Even though I can kickflip it's fun to watch these tutorials because they are filmed so well and aaron has taking his teaching to an art form in a way that it's so comprehensible

This is exactly how I learned to skate. Especially slowing a reply down in skate 3😂.

1. Your voice is so gentle and calming 2. The slowmo and the physics is epic 3. The explanations make me feel like I could master this 4. Can I do this on a 38” longboard

I'm in my 30's and getting back into skating. Love all your videos. This one in particular is so cool and super helpful. Thanks for being such a great and dedicated skate teacher Aaron.

I been watching braille videos for a steady year now waiting to be well enough to skate again. Been building my new board and buying skate shoes again. Going to the skatepark and remembering how to push and pump and Ollie. I finally feel like I'm ready to start trying kickflips and YOU DROP A BRAND NEW HOW TO KICKFLIP VIDEO????? Making me feel like time is in my side 👏👏👏👏

I wanted to express my sincere thanks for your amazing videos. Your dedication to skateboarding and the quality of your content inspired me to rediscover my love for skating after years away. Without your videos, I might never have picked up a board again. Your professionalism and passion are evident in every video, creating a community that encourages and motivates skaters like me. Thank you for reigniting my passion for skateboarding

Thanks to practice step 3 I’ve landed nearly 100 kickflips. At 33 it’s such a blessing. I still struggle, but I used to think it was impossible. THANK YOU AARON!

Nice work!

I can’t stress how much this slow mo helped me! The slightly jumping before the tail pop and the knee continuing up were the two things that helped me get this trick next try. Thank you so much Aaron!

Love the ultra slo mo, really shows how the trick forms , also shows just how tiny of a area you have on the board to flick or it won’t rotate correctly

Such a great, detailed breakdown of the kickflip! I wish I could have seen this like 2 years ago when I grinding on learning these. Great work 👊

Great great great video really stands out from other kickflip tutorials I’ve seen. It’d be nice to see this with other tricks like the pressure flip or tre flip

Immediately had to get on the skateboard and try some things out. Got a better flick and able to bend the back knee more but still working on it, super helpful!

Thanks Braille, such a great tutorial!

All I got to say is wow!! this is so helpful!!! I have a solid kick flip but this footage really shows the fine tuning I've been needing for a moving kick flip up a curb

I landed my first kick flip I’ve been skating two days and your videos has helped me massively thanks arron btw I’ve been watching you for 5 years now your the person who got me into it

this tutorial is awesome! I really like how it’s really showing every practice step but with real word physics(if that makes sense lol) I hope we’ll get similar one for ollie. Thank you Aaron and Braille team

Wow, this super slow motion take is something else! Thanks!!

I learned the jump before you pop thing earlier this week, it's great to see it backed up here! I'm almost ready to try kickflip (I just learned pop shove it) but this approached worked for getting my ollies higher

these tutorials really help thanks braille 😎😎

First minute!, you guys are just purely AWSOME thanks you!❤

The new camera is awesome. So exciting! Thank you for making this!!!

the sheer number of slomo shots in this is worth its weight in gold, looking forward to the next ones!

What I learned to get the flip to flip better was to put my back foot a little heel side on the tail. This made the board start to spin to heel on the pop letting my toe drag contact the board better which resulted in a better flick. Until I did this, the front foot was missing the grip tape more than half the time!

Thank you for your input; I'm going to have to try this myself

If you feel like you can do a trick but your board can't stay still, then find something to reduce the amount of movement like a crack in your patio or near your local grocery shop, then bring a lawn chair that folds (for easier carrying) then hold onto the back of the chair, and practise popping with soft wheels (if you're getting confident then move on to hard wheels) then you (just like me) will learn appropriately 2X faster than but you will have to practise ALOT but after the weeks go by and you record yourself then you can compare and see how big of a difference. REMEMBER The Progress You Make WILL Add Up Over Time. After you have absolutely mastered the ollie, the next step should move on to the shuvit, pop shuvit or the heel/kickflip 😃👍

You guys killed it with this one! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Hello, Aaron. Great tutorial. The best thing on this video is you showing how you pop your back foot backwards as you hit the tail into the ground. That helps a lot with ollies and other tricks. It makes the board grips better into your front foot. I would just say that my front foot flips the board just like yours, very diagonal. A flip more forward, gonna make the trick goes much higher. Lets say the middle of the board is totally foward, as in the ollie, and we´re sliding the front foot 45 degress off. Something around that middle, let´s say 25 degrees gonna use more of the nose and the kicks gonna pop very high. Cheers.

Your videos are the only reason I was able to learn almost 10 years ago!

I’ve been skating off and on for years and since the very beginning I’ve always had an extremely high Ollie but I could not get my kickflips off the ground. As soon as I watched the slow motion clip I had the AHA moment and then you even talked about it. It never occurred to me that I should be popping the tail without forcing my back foot into the ground before coming up. Thanks!

Busy learning the kickflip. You killed it with this one! Long overdue but I subbed.

This video helped me land my first kickflip I'm 30 and been skating since I was a kid. get you some motivational friends and watch these videos and land those tricks!

Thanks for your tip! Best team ever!

Will be using this!!! Thank you Braille (:

Awsome. New vidbarrived just un time for me to wait until spring to practice.

Gonna give that a few minutes on my pre work session this morning. I wish my younger self had patience. It's just as hard learning but being older I have a better understanding of repetition. I really like this style of tutorial, keep it up.

I don't care what anyone says... Your tutorials are crisp Aaron!

Hi Aaron, thanks for the great vid. As someone who's learning the kickflip, I find it helpful to work on a rolling kickflip that's quick and low-to-the-ground - maybe referred to as "lazy" (?). Anyway, I'm interested in the analysis of different kickflip types, including the above mentioned. Thanks and keep up the great work.

The super slowmo really helped me clean up my kickflips. Jumping with the back foot before the flick is something I’ve never thought of. Excited for more of these tutorials

Great slow mo I’m gonna go out and try again with this new slow Mo information. Thanks, Aaron.

Ooooh that tilt the board with the back foot I missed that one. In the previous tutorials did it anyway. The front foot practice step helps tremendously.

YOOOO thank you! I really hope this helps me. I been struggling alot so I'm excited to watch and hopefully learn more. Btw, I got the braille mystery box 2.0 and I LOVE my board and gear. I'm currently in Alabama on vacation in gulf shores repping my braille gear from my box 😁 they've got some cool parks here.

Very useful! Thank you

The slow motion is so helpful and I beg you to use it in athor videos I also love you’re videos ❤❤❤

Somehow these videos hit my feed and I’ve been enjoying them immensely. Funny thing is, I dug out my last board out from when I was a teen (I’m 38 now). Never realized when my friend grip taped it he cut out the kick flip line in the grip tape for me. Never realized why it was there.

I've been skating for like 20 years but this has changed the way I look at how tricks work. I feel like i'm going to be a better skater just for watching this.

The pop and flick are essentially at the same time. The instant the tail makes contact with the ground it begins to rotate, the impact of the pop at the start of rotation is what keeps the board from being propelled away from your back foot and out in front during the flick. It’s literally less than 0.2 of a second. It’s also the reason I’ve only been able to land with my front foot most of the time. Timing is ABSOLUTELY critical. The steps are executed faster than an Ollie.

I am a longboarder but I enjoyed your teaching alot. When I do kickflip I am really kick down. But as you say, every time the longboard rotates and I lands on it l, I am super stoked.

Omg Iearned so much and it’s don’t look so scary anymore ❤

I got the ollie on movement this Friday, today i saw this video and i went straight to practice the kickflip, i can land it with the front foot on it, but just because i didn't finish the video!!!! Now everything make more sense, this video and your explanations really help me, first day practicing the kickflip (2hrs) and i almost got it just if would've finished the video probably i could've landed it 😂

I'm almost done with my finals and finally have free time to skate again. I've had kickflips down before but I rolled my ankle pretty badly when I was practicing them and it took a while to get over the mental wall. I learned one way to have the board below you is to bend your upper body towards your knee when you jump almost like youre trying to knee your own face. Also one trick that may or not work is to slightly jump backwards or atleast think that you are jumping backwards, it helps the board stay under you.

That makes perfect sense the back foot jump. Yes ...Thank you!

Of course

Its amazing what seeing proper form can do for you. Im 33 years old and stopped skating when I was 15. Braille inspired me to skate again after watching skate videos and tutorials constantly. After 18 years without touching a skateboard I landed a kickflip first try, and I actually feel like I have a better grasp on the proper technique than when I was a kid. I could Kickflip easily as a kid but I didnt flick off the nose and it made my kickflips stay really close to the ground and with heelflips it would take a few attempts where I would miss the flick with regular popsicle moments. After landing a kickflip first try I landed a heelflip on my second try which blew my mind. Its all about the technique, flick up at an angle, not down or forward. Great video. Thanks for inspiring me to start back up again. Videos like this are going to make it easy to surpass my 15 year old self.

Hi dude..🤙 I am 49 years old and restarting skateboarding after 23 !!! I've been skating for 4months now and love it. Even theo so much has changed. I can olly "frontside 180 and backside 180", pop shuv are not the best broad side "some times" grinds are Abit of hit and miss. But I could never work how to fick my deck fast enough. This tip video helps a lot..! Any tips of how to get over fear to land it.. and the fear of drop in. Keep up the great videos.. Yours john

Thankyou so much

Derek needs this

I´ll call Aaron "KF GUURU" from this day on. So much love for the community. Haven't stood on a Skateboard since i was.. like 11 years old, when my Idol at this time, on his step to become a pro-skater died in a tragic accident and i never stepped on a Skateboard again. I'm 42 now.

Sweeeeet video! Want to see every thick now on Slow Mou :)

Any advice for over rotating and catching with the back foot? What about weight distribution? Do you jump backwards or heelside at all?

HI Aaron may I point out that the flicking motion of your front foot in kcikflip is very different from the simulated stationary drag. In kickflip your front foot actually rotates around the axis of your lower leg, whereas you cannot simulate this motion in a stationery drag when your foot is simply flicking upwards.

I know a video cannot make you land it, but this video helped me finally unlock the kickflip. The foot placement, flick placement, and not kicking down is what did it for me. I'm forever thankful! Almost 40, and finally getting consistent kickflips lol

More slow mo vids with the crew😊😊😊 tricks and stuff

That's a sick board

“Extreme repetition” is the key here. I started working on kickflips about a year and a half ago, and I got a few along the way… but I’m only getting close to consistent (like, 1 in 5 rolling) within the last month or so. It took me easily 10,000 reps to get to here. Two keys for me were popping the board backward to pull it into my flicking foot, and consciously jumping backside a bit to actually land on it after its rotation. I personally think you exaggerate the “flick” motion as something conscious as an ankle flex motion… in my experience so far, it’s more about leading with the knee and kicking with a relaxed foot. The “flick” occurs because the foot is temporarily held back by the board before it follows through. Also, at least at first, it’s not so much that you can watch and catch the board with the back foot… it’s more that you just have to commit to jumping where the board is landing, and catching happens as almost a side effect. I suspect this evolves with more practice, though. Next, I’m trying to actually kickflip over cracks, and that extra piece of timing is a battle all over again. Little by little!

Nice progress and good luck with the goal of kick flipping over cracks

I actually have the same isse as Derek with my back foot shooting back. It so strange and I think I am doing it as a direct reaction to trying to flick my front foot. It really is tough habit to break.. I did get a kickflip the other day on carpet but man that back foot still shoots back after the pop.. I even have both knees bent crazy high mid way through the kickflip. WIld. Thanks for the sick vid Aaron.

I landed Ollie front shuv back shuv fakie shuv don’t understand difference between fakie and switch then the pop shuv variants then the 180 then heel now need kick flip dose it count if I pocket flip?

Yeah u got any tips on how to do a trick while riding cause am goofy footed so I push with my left leg so I wanna learn how to pop with my left while I flick my foot up with my left leg its hard for some reason but when I stand still on my board and use my left leg to flick up its easy

My brother gave me the best advise possible and now I can Ollie at least about 5 cm at most about 20cm

I have all the shove variations, backside boardslides, front and back 50-50’s, frontside 5-0’s, blunt stalls, Slappy grinds, just learned drop ins! I’ve landed a Heelflip once and get the rotation. I sit too much in the back pocket though and the board shoots in front of me and my back foot doesn’t get high enough. Still trying to dial them down.

Trying tre flips currently and my body keeps rotating. What do I do??

Nice tutorial

I wonder if our back foot is leaving the board prior to the actual pop in all Ollies/ollie tricks

WE NEEEEEED A HEELFLIP SLOWMO TUTORIAL !!! 🤘

I think if i time the flick with the back knee bend it will solve all my problems!!! Slow motion is sweet as honey!

I have been working on my kickflips for a few months, and my flips have worsened. The first month was the best, and I was getting close to landing it. However, it has been going downhill now with my kickflips, and my board is flying backward now.

I always had the issue of only being able to flip it all the way at the expense of shooting it forward. It seems that if I want it to stay under me, I have to sacrifice flipping it all the way. My theory is that I'm flicking too early and/or not giving the board enough pop. I think more pop would direct the flick off the board's edge more than forward.

Thanks for the tutorial it really helped, I just have a question on how to stay over your board, because when I try my board usually flys forward rather then stays under me. Any tips?
