Thanks for the shout out man!! Killing it on that mini!!! So jealous of your kickflips!!! 🤘
Wouldn’t of done it if it wasn’t for your kickflip challenge mate. Think I’m gonna stick that heelflip soon. Feel like I worked it out a little more after that!
Great progress brother, keep it up shredder 👍🙏🏻. Right now I'm in recovery status. Fell in rain doing splits unexpectedly last week, Jack up left leg and meniscus. Not even doing a trick. Keep up the work.
Oh no that abounds painful! I’m still suffering from a ledge slam. Happened about 4 weeks ago and my kidney still hurts 😬
Heelflips is the one trick I want consistent but it just doesn’t always play ball. You’ve definitely got it, just to lean back like you said. That’s always been the key for me with them, I have to make a conscious effort to pull my head back and then it works. Hopefully you get what I mean and it helps. Keep going bud you got it.
I totally get what you’re saying. You’ve got a lovely heelflip! I feel like if I can master it, it will be better than my kickflip. Seriously considering going back down to a 8.125 or 8 inch deck to see if it’s easier
Nice kickflips my dude, and the heel flip battle will be extra sweet when you win it... nice
Cheers man! Certainly making me work for it haha
I feel you man! Heelflips took me so long to feel comfortable enough to take to an obstacle, but you got it! It’s like everything else, just do them A LOT. Your brain is just not use to seeing the board flip opposite of a kickflip yet. TIP: do heelflips over a crack in the ground, going at a decent speed, every time you skate to build the confidence👍
Thanks man! Yeah it’s like I’m slowly rewiring my brain. Def right with the speed. Noticed it’s easier the faster I go… just a little scarier 😂
@@Sk8Comeback oh for sure! I just started doing them over hips, and sometimes when I’m warming up, I still bail them on flat lol, but once we’ve put enough repetitions in, that fear will go away, just like when we first leaned to Ollie👌 process is all the same
Smashing it! 👏
Cheers lad!
Half pipe 180 looking nice now
@@rahrelee2260 feels terrifying when I get near the coping 😂 getting there tho
Getting pretty smooth on the transition dude!
Thank you. Need to learn a few frontside tricks now!
Them heel flips are hard mate used to do my head in, But the feeling when it comes off, You can go home happy 👍🏻
I landed a super clean one about 4 months ago and I remember how good it felt! Searching for that feeling again 😂 after I landed it I didn’t try it for so long I forgot how! Need to keep it this time!
@@Sk8Comeback I remember 360 flip was what I loved doing and it took me ages nail down always landing the deck upside down FFS 😂, Love the look of them though when they come off, I live in Great Yarmouth, although it's not bloody great lol, Check out the Gt Yarmouth Skateboarding video on RUclips 1995-2001, Some of these have gone on to be pros 👍🏻
Keep persistent mate you'll get the heel flip. Think I only ever landed a few clean ones in my teens. Everything hurts and is harder in your 30s 😂 looks like you needed that little lie down at the end 😅
Thanks brother 👊 I really want them! Skate Sesh soon?
Well done babe, looks good ❤
Thanks babe… didn’t hurt myself this time lol x
Yo hope you're all having a good day
Thanks for the upload 👍
I cant land a kickflip yet, close but meh.
As for the healflip ive landed a couple this year, what helped was just moving my front foot so my toes are hanging over the edge of the board
That how I feel with the heelflip 😂 thank you dude 👊 appreciated
I feel your pain man, I’ve totally lost my heel flips
One of thos tricks I’ve never really had down. Plan to try and keep it once I get it this time.
Keep your weight centered directly over the board. It'll stay right under you. You got this. I'll try and film a couple after work
Cheers man! I know what you’re saying! Just gotta get my brain to let me do it 😂 your kickflips are looking nice atm! Trying to clean mine up again
Best tip for heelflips is to almost sit down so you're leaning back. It will help get both feet on
Thanks man I’ve heard this. Always forget that! I’ll try 👊
@@Sk8Comeback someone explained it to me as your about to sit on a toilet but you only make it halfway lol
@@THEH0WLER87 pretty sure that’s what someone said to me once too 😂
Nice vid dude you’ll land it 🤘
I hope so 🤞
@@Sk8Comebacknext sesh
I really really hope so 😂
@@Sk8Comebackbelieve brother
@dadskates1122 bit the bullet and ordered a smaller deck. Hoping it will help Needed a new one anyway!
That ground looks a bit moist. Great control sick heelflips too
My man 👊 cheers dude! Haha wasn’t as wet as my sweaty t shirt lol
Heelflips will be sick when I actually land one mate 😂
I was in school lol but went skating after :)
👊
Get a cheap tripod and film some clips 👊 I’ll watch
You need to land with both feet get back on the board 😆
Thanks man 😂 I’ll give that a try next time 👍
Your welcome 🤙🏾
Your mini games got good dude.
Think you might enjoy a feeble to rock to fakie (don't turn your shoulders)
My heelflips suck but I think you actually gotta lean the way your rolling a bit more... maybe 🤷
I’ve been thinking about so many… I think if I skated that mini and few days in a row I’d unlock a few new ones! I want to try that fakie smith thing & tail stall Bs revert. It’s been a slow process but it’s coming together 👊
Its like you're not bending into the kickflip quite right. I like to kind of bow my legs a little gets more height and tail pops up into back foot.
Same foor heel. Yeah definately no bow going on, should float up into your feet. Same boat quit for a decade now just having an occasional roll.
Yeah I hear you. My kickflips were nice a few months back and I was bending and catching but went upto 8.25 and they just vanished. Def right…I feel like I’m not bending into them enough! This session was just about landing with both feet as I haven’t even been landing them lately.
@@Sk8ComebackYeah man for sure. So much muscles being used all through the body popping flips. We don't think about it but it's like the whole body.
Dude I popped my back out so I'm screwed for a couple weeks. 🤣 Been doing no comply impossibles cause I don't need to bend up as much. Probably going to take a few weeks to get the flips back once heeled. Just how it is.
@@johndoeyedoe my brain can’t figure out no complys… they look so good too! Ah mate… I slammed on a ledge about 4 weeks ago and I’m still having kidney pain now 😬 everytime I feel better I go for a skate a wake up in pain again. I just dont want to take more than a week off 😂
