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. _________________ dbanana wrote:

| 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.

| bob., it's so hard though man. when i first tried kickflips i tried to flick them like a skateboard, i ended up looking like an idiot and landing in a sitting position on the board and riding away. |
