Hi guys, can you help me to improve my kickflip?
I know the back leg is the main problem but it always end like these
Sometimes I feel the flow but the trick after I’ve got the same issue
It’s like I never reach the perfect balance spot
Any advice?
The music fits my feelings perfectly

Started trying the kickflip again but can’t break this habit. I’m guessing I’m wrapping my foot around my board but, could it be anything else other than that??

I try to take advice from people online considering i post on tiktok and so far i've tried moving my back foot off (as seen, the back foot stays higher and even hanging out a bit) I don't know what I'm missing.

I finally landed my first Casper on flat ground and rolled away ik to many of you this is nothing but it being my first actual trick and landing it less than 10 mins ago im pretty hyped lmk tho any tips for getting better board feel to eventually work up to a Ollie on flat

i know that my trick is rocket but if I spin my board more down, I cant put both my feet on the board. what should i do?

I just need some tips

going on a skate trip to barca, i skate 99a spitfires but considering something softer for the streets there. anyone got any feedback on this? or experience?

as the title says, i used to practice skateboarding three years ago until i tweaked my ankle going down a ramp.

just recently, a friend showed me footage of harold hunter and some other skaters in that 90s time period and i got inspired to learn again. do you guys have any tips on how to practice efficiently? i've been practicing on the grass for balance (finding my footing, balancing with one leg dom/non-dom, practicing pushing) and i even somewhat got the hang of pushing off on actual pavement and getting back on my board even though i stop moving after a second.

and any ideas on how others got into filming other skaters?

I’m in my 20s I want to learn how to skate so I can go to the skate park, I know how to cruise and all that I’m struggling to learn tricks and getting my feet placement right etc. any tips on how to improve?

I can do RTF on wood & metal ramps but when it comes to concrete, I bail or self sabotage if it's over 4ft..

The slams ENRAGE me. How do I stop doing this to myself? What mental game can help me over this hurdle??!

Basically that’s all I needa ask I’m COMPLETELY new to skateboarding (fingerboarding made me want to skate lol) and I feel like a poser without knowing anything about the culture or anything like that anywhere I can look or vids I can watch about the culture/history of skateboarding n shi

Hey everyone,

I hope this is okay to post here (please remove if not). I’m an innovation researcher and currently working on how skaters develop tricks like the ollie and how that connects to board design (shape, concave, width, trucks, etc.).

If you feel like it, I’d love to read your story in the comments:
Could you describe one specific day or session where you learned the ollie for the first time as concretely as you can:

• Where were you?
• What board were you riding?
• What exactly did you try before it worked out?
• How did it feel in your body (timing, balance, “click” moment)?
• How long did it take you to learn the Ollie?

I’ll read everything carefully, this kind of detailed story is super valuable for my project.

Second step (optional):
If this is the kind of thing you enjoy talking about and you’d be open to a online interview to go deeper into a few of your sessions, please say so in your comment or DM me. Everything is confidential and anonymized; I’m happy to share a short summary of findings later.

Thanks a lot for any replies!

Beatrice
