ha-ha, you have shittier spots than yoda_emo :-) seriously though, tre-flips are all bout the back foot, and barely about the front foot. at all. and try to flip it more smoothly, that video was completely sloppy. good luck :-)

I don't want to start a new Tre thread, so I'll help this guy out as most I can and then post my troubles.

I had my Tre's ALOT worse than yours. What I do now is I don't flip at all actually, I just scoop as much as I can. Try not to scoop just back, but scoop around you. Like your back foot is doing half of an O. Also, try to push the board forward so you can land in the middle, not on the nose. Good luck!

Now my problem, my Tre problem pretty much goes like this, I can now get a good looking rotation everytime. The only thing is, I can't callibrate the flick into it, or else it only goes Varial. So I point my front foot as much as I can, so when I scoop and my front foot automatically comes off, it kind of tilts the board a bit so it flips without me actually flicking.

I land the Tre upside down everytime. Should I just try and put the flip in there, or does anybody do it the way I do it too?

[skizzate]

It's all in the scoop. I can tre completely backfoot if I want to. Just scoop it and when you do push it infront of you too, towards the nose. I put my frront foot close to the front bolts because it makes for a more controlled flick.

I get alot farther from landing Tre's whe I actually spin, it's driving me bananas!
