i just watched this for the first time since i made it... wow, i sound terrible. i'm pretty sure i was just getting off being sick and i guess i was a bit more voice shy. sorry about that haha
VLSkate Im getting my first legit skateboard today.😀☺
VLSkate I love your tutorials, I'm trying to commit to kick and heel flips...i can do the rotation good on both (but my board goes like forward), but my back foot doesn't want to come on the board
I'm a big fan greetings from Italy and keep killing it
its all good man!
VLSkate I got popsicled trying to heel flip 🤦♂️😂
A heel flip is when u kick out with your heel causing the board to rotate inward and a kick flip is when you kick out with your toe causing the board to rotate outwards
Bro, your tutorials are better than Braille. You’re a god. Thanks to you I learned a heelflip in 3hours
He’s so much more chill and straightforward too
Me to exactly 3 hours of heelflips and i landed it
I think VLskate is great but I think braile is focused more around children
And he’s probably not a Scientologist lol
Lol I can’t even rotate it which is funny because I can Ollie a foot. Any tips?
To me, the best tip for landing the heelflip is to keep your shoulders straight. A very big problem that most beginner skaters have is jumping away from the board. Right before they pop they lean back so the board goes in front of them. So if you can stay straight up and down, you should get tricks way faster.
Javier Castro This is very true. When I noticed this skating by myself, I started to hold my hand out a little... I would try to imagine my hand horizonal to the ground. That helped me notice and feel how straight I was standing, bending and popping. Plus, I didn't know I was bending my back when I was skating at first. Now it's all in the knees. Try it!
I jump to the roght
i always land in front of my board, it's so annoying
the boad lands in front of me
Thank you im intermediate btw
Landed 8 heelflips in a row yasss
frANCISCO CORderO sweeet! :D
Dank Terriyaki good job
just 2 :/
Never ever landed :///
@@me.9884 At least you landed it
It took me 7 years to do a kick flup and 2 days for heel flip
coolguyxx20 For me it’s kind of opposite. I could form a kick flip and land with 1 foot but I can’t even form a heel flip.
@@kobeigtbh6742 try doing an ollie north with your foot hanging off the board. It was way easier for me to get the board rotating once I thought of it this way.
Kobe Fuji123 666 same dude I can do a kick flip and Land on my right foot not my left and the heel flip I don’t even know the positi9ming
That's nice notivation
It took me 7 months to do a kickflip but 1 day to do a heel flip
That would hurt heelfliping with only socks
One time he ollied bare foot
Cinnamon fox Deng that’s really impressive
Every trick besides a shuv it would probably hurt
A-Surfin-Bird I Ollie barefoot all the time
@@eyprc9313 you must not ride Mob
What helped me was I told myself “jump higher and straight up” and boom I have them now :D oh yeah and lean back and try your hardest
Yesssssss same with kicks! Jumps straight up a higher! It works for SURE!!!!!!
@@firepomango7631 I cant jump higher cause it scares me
butthurt bitch dont be a bitch, it won’t hurt as much as you think it will
Lean back towards your back foot or towards your back?
Leaning back almost made me die 😂😂😂 but it does give more balance to the board tho soooo
I can't do either yet but I definitely find heelflips easier, I'm always afraid when I kickflip that I'm gonna get popsicled, heelflips feel nice and natural
DaftKnightLP oppositely for me
Getting popsicled is good
CallMeWhatever 😂
any progression 2 years later
I once kicked to hard for a kick flip and the board went up and popsicled me it got my balls and asshole I was bleeding out my ass for like 5 minutes
I love heelflips they feel easier to learn than frontside 180
Ye
This... I tried explaining that to my friends today and they were just like.... "???"
@@nunyabusiness776 damn this was year ago, i forgot i even skated
TYB Gvbe WTF man i just started
@@stefaungaming6325 aye man keep it going tho dont quit liike me, im starting to realize how mch i missed it, and its hard to keep it going
Wow I didn’t even realise that putting the front foot further back increases the flip speed. I “over” flip on kickflips a lot and that may be the reason. Cool!
u taught me my first Ollie so i came back for u to teach me my first heel flip lol
I just landed 4 heelflips for the second time ever, made me happy made me smile nice :)
You deserve alot more subs 👌🏻
landed my first today...wasn't sure if I got the flicking motion right, this helped...thanks
I know this is an old video, but I have fallen in love with your challenge
I have bean struggling with healflips for a while, then I tried you foot placement and landed one in 5 tries, love you for that
That was honestly a great trick tip! I'm definitely a kickflip person, myself xD
GibblesPvP thanks man :D yeah, i definitely am too!
VLSkate what brand are those shoes
Masin Thomas DC I think
briggies. TV VLSKATE already told me 😎
Same but heelflips go way higher than my kickflips :/ i just can't land them lol. My kickflips go low and fast and I can land those.
Just learned how to heel flip literally after only an hour and a half of practice and I’ve never practiced heel flips until now. This video was better than any other one I watched. Thanks so much.
You deserve so many more subs than you have, I respect and learn so much from your vids and I pick them over any other. Keep doing these videos they're great and I'm sure, just as inspiring and helpful to skaters as they are to me.
I've been skating for 10 years and this spring when the snow melted I COULDN'T HEELFLIP ANYMORE!! I literally had no idea what was going wrong I've been skating long enough that I can usually self diagnose any issues, adjusting weight distribution, set-up, truck tightness, changing where/how I flick off and literally nothing made sense. Sometimes I could land them and other times I'd be totally hopeless. TODAY I FINALLY FIGURED IT OUT! WHEN LEANING BACK YOU MUST STICK YOUR REAR END OUT FURTHER TO GET MORE WEIGHT BEHIND THE BOARD! THIS ALSO HELPS YOU SEE THE BOARD ROTATE UNDER YOU! before I was literally bending straight down to pop and trying to lean my shoulders back which would put my head behind my knees so I could hardly see the board rotate as well and made you land with your weight way to far forward! Even if the board stayed under me and I jumped on it I'd fall forward when I landed. Pretty sure I'd occasionally do this with tre flips too but it wasn't such an issue because 360 flips rotate in front of you so my weight would more or less even out, but it felt like I was rotating them blindly which made it scarier to catch!
I literally learned this in 6 and a half minutes, no joke. Ur tutorials are always great bro thanks
Took me about a year to get a solid kickflip, took me about two days to get a solid heelfip. I wonder which one I'm naturally good at?
I can't even do the flipping rotation in a kickflip, but I can smoothly land a heelflip. Everytime I practice kickflips my ankles hate me
You know it's a good UA-camr when even his six year old vids are great
0:48 this mans needs new shoes
Naaah, they've got at least another 500 kickflips in em. When your little toe starts disintegrating, that's the cue for some fresh tread.
Lets venmo him some money
Love that you say like or sub if you want to. Thanks for giving way better tutorials than braille
Just landed my healflip
Thank you so much I landed this the day I watched this your my favorite UA-camr ever
I landed my first heelflip today, and it was because of this video. Keep it up VL.
No matter how much I tell myself "lean back" I end up flicking it behind me and landing before my board does, jump higher, lean back further, my board flips into my heel every time, cant tell you how many sessions I'd go home with a bruised achilles from the damn heelflip biting me
Did you ever fix it? I’m struggling with the issue right now
@@Peppapig-nm7ob I'm closer now, getting a good jump and really committing to staying above the board
@@HauntedMound666 can you land one now
@@Angel-jw1kz nah
@@HauntedMound666 pain
Super underrated channel taught me how to back side 180 Ollie pop shy it and of course heel flip
Honestly ur the MOST underrated skateboarding utuber u deserve 100 million subs
This dudes actually the best at making UA-cam how to's for skating
I will buy you new shoes if you transfer your skateboard knkwledge to me by brain transfer
I landed my first few heelflips today and it took 5 months but it was so worth it thank u vL
you mentioning the kick instead of flick helps so much
This man has singlehandedly taught me all my tricks I know
Bro the ending, sick clip!!
I don’t understand how to not make the heelflip go into a dolphin heel, how to get the flicking motion, and how to get it to go in front of me instead of behind me. Thank you
Kiran Kramer bro same question cant flip the board at alp
Kiran Kramer I’m still tryna learn them but u gotta slide up like an Ollie then kick your heel out. It’s weird. When u slide up don’t slide your foot straight up slide it so your toes are pointing down then just flick out with your heel.
The dolphin heel happens when you flick off the top of the nose, try to flick at an earlier point on the nose like the front pocket (it’s been a year hope that this helps if you haven’t landed it)
You and skateboard bruh make most calming skate tutorial
man ı really admire you you perform the tricks higher than any other youtube channel and you have helped me a lot
Learned heelflips in one day by watching this and also I learned tricks like the pop shuv, kickflip, Ollie, boardslides so I had good board control and confidence
I trust this man with my life because of the amount of tricks he explained to me
I always wear slip ons and I can do heel flips it's just my ankle scrapes against the grip and it starts to bleed
justin decastro smart
Reeeee
Because your foot is sliding too much up int the air you should flick a bit more down
Wear long socks
@@user-vo4po5qm2h it still hurts
You're so good at this dude! I am for sure gonna recommending you to my friends! Thanks keep up the good work bro !:)
How I usually learn tricks is I watch his tutorials for the basics and to see how a trick works then I go listen the Johnny giger for his tips
that was probably the best heelflip tut ive seen ever
Shoulda tried this years ago I finally got my kick flips down then I tried this it was the easiest thing ever
You almost made me snap my board in rage But you are helping me so thanks, I like you’re vids
Guys i just landed this trick earlier feels so good to land, took me 3 days just to land it thanks vlskate
cant really do ollies while riding yet nd I literally almost landed a heelflip, thanks for the help dude
I havent even landed an ollie while moving and I'm trying these 🤣
why would you do that
@@jeweerly2319 because I'm bored and I'd rather move on to something else than get quit because I'm stuck on the same thing forever
Same for me. I can land my Ollie's like 4 times in 10 tries not moving and I almost landed a Heelflip today
@@MassaBruin you should try thinking what goes wrong when you ollie. then when you know that you should practice that one single thing better. i've done that and i can now 180 frontside while moving
@@Joel-cl8vy ive gone as far as recording myself skating and playing it in slow motion and I can find the issue the majority of the time but when I go to fix it nothing works.
Your heel flips look so nice!
Sebastian Richards thank you! :)
it took dedication to do those in socks. But thank you, it really helped with foot placement.
Your skate videos are awesome brother thanks for the help.
I love your vids been watching for awhile . Helped me w a lot , keep up good work
I gave up on kick flips. Lets see if I can heelflip 😀
I'm trying to relearn these and I finally got them! Thanks!
I was tryna learn to kickflip with the proper foot position and everything and it did the heel flip rotation lol so I think I prefer heel flips and I’m going to try do them properly
In order to master your heel flips quicker, try mastering the basic tricks, such as ollie, backside pivot, frontside pivot, frontside 180, backside 180, pop shuvit, fake pop shuvit, and frontside pop shuvit.
Dude this is insanely helpful. I’ll make sure to note this tips while trying.👍
I was practicing a ollie north but randomly spun the board, after 5 for fun heelflip tries i landed it. Then i searched for a video like this!
this trick took me so long to learn
Damn VLSkate has some really nice heel flips
Wauw good vid you deserve more subs
Ruben Hof thank you homie! :D
Vlskate I just started learning heel flips today it's A lot easier than kick flips for me I will prob get in 1-2 weeks I'm really close thanks for the great content ur to to for learning trick 😃
Yess I finally landed my heel flip!!!!
i watched one of your videos and then subscribed. these are SUPER good tips
I’ve almost neutered myself like 20 times doing heelflips and that’s the only thing that stops me from committing
I’m weird I usually flip it with most of my foot hanging off the back and it work well for me
Like your vids, positive vibes from southwest GA 💪
I how love a skate help video bro!!
Thx dude you the best
Thanks man, been having trouble with this trick.
Marshall Hernandez no problem! i hope it helps
whenever i try to go for a heelflip, it ends up doing an inward heelflip. I've actually almost landed them inward it's weird
you're probably not popping straight down with your back foot but putting a little scooping action in by accident - try putting your back foot more towards the heel side of the tail as demonstrated in the video above. If that doesn't work and you're still adding an accidental shove-it motion, try popping ever so slightly frontside - not so much as that you'd do a front shove or varial heel, but just to make sure you don't backside scoop.
Great tips. Perhaps I'll try with my front foot further back. Struggling to get the full flip atm!!
I love how your legs come out in this trick. Rad. Looks better but I guess kick feels better
You need 10mil subs you helped me Ollie and more.
U make good videos and give helpful tips, after I watched your video i improved a lot, good job
Ayyy I knew practicing the landing with a railing would help the only thing I need is to put my back foot back on the board
Axel B that's what i have trouble doing
I’m a natural heel flip person because It took me a week of trying to land a kickflip to get it consistently, but it took 2 days to land heel flips consistently. Lol.
I’ve spent the better part of a year learning kickflips. Earlier tonight I started finally feeling semi-consistent with them. Saw someone else trying heelflips and decided to try it for a bit even tho I’d spent literally half an hour on them my entire life and never come close. Landed two clean ones. Skating is weird.
This works so well I m never gonna do a kickflip only heel flips :D
Thx, dude! Landing my first one today 🖤🖤🖤
Thank you I landed my first heel flip 30 minutes after watching this video
dude nice heel to primo
Im just starting on a
Heelflip, and i watched brailes video and this one is better
All my friends are learning kickflips and shuvits while I'm feeling left out because I can only ollie so I'm trying to heel flip to impress them and also to be a good skater
Vlskate is awsome
this comment should be the top comment
Still can’t get heel but this was helpful
Awesome video, man.
Awsome ! nice pop
this video helped me a lot
really helpful video
I love to watch this guy tutorial cause I kinda get it
You deserve my sub bro; great content.
FinnAmv hey, thank you a ton :D
That's exactly where I put my front foot too!
It took me a year to heelflip and I can do them pretty clean but I can also kickflip clean too so I guess you can both a heelflip and kickflip person
My heelflips doesn't spin sometimes and when it do spin it stops halfway
Flick harder
Move your front foot away from the nose more it'll spin faster.
Update?
Great video
Kickflip person here!
