if it's hitting your shins, you should try tucking your legs after you
flick and a way to practice the full flip is just flicking and landing with
one foot on the board (just don't do it too often or it will become a bad
habit) make sure that your foot is angled when dragging up for the kickflip
as well hope that helps a bit
I have used your 1/2 kick flip technique and I can land those almost every
time but when it comes to full spin kick flips I cant commit and my shins
are littered with bruises from it, do you have any other practise
techniques or do I just need more practise?
Yeah most of the time, I think it's my stance. Wish I had someone watch me
and show me what I'm doing wrong. I don't think I'm getting much pop, cause
i hardly go in the air plus with my front foot not sliding up the board it
doesn't really level it out :/
ahh yeah that's a big problem many people have glad you found that, because
when people come to me asking for tips, in my mind I think they are pretty
good with ollies and the like so I treat them as such Just keep on working
dude!
@foxdroad definetly, when people make how-to tips they only do it from
their perspective. I feel that slow motion adds on to how the trick is
performed and shows what isn't talked about. I'm glad it is helping you out
=]
You should! I'd love to see how much better you are after 3 years :P I
still can't get my Ollie down lol. My foot isn't sliding and when it does i
don't get much air. But I guess practice makes perfect. :D
Dude you have so much strength, I've seen guys that need to stretch there
leg all the way cause they can't kick flip good, but you just make a little
kick and bammmm! It flips really fast, nice job
I know what I think I'm doing wrong. I'm rushing into it, I'm not even
comfortable on the skateboard yet. Ill just skate around when I can try to
bail afew times and not break something :P
@slowmomike yea its just how your front foot doesnt come back fast enough
that makes it kinda ugly the flip is good and its pretty high.. it also
helps if you try to suck your knees up
@slowmomike cool man i have noticed down stair sets and stuff it helps a
lot if you bring your front foot back quicker.. but keep skating man. your
pretty good
@eryd14 Yeah I'm a huge backfoot catcher on this, but it never gives me any
problems. And I'm pretty sure I do suck em up, that's how I get em decently
high =]
@NARObear it makes it possible to slow the footage down significantly more,
as there are more frames to work with. or to rephrase, the more frames it
films with the more subtle details the camera captures, when you slow mo
you stretch each individual picture caught, stretch it enough and some
frames will go lost, resulting in chopping, this doesn't really happen on
high FPS cameras because of the abundance of individual frames.
@ChrisMcNugget i have a panasonic camcorder, but i just made this new
youtube channel and i was wondering...wat camera do u recommend or kno of
tht shoots good slomos like this but for a little less money??? sorry to
bother you.
@LeoZehn I don't think thats how he did this sorry man? The quality isn't
that great either. It looks like he just filmed at 60fps and then conformed
it to 30fps or something like thsat. I'm just wondering how he did it.
There's no such thing as a fakie cab either. A Caballerial IS a Fakie 360.
Half cab IS a fakie 180. So a fakie cab would just be a regular 360...
Fakie = backwards people, its not that hard to figure out. Example... a
fakie ollie and a switch nollie are the same thing. No one says switch
nollie because the accepted proper term is fakie ollie. Caballerial is just
a nickname for fakie 360's. Hope this helps someone, there's way to much
confusion over this topic.
Skate terminology sucks. I wish there was a WSC (World Skate Council) that
deliberated and decided on the names of all the tricks because there is so
much arguing about trick names. Then all these kids saying "Oh shit my
friend can do a triple hospital helicopter tractor rectal thermometer flip"
would shut the fuck up and stop making up names.
I dont get it why ppl dont just say caballerial or half cabs instead of
fakie full cab or fakie half cab.theres no nollie full cabs or nollie half
cabs, they're just nollie 3's or nollie 360's and nollie 180's
obviously they wouldn't call it nollie full cabs or half cabs because if
your riding switch if you do a trick flicking with your flicking foot it
can't be nollie and fakie at the same time
i dont get why people get soooo fucking caught up on what tricks are
called. it doesent matter. im gonna start calling these watermellon flips.
get mad.
@TimShizzlish So I have to agree with you because you're a no-lifer who
sits at home and gets angry over shit other people do for enjoyment?
Telling a fingerboarder to "go play with his toys" is like telling a rock
collect to "learn to be a geologist." It just doesn't make sence. You're
fucking pitiful, honestly, no one gives a fuck about what you think, so
save your breath. Accually, don't. Keep talking, so you can axficiate
yourself so I don't have to listen to you.
@epicferret1 Then you are a quitter. People that "can't skate" just don't
practice enough and aren't dedicated enough. Anyone can skate if you want
to (unless you are crippled lol). Like I said before, why would
fingerboarding even be remotely interesting to non-skaters? It's derived
from the same thing, except one is a sport and one is a hobby.
@TimShizzlish ohmygawd, you're going to make me cry. No really though, you
must have no life if you really want to sit at home all day commenting on
videos that you don't agree with. You realize no one gives a shit if you
think fingerboarding is gay? You're pretty sad, dude.
@epicferret1 exept you cant take a skate board everywhere. like school,
houses, winter, rain, cold. i used to be able to ollie a month ago and i
tried yesterday i cant anymore. its still fun to ride and manual tho :)
@epicferret1 That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard. If you aren't good
enough to skate, that's why you practice it. If you don't skate,
fingerboarding logically shouldn't even be interesting to you.
@johnerlive AHAHAAHAAHA just checked out your channel and saw your vids,
first: Stupid videos. Second: i was right about you being ugly as fuck .
Third: Drop your balls little 12 year old kthxbai
@johnerlive Dont judge a book by its cover. I bet your face is so fucked up
that you have to boost your self esteem by making fun of others. I dont
even want to see your ugly Fat ass self.
@iceboyj7 ive tried skating. i cant ollie while moving. fingrboaording s
completely different. its for ppl that cant skate or for ppl who like to to
both. you sir are a fagnugget
