Kickflip Catch Tip.
« on: April 18, 2010, 02:46:25 PM »
*This will only help if you can already kickflip.*
 Try placing you back foot towards the pocket of the tail, as soon in the pictures. Kickflip as you normally would. It may feel a little awkward at first, but keep testing it. I got some rally nice catches doing them this way, you should to.

I've always done them like that, if you put it over where he said not to, I don't know it just feels like there's more effort involved. And I'm a lazy person, so.

there is definatly more balance in ollie, but with the pocket you get a better pop and catch (or at least i do)
