Cool. I am 41 as well, and I am going to tackle the fs flip the coming week. I watched this video for the first time today and I hope that it will be of some help! How did your fs flip turn out? :-)

magnus soderbom I still haven't done it. I landed the the three flip at 42 but the fs flip turned out something almost impossible for me. If you wish, check the three flip saga on my channel. Good luck!

***** Cool, I will definitely check that out. I just landed my first 3 flip a couple of weeks ago. I recon that the 3 flip is actually easier than the fs flip. I also put out some content now and then, check it out if you have a boring moment in life. 😅
I watched this... 30 minutes later... I got frontside flips!

+Raees Usman thank you dude!!
this tip really helped. none other helped me visualize and focus on what to do better than this video so thanks. that was the hardest thing I've ever done. ever. it didn't come easy to me. I was outside for 4 hours straight today and I finnally got it. I got a couple it was getting easier and easier the more tired I got haha. stoked but I want to have them on lock
John I reallly appreciate all the effort you put in your videos and i like them very much :) this one was very helpful, fs flips I had them down, but with the tips you gave, the form is so much better now :B keep doing these kinds of videos :) if you want you could maybe think about one where you cover hardflips and give advanced tips:) thank you and have a great day. Greetings from Germany!
I really like these man I can do a lot of tricks but I feel like my style really needs work so these help a lot thanks
Thaank you for doing this tut man!!! Idk y i have such trouble w this trick. In my opinion its one of the dopest lookin tricks of all time lol i want it!
Im going skating today and I'm landing my first frontside flip. The other day i decided to give it one good commited try and got pretty close and close after the next couple attempts. Just cant wrap my mind around the trick, but i think this video helped me a lot. I haven't skated in 2 days and I'm feeling that extra motivation today that usually gets me to land something new and to push my limits. This video helped a lot with that motivation too. Sorry for long post will come back with results. Confident i will land my first one today after years of envy. P.S i think you actually got that quote from me ;)
im liking this in 2016 cause im so close to getting this trick back now im keen to try again tommorow.. so good at tips john
John, best fs flip trick tip vid I've seen on youtube. Question... Your back foot looks square on the tail, but you said to put it in the left/right pocket. So should I square center and push outward like a front shove? Thanks!
this makes a lot of sense because i was trying to fs flip over a flatbat on a bank to bank but my fs flips a really muska but i have a really good kickflip so i was grying to do a solid 90 degree kickflip and keep rotating. thanks John!!
The trick i mastered.my fav trick ever.can do anything out of a frontside flip.frontside double flips,frontside flip switch mannys,frontside flip indys,a weird front side 360 flip.mastered all those and more.
great tutoooorial man, helped a lot. More please!!! :)
Thanks man, I was just working on this.
thnks so much!! I just learned Fs Flips bc of this video thank u
the scop helps a lot ,thanks
This is definitely going to help me
Thanks man just landed my first fs flip!
Nice vids dude i sub, keep going!!
Yo John I've watched this trick tip and many others, this video really helped but I still can't figure out how to get my left foot (I'm regular) out of the way, any tips on how to flick my foot out of the way? Thanks. Love the videos keep it up
great tips , and outro lol
I can't frontside flip yet but this totally worked for front heels. Great tips!

Damn my frontside flips were always Muska flips and I could only land them one footed because of how awkward it flipped but this helped me so much
thumbs up 👍
hey think u can do a smith or feeble grind trick tip?
I kinda like doing it muska-ish. Anyone else? Not a full on musk flip, more like a hardflip. It feels great. Anyone?
having fs shuvs helps with the whole foot in the pocket thing
Yo John i always land 90 when I try frontside flip. I’m not good at pivot the board. Ants tips
Its all in the ARMS!!! Thats The Secret To Skateboarding!!!
Ayo this makes sense thx homes
only way i can do em proper is on banks for some reason, on flat i tend to catch it in wheelbite modus :p (so i kinda gave up) guess i need to get back to work!
Chad's look the best.
the reynolds video is how i learned them too haha
Funny! I always does a hard flip with a 180 body turn and it’s a fs flip too, but felt just wrong. Never was able to stop hardfliping until I tried to put my front foot just under the nose as you described in your video. Switch it doesn’t happen to me, but regular it was kinda weird and not the way I wanna do fs flip... thx for that!
i can't skate it's raining ; ( i try this tips another day ;) and nice trick tips , do more technical tricks tips with drawing the scoop the shoulders and all of that because its really helping men thanx ;D
