1. Kickflip: When I do a 1 I usually land in ollie position, back foot on the tail and front foot in the middle. Vary rarely do I land on the bolts

2. 360 Shove It: I always land on the nose.

3. Heelflip: I just cant land them moving. I can land them 75% of the time standing still, but I havent landed 1 moving yet.


Any Tips?

1. jump forwards a bit, or dont flick it forwards
2. I dk, cant bs shuvit lol
3. you have to kick outwards/forwards more..
uhh, good luck bro. What I found helpful was learning to ollie 50-50 onto a gutter, so I can get the footing right.

For the 360 shuv let more of your back foot hang off so you get a better scoop. Usually you land on the nose because the board pivots around the back wheels and it actually makes the whole board move back a little, so let more of your back foot hang off so you can force it to spin around the middle of your board rather than the back wheels.

Greenday, I'm guessing your talking about letting more of my toes hang off the board?

because you just said foot

1.kickflips - just practice, and you'll start landing on the bolts sooner or later
2. 360 shuv - listen to greenday, he knows what he's talking about. just get a better scoop so it won't pivot on the back trucks.
3. heelflips - describe what your problem is when you try them moving. you either aren't commiting or your doing them differently moving. just treat them exactly like you do when your stationary, just remember, the more toe you hang off, the more heel to hang off. and you need to roll your ankle more than flick.

My heelflips dont flip the whole way when I try them moving.

just make sure your rolling your ankle off right at the pocket of the concave. that will help you flip it better. maybe try hanging some more toe off too.

Heelflips aren't literally heelflips. Don't try just kicking it with your heel, like down or out. You have to flick up the board still. Just play with foot positions, thats what people don't understand. They try the same thing over and over and it never gets any better.
