      i landed a kickflip before a shuv it. i had a bad habit of doing my ollies with my toe at an angle & a bit too narrow of a stance and one time i did it so wrong that i just stepped off back from the board landing only one foot on and noticed it just did a kickflip motion. & so i just went for it. its funny, thats a similar story to how rodney realized this trick was possible in the first place.

    Neen gave some great advice. I feel like a lot of people try to skip the "learn to ride to the store" part and just jump straight into tricks. If you use your board as a form of transportation when you start skating it will seriously help your style and comfort. Plus it's low risk just cruising

    What i love about skating is from the thumbnail you wouldn't think he's pulling off a heelflip if you're new, but Neen has the trick down so well that he's able to extend his leg, the flick of his heel you might say, with such precision and confidence that the board will do what it's done a million time before, it's a metaphor for life to trust yourself. It's meditation, confidence/attitude check, breath work, exercise, fun w the homies, I can go on and on

    I’ve never understood why most people heelflip with their toes hanging off. I’ve been heelflipping with my toes on the board for years and it is much easier and i get more pop out of the flick. None of my friends understood how I can heelflip so well until I told them to keep their toes on, and it instantly became easier for them.

    • @AliErfurt
      @AliErfurt 3 роки тому +3

      i tend to do heelflips with the tip of my shoe from a similar foot position like a kickflip. i developed this long before skateboard videos on youtube and it works fine for me, with a lot of consistency and pop. so i feel you

    • @floridaboy9641
      @floridaboy9641 3 роки тому +1

      Flushdraw Do you also point your front foot towards your back foot for varial heels? I do this and flick to the corner, so the board just rotates and spins entirely around my front foot. This also helped me learn laser flips. I also point my foot slightly forward for heelflips and fs flips and hardflips.

  • @calebsmith1926
    @calebsmith1926 3 роки тому

    I feel like a lot of times, it's much more efficient to learn how to do something how your own body naturally does it. That's why skateboarding is so beautiful. Everyone does it differently and everyone has their own style. Theres a reason Neen has become the heel flip king. He had his OWN way of doing it and it clicked with him. You can watch every tutorial, how to, tips and tricks... but you'll always end up doing it how YOU do it. And if you take the time to develop YOUR way of doing it, you'll be able to consistently and naturally. The issue I have with watching tutorials is that you spend all this time doing a trick how someone else does it that you mess up your own body's rhythm. You end up MAYBE getting a trick down how somebody else does it, but you'll rarely have the natural ability to learn new tricks on your own in the way that your own body moves.
