kickflip

I would say hold out on the kickflip for now.

You could definitely start playing with the lip some. From a front lip (frontside lipslide), you could fs 90 shuv out, bs 270 shuv out, or ollie bs 270 out. From front board (frontside boardslide) you could ollie fs 270 out, or bs 90 shuv out. You can do the same things on the other side of the wake; front board = back lip (backside lipslide) on the other side of the wake, and front lip = back board (backside boardslide) on the other side.

For these trick names, frontside or backside is determined by where the lip is (behind you or in front of you), not which way you get on it. Frontside means the rail or the wake is in front of you when you start the trick and backside means it is behind you. A boardslide means the nose of the board goes over the wake or the rail first, lipslide meaning the tail goes over first; in a front board, you are facing away from the boat etc.

I hope this helps open up a new bag of tricks for you and I hope you have fun learning them.
