I can do any trick possible including a 1080 quadflip. Flatground. Actually I need some help on my inward heelflips on vert. But shh don't tell anyone.

I showed you how to ollie in the one thread made by cyrticpoet.

Kickflips, don't even try them yet.

Heelfliips, get kickflips frist.

Manual, all practice

Ollie real high, tuck in, and just practice.

Ollie real high - try bringing your knee up near your face once your in the air.
180 - ollie higher, and spin faster. Use your shoulders to wind up and get a good spin.

^ Lean forward, you have to find the balance point.

180 - can't spin all the way around (about a 160)
^ Practice doing nose pivots the way you are spinning, then try doing your 180 and when you land, pivot the rest of the way.

kickflips - cant even spin
^ You need to gain either leg strength, or flick technique, takes time, don't worry about them.

heelflips - the board always lands upside down
^ Same with kickflips, but I'd say, once you can ollie consistently, the start trying 'em.

manual - how can i balance better?
^ It's just practice. What helps me is; find two cracks in the road or something, and just practice manualing from one to the other. That's how I learned, now I do that with high boxes!

ollie real high - can only ollie over like 1 or 2 bricks, how do i get higher??

^ Leg strength. It comes with practice. Just ollie alot, I used to have trouble doing ollies over cracks in the road, but with practice I can do about 4-5 decks now.

with boardslides: 1)dont ollie on to it if you dont have to switch on as if you're doing a nose slide remember to keep you're back foot on the tail or just in front of the bolts 2) lean back slightley and keep you're weight centred lean back slide then switch you're weight an use you're arms to turn an bring you're board off then roll away.

ollies:this is the milestone to other tricks and maybe the most important of all tricks to learn:stand centred on the board with you're back foot on the tail depending on how high you go or want to go put you're foot on just before the trucks the ollie is all one motion push down on your tail snapping youre front foot up to the nose by this time you shoule be in mid-airlevelk out on your board then as the board goes back down to the floor stay centred and keep in the centre of the board after getting this trick stationary try ollieing objects an up objects curbs , boxes , ledges etc.

180 ollies:the 180 comes in 2 different variations front side and back side both are very hard and weird at first but whats skating without a challenge? :ollie as you usually would but 180's are all in the arms ollie but swing your arms round the way you want to go front side back side or for more complex tricks even 360's etc.

manuals:looks easy but all comes with practice: this trick is all about balance and endurance just slowley bring up your nose and use your arms to keep you're weight with the board while still rolling on the back 2 wheels or front 2 for a nose manual both are the same movement when you feel you've done a decent manual bring you're nose back down and roll away.

heelflips:heelflips are pretty much a variation of the kickflip but in some peoples eyes harder and more awkward 2 do:stand in the position for an ollie but put your toes slightley hanging over the edge like the kick flip pop the deck and drag your foot up but instead of kicking toward your toes kick out with the heel oif your foot let the board rotate stay centred land and roll away.

once you have most of these basics down try different tricks or try them out on obstacles and even making lines out of them(linking them together)good luck.

Losing your dick???? Or maybe the ass? I'm not sure.

[StevoElSupremo]

your not gonna lose your dick trying to boardslide, unless your dick sits under ur nuts where it can be crushed....freak

[FlashFlip]

ya boardslides always scared me but you just have to lean forward at the beginning. leaning forwad too much is better than too little, its all about personal preference and howyou learn things
