i'm beginning to like tech stuff alot, all kinds of flip tricks and stuff. like underflip variations and what not.

my first goals are shuv-it underflips and 360 underflips, maybe in all stances, idk. also kiwiflips, most hopefully "switch 360 kiwiflip and nollie 360 kiwiflip" those are also goals

any advice on starting tech?

(also eventually feather flips, and pressure flip/ late flip variations) wow i'll have fun this summer :tongue:

check through my youtube account starting from thwe last page, thats the porder in that io learned tricks, i went from kickflips and stuff and now backfoot lasers (sig), feathers and stuff


click the pics in my sig for the youtube page

I'm thinking of trying tech to. But i'm gonna suck it up. lol


OMG you've gotten soooo much better 7evenup. how long have you been skating now?

a year and 5 months or so in total

I'd say pressure late flips are some of the easiest "tech tricks".

Once you have the foot placement those aren't too hard.

shove unders are a good starting point though, kiwiflips took me much longer.

that's insanely good for one and a half years of skating. Your youtube account says your 27, here it says your 14...which are you? =).

Great skating!

wow 7evenup i just watched all your vids :) you really progressed fast, from that first vid with "woman" by wolfmother hahahaha nice varial flips ;)

then all of a sudden i turn the page, BANG inward heel, backfoot lazer, pressures, hospital flips, and feather flips (actually that was in like 2 pages but NICE)

awesome developement dude :)

i've been skating like..erm...10 months or so, i started actually 2 years ago, but i only skated for the 3 month summer, then i didn't skate at all in the winter, idk why..i had passion for skating, and i loved it more than anything, but idk what i did in the winter, same thing last year, but i skated 2 months past summer before letting my bro snap my deck, then i just snowskated for the summer. (they're just ilke decks with no trucks/wheels) so i didn't skate much. now i'm back for another like almost 2 months or so, so oops.. wait its less... um yeah about 10 months :0 in 2 months i'll make a rate me, so i can call it a year lol then i'll just never stop ^^

i skate tech since the summer of 2006 - 2007 try to put your foot every wear on the board to do the tricks is the key dont stay with one position of the foot to learnd a tricks and dont give up
Merging doublepost
easy tricks to try are late shvoe it , half flip half heelflip , all the backsi tricks with body and croos foot

Got a brief definition of what "tech skating" is? I dont get what it is

Technical skateboarding.

Like lateflips, pressure flips, under flips, body varials, and crossfoots.

That's not tech skating, just goofy flip trick variations.

but wouldn't a 360 shove it underflip or late flip be tech? and pressure flip late flips and stuff? because didn't sskatess say pressure late flips were the easier tech tricks?

i don't know why i put body varials and cross foots though.
i was tired and it was late.
Underflips, late flips and all those flatground tricks that are often poorly done anyway because most of the skaters who do them use the seeming difficulty of the tricks as an excuse for their sketchiness are technical too...


Isn't that what i said?
