back in the late 90s early 00 i was the absolute master at haardflips.i recently tried to set foot on a skateboard after 15 years and i can still do em (even tho i can barely ollie or kickflip).but i still got the hardflip
That’s how I currently am. I can hardflip up to my hip right now and it’s my bread and butter. Hoping when I’m 45 and my kids learning how to skate I can still pull that one out. 😂
This will deffinately make it easier for me to learn hardflip. I used to be able to get it around and land with one foot but i quit, got back into skateboarding 10-12 years later and i have no idea how i used to do it so easily
This is my favorite trick. If you toe the tail and stomp the pop, it will snap up to your front foot higher and faster for the catch. Hardflips are all about how you pop it.
Bro you’re the goat at explaining shit! I’m so close to hardflip but no one in my crew does em so I’m stuck looking at shit tutorial! But low and be hold!!! Take this subscribe😂🤞🏽
it's way easier to hard flip if you put your back foot in a treflip position -- not hanging off as much but definitely on that side of the board instead of on the heel side or the board. dead ass go try it and and lemme know. a lot more control will be able to take it to obstacles not just flat ground.
those are great looking hardflips, well beyond my skills as of yet but it still looks doable. I love the fact that they have sort of an impossible look to them
I was learning frontside flips years ago I found committing the front don't to land was huge mental fear. After I did a frontside flip n didn't rotate body ended up doing a weird hard flip suddenly learnt hard flips quickly after frontside flips.
i always acuated & told friends how i flciked was like a fish hook in my front foot flicked at a slight downward angel compared to a kickflip then up & back around (like a half circle) so my front foot landed first & on/close to the front bolts. but i seem to do them different than you and most people; allowing the full rotation as i catch it, not landing in the air @~90° then finishing the rotation as i come to the ground as i see most people do hence i almost always do fs/fakie hard/fs flips the muska way. wish i could do em like that as i think id be able to gap much farther. swich/nollie otoh i cant seem to get the flick/flip even though I'm better at switch flips/pop fs shuvs. ill take what you taught & maybe ill finally be able to do them nollie/switch.
That slight turn to catch the hardflip as it rotates towards you was an eye opener. Looks rad and would be really helpful in knowing the trick is popped and getting caught proper.
I love when I fuckin get those swaggy like vertical hardflips where it's like doin a sacktap on Tony hawk with no hands slamming that shit down stairs is so cash
Daamn so fukin steezy. I use to be able to do this trick years ago now I'm back skating for 2 months and everytime I do it the board lands behind me. You're doing it a straight line it looks so fukin sick
how do you jump and land on the board? I can get the rotation and move my feet out of the way but it doesn’t rotate fast enough and it pops too high for me to land it.
Bro the trick to frontside 50-50 s on round rail is to make sure you going fast enough and to land on the rail as gracefully as possible. When you make contact with the rail you have to land light footed, if you're going too slow and you land hard on the rail that's when the board just topples off and you do a Primo. so go fast enough when you ollie onto the rail, Ollie just High Enough so you don't land on the rail vary hard. When you land on the real it should be like a waitlist kind of Landing and then if you're going fast enough you should be alright. I just thought of another good point it depends what kind of metal you're grinding on too, if you're grinding on any type of metal like aluminum or anything that's softer than your trucks are you're going to stick and eat s***. so you can only grind something that's going to be a harder type of metal then your trucks are made of like Steele obviously. But some hard plastics are really good for grinding too like certain benches and stuff. Hopefully that helps you a little bit with the round rails I think they're better to grind than square rails personally just smooth ER
brian ambs Just think about like your doing a 5050 on a ledge, trust me your wheels will lock in my easily, but than you can wear a helmet to build up your confidence to do it if that's the problem
I was always fascinated by the inward aspect to anything, and I wasn't offended by illusion flips (although hard_flops_ to me were kind of pushing the bounds of aesthetic/good taste). That being said, the flick is the foundation IMHO, and can mitigate a lot of that nut fear we face (as I type that he says 'flick' lol and then he does it again)
The "catch at 90 degrees" thing is weird. Ever since I've learned them they had full rotation, my nollie, fakie, and switch is all the same essentially.
I can't do a hardflip and I am amazed by people who can. You have to be an incredibly talented skater to even do one, let alone a really good one. If I'm being honest though, I don't think hardflips look good at all from a purely aesthetic perspective. It's like someone doing pushups with their tongue. Is it super impressive? Yes. Could I ever do it? Probably not. Does it look as graceful as a good kickflip? Not to me. With that said, I still wish I was talented enough to do a hardflip and if I ever learn how, I'll probably do them all the time.
Except the secret to that trick is putting your pop foot in the pocket which I don't do for regular heelflips. Also, adjusting your flick foot to its most comfortable point... There is a lot you could go over with that trick.
I learned frontside flips (the proper way not the musks way) recently. so when I do hard flips now it does a vertical kinda hardflip but I turn my body on accident. Any fixes?
My problem with hardflips is I can't flip them the right way like my flick is off & weird but @ the same time I can hardflip on a penny board but not on a regular board
I find inward heel flips alot easier than hard flips, i have inward heels pretty much every try but it is pretty much impossible to credit card on an inward heel. Everytime i try a hardflip i credit card
don't flick your foot like a regular heelflip (where your foot slides and flicks to the nose) flick your foot to the tail or straight forward sorry for my bad english
I had never properly tried this but I flicked one yesterday randomly and it flipped perfect and in about 2 mins I landed one that's the fastest I ever learnt a flip trick and I have it semi consistent, I think this trick feels really natural to me
If you don´t get your backfoot on and the board is right there where you could land it, it´s most likely a mental barrier you are struggeling with. There are a few things you could try: Try landing it with your backfoot only (what is, at least in my opinion, harder than the trick itself, but it might help), holding onto a handle bar, pause trying it for a week or so, then try it again.
It sounds obvious. but most of the time when I have landing with a trick it's because i am not keeping the board under my feet. When I focus on keeping the my feet above the board it helps. GL
I feel it's kinda disingenuous to say it's ALL in the front foot, it's MOSTLY in the front foot but I spent YEARS fucking up tre's because I was purely focused on my back foot. Then I injured myself and it became all about my shoulders.. now I've lost them again but yeah, you're trying to be as accurate as possible here
back in the late 90s early 00 i was the absolute master at haardflips.i recently tried to set foot on a skateboard after 15 years and i can still do em (even tho i can barely ollie or kickflip).but i still got the hardflip
wow, im jealous
that muscle memory is strong
I just started again after 12 years and I can kick flip forward flip and tre but can’t do any shoves or Ollie 😂😭
That’s how I currently am. I can hardflip up to my hip right now and it’s my bread and butter. Hoping when I’m 45 and my kids learning how to skate I can still pull that one out. 😂
I'm not gay but that's a good hardflip
Kobe Madsen how tf does that make u gay?
Dking_Angel cause it sexy af
Dking_Angel LoL HES HOMOPHOBIC LMAO DUUUUUDE NO HOMO RIGHT??!?!
Kobe Madsen it's ok if your are. Why would just say that. "I am not gay"
this hardflip made me gay
what helps me get the foot out of the way is pretending to do a frontside flip.
This is one of the coolest looking tricks tho (imo), thanks for the tutorial
Samuel Chaba it's my favorite to do
@@SSYabuddy is it still
@@pabopablo man. I wish I had time to skate as much as I did 4 years ago. I can still bust a hard flip out tho
landed my first 2 hard flips today because of this video, thanks man, on to inward heel
@ 3:13
"it's a whole new world when ur learning this trick..."
got dat right couldn't have said it better
why do you sound like chris chann?
Ahmad Sabara because he is Chris chann
We don't mention skate trend vloggers around these parts sir >:(
SKATE HACKS lol
Weird
SKATE HACKS LOL
the steez of this mans backfoot catch is out of this world
The best hardflip I have seen ever!!!
Dude you've improved your hardflip very well!
Congratulations!
Ok
I saw this video 1 and a half year ago and now hardflips are super easy for me:) Thanks alot man!!
when you started talking about moving your foot i started crying haha biggest revelation in my ca 25years of skating :D thank you!!
I could actually switch hard flip before I could do a regular one I don't know what that's all about
chris trull maybe same reason I feel more comfortable kicking a ball with my right foot. Better with it, and this trick is all front foot. 🤷♂️
Brooo same lol
Everybody learns different, wish I could land em switch lol
damn you make these look fun and stylish af. Trying in the am. Thanks!
This will deffinately make it easier for me to learn hardflip. I used to be able to get it around and land with one foot but i quit, got back into skateboarding 10-12 years later and i have no idea how i used to do it so easily

Thank you, man! Very helpful tips! Mastering my hardflip. Awesome trick.
Bro you’re the goat at explaining shit! I’m so close to hardflip but no one in my crew does em so I’m stuck looking at shit tutorial! But low and be hold!!! Take this subscribe😂🤞🏽
Pls help me, I tryed it since 2 months and I landed it 3 times but sometimes it's like i've never try it at all.
Sorry for mistakes i'm french
almost got it today soo close now love to pop on hard flips
it's way easier to hard flip if you put your back foot in a treflip position -- not hanging off as much but definitely on that side of the board instead of on the heel side or the board. dead ass go try it and and lemme know. a lot more control will be able to take it to obstacles not just flat ground.
Marco Mendoza yup and you get that steezy frontside flip look to it instead of the vertical pop shuv. you're 100% right
You are cool, calm and collected. I wanna learn this but yes...I do not wish to destroy my downstairs
Really nice hardflips my dude
those are great looking hardflips, well beyond my skills as of yet but it still looks doable. I love the fact that they have sort of an impossible look to them
Glad I found this channel these tips are very helpful
Thank for the different angles

This video helps a lot to get the trick
Thank you man
ive been waiting for this! thank you senpai
learned these today..
Nice hardflip + black honda accord in the background :p
Ohhh, I've been focusing on the back foot more than the front foot! Which explains why it does a varial flip rotation every time I fruit :LL
I still don’t know what the board is doing even after seeing it in slow motion
This stuff is great dude. Looking forward to more.
Banging trick tip as always. Gunna give these a razz today
I remember the first time I landed a inward heel & nollie hard flips you're right its the weirdest feeling trick.
That slight turn to catch the hardflip as it rotates towards you was an eye opener. Looks rad and would be really helpful in knowing the trick is popped and getting caught proper.
Best good looking trick if done correctly
I love when I fuckin get those swaggy like vertical hardflips where it's like doin a sacktap on Tony hawk with no hands slamming that shit down stairs is so cash
Ima try them all day till i land one. Thanks bro 👌👍
amazing trick tip video!
Daamn so fukin steezy. I use to be able to do this trick years ago now I'm back skating for 2 months and everytime I do it the board lands behind me. You're doing it a straight line it looks so fukin sick
After watching loads of hardflips it just make me want to see treflips
Ander Niko why
The title is the perfect oxymoron...And I don't think a hard flip will ever be easy. Thumbs up for it being a skate tutorial though!
I can't get my back foot on the board
yo that is a sick board
how do you jump and land on the board? I can get the rotation and move my feet out of the way but it doesn’t rotate fast enough and it pops too high for me to land it.
Its funny you say the back foot isn't doing anything but popping,yet you very clearly push it forward while popping
Damm bro! That's a fast hardflip.
Make a video on fs 5050s on a circle rail
Bro the trick to frontside 50-50 s on round rail is to make sure you going fast enough and to land on the rail as gracefully as possible. When you make contact with the rail you have to land light footed, if you're going too slow and you land hard on the rail that's when the board just topples off and you do a Primo. so go fast enough when you ollie onto the rail, Ollie just High Enough so you don't land on the rail vary hard.

brian ambs Hi
Just get the rail under your heel side. Practice setting your board on and standing on it
brian ambs Just think about like your doing a 5050 on a ledge, trust me your wheels will lock in my easily, but than you can wear a helmet to build up your confidence to do it if that's the problem
I think it is the same, maybe there could be some "hacks" but it's all about confidence
why your episode how to master any kickflip is not available in Poland?
Ok I can get the rotation every single time, but when I commit with my back foot I can't land it
I was always fascinated by the inward aspect to anything, and I wasn't offended by illusion flips (although hard_flops_ to me were kind of pushing the bounds of aesthetic/good taste). That being said, the flick is the foundation IMHO, and can mitigate a lot of that nut fear we face (as I type that he says 'flick' lol and then he does it again)
I already know how to hardflip but sometimes it looks like a front shuv. I guess its just foot placement
So the back foot does nothing o.0? where do you put the of pour foot at least?
Practicing the rotation with your hands on the end of the nose and tail back and forth forever
The "catch at 90 degrees" thing is weird. Ever since I've learned them they had full rotation, my nollie, fakie, and switch is all the same essentially.
I'm just here to get better consistency with this fkin trick
I always end up doing a frontside flip while jumping backwards and not turning 180 with it so it just looks really shitty.
i practicing cathing it with one foot but i make it kickflip more than a half i double it i wander whats that called
Nice video
I can't do a hardflip and I am amazed by people who can. You have to be an incredibly talented skater to even do one, let alone a really good one.

With that said, I still wish I was talented enough to do a hardflip and if I ever learn how, I'll probably do them all the time.
Agreed.. varial flips and especially varial heels look so much better and are so much easier 😅
The nose hits my shin every time . How do I fix that
if you hardflip broo your backfeet will just pop? no scope?
Can't wait to land my first hardflip.
Same lol!
skate hack nollie heel
Except the secret to that trick is putting your pop foot in the pocket which I don't do for regular heelflips. Also, adjusting your flick foot to its most comfortable point... There is a lot you could go over with that trick.
Or you know... watch a 5 minute video with a couple helpful tips on learning the trick AND THEN go out and learn for hours and hours?..
I spent more time reading the comments but that’s a good hardflip
Sick vid
I learned frontside flips (the proper way not the musks way) recently. so when I do hard flips now it does a vertical kinda hardflip but I turn my body on accident. Any fixes?
Did you ever fix it?
One day I may!
can you please make a video of how to inward heel
how do you 50-50 a rail ?
Yooooooooooooo you riding system skateboard! I see you
My biggest issue with hardflips is the board landing too far behind me to catch it. Anyone got any tips?
idk if anyone could help me but everytime i try it it turns into a fs flip which isn’t bad at all but i wanna do hardflips :///
So cleeeeeean!
i got these but i land back trucks first everytime or sometimes even tap the tail.. how do i prevent this?
Skateobyou when the board comes around and your ready to land it focus on stomping your front foot down harder
Anybody else uses their backfoot for hardflips
wow this is exactly how I do these,
I think hard flips are more back foot, it’s practically a frontside pressure flip
My problem with hardflips is I can't flip them the right way like my flick is off & weird but @ the same time I can hardflip on a penny board but not on a regular board
Can u do them now
Flick off the side instead of like a kickflip
Every time I try to hard flip I frontside slip like it looks cleans asf but it’s not a hard flip and it pisses me off
Im so done with this it’s my dream trick but it’s my 3 day trying and I can’t even get the rotation
Bruh. U only been trying for 3 days man?
I find inward heel flips alot easier than hard flips, i have inward heels pretty much every try but it is pretty much impossible to credit card on an inward heel. Everytime i try a hardflip i credit card
Julian Krenz I'm the opposite, my front foot always misses the flick 😑
don't flick your foot like a regular heelflip (where your foot slides and flicks to the nose) flick your foot to the tail or straight forward sorry for my bad english
A tip on big flips
U look like Luis Mora doin that hardflip
so cool
Learning them was different for me. Once i concentrated on popping the living shit out of it they worked
I had never properly tried this but I flicked one yesterday randomly and it flipped perfect and in about 2 mins I landed one that's the fastest I ever learnt a flip trick and I have it semi consistent, I think this trick feels really natural to me
I'm sick with hard flips and impossible flips 😈
Hi,
Ghettobird hacks ? Please
i do very good hardflip im jumping the board is going between my legs but i cant put on the board the back foot although im jumping and flicking
savage rikos yeah same, did u learn to do it yet
savage rikos
keep your knees up to your chest a little longer

I always over flip them
🔥
Ima get popsicled
Mine its vertical :( any tips to do it correctly?
Keep shoulders inline with board
Ill try dude thank u 🤙🏻
how to easyflip hard
Looks like the NW
I feel it's kinda disingenuous to say it's ALL in the front foot, it's MOSTLY in the front foot but I spent YEARS fucking up tre's because I was purely focused on my back foot. Then I injured myself and it became all about my shoulders.. now I've lost them again but yeah, you're trying to be as accurate as possible here
This trick is hard
