What this video teaches

Compact skatedeluxe trick tip describing the backside 180 kickflip as a direct blend of backside 180 foot placement and kickflip flick mechanics, with the pop, flip, and rotation cued to happen in the same motion. Short and mechanical, useful as a quick-reference checklist rather than a full breakdown.

Key tips

  • Place the back foot slightly more toward the inside of the tail, and the front foot slightly behind the front bolts in the kickflip-angled position
  • Build momentum with the shoulders before popping the tail, exactly as for a standalone backside 180
  • Pop the tail down and behind with the back foot to drive the backside rotation
  • Execute the kickflip flick with the front foot at the same time as the backside 180 body motion, not as two separate steps
  • Pull both legs up to give the board room to complete the full flip while the body turns
  • Catch on the bolts once the board has finished rotating, then ride away
