well, if it goes behind your back (to the side), the jump behind you in that direction. I don't really think that you can jump in the direction of your tail and do a kickflip, and you'd probably hurt yourself. When he says jump forward, he probably means to jump in the direction of the nose. Basically, just follow the board.

I had trouble with my Kickflips, but due to copying of the thread I am getting them down about 90% of the time.

The previous two are really good ideas. I should try that.

P.S. Before anybody gets mad at me, and says "WTF are giving this guy trick tips when you can't do a kickflip? Dumbass!!", i just want to say i was only interpreting what the other guy said, so the person could understand what he means. I know I really shouldn't of done that. I just want to be of some use, rather than just sit there asking a billion people how to ollie higher.

Well for me it helped me learn how to kickflip by holding on to a net on a basketball hoop. It might be hard, but it really helped me. also just practice.
