This title is really encouraging, i started skating a month or two ago and i've been feeling really demotivated with my progress, but you just got me to realize that i'll get there when i get there and the time will be all the more valuable for it
Getting better at skateboarding takes a lot longer than you imagine in the beginning. Try not to focus on one trick and make sure you feel good on the board. Also try to skate at least 3-4 times a week if you want to progress. Once a week wont get you far. Skating with people that are better than you can help a lot!!
Ya I was around skate boarding since I was like 5yo n I didn't land a kick flip till I was 11 .. everyone is different tho , I know some kids who can tre flip
This old man here say it not the tricks it the style you bring expressing your soul. Skateboarding is a passion you what to do. A true skater knows how not to give up even in pain to land that trick. I never mastered the kick flip. I moved on in life nollies got sweeter. My ollies got fatter. I built a style around not knowing I could land a flip all the time or at all. But hey go out and skate and have fun smile and laugh. Don't forget boys and girls if your the smartest or best in the room your in the wrong place. Be humble to teach and be wise to learn.
I didnt learn how to kickflip for 7 years. I ended up learning kickflip, heelflip, pop shuv, 50-50, and boardslide. After eating shit multiple times decided i just like to ride in general the tricks aint for everyone
I also needed a very long time, like abt 3 years to stand my first kickflip. One week after landing it I got diagnosed with spondylylosis and a bone marrow hematoma. That was yesterday. I really hope that I will be allowed to skate again but probably for me that’s the end of skating. Sometimes we take things as for granted until they suddenly aren’t posisible anymore, so guys, don’t do tricks you hate for years but just go to the park and find your own style
Thought I was the only one 😭 so much other fun stuff that came easier so I never just stuck with it and learned. This is insanely motivating thank you!!🙌🙌🙌
Hell yea dude! I just recently skate boarded a bowl for first time after 7 months of skating I had a blast. Loved seeing that satisfaction when you landed it good job!
Well done - funny thing is, that kickflip made me quit skateboarding for a while. I was capable of fakie 540 big spins and 360 flips pretty consistently, however kickflip was one "basic" that I just couldn't get for a few years.
I have sk8ted since I was a pup and haven’t been on my deck for about 10 years due to injuries and I got the deck out the other day and did some kick flips and some Ollie’s on the grass for about half a hour and 2 days later and the top of my legs still feel like chuck Norris has been booting me like a punch bag 😝 well done to the dude in the video it’s a great feeling 👌🏻
I’ve taught myself how to kickflip 7 times in my life. I learn them and get them like I’ve ever landed a fakie backside kickflip in a game of skate and it was clean but then next week I lose them. Now I’m almost 21 and I’m scared of hurting my ankles since that’s all I’ve done growing up. I’m just looking for someone in the same boat as me to give me some motivation to get them back.
i learned to varial kick flip before i can even kick flip but idk keep my body centered w the board while doing a kick flip is hard, and doing that x motion with ur arms while bending down is so uncomfortable for me so maybe today i’ll start my journey of landing a kickflip 🤷🏽
Dude, get rid of those pants, they are dangerous! Not to mention you will never see any of the greats like Rodney Mullen, Jay Boy Adams, Tony Alva, etcetera wearing pants like that, for one simple reason, they constrict style and mobility! You will skate way better in pants that allow better mobility, skate safe bro, not dangerous of foolhardy. Anyways, great work, may you keep being rad, and skating!
Camera man was finally freed after 4 years waiting for this moment
maybe get baggier pants it will help you stick the landing cuz u will fall slower (the pants act as a parachute)
the twin cannon jncos work for me
😂😂 the weirdest skate advice I have ever heard
@@timolawuyi1501 u wanted to say "most useful"
@@lxneleszxn it sounds like a cartoon advice, but you seem serious about it, I want to believe it would work 😂
@@timolawuyi1501bro you don’t understand. All pro skaters use it so it works. Simple at that
This title is really encouraging, i started skating a month or two ago and i've been feeling really demotivated with my progress, but you just got me to realize that i'll get there when i get there and the time will be all the more valuable for it
Just use this time getting comfortable on your board. The tricks will come eventually.

Skating is HARD. You gotta WANT to progress… getting upset/down on yourself/frustrated can damage the process…. Take your time and enjoy yourself

Clean af bro keep grinding 🔥
Nice video, keep up the good work.
hell yeah dude!! you didn't give up and that's what it's abouttttt
Landed my first kickflip after 5 years of skating last week, it’s the best feeling
kickflips looking good all you need to do to fix it is push yourself foward with the board
Well done - funny thing is, that kickflip made me quit skateboarding for a while. I was capable of fakie 540 big spins and 360 flips pretty consistently, however kickflip was one "basic" that I just couldn't get for a few years.
0:30 good advice and maybe put tighter pants on, to see the board better. Anyways, good kickflip, good luck with your skating!
Yeah but style points though
great job!!!
bro ik exactly how u feel it took me 3 years to land a kickflip great job
Sick keep it up 🔥
Gzzz my bro
Good job man
Vc poderia ter desistido, porém você perseverou. Parabéns. Vc é um herói do skate.
Sick!! 🙌🔥
I love your videos
I have sk8ted since I was a pup and haven’t been on my deck for about 10 years due to injuries and I got the deck out the other day and did some kick flips and some Ollie’s on the grass for about half a hour and 2 days later and the top of my legs still feel like chuck Norris has been booting me like a punch bag 😝 well done to the dude in the video it’s a great feeling 👌🏻
Heel flip might be a easier option i learned to heel way before kick but anyway practice makes perfect keep on keeping on
Nice! 🤘🔥
love your shoes
Congratz.
dude fuck yeah
That's what's up 👍 keep skating
bruh… 4 years?? I thought I had no potential because it took me 9 months to learn kickflip, now I realize that each person has their own time.
Tighter shoes and pants that fit will help you immensely and be way safer! Skate or Live bro! Great video! Subbed and Liked!

nice board bro i bought the same one
Yooo you go to STIX tooooo!!!!
that's the best feeling
Putting wax on your tail really helps
Don't angle your front foot so much, that helped me get really good flicks. My feet are parallel to each other when I setup foe kickflips
i learned to varial kick flip before i can even kick flip but idk keep my body centered w the board while doing a kick flip is hard, and doing that x motion with ur arms while bending down is so uncomfortable for me so maybe today i’ll start my journey of landing a kickflip 🤷🏽
You need to stand more square to the board, so your shoulders are in line with the deck. It’ll help a lot.
Hell yeah bro
Hellll yeahhh!
Doing tricks stationary is hard mode, you gotta roll I promise
Them parachutes on your legs holding you back.
🔥🔥
Is that a stix board? My local stix closed 😢
+aura at the end with the clap
🤘💪
🔥
Flick your toe/foot UP, not out/forward.
respect
w mans
I have skated for 7 years and still can't kickflip..
It tooks 1 and half year for me to do it, I hated it, and now I hate heel :))
After 7 years of skating (granted I took time off during that) I landed a kickflip bolts and immediately is swept out from under me
ggs
Ride slowly instead of standing still.
Skating since 1992 😉
Yes!
Now it begins
🤙
if youre jeans were baggier you would definitely have landed it 2 years ago
I mean, he got the pants down
but still cant kickflip 💀
@@helpiamsuffering603a comment on a video of him doing a kickflip lmao
took me 7 years to kickflip.
😇
ive been skating for 4 years and i lost my comittment to my tricks, im cooked?
Just practice while moving
IT BEGAN
Smaller pants and tighter laced shoes might help. As well as kicking ur front foot to the side more and front less. 😊
4 year and I still can’t do a ollie
So the issue was loose shoes
Yeah you got the trick and first learn the olie it can helping to land any tricks
Buttery
really?
bro 💀
sorry dude but what have you been doing for 4 years
Learning everything but kick flips😭
Imagine how much cool shit you could have done with those 4 years. All you ended up with was a kickflip.
bro, I learned in 6 months of skating
congrats
4 years ?
I've been skating for two years and I can get
I learned kickflip after like 6 months
Same
4 years... aint no way
4 years????
Landed a kickflip after 4 days of skating
skibidi
No mames 4 years!!!! Thats fucked
100 times easier while moving btw
Your front foot is pretty far back on the board, which is why 98% of the attempts the board ends up in front of you.
took me one day
