Is a k flip kick flip well if it is>
put feet same spot as normal k flip and land with your foot on the tail and do a normal manuel from that pretty much

you just gotta play around with these to get them to work and find the position comfortable for you. you just have to get used to that balance and popping it out of manual and stuff. when i set up i put my front foot a little more off to side of my board in the direction of my heels than i do for a normal kickflip. and then i put my back foot i little farther up towards the bolts than i do for a normal kickflip because this is more comfortable for my manual. just play around with it and you'll get them.
theres a clip of me doin one in this montage http://www.ramprage.com/forums/media/data/520/spring_06_montage.wmv

It makes it alot easier if kick down when you do em. Since you can't jump as high, flicking down will flip it fast and keep it under you.

Pop and flick faster. You'll get them eventually.

No, never flick down. Ever.

Just watch Ronnie Creager or AVE skate. Then apply what you see to your skateboard.

i watch mullen... hes my idol.. him and vallely. i can do all that freestyle stuff but im justnot good at normal flips..... you say 3 flip and i say i cant but you say primo 3 flip and i say no problem, would you like me to land manual too? just doing stuff from manual is hard.. i got a nose stall and ollie up a stair and thats it...
but the point is--- im never on the pc exept school and they have everything blocked... i watch almost round 3. thats how i learned how to do kickflip underflips is by watching his placement... mullen is a god
