:)This trick is SICKNASTY!!!
and best of all, no one in my town, Laconia NH can do it. it's gonna be killer to pwn people in skate with this beast! +rep to anyone that can help me with this, thanks SO much. I gotta make sure i learn it in the church parking lot across the street from my house, where only me and 1 friend (best friend haha) know about, so that no one sees it coming. Sounds lame maybe, but it's really gonna be fun for me ^^

in my town, to get respect, you do something unique. i used to be able to nollie 360 kiwiflip, but i stopped doing it for the summer, last month of it, and never skated in the winter really, so i cant do it often anymore (like 1/10 tries lol)

and that's how i got initial respect, i'm known as the kid, to this day "the kid who can do a nollie lazerflip!" lol narbs :)

put your front foot on the board in the middle and so that your toes are not QUITE touching the edge of the board, pop and flick your toe almost straight forward around an inch from the center of the nose, and at the same time get that backfoot out of the way. its gotta be a really swift flick straight up the middle. this is a trick that it always looks like your not gonna land it. but flips over just in time to land it. once you get it its easy.

best advice ever, I never think I'm gonna land mine and I've been credit carded more than once. I used to do mine with my foot in kickflip mode but they always went to the side. so put almost your whole foot on and just go for it. you also have to jump a bit more forward than an ollie I think. They're an absolute pain to get conistant and they take a lot of energy out of me. but they look ****in sweet
