Final Blog Reflection

Reflection

Well this has been a hell of a year for these blogs and making sure everybody has the right way of doing this tricks. These past months have been very exciting for me to inspire people to grab a board and go skate for a living. Our 20% project was an okay success but really its not our presentation that will inspire kids to go skate because they have to see it with there own eyes to believe it. Kids want a challenge to come in there life through hard times or whenever they are bored because skateboarding is a good way to release stress and to overcome boredom. If people saw what skateboarding how it actually looked like you could see its not that bad, but there maybe a couple of bad falls and bail and stuff like that , but thats not going to stop you from following your dream. If you just looked a little bit close to skateboarding you would say that looks like fun and that skateboarding can consider as being art. Well this is what we have done throughout the year and all i can say is GO SKATE!!!!!!!!!! 

Blog #12 How to Forward Flip/Dolphin Flip

Forward Flip/Dolphin Flip

Today's lesson is going to be the forward flip or the dolphin flip as you may call it. Well this trick is called the forward flip or the dolphin flip because of how the board moves like a dolphin. For this particular trick you are going to have to slide your foot all the way to the tip of the nose on your board because that will give it the rotation you need for it. This trick is going to look like some what of a varial kick-flip because its going the same direction and it has a longer process for it to form. Well what you want to do is to place your back foot on the heel of the pocket and your front foot like a regular kick-flip. Your are going to want to pop your back foot as hard as you can and flip the your front out to the tip of the nose till it gets to the point were you see your board flip like a dolphin. That is basically what you need to learn for the dolphin or forward flip. Skate & Destroy.

Blog #11 How to Backside 360 Spin

Backside 360 Spin

Time to step up the game and show you guys a little more than a backside 180. The trick I'm going to show you today is the backside 360 spin and this is a somewhat hard trick because you are going to need a lot of pop. This trick is going to require a full body rotation and a hell of a pop. Now I would assume you saw the trick tip for a backside 180, but if you want to start off right away with the the 360 then be my guest. I would rather than you to practice the 180 first because all steps are similar to the the 360. The difference is that you will have to spin your body faster and pop higher and i would have your backfoot on the pocket where you would do a pressure flip because that will give you the that extra kick to it. All rules apply to this trick and i would suggest you look up the video on this trick but look up the dude Louie Lopez. This has been a good day and keep shredding.

Blog #10 How to Fronstide Flip

Frontside Flip 

Today's lesson is going to be the fronstside flip. Now the frontside flip is a very common trick and it looks amazing doing it off a stair set or a huge gap. Lets get started with this tutorial. First step of doing the frontside flip is getting your frontside 180's down because if you don't have those then you can't give the proper turn for the frontside flip. The frontside flip is a combination of a kickflip and frontside 180. The other step to the frontside flip is the the kickflip which i assume you have those on lock. This is what basically how the frontside flip works. If you are planning to look on the tutorial video I would prefer you see Andrew Reynolds because he has the best frontside flips out of all. This has been a trick tip on the frontside flip and see you all next week. Keep Skating.

Blog #9 How to Impossible

How to Impossible

Today's tutorial skateboarding lesson is the impossible. Now the impossible may be hard on the way of learning it but with my methods, you will be on your way of getting them on lock. Time to start of with the first step of doing the impossible. The first step of doing this gnarly trick is foot placement. Well this trick has nothing to do with your front foot because it is mostly all the focus in back foot. I would prefer if you know how to pressure flip then that trick will help a lot with the impossible. With the pressure flip the board is going to stay with your back foot and while that is happening, you are going to have strength with your back foot to spin the board around your foot. Now if you seen those tony hawk games the impossible goes around your back foot, but its the same maneuver to your own board. I would prefer you to go look up the tutorial on this trick if this is not helping you. This has been a good day and peace out.

Blog #8 How to Nollie Late Flip

How to Nollie Late Flip

This is the time where I'm trying to take it up a notch and try to teach you guys a really difficult trick. Well this trick is going to be a hard one because for this trick, you are going to need to be quick as you can. First step of doing a nollie late flip is getting comfortable with your nollie's. I would suggest to get your nollie's at really good level when you pop it. Once that nollie is in the bag, you are going to have to be quick with this next step. Once you pop a nollie, your back foot is going to slide up towards the tail of the board. While that is going on, you have to slide your front foot half way up to were its in the middle like you are preparing to do a regular kickflip. Once your front foot is where it needs to be, you are going to want to force your front to do a regular kickflip while you are still in mid-air. This is the right way to do it and the only good way of landing this type of trick.
