The great part about the “new” board design is it makes the flip easier. As you start your ollie continue to slide your foot towards the the nose of the board which will almost flip the board for you. The best way is to watch others and lots of practice. I hope this helps. Good luck brothers.

With the kick flip its jus like an ollie just focus on rolling your flicking ankle and flick down from the concave. So like imagine flicking out and down with the side of your flicking foot. once you get better they will come easier and the flick will be a breeze. jus keep working on em and get em like butter.

for a tre flip, try put your back foot on the edge with your toes right
where they would start to curl over the pocket of the board.
your front foot should be put where it feels most comfortable. and a fraction of
a second after u scoop the pocket of the tale u will want to flick ur front foot
to the side of da board.bend your knees as u land to absorb the impact,and roll away.
keep on tryen em util u land it! it takes a lot of practice!

it’s all mental you know ….you have to love the game and work hard…think about what you are doing, visualize all your movements and remember what you did wrong and think about your trick on a scientific and physics level…how do you guys think Mullen got so good…..the improved cos I love skateboarding and I enjoy the thrill of it…I just wish I had more time to do it what I love….keep up the skating lads

try carpetboarding –take off your trucks, then stand on your board, on the carpet. work on kicks and ollies. when you can hit it, put the trucks back on and skate!

Hi, everyone has an opinion on this but I think the bearings might be a bit faster without the cover but the maintenance would be greater as to dirt and grime. a number of bearings have open shields on one side that are easier to lubricate but they always face inside, hope that helps, Howard
