Recently i was skating and i discovered something that makes kickflips alot easier that the stickies had left out.......speed. Kickflips, as it turns out, are really easy to land when you are going really fast. This tip only works helps with the landing not the flipping so you need to be able to flip it good. The extra speed causes your body to want to jump higher. Im not sure why it is but when i go really fast i seem to be able to jump higher and pull my legs up faster. Hope this helped.

what you need to do is open up the skin cuz its very very dangerous to hav e internal bleeding.

Yeah... that's what I said in my other post, Spenser. And I guess that's up to you. It doesn't matter to me because I got a new board and I was using the old one.

That's gotta be the most annoying thing, getting your skate buddies round your house, watching a skate video to pump you up for skating, then stepping outside.... and it starts raining! :-7:
Anyways I'm still learning kickflips so when I'm next skating I'll see if that makes it any easier.
