TESTING Dylan Jaeb’s LAZY Flick Technique! 

I think Dylan's laid back style comes only after years of having to actually work for it. Its muscle memory.

For anyone struggling with nollie flips, take it from someone who's been drilling nollie and switch for 5 months straight. There's a couple of things that you have to do different to your standard kick flip. You HAVE to have a solid nollie. Second, when you pop the nollie, it's not a downward popping motion, it's more of a forward popping motion. That pushing motion for me helps time the flick which brings me to my third tip. The nollie flip is all about timing. You HAVE to lift the popping foot for the board to level out and that's the secret to the timing. You flick after you lift the front foot.

Dylan jaeb has basically figured out the exact amount of effort to output in order to do any trick so as to conserve the most energy for more skating

You're not lifting your popping foot, that's why yours is staying rocket. I've been skating only nollie and switch for 4 months straight and that's a key component of the nollie flip. Instead of pushing downward, pop the nollie in a forward direction. Pushing forward creates a dragging feeling so when you flick it helps level it out. It seems like you're trying to find a cheat code to compensate for your lack of jumping height. As someone who is obsessed with flexibility and mobility, there's no cheat code to work around the lack of flexibility. Myself and others have commented numerous times that doing simple squats with a weight would benefit you so much. Hopefully one day you'll figure out the hack you need doesn't require a skateboard.

Nice man! I've been learning nollie flips because of your videos! Always love the in-depth analysis. Keep it up! 🙌

I learned nollie flips after learning nollie varial flips. They’re a lot easier and help to understand the timing of the flip

One day I’ll get one of these down! Keep ‘em coming.

came at the right time because when i learned it from your Manny technique idk why i lost it so i have to find another technique good video keep going

Excellent observation

Gooooood analysis man 🔥

Huge fan Keep up the work God bless

nice video . I think as i get older, my kickflips have shifted to the lazy kickflip. Its a nice simple "chill" trick

one thing i think of when doing a nollie flip is like my fakie flips. when going backwards (fakie) my shoulders are open in that direction. so when doing nollie turn your back shoulder out so your flipping foot doesn't get stuck and you have that range of motion available.

dylan always got that dumb grin on his face lmaooo good vid like usual joe

What’s super impressive is that he lands with his feet set up for the next trick. Just insane…..

w dylan w locsl joe

Solid Nollie flips! totally get what you mean about them being hard to balance standing like that. But after you've been doing them for a while, its definitely just a fun way to mix up how you do the trick with minimal effort!

I recently started picking up skating and I was wondering why nobody skates like that first clip. One of the first combos I did was nollie-ollie

looked good at the end there! but maybe work on flicking a bit straighter towards the end of your flick! I think you talked about this in a previous video? where you lead with your knee? that helps even when doing lazy flicks 😁

The best way to learn I found is to practice the trick on pretty much every obstacle, for example for the KF I just did it off a curb, then up a curb, into a drop-in and off a kicker,.. until you do it on bigger sets or up a few stairs regularly. That way you learn how to pop your trick/adjust your body in every situation possible and in no time you'll see the instant progress once you're back just doing it on flatground. Doing regular motion exercises like squats and dynamic stretches really helped get more explosive too.

Wheelbase is the key… 14 inch paired with big twin noses. And the fact that Thunder 144 are some of the lightest trucks . And ofc his talent to make things look easy 😀

Ima try to use this to learn how to kick flip see if it effects me

W Dylan . I'd love to see local Joe do interviews as long as he doesn't fangirl to much 😂

Can you do nollie bs flips next ?

i would love one of those in a line

Bro knew I was about to focus nollie flips today

So essentially you're turning your weight diagonal. By putting pressure in both pockets you end up tilting the board a little bit the wrong way during the pop which lets your flick foot catch the board easier and flick it better. Right?

Yeah tilts the board toward the flicking foot so you get better contact

W Dylan

Dylan blows my mind on how he keeps his popping foot in such an unconventional spot and is able to pop so high. Further more i never thought of using the opposite foot position to create a faster flip. Great discussion here.

Ina try it nollie flip has always been a tough one for me

Could u do how to kickflip like Filipe mota pls

I would get your basic switch flip down before you go to nollie flip it but if your going to then with your popping foot almost roll your board forward and let it push into your foot it helps do them easier if you don’t have any flick strength yet. For a switch flip pop a high switch Ollie and lift up the board while your flicking that Ollie and flick off the side after you gain some height it gives you more time to land and looks incredible and makes your switch feel more comfortable overtime.

Local steeze whattup. How’s the quasi holding up?

Tried the same technique when I saw Dylan posted that clip. However, I mimicked the motion too. You can see Dylan really lifts his back foot and flicks forward. And this turns out to be the key for me. Kickflips are now nice and tweaked! But one thing to mention is that in order to mimic the motion, flexibility and mobility is key. There’s really no hack or cheat when it comes to skating.

He puts his back foot so close to the concave!

That man joe 🔥🙏🏾🙏🏾

what pants are those ?

Tight trucks! Enough said.

you a goat

I see a lot of youre videos, i think we are the same body size, for us i think is just pick up our knees, did a nollie once and said to my self lets pick up these heavy legs and see wha happend, and the nollie just sky rocket and it stuck the the shoes

dylan jaeb is just crazy lmao watch his new “hi” part;)

The secret to Dylan Jaebs style is floating in the air as long as you can and flipping the board quite slowly. He style is the opposite for instance Sewa Kroetkow, who admittely pops high but he flicks super fast, catches the board immediately and stomps down the board hard. Dylan Jaeb on the other floats like he's weightless.

Hey dude ive been skatin since 93 and have only ever landed one nollie....on accident lol

❤❤❤

This idea works great for bs flips as well

Next time you say I don’t pop, imma just say I’m Dylan Jaeb 😏

The kid is such a freak bro he lands set up for the next flip so he flips it and lands in the position to do the next one precisely it’s so fucking beyond impressive

Its 3 am i wanna go skate

His lazy flips are as high as my try hard kickflips

It’s called pinch. Skate Hacks talks about it a lot. Works great for every flip trick, especially tre flips and halfcab heels.

Just landed my first nollie flip, thanx Local Joe, thanx Jaeb

Good you got it though

Ellis Frost is the same, crazy pop, but can also lazy skate.

I use the same technic

I actually think it looks better to pop lower to the ground if it’s just flatground. Popping high makes way more sense when you’re popping off a bump, or over something. The chill style is fresh in the right context.

He’s just so good he can flick in any position with no effort. Period. No secrets sorry

Looks like its the way he "tucks" his feet out of the way letting is flip without all the effort ...for the "lazy" ones

Tell us whats on feet 🤓

I am old and fat too ❤

Amazing channel. You probably know this but if you were to lose weight in a controlled manner whilst committing to lower body weight training, within 4 months your skating would be transformed.

Stop saying your old and fat you are doing good

The video cover shows him with a 666 on his forehead. If you’re interested, look into the link between Satan and skateboarding. It’s been around since skateboarding started.

This is voodo shit,haha,black magic

The only difference is genetics

Stop leaning and start pulling your feet up, more, and all of your tricks will be improved. Neither require you to "jump" higher. Not trying to be a dick but you're bending your back on the squat and leaning forward, I'm no physiologist but that seems like a lack of core strength... Leaning towards the outside of the wheels is throwing off your center of balance and that limits your ability to, jump, straight upward and to land, properly. Keep your upper back straight and don't roll your shoulders, forward, because that dips your head too and swings your weight in that direction - keep your chin up and shoulders in line with how you want the board to be orientated, lead with the forward knee and bend your legs, only. Shoulders (and arms) go up, then down, then up, again. You just want to straighten that back out. Your shoulders should not be leaning over the edge of the board.... Secondly, tuck those feet in, towards your back pockets, after you do the trick. If you jump 2 feet high (where the bottom of your shoe reaches) and you don't tuck in/up your feet, your tricks will never go higher than a foot or less and not have time to level out/complete rotation/give your other foot time to get out of the way and then back onto the board. I get it, it's a matter of physical limitations. I'm 36 and trust me, I have to be extra careful to not get broke off and seriously hurt because my body is at that point of showing the signs of living a hard life...anyway, even in my situation, I can better my situation through conditioning. Work on squats, weighted squats and unweighted, work on ankle flexibility, work on static jumps (jumping in place) and focus on tucking those feet upward and keep the back straight. Work on your core strength, too. It's not very difficult and trust me, it will improve your skating and your life, in general. Not trying to be harsh, so don't take it like that, just a couple observations and what I think, might help you get to the "next level" with your skating 🤙🤙

I'm old and fat! But I still want to make crappy tricktip vids. Try throwing your phone into a ravine. You are DONE!

Whoa! This guy CANNOT SKATE! Do you only skate for 2 min a day? Try 8 hours. It's actual work. Oh but your an old man trying to meet little boys. Ok. Not skater built, but like Jared from Subway.
