To do a darkside grind set up in a kickflip stance. Like all grinds start heading towards what ever you are going to try it on, with an angle. When you think you are close enough to your rail, ledge, etc. you want to do a kick flip, but don’t kick it as hard as you would for a kickflip (you only want half of the rotation). At the same time sweep your back foot just a little bit behind you (you want your board to turn 90 degrees). You also want to turn your body 90 degrees. Once you see that you board has done half of a flip and rotated 90 degrres and you have turned 90 degrees, catch the board with your feet . Your front foot should land on the bottom side of your nose and your back foot should land on the bottom side of your tail. Land with the rail as close to the middle of the board as you can. When you reach the end of the rail twist your body 90 degrees, then tap the heel side edge of the nose with your toes to start fliping it. Once the board has rotated 90 degrees and flipped half way catch it with your feet and ride away.
The laser flip is like a tre flip, but you do a heelflip instead of a kick flip. You set up your front foot like you would for a heelflip (just a little closer towards the nose), and your back foot like you would for a 360 pop shuv-it. As soon as you ollie sweep your front foot back like you would for a360 pop shuv-it, and hit the left part of your nose like you would for a heelflip (make sure you do this at the same time). Also while doing the heelflip part make sure you don’t hit the nose to hard, because you want more of a spin than a flip on your board. Once the board has done a 360 spin and has done one whole flip catch the board with your feet and ride away.
The hardflip is a kickflip and a frontside shuv it mixed together. The stance is almost the same as a kickflip, you just need to have your back heel hanging of the the tail a little bit. To hardflip you want to kickflip and do a frontside shuv it at the same time (the frontside shuv it is the same as a normal pop shuv it, but in stead of sweeping your back foot behind you, you want to sweep it in front of you). You just want the board to do a 180 degree spin. Once the board has done its 180 degree spin and has flipped on time catch the board with your feet, and ride away.
To Casper get your feet in to a kick flip stance. Then do a kick flip but don’t kick as hard as you would to do a kick flip. You only want to get half the rotation of a kick flip. You want to catch the board wheen its up side down (the griptape should be facing the ground and the graphic should be facing up). Catch the board with your front foot in the middle of the under side of the board and your back foot on the tail on the top of your board (the griptape). You only want the tail to be touching the ground. To get out of the casper jump up and flick your foot up.
The stance for 360 pop shuv it and the pop shuv it are almost the same, you just want to have your front foot a little bit above the middle of your board. After you ollie you want to bring your back foot backwards in a sweeping motion like you would for a pop shuv it. Once the board does a 360 you catch it with your feet and land.
To do a tre flip (360 flip) put your front foot like you would for a kickflip and put your back foot on your tail, right where the board starts to incline. Make sure your toes on your back foot are hanging of the board. Then you want to scoop the board with your back foot (like you would for a 360 pop shuv it), and with your front foot give the board a light tap like you would for a kickflip (but lighter). You want more of a spin on your board rather than a flip. Then when you see the board come around you want to stop it with your front foot, then just put your back foot on, and ride away.
To impossible put your back foot on your tail so your heel is kinda hanging off and put your front foot up by the truck bolts with your heal hanging of a little bit so its easy to get it out of the way. Then you push down and forward with your back foot( like in a sweeping motion) and move you front foot out of the way. Keep pushing your back foot forward until the board goes all the way around your foot. Then put your front foot back on.
To finger flip you have your back foot on the tail and your front foot in the middle or just behind the middle of your board. First you ollie then grab the nose of your board, then flip the board with your hand. Make sure you move your feet out of the way. Then hope fully land back on the board.
The heel flip is some what like the kick flip, just a little different. To do a heel flip put your back foot on the tail so only three fourths of your foot is accualy on your board. Put your front foot by the truck bolts, with your toes hanging off the side of the board. Then slide your front foot up to the nose of your board towards so your heel hits the corner, so your board flips the opposite way of a kick flip. Then you catch the board with your feet.
To no comply put your back foot on your tail and your front foot on your nose. Slide your front foot of the your nose and plant it on the ground. At the same time push down with your back foot (like you would for an ollie). This will make your board pop up a little bit. Then catch your board with your front knee. Then hop up with your front foot (wich should still be on the ground). Then on your back down to Earth put your front foot back on your board.
