Answer 1

ooo i love when girls try to skate  =)   haha im not good at explaining things but to do a kickflip you need to be able to ollie. doing a kickflip is similair. you wanna put you back foot on the end of the board, and put your front foot on the side. if your in that position and you pop it, the board will spin. after you learn how to do that, practice staying above the board so that you can land it. hope that helped in any way, and good luck!

yeah that is called an ollie. What you do is quickley pop the board by pusheing really hard on the tail. The slide your front foot up/across the board then bring your knees up to your chest, then you land it by guiding with your front foot down, but keeping your back foot also on the board....hope this helps.  I had troubles to but I'm now wwayy past that :)

its called a kickflip,what you do is setup with your back foot on the tail and your front foot about 4 inches behind the front bolts tilted towards the nose.then you pop the tail down and flick your front foot up and off the left side of the nose(that will get it to flip).for trick tips on the kickflip go to skateboard-city.com and how2skate.com

Answer 5

Like a kickflip? first put the foot that you push with on the tail and the other foot almost parallel to the edges of your skateboard, almost straight, then pop but as your foot reaches the noce of your board flick it out right where the curve of the board and the nose meets
