I really want to learn a flamigo too, nobody knows how to do it though.

180 No-Comply..Put your weight on your front foot, slip it off. Your back foot will pop automatically..with the foot on the ground spin yourself 180 as the board does a 180 by itself.

Pretty ez.

This is for goofy skaters so for regualr just switch sides/feet around.

For flamingo you need to put your front foot on the nose of the board pointing parellel to the edge of your board on the right side (for goofy). put your back foot in the middle of the board pointing directlly across the board and sligtlly over the toe edge.

Somthing like this

Pop your front foot down and place it on the ground. as the board come up inbetween your legs you need to bring your back foot around at catch it between your legs. you can then move it back and forth by moving your legs sligtly. When you want to land it simply move your feet appart and let it drop to the ground and then jump on it.

I hope this makes sense it it a vey hard trick to describe how to do. if you want i will film myself doing one and post it so you can see what to do propally if that will help more.

By the way this screws up your shins if you do it wrong. P.S. sorry for the spelling

It's actually called a calf wrap..... that's another name THPS screwed up. A flamingo is a one footed nose pivot, then you roll fakie on one foot, and turn (not spin, 4 wheels down) another 180. It's called that because you stand on one foot, like flamingos.
