360 flips (Skateboarding)

[Crow]

So, for everyone who skates out there, have any tips? I can get the board to get about 270 and occasionally i'll spin the whole thing. Maybe i just need to practice more but i was wondering if anybody had anything that would help. Thanks.

lol rollerblading...

anyways

yeaaaaaaa, 3flips is mainly about the scoope.

as said in stefans trick tips.

you wanna set ur frontfoot at a bit of an angle (i do, so does stefan janoski)

and make sure your scoping ur tail up real good....it takes lottts of time and patients to learn.

you really wanna jump over it as well as you can when your first learning too.

[seemeski]

ive found that jumping foward helps. so like if your riding foward, then jump to the right if your regular. so you end up like a foot over to the side

Hahaha, now im spinning it in a full 360 but only half a kickflip... Oh well, practice makes perfect.

yeah 3 flips are sooooooooooooooo ANNOYING!!!! Like at the end of this summer i had them down really really good for like 2 weeks. But lost them somehow(i blame it on ym board getting shitty.) But anyways, to do them its all about the back foot. You have to scoop that board right around nice and quick with your big toe. U give it a little flip with your front foot. But very little, nothing like a kickflip. THe frontfoot is more to guide it then flip it.

But i believe 3 flips are just about repitition. It took me a damn long time to get that trick. Just practise......... alot. Skateboarding can get very annoying at times because it's so damn hard. But with time tricks like that will just come to you one day out of nowhere.

Yeah, skating is really hard, at least for me that is.

 

[Leckett]

i love tre's but mats right its all about the scoop. gota scoop that back foot to make it come around.

ya man i know people say this all the time, but in this case especially just practice. nothing anyone says here will help you land a 3 flip, so just go out and practice. i remember the first time i landed a 3 flip, i took probably over 300 attempts. so just practice it.
