What this video teaches
Skate Warehouse gives a short walkthrough of the full casper flip at slow speed, with the front foot covering the front two bolts and the back foot square on the tail. The key difference from a kickflip is that the front foot stays attached to the board underneath after the half flip rather than coming off. From there the front foot swings around clockwise to bring the board back under you, it lands back on its wheels, and the back foot catches it.
Key tips
- Roll at a pretty slow speed; there is a lot happening in this trick
- Front foot covers the front two bolts, back foot sits square on the tail
- Pop it like a normal kickflip and slide the front foot halfway, but keep the foot on the board so it only flips over
- Once the board is flipped over, keep the front foot attached to the underside and swing it around clockwise to flip the board back under you
- Catch the board with your back foot as it comes back onto its wheels, then land and ride away
- Having kickflips down first covers roughly half of this trick
