Skated on and off for 20 years. At the age of 34 I set out to learn this trick. Took me 2 summers of steady focus to learn. Nearly destroyed my body in the process (kept landing awkwardly and having really dirty slams) but I eventually got a clean one on film and now can hang my skateboard up with no regrets
Thank you for being the only person Ive seen so far, to talk about not having your shoulders parallel with the board and opening up as you pop. Honestly, this is an adjustment that i just made today just from watching people do the trick and it basically immediately fixed the problem of the board landing behind me. I hope that more people end up seeing this video when trying to learn tre flips because i feel like the problem i was having is a super common problem and im pretty sure youre the only person ive seen mention not having your shoulders squared up with the board
Bro bro!!! You’ve helped me more than anyone on RUclips! Scooping forward is what I’ve been missing. I almost thought I was doomed to never Tre-flip! Now I just gotta focus on getting my back knee bent to land it on there! Thank you!!!!
Honestly you have the best trick teaching videos I’ve ever seen and I love how your building up confidence in it. Dude I thought a kick flip was a heel flip in 5 th grade then I realized how wrong I was doing it and once I did my first kick flip the right way, landed every time
such an incredible tutorial, in depth and truly helped me understand 3 flips better. i can tell that you have a passion for helping others and you respond to almost all comments which shows how much you care about your viewers. this quality of work will ultimately gain the attention it deserves. thank you for being so humble and interactive just wanted to let you know it does not go unnoticed!! keep it up man ill be here for every video you post!
Connor this is Hans from ASU. I don't know if you remember me. I left after my sophomore year in 2012. I got sober and back into skating in 2016 and this trick haunted me even in my middle school years and this was really helpful. i have the 270 flip tendency and I'm able to get more of a full 360 out of my scoop.I hope you're doing well. If we ever cross paths again i hope we can catch a session together.
What’s up dude! Of course I remember you. Hope you’re good and congrats on getting sober. Where do you live these days? Would be sick to skate together!
You have to really focus on pushing the board in a forward direction when you scoop. That’s why it’s important to have your back foot more on the corner of the tail. Hope that helps!
I haven't skated in too long and I still watch and love it even tho its been a long time. I like the way you break down and explain things step by step like others but it seems more in depth. Makes me want to skate again man
I really appreciate this! You should get back on your board, I stopped/slowed down for quite a few years and got way back into it the past few years and am so happy I did!
Is your right foot your front foot? If that’s the case try opening them a little less. It doesn’t need to be too extreme just enough keep your momentum moving forward! Hope that helps and thanks for watching!
Great video! My next trick war is this one but it’s being a real pain right now so I’ve tried 5 days now and no matter how hard I scoop all I get are varial flip or almost double varial no 360 shuv part in sight I can maybe form the Tre 3/4 and land with my back foot but when I try to practice with my front foot it’s back to varial flips only no matter how hard I scoop it’s so weird .
Thanks for watching! I wonder for trying to catch with your front foot if you’re just catching it too fast. Try flipping slower and keeping your foot out of the way!
connor, look into Intact laces or lifetime laces. ill always have a pair of either on my shoes from here on out. thank me later. also as someone that dedicated weeks on weeks of only trying to relearn this trick after a decade hiatus, and now riding looser trucks.. heres a note. If you have looose trucks youll have to place your backfoot closer to the tail. and if they are super tight, then you can just put it in the pocket. This trick is easiest with super tight trucks but, heres a quick tip if they are medium to loose. make sure when your tail contacts the ground it should be contacting the ground under your heelside wheel, any sooner and it wont work, but anything at heelside wheel or even later is better.
For sure I’ve loosened my truck as well and you definitely have to kind of relearn the trick. Tight truck’s definitely help! Also appreciate the tip on the laces I’ll have to check those out!
@@ConnorMcSkaten the laces are a no brainer. One less thing to worry about when you skate. And it’s 2023 it was about time someone did something about ripped laces. Also, I just got back after decade hiatus. I had super tight trucks then. Now medium. So I had to relearn these. And now they are 10x better than the ones I used to have.
Interesting tip about the trucks vs tail contact! Im loose trucks and my tres just dont fully flip, usually 180to270 flip rotation. Could you clarify, is the tail supposed to be snapping on the ground right under the board edge where your toes are curled over the tail (so the toes drive that toe side pocket edge smacking first), or snapping the ground more back under the heel side of the tail as though your toe is more pulling it in the natural flip rotation direction?
@@simonwolfe4324 I hope i'm understanding the question and answering properly. Let me know if this doesn't make sense. The tail should be popping right off of where your toes are holding on. This will initiate the pop and rotation of the board. But I think like you said, just with the rotation, the position of the tail may already be in motion so the position of the tail during the snap may be more where your heel initially was. Hope that wasn't too confusing 😅 But so much of this trick is figuring out what works best for you. one day you'll feel like everything works and you just need to remember that feeling!
@@simonwolfe4324 more back under the heel side of the tail. If the tail makes contact any sooner than the heel side wheel it will 270. Also make sure your not leaning on your toes too much. Since now your popping a little bit later since it’s now popping at the heel side. You’re gonna have to jump just a bit later too. Make sure you jump straight up and not infront too much of your toes.
I feel so funny watching this😂 I have been skating about 24 years and never had a good regular tre flip and never actually cared. I have switch and nollie tre and have a ton of other tricks, mostly grinds but regular tre on flat has never been my trick. Hopefully this video will help me out😂
Haha I feel that! I was able to switch flip better than kickflip for a long time. I've been trying to dial in the basics again. Appreciate you watching!
i always land with my body too forward on the nose of the board. I know that i need to lean back, but i cant seem to solve the issue. Ive only landed it once with a bit of toe drag but that was a while ago.
Honestly, I think that is exactly how most people land them at first. It really takes a lot of practice to get your body comfortable with the motion. But keep practicing and really focusing on leaning back and pushing the board forward and one day it will all click!
Good tutorial but also another one that does not mention how back leg should stay above the board after performing powerful scoop. I think this is most important becuase it is most dificult part of the treflip. I've learned persistent scoop/board rotation in just 1 day. It's been 4 months of every day training trying to get my back foot on the baord. When I tuck my knees as hard as I can then board just hits my back leg knee as it rotates and trick just does not work. So frustraiting.
The secret to 360 flip is to keep your scoop foot long enough in the air so you can actually land it. My scoop foot ends up on the ground before the board. I just don’t jump high enough as to much energy goes into scoop. It’s hard.
@@pistopitpit usually if your foot is going to the ground first it just means you’ve still got a little fear about fully committing. Pop, jump high and trust you’ll land on the board 🤙
@@ConnorMcSkaten cheers mate, will try to commit 100%. I have a video to see what I am doing wrong and it looks like the board is doing its last bit of spin while my back foot is already on the ground. I thought if I scoop harder then the spin will be faster and I will have enough time to land it. I feel like I am definitely close and seeing I am making progress, motivates me.
The open shoulder is the worst advice you could give to anyone on this. Have you ever seen anyone try to learn this trick? They always land with their front foot on the floor next to the board… because of the open shoulder 🤦🏻♂️
Let me know what trick tip I should do next!
Backside nose slides on a ledge?
@@zukitori5442 You got it! I should be able to get that one done in the next week or so!

yeeh bro! a think aslo that open shoulders is important !) thks
So true with that pop-scoop👍
They always go behind me as in I land on the nose. They also only flip halfway

Thanks Legend
🙏🙏
yoo this is so dope! Learning consistent tres rn gotten a couple here and there but it’s always my weight that messes me up 😭
For sure! Once you figure out that muscle memory they’ll start working! 👊
Awesome i landed 2 3flip last week i was so happy
Amazing!! Keep practicing they just get easier the more you do them!
Talent.
🙏🙏
Your explain is detail, good job man.
I appreciate it! Thank you for watching!!
Opening my shoulders like that makes my right foot open up too and I land with it on the ground, heel side.
Is your right foot your front foot? If that’s the case try opening them a little less. It doesn’t need to be too extreme just enough keep your momentum moving forward! Hope that helps and thanks for watching!

Amazing! Thanks for watching 🙏
u have a nice treflip
Thank you so much!
Everytime I practice Tre flips I end up injuring my hamstrings or inner thigh muscles, any ideas what im doing wrong? Should i stop?😁
Oh no! Not sure all I can think of is just stretching more before or after?!!
This might be the tutorial to push me to learn this trick.
You got it!! Definitely takes some practice, but once you figure it out it’s so fun! Let me know if you get one 🙌🙌

Still struggle, Been 7 years since my first tre
They are definitely one of those tricks that take a long time to master and finally you find exactly what works for you. Good luck!
You missed the front foot flick
just refer to Stefan Janoski if you ever want to learn a 360 flip
Legit that’s how I learned to tre flip however long ago 😂
Sup. Dood. I like.
Mitchell demon
hey thats my local
Sick! Love that park!
hardflip!
Thank you! I’ll add it to the list! 🙏
That's a 360 pressure flip
wrong tips on this video, opening your shoulders is called by a lot of pro skaters as a 360flip killer.
Ultimately comes down to whatever works for you! That’s just what works for me, but the key is not opening them too much
source?
The open shoulder is the worst advice you could give to anyone on this. Have you ever seen anyone try to learn this trick? They always land with their front foot on the floor next to the board… because of the open shoulder 🤦🏻♂️
Usually that’s because they aren’t committing. Everyone’s got their own opinion and way to do it though 🤙
Why does everyone who teaches this trick skate goofy 😂
