Heel flips and 180s.

Be sure to master the tricks before moving on to new ones. Will make learning new tricks faster and funner. I don't mean be able to like kickflip down a 10 set. I mean just be able to land the tricks 10/10.

A fun trick to do is a Caveman or a Bomb Drop

Caveman: Is where you carry the board by the nose, then you holsd it infront of you jump and place it underneath you while in the air, meh, sounds a little too easy? Try a Bomb Drop: Its exactly the same but you do it off heights so maybe start off a curb, then a ledge then who knows the fender on top of the hard rock cafe??

for an awesome vid search danny way bomb drop on youtube (itīs the first one enjoi)

Hope i helped :P

You could try learning 180 ollies, maybe varials or heelflips.

I'll make you a small list. Lists always make everything clear for me, it might with you. Just to get a feel of what you might want to learn.

Ollie - Regular, fakie, switch and tranny, oh and nollie.
Shuv - reg, fakie, switch, nollie, and tranny if you feel like it.
180 - reg and fakie, and FS. Switch is a little more advanced, but definitely cool to learn.
Bigspin - reg and fakie. Nollie if your nollie shuvs are cool.
Kickflip - Reg, switch, fakie and nollie.

There. That should keep you busy for a while. I found it easiest to learn all tricks regular consistent, then fakie consistent, then nollie consistent. Switch too.

You want quarter/mini too?

Rock to fakie
Rock 'n roll - FS and BS
Axle stall - FS and BS
50-50 - Basically the same stuff like axle stalls, you'll be able to do them before you try them if your axles are good.
5-0, feeble, smith, and tailstalls. All quite simple stuff, and quite easy to learn. It helps to get good bs and fs kickturns.

There you go bro.

you should def. check out lukEASY's sticky, it is a very good guide,
but i would suggest after kickflips learn varial kickflip, 360 kickflip, then hardlflip.
after you get heelflips then learn varial heelfip then lazer flip(360 heelflip), and then inward heelflip.
all those tricks are explained in the guide i think.
hope i helped.

Shuv its, pop shuv its fakie shuvits, half cabs then 180s.

Also it wouldn't be a bad idea to start getting into switch and nollie, just like switch shuvits and 180s and stuff trust me when you start to get better you'll be insane if you can do all your tricks switch

180 ollies, shoves, nollies, footwork, taildrops, heelflips, etc. Do whatever you want, people do different tricks.

I really think great way to build up is to learn the regular trick then learn the switch/nollie trick right after. In this order:

Ollie
Nollie
180
Halfcab
Switch/Nollie 180
(Pop) Shuv-it
Switch/Nollie Pop Shuvs
Kickflip or Heelflip
Switch/Nollie Heel or Flip
And so on. That will give you the chance to learn switch tricks earlier than other skaters.
