Why Your Tre Flip Goes Behind You

Tre flips again... This is what seems to be the most common problem of all given the amount of videos i'm sent with the same exact issue.

I for real think the tre flip is the most beautiful trick I’ve ever seen

[graalcloud]

I have a problem with my tre flips, where I spin it great, it rotates fully, and I catch it with my front foot at the correct angle. But then my back foot is never anywhere near the board when it comes around. For whatever reason I can't seem to put enough force into the scoop and simultaneously bring my foot back to the board. If I commit to bringing my foot back, I don't get enough scoop and vice versa.

Bro I swear these videos always come out exactly when I need them

[Pavlovlovlov]

the real difficulty is weight distribution. It's like you have to put all of your weight in the back foot, is super weird. Thanks to you i've landed a few but its so difficult to be consistent

[vecchioutente]

Thank you sooo much! I landed perfect Tre Flip today, all thanks to your tip. I just gotta have the weight on the backfoot. Thanks again.

[vecchioutente]

I was strugglin with Tre Flips so hard today and I was so pissed off I almost snapped my board

[DashiSmash]

If you freezeframe at 3:18 it looks like a bail, but then you somehow pull your backfoot around. Impressive.

I stuck a tre flip again yesterday after 2 years of one footing tres. Working hard to break my stupid habit, this vid helped alot thanks 🙏🏼

im leaning as far back as i can and it still goes behind me

[josephsantana]

Seems like no matter how much I lean back I still have this issue. Sometimes I'll get the oddball where it just works and stays perfectly under me, but the problem is nothing feels different about how I did the trick so I dont know how to repeat it when it just randomly works. I lean back and put weight on my back foot to the point that it feels uncomfortable and not totally stable and the board will still want to go behind me. So frustrating.

Mine goes in front of me. This is because most tutorials suggest to concentrate body weight in a back foot. That’s true but while doing so you still need to be aligned in a centre, your head should actually follow your front arm.

[elkiwi]

do one about why backside flips go behind you. Sometimes it's like que board sticks to the floor and doesn't move. I think it's because of delamination or the tail wearing off

[fishthatdrounds]

when i try tre's I can't get the board to fully flip most times. But my biggest problem worse than that is I cannot for the life of me is keep my shoulders straight. Every time I try a tre flip my shoulders just want to turn

[bigclint]

Literally had this problem yesterday. Thank you!

[aiden]

Thank you 🙏 I’ve been landing on the nose for 2 weeks now

[ΜαριοςΠαρρας]

Could you do a "why you cant land your first laser flip"? Because i need some help on it

[csIndigo]

I swear this guy is watching me while I am starting a new trick

[gcode]

I have the opposite issue- have them on lock but have broken so many fresh boards at the tail from pushing the tre too far in front of me and landing with my back foot on the tail.. so frustrating.

[pistopit]

I had the oposite problem, tre flip going to much in front of me. This is because most tutorials suggest to lean back. In my opinion this is wrong. You should remain centered over the board. I got it fixed but my biggest issue I cannot fix so far is the back foot landing on the ground before board finished the rotation, so I only catch it with front foot. Any tip how I could work on this problem?
