Thank you Dominick 👍
to the lot i gooo
From all the tutorials I've seen on any trick, Domo is hands down one of the best teachers. He's super calm, he doesn't overwhelm you with information, yet he gives personal notes for real life situations.
He's a really good teacher. I like this video!
The best teacher
Thanks!
Almost 19 years in and this trick in Particular is as Tough as the Dickens😤
I appreciate this Vid Dom❤
what helped me so much to get more consistent was to not bend down so far when popping and to not focus on slamming the tail with all my strength just a nice fast crisp pop and then put my strength more into jumping up instead of pushing down as hard. Also it kind of helped me to point my front finger at the front bolts when crouching pretending as if I was gonna touch the bolts, it helps keep shoulders square with the board and jumping straight up.
Flip it half way and land on top of the board (trucks side up)! Jump!
You should talk about your back foot placement.. some ppl pop off the end of the tail.. whiles you are popping off the center pocket of the rail and even have 1-1.5 inches of the tip of your tail showing
Some bonus tips are jumping forward while you kick flip helps a lot and putting your back foot in the back pocket of the tail helps popping it faster.
Man... the jumping forward part... finally understood that... last week! Lol... just learned to kickflip at 45 😂
why u repping the losers flag 😩
Yikes
I disagree about jumping forward you want to jump straight up. Unless your talking about throwing your feet forward with a bit of "umph" for lack of a better term and not your whole body.
@@jdlx4912music sweet, there’s hope for me lol. I’m 46 and wanna learn kickflips, a good looking kickflip. I’ve done a few of em when I was young but they sucked. Cheers 🍻
Anyone knows if i can listen to the beat from this vid somewhere ?

Wait is that nyjah’s skatepark?
Yep😊
Nice kick flip but the rest was trash. I had to go to Instagram then CZcams and so much random stuff not mad at you. I've been able to kick flip for over ten years just mad because I couldn't actually comment because social media is garbage now. Do a pop shuv or a truck stand people don't know what that is haha
Glad to see his back foot is closer to the toe side pocket. Im getting more consistent but having a hard time evening out so I watched some mike mo trick tip and he claims you should have your back foot way over towards the heel side part of the tail and it screwed my kickflips up way worse. Really goes to show how everyone does things different, in this video they even real nice so I wonder what I wonder my I need to adjust with mine.
Worst kickflip tutorial I've seen, he is not explaining much, and the few things he tries to explain are poor taught, for instance how to keep the board under you, while flipping, or also the foot positioning is very confuse. His kickflips were good though
