Skateology: backside flip (1000 fps slow motion)

This is my Skateology video for backside flips, also known as:
backside kickflip
backside 180 kickflip

These clips were filmed at 1,000 frames per second with a Redlake N3 high speed camera at 1280x720 resolution. Skaters include myself (Adam Shomsky), Brian Martin (at 0:25), Matt Hartzel (at 0:51), and Jesse Strachan (ender).

I learn more from these videos than from any how to video I've ever watched

@180sk8180 Yeah, some tricks that look smooth and clean in real-speed look so sketchy and sloppy in slow motion. You really have to land your tricks clean to make them look decent in slow motion.

Still one of my fav tricks of all time. When executed perfect over gaps or obstacles it’s badass. Hard af for me tho!

[freeflaminginfinite]

Still my fave track of all time. Simplicity and style! Wack track though...

Fullscreen + HD + popcorn = Totally awesome!
Your slowmotion videos are SO cool, dude! Subbed...

the shimmering grip on the board looks so sick in 1000 fps

@sdotmadden Yeah, you can see the video on my channel. It's called IDT slow motion video competition: skateboarding

@JONSKATEVIDS I'm not sure what kind of blank it was but it was crap. It broke within about two weeks. A friend got me a cheap complete deck from where he works after my board was stolen while I was filming one day.

[Trebek]

no wonder I can't do backside flips, these guys jump so high!!!!

I love how they all kick out super forward with a flick when if u look closely its not needed
