What this video teaches
plusONE Skateboarding teaches the underflip as a three-step progression filmed in real time on grass with an 8.5 deck, making it beginner-friendly and honest about common mistakes. Step one is getting the flick clean so the board lands flat; step two is flicking and landing back on it with the front foot; step three is jumping with the board and riding away. The main warning is to avoid under-rotating (Primo landing) by committing to a full flick with the back foot.
Key tips
- Three-step progression: (1) flick the board flat from standing, (2) flick and land back on it with the front foot, (3) jump with the board and ride away
- Most weight stays on the front foot as you transfer back onto the board on landing
- Carry your rotation with you when you flick: your body goes with the board, not stationary
- If you are not flicking fully with the back foot the board will land Primo; commit to the full back-foot flick
- Practicing on grass is recommended when learning; it slows everything down and reduces roll-away risk
