EJazzle, when i try my kickflips i try to flick them like on a skateboard but the board sometimes flys away from me or only flips half way. when i try to push it down instead of flicking it, the board goes straite down in the water _________________

ZachTullier2, put your foot a little more towards the outside of the board and see if it helps. _________________ tww 4 life

ZachTullier2, no dont try to just mob. just keep trying to flick it. just change your footplacement till you get the right rotation.
