This is prolly one of the best heel flip tutorials ever. I’ve landed it before but wanna get it consistently rather than every like 20th attempt. The flick after the pop was so key and I ended up learning that myself from slo mo lol. Either way great vid this helped a lot.
Paulino Caracuas It took like 2 minutes after watching this video, but I tried to do it on my own about 2-3 months before this video was uploaded and got close a lot of times. But this video is all you need to land your first heelflip. Hope this helps!
I've been trying heel flip for most of quarantine. This tutorial is different then any other... and within 5 minutes of trying with the new foot positioning and timing I landed! Thank you!❤
Oh wow! i'm really glad it helped you. Sometimes its something really small holding you back that you arent even thinking about when you are trying the trick. Thanks for your support!
Omg finally someone talking about the heel not being involved, I recently learned this trick and I was so confused as to why everyone has there toes hanging off. I fully flick it with my toes
I love that the footage you show for first heelflips isn't just young kids. That definitely helps to remind us that you can learn to skateboard at pretty much any age!
I’ve had heelflips for years, but occasionally lose them with a new deck until muscle memory comes back through. Not good enough. This is the best heelflip trick guide I’ve seen on UA-cam, as it addresses the common misconception of hanging your toes off of the board. Very nice man, thank you for taking the time to make this. To be honest, I’ve never thought about the “preflick” curl like you’ve described. As a first time viewer of your channel, I am impressed, and am excited to see what else you have available. As well, I’m excited to get my heelflips back tomorrow, no more excuses. Thanks man!
This was the first flip trick I learnt. Which was back December. I then lost the ability to do for 5/6 months. Apparently it was because I forgot to pop then flick (Tried doing it at the same time). Thanks to this video I got it back pretty much. 👌👍
ive been super inconsistent with heelflips and have lost them many times, hopefully this video helps. the tips for hangtime, jumping and the flick definitely helped remind and point out flaws
Started skating at age 45...and that was only a couple months ago. This video didn’t solve all my problems, but it did reinforce some of my suspicions and give me clues for moving forward with my education. Thanks.
Excellent video! I agree 100% that you need to be comfortable riding on your board and have a clean Ollie prior to trying this trick. It will help you progress much more quickly!
Mi amigo !! Hoy me compre mi tabla , hace mas de 20 años fui skate , ahora a mis 38 años comenzare a patinar desde cero , !! Mirare todos tus videos para aprender !! Muchas gracias por compartir tu conocimiento 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I’ve grown so accustomed to doing them with my heel and flicking straight. However, I found that I rocket flip just about every time and they are not coming off the ground much. I have a pretty good kickflip and I like the idea of treating this trick just like a kickflip essentially. I find that many people who have a great heelflip follow this method. I’m going to try to learn it through this method.
I know this video is kinda old but this is my only reference to learning kickflips. I’m just getting them and your trick tips are helping other ppl at the park perfect their heelflips. So big ups to you man!!
I've been watching every other tutorials out there and yours is by far the best ! This is not confortable to have the toes hanging in front. I'm going to try it at my next session. Thanks !
Damn i never thought I’d get to this point but I landed my first ollie after 9 months of skateboarding a week ago and I finally did my first heel flip thx man
About to head to the park with the skate homie soon to try Heelflips again. I think I’ll be able to land it if I can get the flick consistent. She motivates me to commit, so hopefully today is the day
This tutorial has really helped me a lot! I've been able to do heelflips but not consistently. The part about not hang the toes to a side and flicking it with the pinky really got my rotation and the board centered under me. Thanks to you I'm sure this will be as consistent as my ollies soon. Thanks a million. /Robert
This was an amazing tutorial video for heelflips. I've always had trouble with heelflips. I've landed a few, but it's definitely one of my most inconsistent tricks. This video really showed the foot placement and the timing and foundation of the trick. Really broke down the components and was a really well put together video. Thank you so much for making this video, you have earned yourself a new subscriber. Very nicely done, thank you
I came upon your channel for the first time today. Awesome!!! I love how you have added markers to point in the video. One of the best organized and thought out tutorials Ive seen. Thank you!
you and sean brown are the two i go to for support. your "jump" advice helped get my kickflip and now I'm working on my heelflip. please give me tips on a front shuv!!!
Literally spent almost a year trying to heelflip by sticking out my toes over my board. Never got better. Took the advice from this one and kept my foot more on the board like an ollie and got it in a sesh. Thanks a lot man.
Thanks for the most helpful and in depth tutorial, I hope with these added tips I can land my heel flips. I’m having trouble with my back foot landing on the board. I can flick it nice and over flip it but my back foot wants to plant on the ground immediately
This is one of the most common things I hear with most tricks. It takes some effort to make yourself pull your back leg up. I always say to pop and pull your knee up towards your chest to get it back above the board. Let me know when you land it.
I hang my toes off the end and it works just fine. Often times, if I don’t do that, then I can’t get the board to rotate. But, your explanation makes sense, I’ll try to do it that way too to see how it feels.
Hanging your toes off works for sure! I think you can balance better and get more pop with my setup. Doing them with your foot hanging off is just fine. Thanks for watching!
New to the channel an definitely subbed! You're a great teacher bro I feel like I'm definitely gonna land this illusive heelflip now. Never could before as a teen but I'm 33 now back to pushing after 17 year break an gettin my grove back..appreciate the help my dude!
That is awesome that you are getting back into it! I am also 33, belive it or not. so don't let the age hold you back. I took a break for a while too. Many more videos on the way.
@@Skiddyskates Awesome bro bring on that great content! I'm coming to find our older bodies are definitely less forgiving than before but feels like I'm progressing way faster than when I was younger..
Skidish Skateboarding no problem keep up the great content and nice u were already on it 👍 I’m subscribed I’ll be watching thank you so much for your help
Thanks man, separating the tutorial into parts really helped me out in getting the essence of the trick and I finally landed it after months of trying. PS: love the unique videography, subbed👍💯
Thanks for the encouragement. Really enjoy editing and wish I had videos like this when I was learning. I literally had to go out and just try until I got it. Thanks for your support!
Heelflips are my only flip trick. However, I can only do them on a bank to fakie. I haven't landed it on flat or up the bank yet. I just keep putting the work it.
@@Skiddyskates yes. I have been a Powell flight deck guy for 2 years. The VX is a very different shape under feet. It is taking me some time to figure it out.
I finally found people to skate with today but they’re a lot better than me so I don’t think they’ll stick around but if I learn these and kickflips I think I’ll be good enough for them👍🏽
Hopefully they will still accept you either way. They were on your level at some point, keep that in mind. Its really good to skate with people better than you. It will help you progress much faster!
thanks for the advice man im getting closer and closer just subbed, im Also going to be making a time lapse type of video of me trying to land a heelflip on my channel.
A lot of the people that know how to heelflip, do them with the back foot on the pocket and the front foot really on the side of the board, I wanna learn how he does them because they just look so clean every time
After you get heelflips down check out my How to Varial Heelflip video here: ua-cam.com/video/0AHI04PjFXs/v-deo.html
Skidish, what's the model of this adidas shoes you are using in the video? Thanks for the great videos on the channel!
😇😇
Thank you bro I landed it In 3 tries after this vid 🙏🏼
That is awesome! really glad the video helped you.
I already landed my 1st 1. But I'm still struggling soo I decided to look at some tutorials

Really glad it helped! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Thank you! I just landed my first heelflip! Just wan’t to let you know that you teach me a heelflip. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!
I'm really glad it helped! Love comments like this.
How long did u take to learn how to heelflip?
Paulino Caracuas It took like 2 minutes after watching this video, but I tried to do it on my own about 2-3 months before this video was uploaded and got close a lot of times. But this video is all you need to land your first heelflip. Hope this helps!

I'm surprised people don't talk about it more. I think it is fine to hang your foot off, It just makes the trick much harder.
Theres a benefit tho because you it rips the side of your shoe less
crazy how effortless you make them look
😂real
I love that the footage you show for first heelflips isn't just young kids. That definitely helps to remind us that you can learn to skateboard at pretty much any age!

Really glad you enjoyed it. I love editing these videos. Many more to come. I really appreciate the support!
where was this 20 years ago..arggh!! The best instructional advice ever.
Really glad it was helpful. I guess I should have made the video sooner haha
Best skate tut ever just landed my first heel flip LETTSS GOOO
haha nice congrats!
This was the first flip trick I learnt. Which was back December. I then lost the ability to do for 5/6 months. Apparently it was because I forgot to pop then flick (Tried doing it at the same time). Thanks to this video I got it back pretty much. 👌👍
Nice! really glad it helped you. Its always something small like that that throws people off.
ive been super inconsistent with heelflips and have lost them many times, hopefully this video helps. the tips for hangtime, jumping and the flick definitely helped remind and point out flaws
Are you getting them now? Your timing has to be spot on for heelflips. Thanks for watching.
Skidish Skateboarding theyre still a bit inconsistent with landing but with overall form the video definitely helped, now its all just commitment
best heel flip tutorial out there tbh
Thanks for the kind words! I appreciate the support.
Best tutorials ever: music, footage, angles, editing, voice, you name it... you deserve way more subscribers. Hats off!
Thanks for your support! I Really enjoy skateboarding, editing, and giving back to skateboarding. Many more videos to come.
Started skating at age 45...and that was only a couple months ago. This video didn’t solve all my problems, but it did reinforce some of my suspicions and give me clues for moving forward with my education. Thanks.
Awesome that you started so late. How close are you getting to landing heelflips?
@@Skiddyskates
Still learning the jumping part. The Ollie is currently my nemesis.
THIS HELPES ME TO LAND LIKE 5 HEEL FLIPS AFTER LIKE 5 HOURS OF PRACTICE! So excited to perfect it!
Awesome! I'm glad you are landing them
The last time I landed a heelflip was 3 months ago but now it's 5 minutes ago because of this amazing video
Really glad it helped you. Working on many more videos.
This is the most comprehensive heelflip tutorial I’ve come across thus far. Thank you dude
I hope it helps you out!
I landed it mutiple times after only watching up to how to flick part this is the most detailed and best tutorial

Espero que lo hagas. Creo que lo disfrutarás.
@@Skiddyskates muchas gracias 😀😀😀
This tutorial really helped me to get heelflips on lock, the foot position was the key for me👌
The foot position I talked about really changed this trick for me too. Glad It helped.
I’ve grown so accustomed to doing them with my heel and flicking straight. However, I found that I rocket flip just about every time and they are not coming off the ground much. I have a pretty good kickflip and I like the idea of treating this trick just like a kickflip essentially. I find that many people who have a great heelflip follow this method.

This guy is better at explaining tricks than one guy from San Francisco Bay Area. If You catch my drift ✌🏻😉
Great vid Man, thx!
Haha I'm sure the weather is nice in the Bay area though
Landed my first Heelflip in like ten minutes after watching without every trying them before. Great tutorial
No way stop the 🧢
Is that really true? Incredible!
Skidish Skateboarding yeah might have been beginners luck tho still working on getting them consistently
I know this video is kinda old but this is my only reference to learning kickflips. I’m just getting them and your trick tips are helping other ppl at the park perfect their heelflips. So big ups to you man!!

Thanks for the encouragement. Really enjoy editing and wish I had videos like this when I was learning. I literally had to go out and just try until I got it. Thanks for your support!
trying to learn them switch this has helped me a lot
For some reason people love doing heelflips switch. I can do them but they are more fun to me when i'm in my normal stance. Thanks for watching.
Heelflips are my only flip trick. However, I can only do them on a bank to fakie. I haven't landed it on flat or up the bank yet. I just keep putting the work it.
I did one for the video on a bank to fakie. I was pretty terrified that I would land primo. Thanks for watching my friend.
@@Skiddyskates I do land primo sometimes. A lot on this new VX deck.
+Adventures in Skateboarding At 40 Plus Santa cruiz?
@@Skiddyskates yes. I have been a Powell flight deck guy for 2 years. The VX is a very different shape under feet. It is taking me some time to figure it out.
Thank you for all of your videos, all of this help a lot and give motivation 🛹💪 from france
I finally found people to skate with today but they’re a lot better than me so I don’t think they’ll stick around but if I learn these and kickflips I think I’ll be good enough for them👍🏽
Hopefully they will still accept you either way. They were on your level at some point, keep that in mind. Its really good to skate with people better than you. It will help you progress much faster!
Bro your griptape is so clean, there are like no marks on it at all!!
Haha Yea I think I was using a pretty fresh deck in this video. I liked that board.
thanks for the advice man im getting closer and closer just subbed, im Also going to be making a time lapse type of video of me trying to land a heelflip on my channel.
Nice! you should do the timelapse. Love to see people land any trick for the first time. Its such a good feeling. Let me know so I can watch it.
@@Skiddyskates yupp and i will
After 2 hour I finally lend it !!!
lucky i been doing it for weeks no luck i cant land it
