What this video teaches

This Braille tutorial actually covers the double tre flip (a 360 shove-it plus a double kickflip), a related but more advanced combination trick. Its core lesson, keep your front foot in the same spot you'd use for a single trick and simply snap it harder rather than repositioning, is the most transferable cue for anyone trying to add rotations to an already-solid flip trick like the heelflip.

Key tips

  • Have your single version of the trick completely locked in before attempting to double the rotation
  • Keep your front foot in the exact same position you use for the single trick, do not move it, just increase the force of the snap
  • Load the extra rotation almost entirely into a harder, faster snap of the front foot, not a change in setup
  • Watch the board the entire time it is spinning so you do not put your feet down for a primo landing
  • If you keep landing primo, go back to a step-off drill: pop and snap with your front foot only, without trying to land, until the rotation completes fully
  • Suck your knees up during the flight so the board has room to keep spinning underneath you instead of stalling against your legs
  • Learning off a small bump or mellow ramp first can give you extra force for the rotation compared to flat ground
  • Expect the trick to feel like a much longer hang time than it looks like from the outside, commit through that feeling rather than bailing early
