thats not a bigspin.. you're doing a bs 3 shuv with a fs body varial.. spin your body the same way you spin the board... and as for the kickys... looks like you need to tuck that back leg and just keep tryin them.. you got the rotation goin but it keeps hittin that back foot..

I know I will get flamed for this but heck, personally I think your kicky looks just dandy, just keep practicing. The board might be the problem, looks like it is flying off rotation from the wind, but again just MO.

I like the way your kickflips look. The only thing keeping you from landing it is that your back foot keeps catching the board too early. Pull it up a little bit more and you'll be stickin them no problem.

nate_, if that was the only day u where trying them a year ago, im surprised ur not stompin them already. your probably afew attemtps away from landing them.

thanks for the comments...i havent ridden since that day, so im pumped to get back out there...i was also using a huge ass kharma, and those arent the best for riding, let alone kickflips... im getting a new board this year, so hopefully ill be stompin em soon.
