i can't really explain them.. just ollie really big and throw it... they're not that bad.. my local friends blake steele and josh have both landed on the board first try...

blake steele is sticking them in the flats so clean.

Gnarly Dancer 42, trial and error pretty much. everyone does them different. i put my front foot a couple inches closer to the back of the board then i would for a kick flip. just go out and try a bunch.

josh your posting from school? ready to ride today?

josh is right.. but i'd try it inside out if i were you. just throw it slower and softer.

the hard flip is a cruel mother, but when conquered it is gnargazmic. i poped one too far out in front and my body broke my skate in half, so keep it under ya. ill post one of mine on here tomorrow. maybe it will help a little.
