i just started finger boarding, and i see a lot of comments saying that they can’t even flip the board. i was having trouble with that aswell. the way i got the hang of it was by doing it on my bed or on a couch. that way the board can flip back easier because there’s less to stop the board from flipping. i sat in my bed and did this for a few hours, it really helped. once you get the hang on it then you can move to a table. doing wallys also really help getting the motion (plus they’re fun asf).

Love the tip for learning the Ollie by flipping it all the way over. I’ve been struggling with consistent ollies I’m gonna practice that

As someone who started fingerboarding recently I love Andy’s videos as he makes it clear that tricks will be hard to learn

*Back-foot impossible hack:* For me, the easiest way (and the most authentic/realistic way in my opinion) to somewhat consistently land a back foot impossible, is to first line up the tip of your front finger near the top edge of the middle of the board, and your back finger placed the same position as your front finger is, except your back finger is in the pocket of the tail of the board. (Board-ception MonkaW)

Do not go too far or too low, but if you feel the need to adjust, try experimenting by shifting your front finger wherever you might feel like you would set the trick (In mention to the second step). Second, you need to scoop your back finger into shuv-it motion and curl your finger (literally curl it) and try to dig under or wrap your finger around the pocket or tail of the board while in the air.

If you feel like the board didn’t pop high enough, try to put and/or set your mind into picturing yourself doing a tre-flip, but instead, physically attempt a back foot impossible, that way, you are tricking your brain into scooping your board faster, and popping the board higher, while wrapping and curling your back finger around the pocket and tail of the board.

Moral of the story, sometimes, picturing or imagining yourself doing a different trick that is in a similar motion as the trick you are actually about to attempt might help you get the board in motion better. I hope this helps, and have a great day! Go shred! 😎🤙
