Sometimes people forget that for most people skating isnt a job or something you do to impress others, its something you do for fun. If a trick comes easy to you, and its fun, DO IT. I love easy tricks, especially the ones that come easier to me than others. Thats special. You should embrace those tricks, dont neglect them just because other people got a stick up their ass
Bro this is one of my favorite tricks. I know this trick and pressure flips get a bad rep but I think that they are both good tricks. Personally, I think that every trick is a good trick as long as it’s fun to do. Skating at the end of the day is all about having fun
I feel like the only skaters that hate varials are elitists who lost the ability to varial after learning tre flips, Yet proceed to hate on people who varial and can't tre flip since they feel discouraged for not being able to land the simpler trick.
Hating a trick because it catches them out in a game of skate is the single worst excuse to hate anything. I just don't get it. Either learn them or take the L 🤣
I just like to get from A to B smoothly and with speed, and enjoy the ride. Your varial kickflips are satisfying to watch; Cork sniffers can complain all they want.
Hard flips and inward heels: "I spin 180 degrees and flip at the same time 😎" People: 🤩 Varial flips: I spin 180 degrees and flip at the same time 😎 People: 🙄
not really. ppl that think they are easy just think so because they already have pop shuvs. if you don't have pop shuvs, just a normal rockety kickflip usually comes first. hard to combine a pop shuv with a flick if you don't have pop shuvs and don't know how to flick yet.
Some of the best varial flips off the top of my head are Bastien Salabanzi’s out of that ditch gap in Sorry & Brian Andersons fakie varial down the 9 in Yeah Right. And whoever that guy is that u got the clip from in your video, perfect.
Varials are hard to hold onto once you get into tres. A good popped and caught varial looks way better imo. Especially nollie varials. One of my favorite tricks 😊
Varial Kickflip is my fave. My brother whos been skating about 2 years learned them. I always tell him most skaters now a days are trash and can't do old tricks
It's just that everybody who does them has them bad. It's a difficult trick to make look good. Most pros have insane ones though, and no one doubts that. But tres are cooler. The beautiful 360° by 360° lateral and horizontal rotation of tres make them a mathematically perfect trick.
Easily one of the coolest looking tricks in skateboarding. How you gonna get mad at someone in a game of skate all because you let your Varials get rusty lol
Funny thing is that back in the early 2000s, you were a good skater if you could varial kickflip. Well, to the small group of skaters I knew at least. It’s been a bit of a dream trick for me. However, I can’t kickflip. Doesn’t make sense to me. Heelflips makes sense, so I’ll have to try for varial heels once I can get consistent with normal heelflips (better start learning FS shove its)
It was the one flip truck that I could do consistently that others couldn't but the only way I could do it was riding fakie. Same thing with impossibles
Obviously reason for varial flip hate is that they mostly look ugly and only some people can make them look okayish, but my god, that footage of Tyler Price in the beginning is the most beautiful varial kickflip I've ever seen. Seriously, I just want to rewatch it over and over.
I love vks, I put emphasis on making those my most practiced, I did them more than even kickflips. Up and down stairs, ledges, and over gaps, the fact it is so simple made it my favorite go to for just flowing the streets. Consistency should be strived for, and easy tricks are a great way to start that journey.
Also, if you're forgetting tricks, you are probably not skating enough or something. I can understand forgetting some crazy thing like a flamingo in a game of skate but a vk? Really, that's like base skills. Imo
I found varial flips harder then trey flips when i first started. The rotation of a trey is almost always done like a pressure flip but you have to flip harder to catch a normal varial flip, in my opinion anyway.
It is easy, i figured it out before kickflip, but i love the trick, even though I've since learned treflip and impossible, i still do them as a warm-up trick
Honestly, most people I’ve come across hate them because they can’t land them consistently or they just can’t do them. I love that trick, use to have them switch, it was fun being able to do both regular and goofy.
I use to hate them because I only knew kickflips and never landed properly with my feet so I always slipped out. After upgrading my bushings to 98a doh dohs I started to learn and land shuvits consistent. After getting bored of shuvs I learned the varial all over again but this time with shiv consistent. Now my landing is smooth and I can stay on top of the board land bolts while riding fast. The hardest part or the varial is the extra pop aka rocket the nose straight up before you flick the front foot.
THIS! Pop shove its and kickflips are probably my best tricks but I just can't combine both, I've never been able to keep varials under me so yeah I hate that trick, switch and nollie are easier for some reason.
cant do regular varial flips, but can tre in every stance and varial flip nollie and switch but somehow fakie and regular i just cant do properly (i mean ive landed them but rarely) i just miss the flick always…
Dude varial flips just frustrate me because after learning how to tre flip, i find it damn near impossible to not over rotate the board when i go for a varial, but it doesn't bother me because i prefer the look of tre flips so I reject varials lol
I can't tre without Nollie or a fakie variation. but my varials are consistent af. I just don't like tre flips cause they're the most thrown trick out there. every video has at least 3.. lol
I knew a guy that would always roast this kid for using varials when we were all at the park (the kid just learned them of course he’s gonna perfect them) One day a varial landed him an E in skate and then he started to whine about the “cheap shot” mentioned in the video trying to defend his loss. Which is sad in itself, with an open mind losing in skate will only inspire you to learn a new trick, and if it leaves you rolling away with a sour taste in your mouth over someone’s name, you’ve got some personal shit to sort out. Essentially banning any trick is weird, really. That’s like one musician telling other musicians that they should boycott the key of C because everybody plays in the key of C It’s a trick. On a skateboard. No cheap shot, no cheating. And if it’s such an easy trick it should be the last one to cost you a game. Skating is a sport, but it is also an art, and art is subjective. It’s personal, and circumstantial to each and every artist of any field/craft, and it definitely wasn’t ever intended to be a vessel for judgement and superiority
I dont understand and never will. Varial flips are incredibly beautiful when done clean like the ones in the beginning of your video. There was never a stigma against them back in the day. What happened?
I honestly don’t care what people think but landing a Variel flip is just uncomfortable. It’s not that I care about the people watching, it just doesn’t feel like a Steezy trick and it’s very hard to do with style. Yours look great though
It’s confusing because it seems to me like varial flips are as popular as they could be right now. Lots of the best and most popular skaters nowadays often have v flips in their parts. I think saying its “hated” is a little outdated to be honest.
Oh but if you do a double varial then it's something special you got to start somewhere like a varial flip is harder than a kickflip but you still like kickflips
Well that was the furthest Ive got on sk8 😅 kickflip and varial, but for my defence I was best on sk8 in my area anyway, noone was rideing here at that time, horrible roads and surfaces for rideing, sk8 parks? Maybe in my dreams, no internet, when I saw x games with street sk8boarding on Euro Sport it was christmas for me, what a times 😭
I was unaware people disliked the varial flip.. it's just sorta elementary. It's not a hate thing. i think you have the varial flip confused with pressure flips.. or pop shuv tail grabs! Those are hated for sure. Those suck
I swear skaters can be so judgmental lol I think varies look cool AF 🤘🏽
Agree!
I remember learning the tre flip and retired the “180flip” instantly. Shame because before the 360’flip I loved doing varial kick flips felt good.
@@10fourrubberduck99 man never let one trick keep you from doing others no matter what the fad is👍🏽 tre flips are cool but it's always those tricks that lead up to them that I think are the coolest🤘🏽✌🏽
Only slow flipped down stairs or done into grinds

varial kickflips with a good pop always looked nice to me
Varial Flips are easy to learn, hard to master…
Learning varials were part of growing up with my buddies in middle school times. Idc if people hate on em. It's a nostalgia flip for me and I love em
Hating a trick because it catches them out in a game of skate is the single worst excuse to hate anything. I just don't get it. Either learn them or take the L 🤣
Varial flips were the first flip trick I learned and it made kickflips so much harder to learn…but I still love ‘em.
facts my kickflips suck cause i never learnt to flick of the board properly coz i did the and kickflip body variels lol
I do them nollie and switch for so long and still love them! The look soo cool and feel very nice!
facts, ive been saying this of well over 20 years.
people hate it because they forget about it.
I just like to get from A to B smoothly and with speed, and enjoy the ride.

i learned varial kickflips before reg kickflips, it’s definitely one of if not THE easiest flip trick to learn
Same! Except I can only do them Fakie. Most fun trick imo
I learnt them in the shed barefoot yeaaaars ago. Definitely one of the easiest
Easiest is nollie hard flip I swear you can literally do it without nothing
Wrong. The correct answer is fakie heelflips. Class dismissed
not really. ppl that think they are easy just think so because they already have pop shuvs. if you don't have pop shuvs, just a normal rockety kickflip usually comes first. hard to combine a pop shuv with a flick if you don't have pop shuvs and don't know how to flick yet.

1st flip trick I learned. Still feels dope to stick em
I have an undying love for varial flips, despite the negativity associated with it. I get super pumped when I see it in a video.
Old school style of Varial kickflip to switching into a different dynamic basics combinations are the least amount of skateboarding tricks!
Varial Kickflip is my fave. My brother whos been skating about 2 years learned them. I always tell him most skaters now a days are trash and can't do old tricks
No joke first flip trick ever learned. Could barely ollie but could slam down varial flips.
It's just that everybody who does them has them bad. It's a difficult trick to make look good. Most pros have insane ones though, and no one doubts that. But tres are cooler. The beautiful 360° by 360° lateral and horizontal rotation of tres make them a mathematically perfect trick.

That last clip way bay creek love that park so much
If you do them with a slower flick they look super steezy
I love how stoked that guy was on your manual. 🙌🏼
Haha yea Drew is a really hype guy
@@Skiddyskates gotta have those in your circle! The best friends to have!
Fun fact: Everyone's body alignment in the lower torso is different so some tricks are easier than others 💯

It is easy, i figured it out before kickflip, but i love the trick, even though I've since learned treflip and impossible, i still do them as a warm-up trick
Same here man
How about a double kickflip varial? Aka nightmare flip. Adds a little more flavor to the varial.
Primo city
Varial flips are the most technical trick I can do and am proud at 44 to be able to do that. Don’t give a phuck what other people think.
varial kickflips were the first flip tricks I learned. it came easy to me at the time always got people in skate with it and fakie. 😂
I swear. Learnd all the variations of that joint.
I love varials but I am having trouble getting varial heels!!
Really sick that you had a clip of Tyler Price v flipping the old englewood high 10. That’s a deep Colorado cut.
When I stuck my first varial flip in the late 90s I thought I was the shit😂.The skate game has changed big time
Honestly, most people I’ve come across hate them because they can’t land them consistently or they just can’t do them. I love that trick, use to have them switch, it was fun being able to do both regular and goofy.

@@yairfarias7489 try for pressure flip type pop on the shuv and less flick on the kickflips front foot. Rocket it straight up. Play with foot position
cant do regular varial flips, but can tre in every stance and varial flip nollie and switch but somehow fakie and regular i just cant do properly (i mean ive landed them but rarely) i just miss the flick always…

I think varial kickflips look so sick. And yours were dopeee thanks 🖤
I literally forgot how to physically do these after perfecting tres
Did varial flips like crazy as a kid and totally lost it after I learned tre 😂
That's because you don't scoop varial flips like you do a tre it very mild
What’s that background song called?😮💨
I think why varial flip is hated because it looks ugly most skater do it with less or no pop. If you do it with good pop it will look better.
Varial front 50 on a hand rail is one of the best looking tricks
i can’t even do an ollie so this sick to me :) i have been practicing though (starting today, in the DRY grass)
Varials on handrails alway looked so magical to me
I always pull out my trusty varial (can’t land tre yet) when playing skate with my boy who has treflips down but varials lol
Yo you live in SC !? I swear I just seen fire lake that’s my home town park!!!
Varial Flips are respected. Twisted flips (Varial flip sex change) for extra style points.
So it's easy to figure out once you can shove it and kick flip is like saying there's no point in learning anything after you learn to olley.
YO that Tyler Price one was literally flawless. That was dope as fuck - I guess it’s about the catch.
Since I was a kid I thought that the varials are sick, and I still believe it
I knew a guy that would always roast this kid for using varials when we were all at the park (the kid just learned them of course he’s gonna perfect them)

They are sick but I do think varial heels are way cooler for some reason
I started with varial flip then I learned 360flip and I couldn't do varial flip no longer anymore 🤦🏻.
I think it's flashy. After I started actually popping them And flashy tricks always been what I like doing
Holy shit i forgot about varials, i gotta learn them again
Varial flips are one of my favourites, I still like a tre more but varial flips done nice and big and caught feel so nice
i love the last clip cuz thats my favorite park (bay creek)
bro thats my local skate park
I dont understand and never will. Varial flips are incredibly beautiful when done clean like the ones in the beginning of your video. There was never a stigma against them back in the day. What happened?
I'm with you.
Stoked to see Tyler still getting notice
I figure most people hate it cuz they learn tre flips and then trying to not over scoop on a varial is hard lol
What about Variel heel, Believe it or not that’s the first trick I ever learned besides Ollie
what dp you think of a 360 fakie shuv it no pop?
Varial flips are back in style like bell bottoms and high rise jeans
Skaters be hating easy tricks for being easy and hard tricks for being hard
I have a question where are some good skate parks in ga because I recognize
Bay creek
Bay Creek is a good one. I go to settles bridge a lot because not many people go there. Its not the best park though. The Newnan skatepark is amazing.
I try to varial flip with so much style that it looks good
I learned variel flips before kick flips. Me trying to kick flip would always end up in an variel
I love doing fakie and nollie varial flips varial heels are sick too
Na the easiest trick to do ever is that Rodney trick. Around my parts we called it a Strawberry Shortcake
I honestly don’t care what people think but landing a Variel flip is just uncomfortable. It’s not that I care about the people watching, it just doesn’t feel like a Steezy trick and it’s very hard to do with style. Yours look great though
Nice save with that manual! 😂 that was dope!
What are you doing at firelake skate park???
Skateboarding
I'm just not good at kick flips i get hit alot on my leg idk what I'm doing
En Argentina le decimos Rasta-flip 😅
I love nightmares. Been handing out letters for more than a decade with that shit.
🔥🔥🔥
Never got the hate! Stoked on this!
Heel flips. I’d rather do nollie heel flips then normal
Ones for some reason they have the potential of going up somewhere I don’t want lol
I'm sorry but I've always thought varial flips look nice and one of my favorite tricks is a nightmare flip (varial double flip)
VARIEL FLIPS ARE DA BOMB. An easy win in a game of skate for me, cos most people over rotate the shov as they are too used to throwing treflips.
My least favorite trick is the Ollie north because I just don’t get it and I just think it feels and looks so akward and bas
It’s confusing because it seems to me like varial flips are as popular as they could be right now. Lots of the best and most popular skaters nowadays often have v flips in their parts. I think saying its “hated” is a little outdated to be honest.
I love doing varial flips once they're good add a backside body varial with it and it becomes a real pain for people LOL . . .!!!

Varial kick was always easier than regular kick flip for me

I feel bad for Gabe (braille), he loves varials lol
