@@jeweerly2319 Idk, it's one of the better ways I found to build to fast twitch muscles in your ankles and calfs. 90% of this shit is just trial and error, but being able to practice the motion and build a foundation even when I'm still learnin to land on my board seems more than useless. Helps w foot placement too cause you'll just dome yourself in the mouth or get upside-down popsicled if you miss catching your board. Idk dog just talkin.

So, pretty much what you said in the vid, lol Your advice of "flick slower" also lines up with a trick tip Lizard King did ages ago saying to "delay the flick" for better-looking (popped nice & high) kickflips. Like, no lie, this & Dale Decker's trick tips on kickflips are probably some of the best I've found.

@zzzdeprivedgang9723 Жыл бұрын
This honestly helps but its how u understand the video because he didnt really explain it. You weight down the board when squating low to do the trick you are more balenced . With this, if you are upright you Are less balenced but its easier to do the trick because youre weighing the board down less You are more balanced but it makes it TWICE as hard to jump back UP to kickflip(anytrick tbh) depending how deep u squat

This is probably because your body needs some rest to buil nerve pathways for your muscles. Basically your body records what muscles you twitched on "succesfuler" attempts. After resting the body builds the needed muscles and pathways, which makes yoyr stronger, more balanced, and more coordinated. This makes you more confident on the board
