Just started skating again after 14 years because of you, braille and revive. Just reminded me how much fun I had when I used to board. Note to all, if you haven't skated in a while, don't try a laser flip as your first trick, my bruised hip has not forgiven me yet, lol.
honestly, the way you break down the tricks makes your tips just click for me. after having to relearn skateboarding after a 10 year hiatus, your tips just make sense
the overcompensation makes a lot of sense. varial flip kicks diagonal because you stay in place, but bs flip kicks normally because body is already turning. my prob is not forward flips, but keeps turning into alpha flips.
I like that fear and loathing in Las Vegas knock off shirt! Beer and shredding in Las Vagas! Haha I have had B/S flips for years I just like watching all your videos for the humor in them! 👍🏼👊🏼
it worked like first time i try : D now i have to do them over and over again to get them everytime i said myself you have to kick flip and dont even think about bs ollie THEN BOOM ive landed and rolled away because in past i was able to do that weird bs flip motion and it always stucks and stops i hated it for long time... with your mental advice it's easier to roll away with bs flip thats what im lookin for, for years thanks for advice man...
I can get a backside flip on a hip once in a while but am yet to do more than 2 or 3 backside flips a day on flat. It still hasn't clicked for me, hopefully this video will help once I get out there tomorrow and try a few.
well that's weird, you should have those... i have good fs shoves but terrible heelflips and i can varial heel almost every try. I focus more on the fs shove, as soon as i pop/scoop in the fs shove motion i do the heelflip and it works out just fine, it's pretty similar to a varial kickflip, just the opposite...
Good work, I have backside flips down, but I want em BETTER! I really dig yours, full rotation, nice POP, I want mine perfect like that. I actually feel they are easier (at least they definitely look cooler) when I do them off of something, even just a small ledge or curb. Good WORK ninja as always! 430am.. going to skate
i get your explanation, i do the same when i for some reason cant kickflip the easiest things. break it down and simple and do that. pop flick land. easy 123, pop, flick, turn, land for backside flips.
Princeton Pimentel I had that Same problem with kickflips and the way I got them was by doing it on grass, but nunnu that soft shit it has to b hard dirt
Well you want to flick the board when you're at about a 30 degree angle (maybe like .3 seconds) and try to catch the board at a 90 degree angle from where you started, and then finish the rotation either in the air or by pivot, or a combination of both.
it always feels like i just do a varial kickflip and then i just spin and land on it but i can never get it to be a fluid motion or catch it in the air then spin
i have this weird problem with ollies where i dont snap the tail straight all the time so the board sometimes goes lile a fs 180 or spmething even though I don't turn my shoulders
Learn fs shuvs better, if you can do fs shuvs with the good technique that they spin under you instead of going behind, varial heels are going to come pretty easy...
I was looking at a cakemuscle deck to buy but it only comes in 7.75 or 8.5 and usually I'd be fine with that but I'm currently on a 8.25 and my trucks wouldn't fit either of the deck sizes available
I don't know why skaters shun varial flips,but love backside/front side flips,aren't bs/fs flips easier than varial flips since it is just a kickflip with a 180 added?
Elijah Ewers I have Varial Flips on lock, but not backside or frontside flips. Really close with Backside Flips. You would think Frontside Flip would be easy because Front 180's are easy and Kickflips are easy, but Frontside Flips aren't. They're really weird.
+Gustavo Sj Don't over think it. Lol. It is that simple. If you want to go higher, jump. If you want to catch the board, pull your knees up and allow it to spin and then stomp the board down.
lol i learned kickflips like 8 or 9 years ago and they still suck... there's really no tip i guess to have them higher, just jump higher and pull your feet towards your chest. And try to not rocket flip, flick it out, your foot really has to catch on the board to level it out good.
When I do backside flips the board cuts into my ankle/upper top of my foot. I feel like I’m flicking with too much of my foot instead of just my toe. This is super annoying because I’m trying to learn the trick and end up opening my scab back up causing it to bleed. Any tips?
I learned how to nollie tre and the day after words I could do them but it's all scoop I wanna do both scoop and pop so their higher and when I try to pop it won't let my back foot land on it can you help me ?
Whenever I try these my board always wants to varial flip! Think I’m over compensating or not trying get the BS180 in there. Taken this on board and see what happens!
I need help, I can kickflip on lock, and bs 180 pretty good. I can also halfcab flip, but on bs flip my kick flip is rocket, no pop or never fully 180. I can land them fully 180 but it doesnt have pop, how do I fix this
I’ve been trying to get bs flips up a euro gap but everytime my feet land to close together and i just slip out and die i don’t know how to fix it. Help.

Help us learn frontside flips!!
yes
yeah dude i have a really high hardflips but i cant land that fuck
+Jonathan Latulippe ya cause you are turning towards the way the board is flip bs flips go against the way it flips
here's a tip. watch reynolds
yep watch the boss
why is the music so emotional xD
ive been trying to backside flip for weeks now and my ankle has a giant bubble on it
Flexy I know the feeling 😪
You get it yet?
I thought I was the only one 😂😅
I just relearn bs flips and this video was greatly helpful thank you so much Steve.
I'd be interested to see your take on hardflips and/or impossibles those are 2 I've always struggled with
honestly, the way you break down the tricks makes your tips just click for me. after having to relearn skateboarding after a 10 year hiatus, your tips just make sense
I didn't know cakemuscles made you better. I will now only buy cakemuscles and exercise my cakemuscle frequently.
Yeah, that helps. Thanks man. I always over complicate it. Either my back foot slips off or I slip out.
WOOOW, this is the best tip i ever seen on backside flips!....i had the same problem but i really understand why now, thanx!
Just learned half cab flips and hardflips. Really wanna learn bs and fs flips soon!
I straight up learnt a backside flip in 30 minutes after watching this without ever trying it before
this is actually really helpful and better than any other tricktip
the overcompensation makes a lot of sense. varial flip kicks diagonal because you stay in place, but bs flip kicks normally because body is already turning. my prob is not forward flips, but keeps turning into alpha flips.

Great tip I just learned backside flips a couple days ago and I'm sure this will help me get them cleaner.
THANK YOU SO MUCH NINJA! THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER THEN A 10 MINUTE VIDEO!!
tell us all about varial heels
lmfao thats a lie, i have fs shoves and heelflips consistent, even hardflips. v heels just dont register with me
well that's weird, you should have those... i have good fs shoves but terrible heelflips and i can varial heel almost every try. I focus more on the fs shove, as soon as i pop/scoop in the fs shove motion i do the heelflip and it works out just fine, it's pretty similar to a varial kickflip, just the opposite...

Princeton Pimentel I had that Same problem with kickflips and the way I got them was by doing it on grass, but nunnu that soft shit it has to b hard dirt
If you buy the és accels you can land anything according to pj ladd
Great tutorial
hope you don't get sunburns in your head with that sun in vegas
what is it called when you flip the board without spinning your body same flip
Torres Vlogz Varial Kick Flip
Ninja I bought a cake muscle tell me if I made a good choice, I got the Zelda one
This might be a stupid question but in what part of the rotation do you kickflip. Like time wise
Well you want to flick the board when you're at about a 30 degree angle (maybe like .3 seconds) and try to catch the board at a 90 degree angle from where you started, and then finish the rotation either in the air or by pivot, or a combination of both.
it always feels like i just do a varial kickflip and then i just spin and land on it but i can never get it to be a fluid motion or catch it in the air then spin
Because it's not a varial flip body varial, it's really just a kickflip and a bs 180...
Do a review of your old parts from neat and w/e
Ninja can you please do fs flips
Do a fs flip tutorial.
i have this weird problem with ollies where i dont snap the tail straight all the time so the board sometimes goes lile a fs 180 or spmething even though I don't turn my shoulders
Any trick tips on variel heels? I can land them but I always tend to throw it so far away or do a really bad heelflip to Popsicle.
Learn fs shuvs better, if you can do fs shuvs with the good technique that they spin under you instead of going behind, varial heels are going to come pretty easy...
awsome shirt. i love that movie
Thanks ninja
Please do nollie half can heels
I was looking at a cakemuscle deck to buy but it only comes in 7.75 or 8.5 and usually I'd be fine with that but I'm currently on a 8.25 and my trucks wouldn't fit either of the deck sizes available
I find anything that does a front shove motion hard. Like hardflips, varial heels, fs flips, fs heels
I don't know why skaters shun varial flips,but love backside/front side flips,aren't bs/fs flips easier than varial flips since it is just a kickflip with a 180 added?
no, lol, atleast not for me... varial flips are pretty easy for me compared to bs flips or fs flips...
Elijah Ewers I have Varial Flips on lock, but not backside or frontside flips. Really close with Backside Flips. You would think Frontside Flip would be easy because Front 180's are easy and Kickflips are easy, but Frontside Flips aren't. They're really weird.

+MemeTube it's not DAT simple lol
+Gustavo Sj Don't over think it. Lol. It is that simple. If you want to go higher, jump. If you want to catch the board, pull your knees up and allow it to spin and then stomp the board down.
