Skateboarding tricks

Here we will teach you on how to learn basic skateboarding tricks.

Ok, first you have to know if you ride goofy or a regular footer. If your regular then you put your right foot at the end of the  skateboard (thats behind the screws, you can even mark your own spot), then place your left foot at the middle of the skateboard. After you have that you slam down at the end of the skateboard with your right foot, next bring your left foot up to the front tip of the board, and as you bring your left foot up, slide it towards the end of the skateboard tip, as you go down bring your legs straight down forward. And there you go, you have learned your first basic trick, GOOD JOB!

 For percaution ollie on the carpet, but I find it harder to ollie on, it seems to me I can ollie higher on concrete.

If you want to learn how to Kick-flip it takes time and patience, so don't get upset if you can't do it right away. Its a pretty hard trick. Ok, you now know all about how to ollie, now when you ollie, you slide your left foot to the top of the right side of the skateboard, then just flick it, you want to put your foot out far enough, if you don't do this this then the board won't flip.

Learning to Heelflip

The first step is to ollie and as you do so flick the board along the nose tail axis with the edge of your heel while staying parallel to the ground. Its basicallly the same movement of the kickflip but instead of using your toes to spin the board
