RE: My Heelflip Progress

It pretty much boils down to confidence . Which is a terrible tip but all these goes you making minor adjustments . You have the flip but you aint locked into that natural timing of being right over the board and letting it flip under you . If you start landing primo or with the board upside down you getting there. I think the bruises are coming from trying to bail mid trick .....its all the mentalness man you just gotta go for one and trust your legs , trust the flip and hopefuly land on it . But that awesome progress thats on your trick list !!!! Although I prefer kickflips so im calling you out on the kickflip

Sort:  

Ha ha can't say fairer than that! I'll get to kickflips once I've got these down. Ok, so I'm thinking I should start focus on landing it rather than flipping it? Is that what you mean by landing it primo?

primo means you land it like this:

LOL.
not what you WANT but its a step forward to commiting to levitating your body above the board as it flips

Yeah that's a good shout! Ah I was thinking it meant the board would be totally upside down! I'm so excited for Girls' Night tomorrow night, it was cancelled last week due to the snow :( I'll try to get something filmed for steemskate.
