not had surgery and can no longer function normally. Unfortunately, 'not doing surgery' often isn't a real option. But yeah, I've heard similar stuff to your story about knee surgeries. Sorry to hear that man.
The buzz feed dude admitted he had damaged and always wanted to kick flip but couldn’t, so it makes sense.
eh idk man, people act like anyone who progresses fast is some kind of prodigy and that “they’re a natural” when in reality they just have the bigger balls and aren’t scared to commit. doing a trick is literally just an action and no one is magically born better than someone else at an action. it’s all how you commit to it. most of the time it takes people longer to progress because they have this mental barrier which is proven by the fact that when you do it once, it becomes much easier to replicate and then you think “why was i so scared of this? it’s easy”. i promise you just watch someone else do it, figure out the technique and then emulate it. you are just as capable as the guy that can do it, regardless of experience. just fuckin send it and don’t give a shit about hurting yourself or being embarrassed lol. sure you might not have steez, but that’s what comes with time. as soon as you get that mentality, you will progress so much faster
fun fact: i've been watching mikeshake since he started youtube :))
i have only landed a kickflip with on foot on the board I could never land with two feet and one attempt I landed in a way that ended up pushing the wheel on my foot and it hurt yea that was like in like 2010 I haven't skated in a long time now
LOL these videos kinda bum me out. It took me sooooo long just to learn to be able to really ollie high and with control, and even longer to kickflip. But emphasis on "learn". When I was a beginner I could occasionally land fakie double-flips, but I was just kicking my board around really. And I could do some very bad kickflips and occasionally land them. Emphasis on "land". When I do kickflips now it's totally different, I'm doing them with technique and control. Still only land them about half the time lol. Oh well whatever works I guess, prob just jealous I didn't progress this fast...I didn't really try, I had my little bag of tricks and just kinda stopped there, until lately I've been more motivated
I need help… I ride goofy but if I want to Ollie or something I would do I it regular what should I do
Bro it took me a fat minute to Ollie and I’m still trying to get better at it
Anyone peep that spot on Aaron Kyro impression 🤣
it took me maybe 6 hours over 3 days to learn how to kickflip
its funny how the 3rd guy was training nollie heelflips and tdidnt even know
these people the romell guy learned how to skate goofy and do tricks regular. i think he’s gonna pull out the skateboard 1 day and realize and change from goofy to regular
First guy and multiple others.. I can’t really call that a “kickflip”.
2nd is smart, cause learning to Ollie is important to do a proper Kickflip.
8:07
his friend: spread your legs
Skate board guy: the fuck you just say look on his face
Homeboy can't roll but can switch heel without popping
i have the videos when i learned kick flip in one day, i guess i did 75 attempts. i dont know how to edit but xd maybe i share all the videos here.
In one day as a skater or day one skating? But thats awesome! Well done!
at the last guy it's possible bc, i swear to god i get the kickflip about 30 minutes of trying it after learn an ollie
when i dont push mongo all my tricks are switch
i love this
pushing mango lol awwwww
Ah, the 2 stances, goofy and mongo. I’ve been skating regular since I was 5, and I’ve been standing wrong the awhile time! I thought I was regular but that clearly doesn’t exist.
Romell Henry does UA-cam on his own and with jay on tgf
