[FlowBoi]

Sorry Typo
_________
1. Let your toes hang off the edge of your board

[Skate or Try]

lol, might wanna tell him the typo.

[Flipstreetskate]

yea seriously dude.... its also called the edit button

now for skate or die... when i heelflip i set up basically in ollie position with my toes barely hanging off the side, i ollie and kick out hard and bring my foot back. i barely heelflip and my heelflips are wonderful. also focus more on kicking than sliding your foot.

[FlowBoi]

I did tell you below where I said typo

[Sk8 Or DiE]

damn that shits hard

[FlowBoi]

Yea it is but you will get used to it. Jump as high as you can.

[NIGhtMAre]

flowboi, your sig is disgusting.

[zeronoah]

haha "sk8 or die" walkin cliche there...

heelflips, easier than kickflips.

front foot in ollie position
pop hard with back foot
slide the front foot up and out
pick legs up high
slam down on bolts

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL Heelflip person!

[grimreaper65]

shutup,

Heel flips, really easy, learnt in like a day, if it doesn't flip enough, then kick more foward if you can't land your back foot, kick on more of an angle, if you can't land you're back foot, i don't know i didn't have that problem

[moneyman]

look on Transworld they sometimes have it in the trick help section

I should call you hoover cause you're suckin hard...haha, just kidding bro.

Heels for dummies :)

1) I setup with one foot on the tail in the normal position for an ollie, so you can get good pop. With my front foot, I place it a little past the middle of the board, and *I* don't hang my toes over, but most people do, so I'd try it like that first. Just hang them over a little to begin with, cause I think they look better without having half your foot off the board.

2) Once you're in this position, bend down WITH YOUR LEGS, I always tell people to keep their back straight, and don't lean forward whatsoever. Bend down completely with your legs, and no back, I can't stress this enough -it will solve landing problems.

3) Jump, and kick your foot FORWARD not to the side, kick it like you're jumping up to ninja kick a guy in the balls..

4) "Suck" your legs up as much as you can. BOTH of them...this will make sure the board flips nicely.

5) Landing in the beginning is usually just luck, but once you get em solid, you can actually see the griptape, them stomp the landing with time to spare.

Practice, practice, practice. Like any trick, you just gotta do it over and over till you get it.

Yoda..signing out. :)
