In this step-by-step tutorial, we’ll teach you how to master the hardflip with pro skater Dominick Walker. Get more details on TWS' website article, Learn How to Hardflip Like a Pro in 5 Minutes: www.skateboarding.com/how-to/...
The hardflip is a complex trick that combines a kickflip with a frontside shove-it, making it one of the more challenging tricks to learn. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced skateboarder looking to take your flip tricks to the next level, our tutorial is perfect for you. With Domo’s expert guidance, you’ll be well on your way to mastering the hardflip and impressing your friends at the skate park. We’ll start with the basics, such as foot placement and how to pop the tail of the board, before guiding you through the process of sliding your front foot diagonally towards the board’s heelside to execute the flip, and catching the board with your front foot. Finally, we’ll show you how to level out the board with your back foot and land the trick successfully.

Nothing beats the feeling of landing a trick you've been trying to land for a long, long time. Anyone out there trying to learn hardflips, just keep at it. And remember, that back foot is crucial.

@joshb9657 Год назад

Explain more on the back foot, been trying for years

@Serdy Год назад

@@joshb9657 There are many ways of explaining a trick, but the way I used to teach people hardflips was to position your back foot further back on the tail, like he says in the video, and then look down at your board. Look at your board and imagine it's one half of a "V", with the other half being an imaginary line in front of you. When you go to pop your board, you want your back foot to push in the direction of that imaginary line. If you do it a few times without trying to flick the board at all, you'll be able to focus on where you're sending your board with your back foot. If you're goofy, your board is the right side of the "V" and your imaginary line is angled to the left. If you're regular, then that imaginary line is the right side of this "V". When you pop, your back foot pushes in the path of the imaginary line and your board should naturally follow a mostly vertical path. Once you understand what your back foot is supposed to do, you can start to add in the front foot to flick it. I've found that with hardflips, your front leg needs to bend at the hip a bit more than if you were trying something like a kickflip. If you've ever messed around with playing hacky sack, it's a very similar motion that I'm describing. I hope this helps and isn't confusing.

@@Serdy wow amazing description, thanks for putting in the time to explain a method I've never heard of, appreciate it bro

@chrissutphin894 Год назад

no lie, i landed my first hardflip today after trying them hard for 4 days straight. i know that sounds like a little amount of time but i have fs shuvs and kickflips on lock so it came natural. it felt so good

@Serdy Год назад

@@chrissutphin894 dude fuck yes! That's sick!

@tilen3870 Год назад

For anyone having problems: try positioning the backfoot like you're doing a tre flip (literally grasping front edge of the board with your toes). When popping, pop as a fs shove it (but like i said, foot in a tre flip/bs shove it position). With a minimum hardflip flick from a front foot, the board should automatically flip into a hardflip. Also legs close together, and the flick from the front foot isn't like a kickflip, but more subtle - you wanna get that front foot out the way asap.

@madjc13 13 дней назад

This is how i do them in SW

@tilen3870 13 дней назад

@@madjc13yep, as soon as I started doing them with my back foot in a tre flip position on the tail (instead of the fs shove it position), they 'unlocked' for me.

@hodarineph638 Месяц назад

Herman got the best hard flips I’m glad you reminded me of them lol

@B0H0 Год назад

Haven't skated in 15 years. But i'd love to learn how to hard flip.

@brett7y7 11 месяцев назад

Scooping/pushing the tail forward with the backfoot is key. That's why sometimes you see people who aren't great switch skaters can do switch hardflips well. This is because their dominant foot is on the tail when they ride switch and it makes this important scooping/pushing the tail forward action easier. I had a friend who couldn't do hardflips or frontside flips between the legs riding regular stance, but he could do them switch sometimes.

@MrGwaldo Год назад

This is a good tutorial. This is one trick I can’t do after 40 years skating.

@EDAYSkate 3 месяца назад

eu aprendi hardflip a uns 4 meses, mas estava tendo dificuldades para por na base, minha posição do pé variava muito as vezes, tentei de muitos jeitos para deixar ele na base de fato, e após ver vários vídeos e treinar muito posso dizer que encontrei o meu jeito, assim como no vídeo, pé da frente mais pra trás facilita muito o flip, e o pé de trás bem cheio no tail de lado, outro detalhe importantíssimo no hardflip é chutar o flip praticamente junto com o shuvit, assim da tempo de pousar com tranquilidade, espero ter ajudado quem esta tentando, não desistam, eu acertava um por semana no começo, agora to acertando um em seguida de outro, continuem firmes !!

@ridefreeordie831 Год назад

It's an easy trick to flip. The commitment part is the hardest. It's kinda flipping behind you like a front shove.

@MrJustinsideher Год назад

With the commitment part I have noticed the pre load and almost pre pop like how u get ur body up (spring) with getting higher tre flips. So really squatting and timing to get ur body up so u can commit. Another fluid way to do this subconsciously (for me) is the "eagle wings" method, I made this word up. But u can see Darnell walkers hands as he pops and lands. Imagine exadurating[typo ;) ] these hand and arm motions like eagle wings almost. If u understand this abstraction. it will get ur body up & as long as u squatted, popped, the timing is working out on the board motions, and if ur in the air and ur arms ar up at peak hight and the board flips before the land u should be able to stick and commit. If it is not flipping and u have not credit carded by now, at least this will give u air time to work out the board flip mechanics or maybe get some other lofty cool trick lol. Hopefully if this is not to abstract & Hopefully I will not b committed to an asylum lol, jk. *Alternatively seeking advice on front foot flip because I back foot the heck out of myn and have seen some confusion on if it is a hard flip, 2.5' pressure flip(on a good day bud), or other due to me getting my front foot out of the way.

@booftoot Год назад

do you look at your back foot or front foot when you pop it?

@Skankhunt-hl9zj 10 месяцев назад

No matter what I try I can’t do them. I get so close but I mess up the flick when I go to jump. Lately I’ve tried to kick flip early and do a normal fs pop shiv and I get so close to landing them I feel like I can almost do it but I’m missing something. I might just not be committing fully.

Dominic walker @domowaka is easily the most underrated pro right now. Been seeing him skate since the beginning at volcom park in Costa Mesa. Easily explains the physics of the trick so a novice like me could understand.

Penicillin helps, it did for me. Jk. Big ups the Transworld skate crew in the comments!🤙

@nikosucksatskating 8 месяцев назад

None of these trick tips cover the importance of the back foot position. Back foot is positioned on the front corner of the tail and pops straight forward through the board
