The front in the pocket is crucial but not for the reason you gave. watching the slomo's I can see your nose popping directly off tip every time not the side. the pocket makes you pop forward more thus keeping the board under you better. PS. keep eating plants.
hey, i really like your videos. the way you understand skateboarding is amazing. there's something i noticed learning kickflips and i see it on your nollie flips, the lean to the back that makes the board sideways at the moment you pop also changes the direction of your jump, and that helps keeping the board under your foot because when it flips it always gonna land like a foot away on the direction of its rotation , so if you jump back too it'rs really easier to catch :o same with a lot of tricks
U could also hold onto a fence or something for extra support, to give ya a little extra hang time ( and stability). That’s how I learned to Ollie... also doing them into grass at first. Those were the pee wee tips back in the days.
hey, Ive watched a bunch of your videos and they are all sick!!! super helpful. Thanks bro!! Will you go over your arm toss? meaning when you ollie your arms go up behind you. it looks cool but Im wondering what advantages you get from dong this. I've seen alot of skaters I respect do it that way and I've always been curious.
Good trick tip but you know how when your front foot is in that pocket and your board wants to lean so I end up turning when I have that set up so it would be hard to do it like that down a set of stairs Bc the board wants to turn instead of go straight
When i watched this i thought these tips were bullshit, i already had nollie flips but sure enough i tried your foot positioning and i was gettin them back to back consistent as fuck lol thanks for the tips bro
hey will! i just learned nollie 5.0s and i was wondering if you could do a trick tip on nollie noseslide. they are so sick! its hard trying to understand how to get into it tho... its such a crazy trick.
Putting your foot in the pocket works better as long as the tip of your toe is pointed towards the center of the tail. It turns the board a bit frontside which why he missed the flick at first. Then he flicked straight back and it worked you can see at 5:31
I used to Ollie with my back foot in the same position as your nollie flips front foot except it was in the middle of the tail and a little more in the pooch. It screwed my Ollie really bad because I did this for about 2 months.
Hey dude i really enjoy your trick tips and skate hacks . Do you think you can do one on consistancy cuz i always feel like when i miss 3 or more days of skateing i have to work harder for tricks i already know
Thanks, not really much i could elaborate on that.. Muscle memory can take time to build up. More and more practice and confidence can only fill that gap.
Hope this helps with my switch flips, I think they're cooler than Nollie. Also, what's going on with the suede? I'm sure you know that suede is made from cow skin, so just curious about your stance there?
I think the reason you might miss the flick sometimes, is because your foot is in the pocket and when you go to pop it pushes the board outwards which causes you to miss. I had that problem with my heelflips until, I fixed it by moving my popping foot more towards the center of the tail. Just a thought.
Agree - for all my kickflip/heelflips, I find it helps to have my foot closer to the 'other' pocket. That way the board is already flipping slightly the wrong way and firm against your flipping foot as you execute the main flip. Also it helps me to straighten out my balance as I move the flipping foot to one side of the board.
It seems Plantrider does them better than me though - so not trying to sound like an authority on this trick but just saying in case it helps anyone :)
2 questions 1. does your switch kickflip have the same foot positioning as your nollie flip stance? (flicking foot more parallel than slanted and popping foot in the same pocket) 2. when you do fakie kickflips is your popping foot still in the pocket? thanks
Thanks for asking. See if there's a local skateshop in your area (not a zumiez or large chain store) and they should be able to help you pick out a board and all the other hardware for skating and put it together for you. Practice on your street or local empty parking lots and move to skateparks when you feel ready, try to go at a time when it's not crowded to alleviate the stress factor or avoid crashing into others. Take it a day at a time, its all about having fun :)
what he said, plus cruising around, find a quiet area and just go for a cruise, get really comfortable pushing around, maybe do this before trying tricks actually
Also, Don't try to learn tricks stationary. In my experience, it was only detrimental to learning tricks. Also, watch a lot of skating videos and analyze how people push, set up for tricks, and how they land. This has helped me learn a lot. Big tip too is to always commit and to never be discouraged from trying new things.
dont think u will learn ollies right away some people it will be more natural but for me i never was into sports so its kinda hard to learn new tricks, but just cruise for like 3 months. try rolling off curbs etc dont try too hard its easy its all mental
My problem is my back foot, i feel like there is no way i can have a regular flick because of my leg, it feels very weak for that specific trick. Nollie heels totally a different story, i have the power to kick it really hard

Algorithm goes hard, I search for tutorials and I get recommendation for this guy I’ve never watched before.👍🏽 this is awesome

Great video man
You should do backside flips next
looking backwards makes my flick easier when i look forward my feet just get stuck while flicking

Great video. This is on my list of tricks to practice during my next session and I will follow your advice.
The advice about sitting down sounds pretty cool.

Keep this up, you´re the best! Thank you!

best skate tips ever!

Rad your a great skater ,what r ur sponsors
Great tutorial!
Would it help to lean forward or backward position?
should i learn nollie or switch first?
you should do nollie backside heel/flip
I used to Ollie with my back foot in the same position as your nollie flips front foot except it was in the middle of the tail and a little more in the pooch. It screwed my Ollie really bad because I did this for about 2 months.
great tips
What kind of shoes are those @plantrider
one with backside 50-50s pls they are so hard
Thanks man. Think you can do one of Nollie Heel? I can already tell that one is going to give me some trouble.
Honestly its just about flicking your back foot and making sure you dont flick to far too the side. btw im pretty sure I've seen you in amino!
Michael Crawford I suck at Heelflips though because I mob them.
Good pointers!

Alright i apreciate that thanks

The suede on these shoes are plant-based, from servant footwear. The shoes aren't made from cow skin. It's a synthetic suede

Bro my right shoulder pops and hurts really bad when I try these
Nol tre tips?
2 questions
1. does your switch kickflip have the same foot positioning as your nollie flip stance? (flicking foot more parallel than slanted and popping foot in the same pocket)
2. when you do fakie kickflips is your popping foot still in the pocket?
thanks
1. Yes
2. Almost. Grew up doing kickflips a little different but it's about the same position, maybe a little closer to tip but still pocketed
sk8vegan thanks for the reply!
Any tips for someone who has never skated before and is looking to get into it?

you say that your back foot is straight but when you do your nollie flip it's oriented towards the tail
Can someone please help me I keep flicking in the wrong corner so the board spins like a heel flip
I do this too I think we just suck
Estimated date the iphone part dropping?
Hopefully late 2017
How do you avoid getting sacked when you miss the flick 😭 😱
Don’t miss the flip ☠️☠️☠️
Oh damn, I can't believe I didn't think about practicing the shit sitting down lol
I got a gangsta lookin switch flip but my nollie flips need work
How tf you stand on your toes like that for Nollie flips
what shoes are you skating?
servant, just saw it.
Ay bro are you pro or sponsored or anything?? Just wondering =)✌
nose manny nollie flip skate hack please!!
watch pros do it and their movements are always the same way. look where their foot is
Idk why but Nollie Tres are easier for me
I can do nollie tres but not regular tres
Why not just pop in the opposite pocket? This way makes it harder to flip the board, you get way less leverage.
skate 4
my flip is good i just can't land it
nosegrind plss..
6:19 dab
stop...
skaterdiy I know haha. I just felt like pointing it out
