How to inward heelflip on a skateboard! [EASY TUTORIAL] | Garrett Ginner

What this video teaches

Garrett Ginner (early tutorial from before the Braille video) explains that the back foot goes in the opposite pocket from what you would expect, and gives clear fixes for the two most common rotation problems.

Key tips

• 1Back foot goes in the frontside-shove-it pocket (heelside corner), not the toeside pocket. Just pop, barely scoop, then flick the front foot out.
• 2Front foot starts in a standard heelflip position and flicks out so the heel catches the corner of the board and initiates the rotation.
• 3If the board rotates but does not flip (90-degree inward heel): scoop the back foot slightly harder and keep the front foot motion the same.
• 4If the board flips but does not rotate fully (lands nose-first or upside down): ease off the scoop and focus more on the outward front-foot flick.
• 5The heel should naturally catch the nose corner of the board during the flick, driving both the flip and the rotation from one motion.
• 6Both problems (no flip, no rotate) are opposite corrections, so diagnose which you have before adjusting.
