im not sure if i'm even ready to try them having only landed 2 varial flips, but i think im going to try some Smash

anybody have tips?

basically my plan right now is to either try it inside out behind a ski or in the flats and just try to flick it like a skateboard. (seems to work for varials)

they're different tricks

never has a lion ever came from a tiger, or a tiger from a lion

lions eat cantelopes that run around in african bush, tigers eat people that ride on top of elephants"

Okay so is a Vflip is a 180 kickflip right?

So a 360flip is a 360 kickflip.

I am guessing you just gotta kick it harder. Have no clue just a thought.

Message me if you need help washing dishes or delivering pizzas, can't really help with anything else.

Post if you land it though k gnar.

wakemitch, you gotta eat those rct's, you can eat as many as you want to because those, or any cereal wont fill you up, the only reason you stop eating is cause its so damn expensive and your moms gonna get pissed if you eat a whole box in one day. unlike gatoraide, which fills you up, then your like, damn, i drank too much gatorade yo

Weird.. I asked my brother and he has been skating for like 5 years and is really good I thought he would be right.

FreshwaterFTW, 5 years and he thinks a 3 flip is a hardflip (back shuv kickflip) with a 360 body spin? wtf?
