5 Things You Should NEVER DO When Learning Tre Flips

What this video teaches

SKATE HACKS covers the 5 most common tre flip mistakes, framing each as something to avoid: leaning forward too much, feet ending up too close together after the scoop, back foot flat on the board, back foot not in the scooping position, and over-focusing on the kickflip. Each mistake is shown visually and corrected with a specific fix.

Key tips

• 1Do not lean forward: balance weight evenly or lean slightly back so the board flips under or in front of you, not behind
• 2After the scoop, do not let the back foot follow all the way up toward the front foot: return it to its normal position to avoid feet crowding together
• 3Back foot must be on the toes with pressure on the toe edge, not flat on the board like a kickflip stance
• 4Back foot must be in the scooping position with toes hanging off the toe-side edge: without it the board will not complete the full 360 rotation
• 5Do not over-focus on the kickflip: the front foot just needs to be there for the catch, not aggressively flicked
• 6Pressure on the toes of the back foot creates the scoop pressure point and drives both the rotation and the flip
• 7If the board flips behind you rather than in front, you are leaning too far forward
• 8The front foot with minimal motion can still complete a full rotation as long as the back foot scoop is correct
