I just did this for the first time at the skatepark today before even watching this and I have say that when u go up the ramp u can feel when it’s right to turn
frontside and backside is defined with your orientation relative to whatever you're tricking on. that's a backside kickturn because you're butt is towards the ramp
Thanks for the video! I just started skateboarding again after owning one in high school just for fun, it's been a blast crusing around town and I wanna learn to skate transition.
Just subbed, it is a good explanation and tutorial on shifting weight. I had a problem on kicking turning on ramp that my body wasn’t facing downward completely to the ramp after I kick turned so my weight would be on rear foot , then the board shoot out and I had to jump off my board.
this is so helpful. everytime i asked my friends how to do it they jsut said look the other way but the details and tips were so helpful, thank u sm :)
i had a buddy today tell me to go up a hip an kick turn out an damn did i fall today lol just started an looked up how to kick turn out an had to click this video once i seen it thank you ben lol
The problem I have is pumping when kickturn in order to gain speed or mantain it at least, no one teaches that on youtube, and it's so important, becuase I can do kick turns, but every single time I lose speed
@@JJ-el6qx Braille has a good video on it, I don’t know how to explain it but it’s basically putting strategic pressure on the board to gain momentum on a slope so you don’t lose speed. Usually you ride with knees bent but to pump, on a ramp, just before you hit the flat you push your weight into the board straightening your legs before you go back into normal position.
Thanks bro im learning so fast in a less week i can ride semi not stiff and now ima go learn how to do this so i dont have to stop when i get to the ramp i also can ollie alittle bit 😊😊😊
do i HAVE to push mongo? couldnt you just push switch and get in a kind of nollie position and then kickturn? or am i just beeing goofy? xD pun intended
