 |
|
| Ok soo i get the board around then land on it but im in the back half of the board and im leaned back and then i get dragged for awhile. So my question is how do i get the board to spin more under me? Ill get a video soon. Oh and these are inside out. Basicly i spin with my back foot then kick the shlt out of the board with my front foot and it spins perfect just infront of me a little. |

| I don't push with my front foot i start the shuv with my back foot then kick with my front foot like a kickflip. I somehow get laid back in the air. It looks good in a picture just makes it hard to land. |

your pushing the shuv out to far...causing you to extend your front foot too far therefore making you lean back

Pop the shuv just as high.
There's something weird about varial flips that defies common sense, but I tell you this. When you cut out and set up, put more weight on your front foot than you think you should. More.

I landed one first try tonight and decided to end my set on a good note. I think i got it now.  I did put more weight on my front foot and that helped keep it under me. Pop,spin,kick,land, yay.
edit: Wait a second..does this make me the youngest Canadian to land a varial flip? oh and I'm gonna make a video very shortly i have learned a lot this summer. one more round of party hats.. |
