sounds to me like you just wanted to give us your tricklist Rolling Eyes

i used to be able to do heelflips like every time and never kickflips cause i couldnt get my front foot back on. now ive found a good foot position and can kickflip pretty well. since then i have lost my heelflip haha

I dunno, They just say that with the tricks I can do, that it's funny I cant kickflip, i can rotate it perfect...bout 2 ft high and slow rotate, but cant get my back foot on it

What are 80 heelflips?

Elevation · Posted: Jun 20, 2004 8:03 pm Post subject:

i was wondering the same thing, i think he meant to say 180 heelflips

.....or maybe he can almost get a 90 heelflip Laughing

Todd_28, thats real weird, i could never get my front foot on but always my back i dont see how your doing that.

Supposed to be 180, but the 1 on my upper number pad gets stuck, lol

so wouldn't that be called a fs or bs heelflip depending on what way you spin?

wakeboarder_360 · Posted: Jun 22, 2004 5:47 pm Post subject:

If you skate consistantly and commit that isn't wierd at all. I used to heelflip better than kickflip too but now its opposite Confused

Elevation · Posted: Jun 22, 2004 6:00 pm Post subject:

wakeboarder_360, that used to be the same for me. i could never kickflip and heelflip every time. now i am pretty consistant with kickflips and lost my heel, kinda crazy

Jester · Posted: Jun 23, 2004 9:13 am Post subject:

I call BS. If you can't kickflip then you couldn't hardflip or 3-flip. Get some video or photos up.

Elevation · Posted: Jun 23, 2004 7:48 pm Post subject:

ha. thats a good call, i would believe this but id like to see some vid too

Fredrick Eisenhauer · Posted: Jun 25, 2004 6:11 am Post subject:

I can switch flip and 360 flip more consistantly then I can kickflip, so I'd believe him about that. But all that after 7months is a bit suss.

Elevation · Posted: Jun 25, 2004 8:35 am Post subject:

Fredrick Eisenhauer, ha i thought you said switch tre flip, i wasnt gonna believe that

numbfoot · Posted: Jun 25, 2004 6:24 pm Post subject:

I don't really find it that weird. Ur probably kicking it wrong or something. Try concentrating on kicking it out like u would on your heelflips instead of down cuz that's the only reason that the people i know couldn't kickflip.

Hope this helps.

Fredrick Eisenhauer · Posted: Jun 26, 2004 4:57 am Post subject:

I can nearly switch 360 flip, and if you don't believe me thats alright.

Elevation · Posted: Jun 26, 2004 9:56 am Post subject:

i believe you might be able to do it, but better than a kickflip i dont think so

Sorry bout not replying, I've been in Florida the last 2 weeks, but I will try to get a video up asap, me and some friends are making one skatin town, u get to see my friend Bud get arrested for doin a boardslide down the rail at the police station.

Mike.H · Posted: Jul 04, 2004 1:19 pm Post subject:

i wish i could kick flip, best trick i can do is a shove-it....almost did a 360 once but didnt turn out to good

Elevation · Posted: Jul 05, 2004 7:13 pm Post subject:

ha sounds like a funny vid. did he do the rail at the popo station so you guys would get arrested or was he just stupid like that? Rolling Eyes

Fredrick Eisenhauer · Posted: Jul 06, 2004 4:46 am Post subject:

You get arrested for that over there? Geez thats harsh. We would get told to go away and thats it really.

If I could do all that the last thing I would be worried about is kickflips.

Elevation · Posted: Jul 06, 2004 10:50 am Post subject:
