Iliketoskate 05-29-2008, 11:31 PM I think thats fast I learned them in like 2 months. got them to what they are now in about 8 which is knee or above everytime guess thats not that great but I'm proud.

I noticed that they were pretty easy to get the rotation and everything. But to perfect them and get heigth is pretty rough. ricta_rules 05-29-2008, 11:39 PM Keep practicing. I noticed that they were pretty easy to get the rotation and everything. But to perfect them and get heigth is pretty rough. ya my ankles are all bashed up and bruised i hate that its like getting hit in the shin with a bat Iliketoskate 05-29-2008, 11:39 PM lol there pretty low i could mayb kick one over 1 deck any tips on getting them higher? getting them higher. just keep practincing and getting them consistent also get your ollies higher(if you don't have them high already). and just ollie then flick thats the key ollie then flick. its hard to explain.. AJ 05-29-2008, 11:45 PM took me about a month to learn kicks. i was so stoked when i finally landed one ricta_rules 05-29-2008, 11:49 PM took me about a month to learn kicks. i was so stoked when i finally landed one ya dude same here but then i didnt land one the rest of the day lol griptape 05-30-2008, 01:04 AM i hated learning them, i cant do them anymore because i didnt skate in so long. But when i could, it was so brutal. id get one maybe every 30 tries. ugh. ricta_rules 05-30-2008, 01:31 AM same here and my ankles would bleed sometimes they still do dont_do_it 05-30-2008, 03:40 AM Best way to get height is to pop the tail hard, jump a bit higher and flick your foot later. Hard to land big kickflips though. Basically, get your ollies super tight and high, then just apply that to your kickflips ricta_rules 05-30-2008, 09:42 AM Best way to get height is to pop the tail hard, jump a bit higher and flick your foot later.
