How to Pressure Flip Easy

What this video teaches

Breaks the pressure flip down to a single core skill: the back-foot scoop. Teaches a one-foot drill, front foot completely off the board, to isolate the pressing-and-scraping motion that drags the tail around to the front, before ever combining it with the front foot.

Key tips

• 1Master the pressure flip motion first with your front foot completely off the board and only your back foot on it
• 2Press down and scrape the tail against the ground rather than just popping straight down like an ollie
• 3Listen for the scrape sound; that scraping is what drags the back end of the board all the way around to become the front
• 4Keep your toes hanging slightly off the tail edge so you can scoop through the full motion
• 5Let the board flip up and hover directly over your foot rather than launching away from you
• 6Once the one-foot motion is consistent, bring the front foot back on and get it out of the way immediately on pop with zero influence on the flip
• 7Practice the isolated scoop repeatedly; that single drill is what makes the full trick click
