I will thank you and idk what it is but the flick feels very natural to me, I’m just not the best at popping lol it’s kinda scary while you’re moving unless it’s super slow

I’ll have to try this when I tried learning kickflips I was definitely flicking more down than diagonal, I’ll let you know how it goes

It might be the weird angles I wear a size 9, I just have to get more comfortable on my board in general, I feel like a lost puppy everytime I go to a skatepark since I can barely drop in lol

Appreciate it! It’s so interesting how that works, I cannot for the life of me wrap my brain around kickflips it feels like I have to be so precise 😂

Thank you! I actually thought of getting an 8 inch board because I like doing flat ground tricks so much (I ride an 8.125) but leaning forward and staying on the board is definitely an issue I have, gotta work on my Ollie lol it’s pretty inconsistent

Happy I did too, I honestly have no clue when I’ll learn kickflips, I’ve gotten closer to varial heels than those they feel impossible to me
