Subscribing, liking and commenting helps me make a living doing these videos. So if you do those we are in love. I TRY TO POST DAILY AT 9:45 AM Dude has some of the highest 360flips in the game. see how it works
Dan corrigan is a true inspiration for everyone he once was homeless and he had corona at the same time but he fought hard and skated everday for all you guys this really show how much he cares for skateing and surviveing and thats very inspiring you really gotta appreciate this man thanks dan for all you do
When I learned tre flips, I found using the pocket allowed you to do short, fast ones and using the very end of the tail gives you slower but higher tres. I for whatever reason can't catch them low because of how fast it spins so I actually learned my tres that way. I think it's better to learn it like that too because when I send a low one, I jump forwards onto it but the board stays 100% under me when I jump straight up with the higher pop. Another thing is the placement of your rear foot. If you point your toes away from each other, (pop toes facing back) it'll pop higher and even slower than that. It's all experimentation. I can do tres with 3 different foot positions now, all at different heights and speed because I payed attention and studied what I was doing right and wrong.
Dude the putting your backfoot on the end of the tail has just made things click for me, when I put it in the pocket my tre flips go low and it’s hard to catch but when I put it on the edge of the tail its higher, you made me realize this thanks.
Dude, thank you for this comment. I've been doing them from the pocket and never been consistent because the jumping forward makes me drag toes or straight up miss time it and I've always wanted to get them to stay under me
@@B.Harrigan So is your foot still at an angle and on the curved portion of the tail? I'm thinking your like a few inches father up from the pocket area?
@@reza_dc2 I used to do them right in the pocket, where the curve starts, and I'd have to jump forwards. Now I do them with my foot like halfway up the tail and scoop back but also in towards the nose instead of just backwards like a shuv
yeah straight up though, when i first learned my tre's i kept my foot in the pocket, as i got more comfortable with them, i slowly started moving my foot more on the tail and further back, i eventually was able to do them every single time, no matter the foot positioning, i really think its about having that foot further back and mastering the scoop with your back foot, and the slight flick with your front foot (not necessary to flick with the front foot, but if you want a really fast tre flip that you catch while your still gaining height, you gotta learn that flick for the speed of the rotation)
As someone who doesn't skate, but has been watching skateboarders on RU-vid for years, you're absolutely killing with your content, Dan. Perfect mix of personality with skate content. Keeping it fresh with guests, analyzing and explaining methods and mindsets. Keep at it, dude.
@@theguywiththebighead5432 think of it as a ledge. if u doing a 5050 i recommend backside because u can cross lock whereas frontside you heel side lock in which is harder
Love the science Dan. Most people that are good at anything are pretty unconscious of their process, so I appreciate you shining the flashlight of conscious awareness on this special trick!
Man Sean has really gotten a lot better. Seeing him hit his first street handrail now he's busting 2 handrails in a row in a line, tail sliding hubbas first try, dude is on fire.
People flip their tres using all sorts foot placements and such, but there's one tip that will get you actually landing them...keep your shoulders square with the board like a kickflip or any other. It avoids the board landing behind you, landing on the nose, or shooting out once you land on it
I've been learning 360 flip for a year, old guy, catching it with front foot, not landing yet, BUT this has helped me: before the pop, LIFT THE HEEL of your popping foot off the board! This also helps to find balance. Literally WRAP the corner of your tail with your toes. Center your weight over the REAR TRUCK (only) as this enables you to bomb it into the pop. Then it's a bit LESS SCOOP and MORE POP. As the skater said, focus on the pop, not on jumping anywhere. As Dan has shown, do not even think of the front foot, it doesn't do much.
I used to use my front foot heavily to flick 360 flips back in the 90s and I had a friend who would always say ....."stop using your front foot to flick, it's all in the back foot, it's all in the back foot!" I didn't understand, it was the Goddamn 90s lol but now I get it and now I have to relearn them this way, it's tough but I'll get it
Yes please that idea of different skater 360 flips really appeals! I don't use front my foot much in my tre flips but my back foot isn't as much on the edge like this guy. My back foot is ugly when i want to land tres, I have to hang my toes off a lot on the tail. Deffo trying the jump up rather than forward tip! I honestly could watch you talk about tricks all day, i know you must get this a lot, but you've inspired me to get back into skating (fellow 33 year old) the best feeling landing new tricks re-learning old ones. I am a bum to you sir! but am inspired to pat the horn of the bull you have mercilessly grabbed!
May i add something, its about the pressure he puts on the board before he pops. He keeps his weight over the front foot and pops hard straight down with his back foot in that position, naturally scooping it just cause of where his toes are. For a split second he is bending the board between the his front and back foot, then his front toe is letting go as the nose raises up. Its a small bit of force but it initiates the small flip thats needed.
His tre flips remind me of a video from Elliot Frost.. like how to cheat at tre flips. He shows like really high looking tre's, no front foot and the backfoot gets under the edge to flip the board. Just reminded me of it.
Ive has luck getting 360 flips higher by trying to focus on lifting my legs and delaying the flicking motion but maybe scooting my scoop foot back on the tail and not thinking about the flicking motion is the key. Will report back asap!
There’s a key factor to everything with pop here: kicking the tail sends the board into the air on its own, pop comes from executing the front foot movement at the peak of this initial bit of air. Those high 360s come as a result of using front foot to do nothing but block/deflect the rail of the broad so it doesn’t flip the wrong way, and that blocking deflecting is done early on as the board is still traveling upward from said initial kick.
Thats so cool. I can only imagine the amount of pressure u can build in ur back foot when ur jumping straight up and not using ur front foot to flick. All the energy used to jump forward is instead put into the pop. Nice.
I love that you vlog like you skate and just keep everything. It’s actually very entertaining and I’d much rather see it than someone who makes three edits in every sentence they speak
It's the Felipe Gustavo way. They somehow do it entirely with the back foot. Ellis Frost did a video on how to do it but I cannot figure it out AT ALL.
You cannot do a tre entirely with the back foot. Not possible. Front foot has to be there - doesn't do much but it has to be there to at least slightly bonk the board off and make the flip go the right way. If the front foot isn't involved the flip goes the opposite way - and is just a pressure flip instead. Haley did a proper tutorial on it today :)
@@ezedjay It is possible. Watch the video Ellis Frost did on it. He even does one with his foot hanging off his nose to prove he doesn't use his front foot at all.
Hey Cody. How's things? Hope you're all good - I'm not just being a dick by the way. I've skated since the 80's - I've seen the 360flip techniques go more back foot over the years. I'm very familiar with that Ellis video - I watched it a whole load of times. Still looks to me like the front foot is involved in a very subtle way. When the tail hits the ground it pops back up again against minimal contact the front foot has with the board - just a tiny tiny little bit but it's enough to lift the edge of the tail up high enough to get the side of the back foot right under the edge and scoop up and forwards. I'm being picky I know :) I'd say 98% back foot / 2%front foot when Ellis does them :) He's definitely flipping it with his back foot - but the front foot still needs to be there to get the board into the position where the backfoot can do its scoopy flick. It's hard to explain it lol.
@@ezedjay I actually just learned no comply tre's the other day, and to get it right I had to learn to pop the board with only my back foot while standing on the ground before I tried it rolling with both feet on the board. It is pressure that gets the board flipping and it does end up looking pretty vertical - but it is rotating like a 360 flip not a 360 inward heel. Try it, it's not only possible but also pretty easy
Cody Mac warms up with kickflip bs tail, nollie flip crook and bs crook nollie flip EVERY DAMN TIME! And he lands them every single time too but is always so mad at how they all look. Love skating with him
This perspective helped me a lot. What was hiding me back was trying to make them flat like a varial flip. From my point of view it feels like it's flipping end over end. I figured this out learning 3 shuvs. I was accidentally getting 360 flips rotation.
The tre flip mostly flips because of the spring action with the back trucks bushings. Might really help to be heavy and have tight trucks to get them high like that?
your front foot is an interesting part of tre flips, you don't rly use it to flip but the board flips by following the shape of it, from the power of your back foot, that's kinda why a lot of people have their front foot more on the edge because it kinda just lightly wraps around it once you pop straight down . Weird explanation but yea, dope video, dope trick, dope breakdown hell yea!!!
Jordans explanation is what works for me too, about all we have in common skate wise though lol... But if I just simply focus on jumping high to make sure to give time for the board to rotate, I land it almost every try
Dude Daniel, you are the joe rogan of the skate world. I'll admit I was a hater at first and looked for anything to unfairly critique/make fun of.(whats wrong with me). Skaters be like that..however u are the inspirational one changing that. Thanks for all the hard work.glad its paying off for u..u deserve it!
That looks like a fun little park :) great video sick tres for sure i really liked the follow up on that too gonna try some stuff out. Do these LPs skate good? Also your stash is looking amazing man! Much love
It's a lazy/pressure 360. If you're not using the front foot to flip it, it's a pressure flip. Like you said its still a tre, but it's definitely a pressure flip
this is a cool video for sure man but there is a guy called ellis frost who skates local to me in the uk and his tray flip is out of this world check out his content makes some crazy flip trick variations. just wanted to put his name out there since he has about same amount subs as you. Both of your channels deserve more i feel like you both make cool content if you checked his stuff out really think his tricks would be something anyone would find fun to watch.
"pressure" tre-flips wierd me out sometimes.. half the time i feel like the board did a heelflip, the other i wonder how you keep it under you without front foot friction. like if i lean back any further ima manual into it.
Lots of people don't use their front foot. Ellis Frost (same name as his channel) did a video with one foot on the nose and one foot on the tail to demonstrate the front foot isn't needed.
I still can't believe there is a style of shirt known all around the world as "wife beater"... in Australia we call them "tank tops" because we are politically correct
do most of the powell team use that powell grip? just curious because that would really fuck me up using the same graphic on the grip as it is on the bottom XD
