TRICK TECHNIQUE: when doing some tricks that don't require you to spin, keep your shoulders straight and try to stay balanced. It will help to keep the board from moving under your feet in directions you don't want.
#instacollage kickflips are sort of easy once you get then down. YOU NEED TO KNOW HOW TO DO AN OLLIE FOR THIS. A kickflips is pretty much an Ollie but with the board flips so that your griptape side faces the ground and comes back up, not like the pop shuvit where the board spins underneath you. Look at the picture for a better example. To do this trick, you first set up for an Ollie, then you do the same foot drag motion in a Ollie, but this time, drag it off to the right side of the board an give it kind of a flick it a push down. This will help with the flip. If you are unsure look at the picture (taken from /search?q=kickflip&client=safari&hl=en&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=GpCRUYr5FcKfyQHiloCgDQ&ved=0CAgQ_AUoAQ&biw=320&bih=504#) if you are unsure, look at the pictures steps. Good luck :)
The Ollie is extremely easy. You use the Ollie in some tricks to get a pop of the ground. An Ollie is when the board lifts off the ground, levels out in mid air, and you land it straight. To do this trick, you will want to be able to ride your skateboard around comfortably. When doing an Ollie, have your front foot right behind the nails on your board or move it down a little towards the center. Your back foot should be right on the back of your skate board almost hanging off. First, you will push down hard with your back foot to get the pop. Second, you will drag your front towards the front of your board to level it out. Then, try to land balanced. Good luck learning:) ask any questions if have some link is in bio
Pop shuvit are a pretty easy and fun. To do this trick, I suggest you have your Ollie's Down and you are comfortable just riding around. In a pop shuvit, your board kicks up and spins under your feet until you stop it. In order to do this, you must pop your board up (push hard on your back foot down, kinda like an Ollie) and flick it with your top and bottom feet in opposite directions (bottom goes left, top goes right, or the other way around). This will allow the board to become airborne and by flicking it, the board will make that rotation. Good luck on Learning. Ask me any questions if you have any:) link is in my bio
