Grind Session

 

This trick is the logical progression of the fakie 180 shove-it. Its kind of hard to visualize without seeing it done. Essentially, you start out rolling backward, kick the board into a 360, and when you kick it, you turn your body 180 degrees. The board does a 360 and your body does a 180. You begin rolling backward, and end rolling forward (with your board backward). This trick is actually easier to do than a regular 360 shove it. By doing this trick, you will become accustomed to the board doing a 360 motion under you, and then move on to the regular 360 shove it. The Big Spin is also fun to do going down curbs.When you get the 360 down, you can shove it extra hard, and the board will do a 540. The 540 variation is really cool looking, because there is a lot going on. NOTE: You will notice from the illustrations that the board doesn’t stay exactly over the center line. Unlike the simpler 180 version of this trick, the board doesn’t just pivot over one truck. The hard kick for the 360 tends to create enough torque to get both ends of the board moving. Start by rolling backwards at slow to moderate speed (you can to it going fast, but if you are just learning to skate, try it going a little slow first-its really easy to bust you ass on tricks like this where you start off rolling backward, and land it rolling backward. I know this is not "balls-out" advice, but theres no need for any unnecessary ass-busting).One foot on the tail, one foot on top of the front truck (or maybe slightly in front of the front truck).Use your front foot to kick the board in a 360 motion in front of you, and at the same time jump up. Use the momentum of your leg swing to spin your body in a 180, so you will land facing the other way. You actually jump a little bit in the same direction that the board is going, so that you can land squarely on it.The board does a 360 underneath you, while your body is turning 180 degrees in the air.Often times, you will find that your feet actually make contact with the board as it is completing the 360. You and the board finish the spins at the same time. The board is almost finished spinning, and you are about in landing position from your slower 180 spin. Land on the board. The ends of the board will be in the same position as when you started, but you will still be rolling

 

 

 

its similar to an ollie it starts off the same way feet in same place 4 an ollie 1.kick down like an ollie
2.except with ur front foot  u either kick it foward or backward depending on whitch way u wanna shuv it (u have to kick it but let it slide kinda under ur feet)
3.let the board rotate and catch
4.land it
5.roll away

Ok heres the next trick on the list is heelflips.its similar to kickflips but its in the other direction.its a lil more complicated but u will get it 1. back foot as if u were gunna ollie
2.front foot like a inch behind bolts on 45 degree angle on the oppisite side of the board then where u would put ur foot to ride(heel kinda in the middle of the board)
3.pop the ollie and as the front of the board hits its peak hit the concave of the board with side of ur shoe
4.see grip catch n stick
5.land it
6.roll away

Simmilar to the first 3 steps of an ollie.A kickflip is a basic trick u learn after an ollie.yet again not to hard just minor different movments

1.instead of having ur front foot in the middle of the board move it about an inch or inch and a half behind front bolts on 45 degree angle
2.once u are in this position u kick down like when u would do an ollie
3.But instead of pushin ur foot foward u flick it off the concave of the nose (this is what will make the board flip)
4 watch it flip n when u see the grip catch the board n stick it to the ground
5.absorb impact
6.roll away

Ok the first starting trick literaly.Once u can do this you have the basics to do almost anyother trick in the book. To do an ollie is not to hard or complicated , its just figuring out the timing .heres the steps on how to ollie based on how i do them.

1. You have to be moving
2. when you start to ride put ut back foot on the tail (closer to the pop because u dont want ur foot slippin off)
3.Put ur front foot bout the middle of the deckmayb a lil farther up

Thats just the prep heres the steps on how to do the trick

1 when ur feet are in the right position u push down on the tail as hard as u want(harder u do it most likely the higher)
2. when u do that pull ur front foot up as high as u want
3. but as soon as u do that  slide front foot up and pull ur back foot up to even out mid air
4.The croutch as ur comin down
5. absorb impact
6.Roll away

Theres ur how to on ollies
