How do I land a kickflip better in skateboarding?

First of all you have to know how to kickflip! How to land a kickflip better is pop it as high as you can and the foot that kicks out to make it flip, put it down a bit lower on your grip. This took me like 8 weeks to learn but once you get the trick landed you will feel so good and all your friends will be so happy! Hope you larn a kickflip:)


Should you learn the kickflip or heelflip first?

It took me about one or two months to learn the kickflip. The hardest part is learning how to land it. It only took about 12 days to learn to heelflip after learning to kickflip, because the hardest part about both of them is just learning how to land the trick (Once you are comfortable with spinning the board all the way over, concentrate on lifting your back foot up.) You land them about the same way, you spin the board, lift up your legs, let it spin, and land it. It doesn't take very long to learn how to flip the board, so all I had to was learn to spin the board with a heelflip. It doesn't really matter which one you learn first, they are very similar. I think you should learn the kickflip first, but that's just because to me kickflips are easier to do. I think they are easier to spin. The hardest part is just learning to land it, once you can land one of the tricks, you've basically just learned both of them. You just have to learn how to spin the other one. Make sure when you try to spin a heelflip, that you are dragging your foot up, and flicking it off at the concave. When you are trying to spin a kickflip, make sure you are flicking off the concave also and that you are flicking out and not down. If you flick down you will slam the board into the ground. Make sure and don't flick too hard when doing a kickflip. This will cause your board to shoot out away from you. You just want to go out a few inches past the concave, and do it lightly. If you have any other problems just let me know and I'll see if I can help you! :)

How old do you need to be to kick flip?

There is no age when you are able to kickflip. You can do a kickflip at any age. You just have to practice a lot. It took me 4 months to kickflip, and that was when I was 12. I've seen 6 year olds land a kickflip.
