Hello Tom, I’ve been rollerblading for 25 years now and started skateboarding right when I turned 40. It’s a great experience doing both sports, just like having two kids who are different but you love them equally. After learning to ollie in both stances, I will use your tutorials to learn new tricks. You are doing a great job explaining, keep it up!🛹🔥

u right, i’ve never thought of flicking my heel flips with the toe

Hey Tom, just wanna say I landed my first heelflip yesterday using your tips. I've never felt this happy for landing a trick😁

[willdolliver]

The tip about flicking with the toe made the big difference for me. I always flick with my heel!😂 this was a great tutorial! Keep up the good work!

[Ruperth]

I like how you teach the "lean", most trick tips don't do this and its the most important part of the tips

I just realized that the toe pointing downwards was really the driving force in doin heelflip.
Since it was the first flip trick I learned. I just do it little different than most because my front foot position is in a kickflip position! Dont know maybe other skater do it too.
Bro U really got great talent in observing how skateboarding works and teaching it clearly to us audiences.
Thank you Tom! ❤❤

P.S. Do a Impossible Tutorial next please!

Just did my first heelflip in over 15 years! Closer to 18 years actually. Thanks for all the helpful tips

Damn, just changed my whole perspective on heelflips. Everytime I would land one, it would be a no popped heelflip but i think it was cause i was more focused on flicking with the heel. Definitely gonna try to be more toe oriented next time i try them.

Thanks so much for this video, it’s taken me about 6 months to get the heel flip consistent but your video and a lot of practice has paid off . Thanks again from Bristol UK

I heelflipped my way for 20 years and had no clue you didn't use your heel. But this makes sense because when I frontside heel I tend to scrape the side of my ankle. Thanks for sharing this video.

You are my favorite person on the internet for these. Please keep going.

[davohollin]

I never thought I would ever learn to heelflip cos I just couldn't understand how it was even possible. Your video and a few go's later and I've landed y first ones. Thanks so much! Your tutorials are the best!

Hey Tom I hope things are going well with your surgery. The heel flip tutorial helped me a lot especially with the back foot pop in the middle. Now I’m able to do it with confidence. The front foot flicking with the toes was key. Thanks man

[stoenchu]

Tutorials are great! Cant wait for FS flip and 360 flip

[BM-dltb]

[julienmertuk]
