heres the deal, near the end of last summer i learned kickflips on my vinyl and by the end i was pretty much getting one every set or two. I recently purchased a LTD integ, and although i have learned a bizillion new tricks on it, i somehow cant get my kickflips back.

does anyone have any suggestions on how to do kickflips on lighter boards, or more specifically the integs?...any help would be sick.

thanks

Gnarly Dancer 42, look at the middle of your board, not the nose.

thats scary lol but i learned k flips on a 42 new and learned em on my integ when i first got it and thought it was easier, maybe ur kickflips are more mobbed cause and integ pops up and if ur mobbing it you gna under rotate the flip when it hits your fit cause its popping up ya know? video it and post we can get you worked out and landing em asap


one thing, integs come alive when you focus on keeping your back foot on the tail edge, right up on the concave, it really makes a differance
