hey homies.

i know i'm not alone, i learned kickflips on a wakeskate before i could do them on a skateboard.

some say u should learn them on a skateboard first, but that seemed less thrilling to me.

any way......did u learn them on the concrete or on the water?

just thought it'd be an interesting stat.

I learned them on a skateboard first and i think that it prolonged my wakeskate kickflip so long. I couldnt for the life of me do it for years. I would always flick up and out instead of downward at all. Took some serious learning.

skateboarding is what has messed me up wakeskating. i'm so used to the flick that it's taking me forever to get the kickflip motion down.
